PAGES IMPACT workshop 2026
This initial workshop of the PAGES IMPACT working group aims to provide a first coordinated assessment of thresholds, abrupt climate changes, and tipping points in Earth’s geological past on multiple temporal and spatial scales. As paleoclimate records provide the only direct observational evidence for the occurrence of Earth system tipping points, this effort will provide improved constraints on their future likelihood and potential impacts. We invite contributions from researchers covering all Earth system components that exhibit abrupt changes and tipping points to initiate these efforts.

Superzellen in Europa ‒ von Berggewittern zu Klimawandel
Superzellen-Gewitter zählen zu den gefährlichsten Wetterphänomenen Europas. Diese besonders intensiven Gewitterzellen treten meistens im Sommer im Alpenraum auf. Sie zeichnen sich durch einen rotierenden Aufwind aus und gehen mit heftigen Windböen, grossem Hagel und starken Regenfällen einher.
