Graphic Recording von zwei Vorträgen. Das Bild hat drei Panels. Links ist ein grün gefüllter Umriss von Brandenburg mit den Wörtern H2 Tag Brandenburg. Rechts sind Word Clouds mit Zeichnungen gemischt. Beispiele sind wir forschen für die Energiewende, Brandenburg ist auf dem Weg zur Klimaneutralität und Bilder von der Erde und Molekülen.
Manuel Recker (manuelrecker.de) hat wunderschöne Graphic Recordings vom Brandenburger Wasserstofftag erstellt. Rechts oben ist meine Begrüßung für @gfz.bsky.social und Rechts unten die Begrüßung durch Minister Keller, MWAEK.
Veranstaltungsbild zum Brandenburger Wasserstofftag 2025. Kugelrunde Wassertropfen als verbundenen Moleküle gestaltet
@gfz.bsky.social und das Brandenburger Ministerium für Wirtschaft, Arbeit, Energie und Klimaschutz veranstalten heute gemeinsam den Brandenburger Wasserstofftag 2025. Für das GFZ eine Betonung der Wichtigkeit des geologischen Untergrunds als strategische Infrastruktur für die Energiewende
It's Pride Month, and we are overjoyed to share a video series with you featuring our LGBTQIA+ professionals & allies in STEM. Thanks to all for taking part and a special thanks to Katia Jasbinschek Pinheiro for camera, direction, and editing! www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2Qf...
„It was a shock for us in the geosciences,” recalls a colleague, who models tsunamis at the GFZ. “Theoretically, we knew that such severe quakes could occur, but the extent of the rupture zone over more than 1,000 kilometres and the devastating floods in particular took us all by surprise.” 👇🏻
The image shows a colorful collage of satellite images of the Earth's surface, depicting various environmental and landscape structures in high-contrast colors. The images display river deltas, deserts, coastlines, agricultural areas, and mountain ranges from a bird’s-eye view. The color palette includes shades of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet. In the top right corner is the “30 Years Stories” logo. The lower left corner contains the caption: “#23 EnMAP – Space-based Environmental Mapping.” The Helmholtz logo appears at the bottom right.
A satellite that comprehends the Earth! 🌍
With EnMAP, Helmholtz (@dlr-en.bsky.social, @gfz.bsky.social) makes environmental changes visible – accurately and globally.
From climate effects to soil quality and water: EnMAP delivers the crucial data we need.

A woman wearing a headscarf sits in a monitoring center in front of several computer screens. The monitors display charts, maps, and data analyses, including wave heights and coastal outlines. In the background, a large screen shows a tsunami simulation map with marked danger zones. The image highlights the GITEWS Tsunami Early Warning System. In the top right corner is the “30 Years Stories” logo. The bottom left displays the caption: “#21 Helping Brace for Disasters: The Tsunami Early Warning System GITEWS.” The Helmholtz logo appears at the bottom right.
The 2004 tsunami showed us the urgent need for an early warning system.
@gfz.bsky.social, in collaboration with @dlr-en.bsky.social, @geomarkiel.bsky.social, @awi.de and Hereon, created GITEWS – now known as InaTEWS.
And the research goes on.

Much enjoying the presentations today by the Doctoral Candidates in the @talents-dn.bsky.social network. So much already achieved in just a year! Check the posts by @derekkeir.bsky.social to see all Doctoral Candidates
Morgen schon was vor? Wer in der Nähe von #Potsdam ist, ist herzlich eingeladen, zum Potsdamer Tag der Wissenschaften #PTdW25 zu kommen. Wir sind auch dort: www.gfz.de/presse/meldu...
If you are asking what kind of science we can afford, you've got it wrong. It's the other way round: What kind of ignorance & data gaps do we want to accept? Read how political intervention in the US jeopardises science & data by @susannebuiter.bsky.social 👇

5 people seated at a long desk on a stage in front of a large screen. To the right a speaker is standing. The screen shows 2 labelled circles, one inside the other, linking research assessment, peer review, submission rates, publisher's revenue and scientific quality
Great Debate 8 at #EGU25 "Publish or Perish in the Open Access Era" bringing up the 'vicious' cycle of publishing. Looking forward to the discussions this morning @egu.eu
Two women and a man are standing in front of a poster that says 'meet the EGU journal editors'. All wear a EGU dark blue vest for the occasion. We look happy to be at the meeting
Solid Earth is 15 years! Come celebrate with us at #egu25 on Thursday 1 May 2025 18:00-19:00 at Coffee spot X3 (at -2.21). Lotte, Florian and me will be happy to answer any questions on publishing in our open access journal and most of all of course to celebrate! @egu.eu & Copernicus Publications
#Train2EGU! Much enjoying the train journey Berlin-Vienna with many @gfz.bsky.social colleagues on our way to #egu25! @egu.eu #GreenEGU
Series of strong earthquakes shake Istanbul region. We recorded the strongest shock with a magnitude of 6.2 this morning, the strongest in 25 years. Read more here: www.gfz.de/en/press/new...
The 2025 Earth Day theme, “Our Power, Our Planet,” calls on all people to work towards a future where energy is sustainable and accessible for everyone. The geosciences provide important data, models, and knowledge that can guide responsible assessment, sustainable development, and management of energy resources. Sustainable and ethical energy development calls for applications of both established principles and innovative approaches that are enabled by geoscientists. The global geoscience community is committed to improving the knowledge, policy environment, and public awareness needed for us all to make conscientious energy-related decisions and take well-considered actions across all aspects of our lives.
This #EarthDay EGU joins our siblings and friends around the world to make a single statement, to continue to work towards a just and sustainable future, powered by transparent scientific research, conducted by our diverse scientific communities.
#EarthDay2025
"Make better use of the underground" is the encouragement of @gfz.bsky.social following the @dvgeo.bsky.social position paper "Emerging Fields in the Geosciences" emphasising the vital role of the #geosciences in addressing the urgent challenges of our time.

We have updated our webpage with our latest findings for the Myanmar earthquake from March 28, 2025. We also have preliminary results from satellite images showing the ground movements. Several of our colleagues were working on some quick results which may be updated 1/6

Very bad news from #Myanmar where a 7.8 magnitude earthquake shook the region near Mandalay. For a comparison: This is the about the same strength as the devastating quakes in Türkiye and Syria in 2023. We will update our pages for more information soon.

@gfz.bsky.social - GFZ Helmholtz Centre for Geosciences please. Thank you!
We have a new logo and a new name. To make it easier to spell and get the German name more aligned with the English one: GFZ Helmholtz-Zentrum für Geoforschung | GFZ Helmholtz Centre for Geosciences. Happy New Year to all of our followers and friends 🍀
OTD twenty years ago the 3rd strongest earthquake ever recorded by seismometers struck offshore the island of Sumatra. A tsunami followed killing more than 200,000 people. In the aftermath we helped develop a tsunami warning system for the region. Read more here: www.gfz-potsdam.de/en/press/new...
It does! In the international continental scientific drilling programme, www.icdp-online.org But the Kola Superdeep Borehole remains truly amazing. And i would have loved to listen to the talk by @seismatters.bsky.social
