Prof. Julian Klaus and Prof. Lothar Schrott attended this year's Gordon Research Conference on "The Catchment Science: Interactions of Hydrology, Biology and Geochemistry“. Julian Klaus acted as chair and Lothar Schrott presented a scientific poster with current results from the DFG HyPerm project focusing on the hydrological significance of high-Andean periglacial environments. The conference with about 140 participants from PhD students to senior professors took place from June 18th to 22nd in New Hampshire and was filled with exciting lectures, lively discussions, workshops and a lot of fun. 

Researchers from the RG Schrott visited the General Assembly of the European Geoscience Union 2023 in Vienna to present their current research.

The research group team "rolling stones" successfully won second place at the institutes Kubb tournament on Wednesday! After competing against various teams such as the research group of social geography, the student council and others, our team was finally beaten in the final by the "earth watchers" from the research group of Malenovský. Congratulations to them! We are looking forward to try again next year.

PhD student Melanie Stammler reports on a week in Bergen with the Erasmus Lecturer Mobility, where she gave a Lunch Lecture on "Andean Rock Glaciers and Swedish Aeolian Dunes" and took the opportunity to exchange with the Geomatics and Remote Sensing group, the students and the whole department.

Good Early Warning Systems require more than measurements and warnings - Prof. Lothar Schrott at Deutschlandfunk Kultur, 23.05.2023.

A group of researchers including Rainer Bell (GIUB) and Michael Dietze (University of Göttingen) is investigating whether seismic sensors can help to detect floods like the Ahr flood almost two years ago and warn the public in time.
