Still time to submit an abstract to our mini-symposium on optimality approaches to vegetation modelling organised by University of Reading (July 18-20). The deadline has been extended to January 17th Sandy Harrison @LabPrentice @karinrebel 👇🏼

IMPORTANT UPDATE: Due to the changing regulations on events in Austria & concerns over high infection rates in Europe, we are moving the date of #EGU22 to 23-27 May. For more information & to seek assistance with regards to this change visit: egu.eu/1QQX5I/ #vEGU22

Prof. Helbing apologizes for offending people; this was never his intention. His slide was supposed to make people think about inappropriate uses of algorithms. He understands now the presentation was insensitive and adapted it, so it can no longer give rise to false impressions.

AVETH Diversity calls for more inclusive teaching at ETH. This is direct support for the Association of Chinese Students and Scholars in Zurich in response to a recent incident of racial insensitivity in the classroom at ETH. aveth.ethz.ch/diversity/incl…

Hey dear community, what summer schools are most exciting (for a PhD student in terrestrial biogeochemistry and modelling)?

📢Join our new group as Scientific Programmer / Data Scientist. You love hacking away with ecosystem models, data assimilarion, and/or machine learning applications in ecosystem science? This is for you! Apply now, we're looking to recruit for August! ohws.prospective.ch/public/v1/jobs…

A very cool chamber technique in Skogaryd that enables to measure CO2 and CH4 ‘along the transect’, namely BRIAN.

Our "10 questions with" interview series continues with Professor Iain Colin Prentice. "You can generally trust the data, but not necessarily the interpretation" research.reading.ac.uk/lemontree/10-q…

Thanks everyone who participated in fieldwork along newly added Gongga elevational transect Wang Han @LabPrentice Sandy Harrison Shengchao Qiao Runxi WANG 王润玺 Xu Huiying Yunke Peng Giulia Mengoli Can’t wait for the fieldwork next year! 🙌

In the last day of March (also 3 month before defense): finishing the last page of first draft of thesis. What an amazing journey in the last three years…finally, it nearly comes to the end.

What an amazing experience in EGU2023! Great to have many discussions and meet many new people.

Well… a heavy thesis 🤨

Very happy to pass my doctoral defense. It has been really a wonderful experience at ETH Zurich in the last three years. Many thanks to my supervisor Nina Buchmann Beni Stocker @LabPrentice and examiner Rossella Guerrieri
