Talk of Prof. Yukio Isozaki: A really inconvenient truth of global warming, 18 June 2018, 15h
A really inconvenient truth of global warming Modern-day global warming appears so dangerous for our future that many geologists/paleontologists claimed for an analogy from the past. Nonetheless, is the on-going warming explained solely by human activity? This talk explores an alternative possible cause of global warming/cooling, not on the earth but in the universe. The […]

Paleobilogy MSc student publishes on climatology
Nussaïbah B. Raja, a master’s student in paleobiology, has published an article in Meteorology and Atmospheric Physics in collaboration with Olgu Aydin. In her study, she analyzes precipitation variability in Mauritius between 1981 and 2010. She has demonstrated that the frequency of extreme precipitation events in the region has increased.

Effects of climate change in alpine systems
Researchers led by Prof. Manuel Steinbauer from the Chair of System Paleobiology at Friedrich-Alexander University Erlangen-Nuremberg (FAU), together with scientists from eleven countries, have succeeded in proving for the first time that species diversity on mountain peaks across Europe is increasing and that this is happening at an ever-faster rate. They have now published their […]
