Field trip to our long-term soil erosion monitoring site as part of our seminar "spatio-temporal ecosystem services analysis and assessment". Thanks to Dr. Bastian Steinhoff-Knopp for the insights on measuring and modelling soil erosion control! #Studying #Teaching #SoilErosion #EcosystemServices

Exploring the effect of #pollen on human #health under #climatechange and #urbanization at this year's Night Out with Science at @unihannover.bsky.social, including pollen symptome mapping, miscroscope observations and a pollen memory. @nadjakabisch.bsky.social #research #education

Phygeo delegation at the 6th workshop of our @selinaproject.bsky.social, hosted by the university of #Trento, Italy, under the theme "Evidence-based decision making in the public sector".

From September 22 to October 2, our department hosted this year’s Summer School together with Yamagata University. Prof. Lopez and ten students from Japan explored Hannover, joined a workshop on Environmental Justice, and visited the Harz region, including Goslar and the Border Museum in Sorge.

In early September Physical Geography students joined a field excursion on “Green-Blue Landscapes of Central Germany,” exploring Leipzig’s urban development, floodplain forest, lignite mining, and urban greening, concluding with a visit to the Bastei in Saxon Switzerland. Here are a few impressions:

Celebrating this year's #graduates from our #studyprogrammes B.Sc. of Geography and M. Sc. Landscape sciences, with presentations of selected #theses and drinks with family and friends🥂🎓 We wish our students all the best and success in the future!

Great start for the UMEX-HOPE project at the kick-off meeting with partners from TU Berlin, TU Braunschweig, TiHo, UMG & GEO-NET! PhyGeo is involved in modeling mosquito habitats & supporting stakeholder integration into health-oriented urban planning. 🌍🏙️⚕️ #UMEXHOPE #ClimateChange #UrbanClimate

Researchers, practitioners and other experts came together during the 2nd German #CommunityofPractice meeting to discuss the implementation of #EcosystemServices, #NaturalCapital and #biodiversity research into decision making #research #practice #experts #network

The Landscape System Analysis project in Northern Finnland took students from Hannover, Joensuu and Tartu to boreal and subarctic regions. There they collected data with UAVs, TLS, GNSS and vegetation surveys. The results will be analyzed during this winter semester.

It's time to appreciate the #PostDocs in our @phygeo-luh.bsky.social team. Of course, not only during the PostDoc Apprecation Week, but all year round 👍 paw-germany.de @unihannover.bsky.social

Getting to know colleagues and planning next steps in the new @green-talent.bsky.social project at the kick-off meeting in Valetta, #Malta! We are looking forward to the upcoming years with fruitful #exchanges! #research #climatechange #biodiversity

As part of the Bachelor’s programme in Physical Geography, the second semester students explored glacial and anthropogenic landscapes around Hanover and Schleswig-Holstein! The excursion provided the opportunity to observe and apply previously acquired knowledge. Here are some insights:
