This Research Unit (RU) addresses the growing public health concern of accelerated disease burden as a consequence of climate change. So far, there have been very limited concerted efforts by public health
In order to better understand the global coastal systems and the dangers and risks associated with them, it is important to examine the atmosphere, the land, hydrology, the ocean and especially their interactions
This project investigates the role of gravity waves (GWs) in shaping middle atmosphere dynamics under present-day climate conditions. Specifically, it explores how localized GW forcing in Northern Hemisphere
This project investigates how intelligent sponge city technologies can mitigate urban heat islands (UHI) in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. It aims to develop scalable models for climate-resilient urban planning
The EU Horizon 2020 project PolarRES (https://polarres.eu) aims to improve regional climate information to support impact assessments in the Arctic and Antarctic. To this end, high-resolution climate projections
Tropical cyclones, heatwaves and extreme droughts are examples of extreme climate events that are difficult to predict. Climate change has increased the likelihood and severity of such events, and predicting
CLICCS will explore climate change with broad expertise. CLICCS will investigate how the climate changes and how society changes with it, thereby feeding back on climate. Understanding these changes, including
ICON is a flexible, scalable, high-performance modelling framework for weather, climate and environmental prediction that provides actionable information for society and advances our understanding of the
Influences of climate change on urban climate are often investigated in the context of increased values for high temperatures or precipitation extremes. As a consequence, many studies concentrate on the
LAMACLIMA (Output of fully coupled Earth system model simulations for LAMACLIMA: four idealized constant global land-use and high-ambition future mitigation land-use scenarios.)
LAnd MAnagement for CLImate Mitigation and Adaptation (LAMACLIMA) enhances understanding of the coupled effects between climate and land cover/land management (LCLM), informing sustainable land-based adaptation
Two acoustic datasets collected on a frozen shallow freshwater lake during March of 2023 are included. This collection took place over one full week on Portage Lake in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan,
DataWave (https://datawaveproject.github.io/) is an international consortium dedicated to improving our understanding and representation of gravity waves. The DataWave project focuses on enhancing our
The optimal planning of wind energy capacity expansion in the complex terrain of Ecuador requires reliable meteorological datasets. However, a review of existing datasets revealed a lack of adequate, long-term,
