Last week, some of the Climate Modelling group travelled to Reading (UK) to attend the Third International Conference on Subseasonal to Seasonal to Decadal Prediction (S2S2D): Advancing climate predictions from weeks to decades to benefit society.

Plenaries:

Goratz Beobide Arsuaga gave an interview for the September issue of the french science communication magazine Epsiloon. The title of the article translates to Heat waves: Is it the end of the temperate climate?

Europe is facing an unprecedented surge in frequent, long, and severe heatwaves, with the...

A warm welcome to Suna Cho, who started as a PhD student in our group on September 1st, working on Atlantic Decadal Variability. Suna completed her Master’s degree at Seoul National University in South Korea, where she studied the physical oceanography of marginal seas around Korea. Welcome Suna!

Social justice for climate-friendly urban traffic, predicting extreme heat in the Mediterranean, and AI in climate research – these are the topics of the final papers recognized with the Young Climate Scientists Award 2026. From among a host of high-caliber submissions from various disciplines, the...

Finally, the former Institute for Oceanography is moving to the new building "Haus der Erde" (House of Earth), Bundesstraße 57. Our group was among the first to "inaugurate" the fifth floor.
