Hosted by @meteoleipzig.bsky.social @unileipzig.bsky.social @tropos-de.bsky.social , ECO-N research training group funded by @dfg.de
Great lectures by @sebastian-sippel.bsky.social @frediotto.bsky.social @mdebrito.bsky.social @zscheischlerjak.bsky.social and more!
@christianklassert.bsky.social is a valued colleague, and I’m lucky to have the opportunity to collaborate with him as well. I wish you both lots of success in the new group!!!
Wow—what a fantastic group!
@taiscarvalho.bsky.social joined @ufz.de as a visiting PhD student in 2022 and quickly became an essential part of the team. She has now secured a prestigious grant to launch her own research group. A rising star to watch closely! :)

Yesterday, we had the kick-off of our Leipzig Lab project "Climate Discourse": a cool team😉, with a timely topic for the current political "climate".! 🌍💬 @eisioriginal.bsky.social @marckeuschnigg.bsky.social
Last week to apply to our 3-year postdoc position on climate discourses 🌍🔍
We use #NLP to explore how public discourse, extreme events & political action interact. uni-leipzig.b-ite.careers/jobposting/1...
Together with: @marckeuschnigg.bsky.social @eisioriginal.bsky.social
OUT NOW: A fantastic new read for hydrologists 📚: a wrap-up of the Panta Rhei scientific decade of @iahs-aish.bsky.social. Between 2013 and 2022, it explored links between changes in hydrology and society. 🌍 In this paper, Heidi Kreibich and her colleagues present ten years of progress. 👇
This is genius! so creative and also important for how we communicate our science
Interested in exchanging ideas, gaining insights, and exploring best practices for engaging and empowering Early Career Researchers?
Join us for our short course, "Best Practices for ECR Engagement and Empowerment in Research Projects," on Wednesday, April 30, at 16:15 (CEST) at #EGU25.
@egu.eu
I'm quite excited about this project! Apply until 15.04 to be part of the team :)
Even with a photoshopped team member :P
Enjoying the beautiful Leipzig weather with an amazing group! ☀️ Grateful to collaborate with so many talented people! @taiscarvalho.bsky.social @jsodoge.bsky.social @sruti.bsky.social @alessiamatano.bsky.social
@taiscarvalho.bsky.social is mapping national & subnational drought plans 🌍💧—and we need your help!
If you know of official drought plans (especially in non-English-speaking countries), please share them here docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...
Your expertise can help ensure no region is overlooked!
🌍💧 We are organizing a panel discussion on water inequalities with experts on Water Security.

I will be there with @jsodoge.bsky.social and @taiscarvalho.bsky.social presenting our work on NLP for monitoring impacts & water conflicts
"Die Klimakrise muss oberste Priorität auf der politischen Agenda haben, sowohl auf nationaler als auch auf internationaler Ebene. Für die anstehende Bundestagswahl ist da allerdings noch deutlich Luft nach oben", sagt der Klimawissenschaftler Emanuele Bevacqua.

Wäre doch mal schön, wenn wir dazu eine Talkshow hätten, oder @zdfde.bsky.social ?
In Nature Climate Change, we show that a year above 1.5 °C signals that Earth is most probably within the 20-year period that will reach the Paris Agreement limit. @natclimchange.bsky.social
By comparing different text corpora on sustainable agriculture in Germany we found that farmers and the broader society in have very different perceptions of what sustainable agriculture is about. Check our paper here: besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....
🚨 We’ll soon be hiring a 3-year postdoc to join our Leipzig lab on climate discourses 🌍🔍
Our Working group bridges #NLP, social science, and environmental research to explore how climate change, public discourse & political action interact. Stay tuned! @marckeuschnigg.bsky.social
Quite proud of being part of such a team :)
I always felt I was a "weird" scientist, too interdisciplinary.... Until I arrived at the UFZ where that's the norm.
Some days left to apply!
The German Research Foundation has left X and joined Bluesky. Good to see how Bluesky is increasingly becoming the new standard for science communication.
If you don't know which session to submit your work at #EGU25, check the tool developed by @jsodoge.bsky.social
Just paste your abstract and get suggestions :)
Great to see it is being used!!! Once the abstracts are submitted, we will have new functionalities that will make attending #EGU25 easier
I will share it next week :)
4/ We found that smaller-scale impacts were felt across Germany, often ignored in standard databases.
Using diverse data sources, like text, is a step toward capturing the full picture of disaster impacts
3/ Using #NLP, we analyzed thousands of newspaper articles to estimate cascading impacts. This approach lets us capture a broader picture of flood consequences over large areas 📰+🤖
2/ Traditional assessments focus on direct, measurable impacts (e.g. damaged infrastructure, economic loss). But floods cascade across society in ways that conventional methods often miss —indirect and intangible effects like #mentalhealth, tourism losses, or water contamination
