Understanding extreme marine events and natural hazards in Europe GEOMAR coordinates two joint projects of the now launched third research mission of the German Marine Research Alliance and participates in two others Monitoring and Predicting Marine Biological Hazards Alfred Wegener Institute to coordinate new joint project for the German Marine Research Alliance Third DAM research mission launched Under the short title mareXtreme, around 150 scientists are researching strategies for dealing with extreme marine events and natural hazards - thus addressing highly topical, socially relevant research issues. DFG Priority Program “Tropical Climate Variability & Coral Reefs” (SPP 2299) now on YouTube The DFG Priority Program "Tropical Climate Variability & Coral Reefs" (SPP 2299) is launching its own YouTube channel with a video on the "Challenges & Aims". Full Steam Ahead for the Ocean Decade with an Expanded National Committee New members and ambassadors for the German Committee for the UN Ocean Decade commence their work Launch of the citizen science project “Into the Deep” The "Into the Deep" project, funded by the European Union as part of the Erasmus+ program, was presented at MARUM. This is a citizen science project in which citizens help researchers to analyze image material to answer scientific questions. It is based on high-resolution images from the deep sea taken during scientific expeditions. Researchers often lack the time to comprehensively analyze image material. The initiators of the project see this as an opportunity to actively involve interested "citizens" in the processing of scientific questions. The central tool here is the web-based image analysis tool BiiGLE-PARTY. Previous 1 … 12 13 14 … 38 Next Share this page Newsletter Always up to date with the DAM newsletter.
