Hunting for historical Adriatic meteotsunamis

Hunting for historical Adriatic meteotsunamis

Before modern instruments, our only clues about past sea events came from written records and folklore. Along the eastern Adriatic coast, stories of sudden floods and “tidal waves” (locally called šćiga) have been passed down for generations. These waves, described as rapid rises and falls of the sea that could flood or empty harbours within …[Read More]

From Particles to the Air We Breathe: Dominik Stolzenburg’s Journey into the Hidden Life of Aerosols

From Particles to the Air We Breathe: Dominik Stolzenburg’s Journey into the Hidden Life of Aerosols

Dr. Dominik Stolzenburg is a chemist in atmospheric physics at TU Wien, specializing in aerosol science and air quality. His work focuses on how ultrafine particles form, transform, and affect both climate systems and human health — especially in cities. Through field measurements, modeling, and data analysis, he explores how human and natural emissions interact, …[Read More]

Google Earth Engine, a pioneer tool for environmental solutions

Google Earth Engine, a pioneer tool for environmental solutions

Since 2018, Google Earth Engine (GEE) has granted free access to various institutions for academic and non-profit scientific use. The goal of this initiative is to process large amounts of satellite imagery exclusively over the internet (cloud). This innovative option enabled thousands of users from around the world to investigate environmental phenomena at varying resolutions, …[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

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 …[Read More]
