Marco Bohnhoff is new Head of GFZ section Geomechanics and Rheology, starting on 1 January. He succeeds Georg Dresen, who was Head of section since 1992. Since 2010, Bohnhoff is Professor for Experimental- and Borehole Seismology in a joint…
Accuracy of space weather prediction depends strongly on the quality of the models. A team led by the GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences demonstrates how errors in the algorithms can lead to wrong predictions. The authors present a new…
The final meeting of the project “Seismic monitoring and vulnerability framework for civil protection” SIBYL was held at the GFZ on 7 December, organized by the GFZ Centre for Early Warning Systems. SIBYL was set out to develop an operational…
The determination of the spatial distribution of erosive processes is difficult. Especially in rough terrain the installation of measuring devices for a continuous measurement is complicated. This is why to date there are only few data available,…

Climate protection from space and in 3D. The initiative “Germany – Land of Ideas“ distinguishes projects that „give answers on urgent matters of the future“. Two GFZ projects are among the winners: CoolFarmTool Space from Daniel Spengler, GFZ section…
Sonja Martens, Manager of the GFZ Department Geochemistry, has been elected President of the Division “Energy, Resources and the Environment (ERE)” of the European Geosciences Union (EGU). She will take the office at the EGU General Assembly in April…
The international World Stress Map Project (WSM) describes the present-day stress state of the Earth’s crust, displays it in global maps, and investigates sources of stress. On its 30th anniversary the project, coordinated by Oliver Heidbach, GFZ…
The GFZ wins an award in the national ideas competition "International Research Marketing“. The concept "The international Geo-Campus Potsdam/Berlin - Enhancing the international visibility of GFZ and the Geo.X Network to capitalize a worldwide…
Solar winds are a permanent flow of charged particles from the sun – mainly consisting of ionized hydrogen. The Earth’s magnetic field stops these particles at the upper atmosphere, where a fraction of the kinetic energy of the particle flow is…
