WIVERN Is ESA's 11th Earth Explorer Satellite Mission

  
Satellite image of a massive cyclone over the ocean with an inset image of Earth on the left, centered on Africa. The logo of the European Space Agency (ESA) appears in the top right corner. The WIVERN research project has been selected for the European Space Agency's eleventh Earth Explorer satellite mission. WIVERN will provide the first ever global measurements of winds within clouds. Cathy Hohenegger from the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology is involved in this mission, which is scheduled to launch in the early 2030s.

CELLO: Climate Exploration in Lively Liaison with the Ocean

  
Young researchers stand in front of the entrance to the auditorium on the Bucerius Law School campus. A banner hangs there with the words “CELLO Conference 2025.” From September 16 to 18, 2025, around 220 ocean researchers have met at the CELLO conference organized by the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology. The contributions covered a wide range of spatial scales and disciplines—all with the aim of better understanding the dynamics of the ocean and its influence on the climate.

Climate, Coasts, Complexity: Northern Germany at the Heart of Earth System Modeling

  
Excerpt from a world map showing America, Africa, and Europe. The continents are shown in black, while the ocean is depicted with a blue and white gradient, representing the kinetic energy in the ocean. Many finely resolved structures can be seen, such as eddies and currents. In September, Northern Germany becomes the meeting point for the international Earth System Modeling community. Three high-level scientific events, the CELLO Conference and the natESM Focus Workshop on Ocean Biogeochemistry in Hamburg, and the TropEcS Symposium in Bremen will bring together leading experts committed to shaping the future of climate, coastal, and ocean modeling.

How Permafrost Thaw Diminishes the Remaining Carbon Budget

 
[Translate to English:] Keeping global warming below 2°C compared to pre-industrial levels requires future carbon emissions to remain below a certain level. Researchers have quantified how accounting for the carbon released from thawing permafrost reduces estimates of the remaining carbon budgets for 2°C and 3°C of warming.

Changes in Cloud Altitude Have Minimal Impact on Climate Sensitivity

 
Clouds of different structure and at different altitudes over the blue ocean, photographed from a plane. Clouds influence how much the Earth warms in response to a given increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide. In addition to their extent and brightness, cloud altitude is one of the cloud properties believed to play an important role in this process. Researchers have shown: Although for certain cloud types, altitude might change as a result of global warming, this has little effect on climate sensitivity.

Moisture from the Mediterranean Once Fed Lakes in the Sahara

  
Three researchers with backpacks descend into a barren, rocky crater landscape, with salt crusts in the Era Kohor in the background, surrounded by steep brown rock faces under a clear blue sky. How could deep lakes have existed in the highest mountain range of the Sahara several thousand years ago? An interdisciplinary research group has solved this mystery by revealing that moist air masses from the Mediterranean caused heavy rainfall, which filled some of the mountain's volcanic craters.

ICON Simulations Nominated for Gordon Bell Prize for Climate Modelling

  
ALPS supercomputer in purple light Newly developed configurations of the climate model ICON allow for the simulation of decadal-scale climate change at km-scale resolution on the world’s most powerful computing systems. In recognition of this accomplishment, two projects using ICON have been nominated for the Gordon Bell Prize for Climate Modelling.
