CEN researches the Earth system, climate + sustainability @uni-hamburg.de. It is home to the Cluster of Excellence #CLICCS. As of 2026 CEN will be renamed to Earth and Society Research Hub (ESRAH). Outreach keeps you posted. http://uhh.de/cen-imprint
🇧🇷 “Belém is a Signal.”
At #COP30 in the Amazon, sociologist Eduardo Gonçalves Gresse from #CLICCS re-visits his home country. He reflects on what this COP means, Brazil’s renewed climate role, and how the Amazon embodies both vulnerability and hope. 👉 www.cliccs.uni-hamburg.de/de/about-cli...

Europe’s #heatwaves are not only getting hotter — they’re becoming more chaotic.
A new #NatureCommunications study by Goratz Beobide-Arsuaga (ESRAH, Univ. Hamburg) shows how soil moisture fuels extremes in Central and Northern Europe.

☁️ 🔍 Understanding #clouds better is not just a scientific curiosity – it’s key to predicting our climate futures. Meter-scale sims by Rafael Pistor and Juan Pedro Mellado explain why turbulence within the boundary layer increases with sedimentation. 🧪 agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/...

☀️ 💨 More water vapor, more trapped sunlight, a hotter planet: a lesser-known climate feedback explained. Shortwave water vapor feedback is real. A new CLICCS study shows: The atmosphere absorbs sunlight unevenly across the spectrum. 🧪 www.nature.com/articles/s41... #climate #science

In Trinidad & Tobago, climate change isn’t seen as a major issue – despite coral bleaching and sediment changes. Locals say it’s just a political topic. 🏝️ Beate Ratter @uni-hamburg.de researches small island resilience. More about her work: www.cliccs.uni-hamburg.de/about-cliccs...

Resolution matters: Extreme temperatures in e.g. Indian cities can be underestimated by up to 10°C, a paper by @lukasbrunner.bsky.social‬ shows. High-res climate models (<10 km) reveal that important details about extremes are hidden at lower resolutions. iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1...

🌡️ Europe’s #heat extremes won’t stop, even at net-zero. Each year of delay locks in hotter and more frequent extremes for centuries. Mediterranean heatwaves could even be 30x more likely if the Paris Agreement is reached ten years late. 🧪 iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1... @edualastrue.bsky.social
