Generating Actionable Climate Information in Support of Climate Adaptation and Mitigation
Climate change is under way in full extent, adversely affecting more and more facets in nature, society and economy. The observations and the projections of these changes are increasingly important to consider in long-term planning, given the need to adapt to the multi-sectoral climate impacts that can be anticipated. In most cases, it is the information on the local scale in a user-oriented way that is most relevant in this context. Over recent years, many countries and organisations have set up climate services such as factsheets, brochures, web-tools, data to enable downstream applications and to form a decision support basis for climate action planning (e.g., KNMI14 in the Netherlands, UKCP18 in the UK, CH2018 in Switzerland, ‘Climate Change in Australia’, NCA4 in the US, Copernicus Climate Data Store / C3S).

Argovian Sun
During the course of his anything but linear career, characterized by recurring excursions into other cultural areas including music, film and theater, painting has remained the most constant element in Andreas Doblers activities. In his youth, he was strongly influenced by pop music, psychedelic culture and its ties to the neo-surrealism of the 60s and 70s, as well as science fiction and comic aesthetics. He continues today to mine both media-oriented and popular culture, his taste for fantasy art and culture, ordinary subjects, the phenomena of pop culture and the aesthetic fringes of art having proven an abundant source for his figurative painting. In the 80s Doblers pictures often depict...

Die Zukunft auf dem Land
Die Vorstellungen und Ideen, wie menschliche Lebenswelten in Zukunft aussehen werden, befinden sich in erhöhter Bewegung. Dabei sind es nicht mehr nur Großstädte und Metropolen, die als Projektionsflächen zukünftiger Entwicklungen dienen - sondern zunehmend auch rurale Räume. In ihnen verdichten sich die brisanten Themen der Gegenwart: von Demographie und Daseinsvorsorge über Klimakrise, Energiegewinnung und Ernährung bis hin zu Migrationsbewegungen und technischen Transformationen. Zugespitzt formuliert: Die Zukunft entscheidet sich auf dem Land. Die Beiträger*innen untersuchen die damit einhergehenden (medialen, mentalen und materialen) Neukonzipierungen des Ruralen als Raum der Zukunft in Geschichte und Gegenwart.
On the Frontiers of the Indian Ocean World
This is the first interdisciplinary history of Lake Tanganyika and of eastern Africa's relationship with the wider Indian Ocean World during the nineteenth century. Philip Gooding deploys diverse source materials, including oral, climatological, anthropological, and archaeological sources, to ground interpretations of the better-known, European-authored archive in local epistemologies and understandings of the past. Gooding shows that Lake Tanganyika's shape, location, and distinctive lacustrine environment contributed to phenomena traditionally associated with the history of the wider Indian Ocean World being negotiated, contested, and re-imagined in particularly robust ways. He adds novel contributions to African and Indian Ocean histories of urbanism, the environment, spirituality, kinship, commerce, consumption, material culture, bondage, slavery, Islam, and capitalism. African peoples and environments are positioned as central to the histories of global economies, religions, and cultures.
