to safeguard a habitable planet.
The GFZ Helmholtz Centre for Geosciences is Germany's national centre for solid Earth research.
As part of his introductory tour of all 18 Helmholtz Centres, Martin Keller visited central laboratories and facilities at the GFZ and discussed key areas of Earth system research with researchers.
Combining two modelling approaches can capture the seismicity associated with land uplift and earthquake swarms in recent decades. This also improves hazard assessment.
The radar will detect highly accurate, small-scale precipitation events in real-time. The data will be provided through a user-friendly web application, with farmers being the primary beneficiaries.
The Potsdam Science Day (PTDW) will take place on 9th May 2026 from noon to 6 pm. This year, the event will be held at the University of Potsdam’s Golm Campus. The Research Institute for Sustainability (RIFS) will also be represented with a large stand in the researchers' camp: the focus will…
GFZ welcomes Dr Michal Ben-Israel and Dr Camilo Ignacio Pinilla Ramos, who are joining the sections “Earth Surface Process Modelling” and “Seismic Hazard and Risk Dynamics” respectively for two years.
Both researchers are receiving an award for the best oral presentation: Dr. Helen Feord for her research as a postdoc and Mirjam Paasch as a doctoral candidate.
