A Practical Guide to Atmospheric Simulation Chambers
This open access title presents atmospheric simulation chambers as effective tools for atmospheric chemistry research. State-of-the-art simulation chambers provide unprecedented opportunities for atmospheric scientists to perform experiments that address the most important questions in air quality and climate research. The book covers technical details about chamber preparation and practical guidelines on their usage, while also delivering relevant historical and contextual information. It not only serves as a key publication for knowledge transfer within the simulation chamber research community, but it also provides the global atmospheric science community with a unique resource that outlines best practice for the operation of simulation chambers. The authors summarize the latest advances in chamber interoperability and standard protocols in order to provide the research community and the next generations of scientists with a unique technical reference guide for the use of simulation chambers. The volume will be of great interest to researchers and graduates working in the fields of Atmospheric and Environmental Sciences.
Climate Change
The second edition of this acclaimed text has been fully updated and substantially expanded to include the considerable developments (since publication of the first edition) in our understanding of the science of climate change, its impacts on biological and human systems, and developments in climate policy. Written in an accessible style, it provides a broad review of past, present and likely future climate change from the viewpoints of biology, ecology, human ecology and Earth system science. It will again prove to be invaluable to a wide range of readers, from students in the life sciences who need a brief overview of the basics of climate science, to atmospheric science, geography, geoscience and environmental science students who need to understand the biological and human ecological implications of climate change. It is also a valuable reference text for those involved in environmental monitoring, conservation and policy making.

Climate Change 2021 – The Physical Science Basis
The Working Group I contribution to the Sixth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) provides a comprehensive assessment of the physical science basis of climate change. It considers in situ and remote observations; paleoclimate information; understanding of climate drivers and physical, chemical, and biological processes and feedbacks; global and regional climate modelling; advances in methods of analyses; and insights from climate services. It assesses the current state of the climate; human influence on climate in all regions; future climate change including sea level rise; global warming effects including extremes; climate information for risk assessment and regional adaptation; limiting climate change by reaching net zero carbon dioxide emissions and reducing other greenhouse gas emissions; and benefits for air quality. The report serves policymakers, decision makers, stakeholders, and all interested parties with the latest policy-relevant information on climate change. Available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

Strukturwandel im Klimawandel
Der Klimawandel ist in vollem Gang und lässt durch die Erderwärmung Gletscher schmelzen und Polkappen dünner werden. Der Meeresspiegel hebt sich dadurch. Deiche müssen erhöht werden, und in Kürze müssen erste Inseln evakuiert werden. Wir können den Klimawandel verlangsamen, wenn wir beherzt einen Strukturwandel beginnen, indem wir mit grünem Strom alle fossilen Rohstoffe durch Wasserstoff und synthetische Rohstoffe ersetzen. Dies kann die Metallerzeugung und die chemische Industrie Kohlenstoffdioxid-neutral werden lassen, ebenso die Mobilität.
Gefühlte Wahrheiten
Wir befinden uns in einem Zeitalter überlappender Krisen: Corona Pandemie, die Invasion Russlands in die Ukraine, steigende Inflationsraten, sich verschärfender Klimawandel, Gasknappheit. Wie sollen wir mit diesen Krisen umgehen? Wie können wir entscheiden, was stimmt, welche Maßnahmen wirkungsvoll und gerechtfertigt sind und was moralisch geboten ist? Wo werden wir Opfer von „Fake News“ und wo nutzen Populisten und Populistinnen die Angst der Menschen aus? In diesen unübersichtlichen Zeiten wächst das Misstrauen in die Politik. Die Fairness der Wirtschaft wird bezweifelt und die Unabhängigkeit der Wissenschaft in Frage gestellt. Über vertiefende Einblicke in die Leistungsfähigkeit der Wissenschaft und in die intuitive Wahrnehmung von komplexen Zusammenhängen veranschaulicht der Autor Wege aus Überforderung, Angst und Verunsicherung. Zudem soll mit diesem Buch mehr Zutrauen in die eigene Gestaltungsfähigkeit bei der Bewältigung kollektiver Herausforderungen geweckt werden.
