Chiara Nettelnstroth successfully defended her Master's thesis titled "Arctic Sea Ice Freezing Rate as an Early Predictor for European 2-Metre Winter Temperatures". In her research, she explored the connection between the Arctic Freezing Rate - measured as the change in the sea ice edge following the seasonal minimum in sea ice extent - and winter temperatures in Europe. Congratulations, Chiara!

Weaker ocean circulation could cost trillions

A major motor for the global climate is beginning to falter: a massive system of ocean currents called the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), which also includes the Gulf Stream. As a new study conducted by experts at the University of Hamburg’s Cluster of Excellence for climate...
