At EGU25, we explored this challenge in a short course organized by the EGU “Life-Career Wellness” working group, where scientists shared their experiences (and strategies). In this post, we summarize the main points ...[Read More]

Insight into paleo-environmental and -climatic conditions during the Pleistocene period in Kashmir – An understudied and poorly understood puzzle-piece in the interaction-sphere of the Indian Monsoon and Westerly climate-systems

The Indian subcontinent is situated in Southern Asia, where it projects southwards from the Himalayas into the Indian Ocean. Along the northern border of this subcontinent, the Himalayas – home to the earth’s highest mountains on land – stretch with a length of ~2500 km and a width of 300 km. The stunning mountain ranges of the Himalayas provide a considerable physical barrier for air masses from/ ...[Read More]
