How would the climate respond to large-scale reforestation projects? 🌍🤔 My new "Behind the Paper" explores why more trees don't always mean more cooling and what this means for global policy. communities.springernature.com/posts/less-i...

Is more always better? Not when it comes to planting trees to cool the climate 🌲🌍 Our new study in @commsearth.nature.com shows that strategic reforestation can achieve the same cooling with half the land www.nature.com/articles/s43... #Reforestation #ScienceforPolicy

Thanks to everyone who stopped by my poster at #EGU25 today! It was great to discuss my research with so many engaged climate scientists and to learn from your questions and insights. P.S. If you are at EGU, you still have the chance to vote for the OSPP if you like :)

Next up, PhD student @norafahrenbach.bsky.social has a poster with mechanistic insights into tropical circulation and hydroclimate responses to forest cover change, showing an interesting competition between surface roughness and energetic effects. Tu 10:45-12:30 doi.org/10.5194/egus... (3/11)

I’m looking forward to EGU next week, where there will be a large representation from the ETH Climate Dynamics group! A 🧵 of all the exciting research our group will be sharing. I’m also looking forward to catching up with everyone going to EGU! (1/11)

At #EGU25, we’re hosting the session "Crowd-solving Problems in Earth Sciences"—a space to tackle common research challenges together. 📅 Thu, 01 May | 🕑 14:00–15:45 CEST | 📍 Room 2.42

Looking forward to presenting the results from our study at #EGU25 in Vienna next week! The rough reality: How forests reshape tropical circulation and hydroclimate 📅 Tue, 29 Apr, | 🕑 10:45–12:30 CEST | 📍 Hall X1, X1.43

How will future afforestation impact the tropical water cycle? 🌲💦 You can find out more in our new preprint egusphere.copernicus.org/preprints/20...

Our initiative was featured in one of the largest Italian newspapers yesterday! In our open letter addressed to the COP29 president (cop29letter.org), we are asking for drastic emission cuts as COP29 risks delegitimising itself otherwise www.corriere.it/pianeta2030/...

We #StandforParis ! Please help us by signing our open letter calling COP29 to commit to drastic emission cuts cop29letter.org
