New data, new App! oakern.shinyapps.io/palveg_v2/ Explore vegetation reconstructions 🌲🌳 (pollen- and model-based) for the Last Glacial ❄️ in Europe and see how much they can differ. This affects our perception of Last Glacial landscapes during crucial migration 🚶‍♀️ and extinction events 🦣

🔔🔔New Paper 🔔🔔 Pollen-based REVEALS land-cover reconstructions for Europe during the latter half of the Last Glacial Period essd.copernicus.org/articles/17/... We show that glacial refugia and frequent openings of migration corridors may have played a substantial role human dispersal

Especially the twisted logic of “protecting women” by attacking non-binary individuals always makes me shiver. Distributed by men who literally attack women.

👏 “After one year of the zone, nitrogen dioxide from traffic was lower, GP visits for respiratory illnesses were down by 25% and those for heart problems decreased by 24%”

Analysis of travel-related carbon emissions by physicians and researchers at a university hospital, led by @gebhardtpsych.bsky.social link.springer.com/article/10.1... long story short: - 98% of CO2 from flights - noticeable decrease during and after (!) COVID-19 - lots of room to emit less CO2

🧵1/ Ever thought about the carbon footprint of medical research? We analyzed travel patterns at a German University hospital from 2018 to 2023 and estimated the effect of reduction measures. 💡 [1]: Since Covid-19, researchers travel less. @oliverkern.bsky.social link.springer.com/article/10.1...

The book has been on my reading list due to its popularity - now I’m quite confused by these claims: tapping techniques, mantra recital, and AVOIDANCE of talking about the traumatic event to prevent re-traumatization. If that’s really the gist of it, that’s downright harmful?!

I don't often give hot takes, but this obsession with turning the 1.5C climate target into an annual benchmark & forgetting that global temperature is responding to only 1% of the heat that's being trapped inside the climate system every year is enough to trigger anyone's internal @andrewdessler.com

Introductory course to German bureaucracy: I need a birth certificate for the mandatory registration with my professional body. To get it, I need an online account. To get this, I need an ID-App. To register, I need an online PIN. To get it, I have to PHYSICALLY visit the local citizen office.

Black Friday Deal Alert! Enjoy our current atmospheric CO₂ because we'll never see it this low again!

Interesting approach for EMA.

thanks!

Excited to announce that I will join HESCOR (Human and Earth System Coupled Research) at the University of Cologne next year. I will investigate the impact of climate fluctuations on hunter-gatherer migration (45-15 ka BP) in Europe using a high-resolution Human and Earth system coupled model.

Whenever you need a good laugh, just tell your clients about the fundamental importance of breaks and a balance between stressful and relaxing periods for mental health when you’ve been working for 10 hours straight already. Laugh on the inside, though, please. #ClinPsy #PsySciSky #AcademicSky

I am currently thinking about important aspects to explain the knowledge - action gap in climate change (for a book chapter). Like biases, psychodynamic defense mechanism, polarisation processes. Are there additional ideas out there? #psychscisky #climatesky

Sometimes I go where there’s no internet connection and there’s only one way to look at a blue sky. At other times, I might have a thing or two to say about my research or the world in general - stay tuned. #psychscisky #greensky
