- Exploring Cross-Scale Processes of extreme convective events in the Alpine region (CROSCEA)Project ManagerSchröer KStart/End of Project01.01.2024 until 31.12.2027DescriptionConvective events, characterized by extreme precipitation, wind, lightning, and hail, consistently account for a significant portion of insured natural hazard damages, particularly affecting the agricultural, vehicle, and building sectors. In recent years, record-breaking hailstone sizes (up to 19 cm in Europe), substantial damage costs (e.g., 2021 in Switzerland), and prolonged, intense convective storms have been observed. The increase in temperatures due to global warming enhances the air's saturation vapor pressure, thereby intensifying convective processes through moisture supply and increased latent heat release. Many of the most intense convective events in Europe occur around the Alps, where large-scale atmospheric flow is significantly influenced by the complex topography of mountain ridges and valleys and interacts with regional to-local processes. Recent climatologies of hail and lightning indicate distinct hotspots of convective activity around the Alps. However, a comprehensive analysis of these hotspots, their spatio-temporal variability, and the underlying processes has not yet been conducted across multiple Alpine countries and convective hazards. The objective of CROSCEA is to systematically classify and characterize convective hotspots in the greater Alpine region. Subsequently, the regional-to-local processes driving increased convection will be analyzed in greater depth using high-resolution observational and model data. CROSCEA is associated with the European-scale TIM field campaign initiative (Thunderstorm Intensification from Mountains to Plains) spearheaded by the European Severe Storms Laboratory ESSL and is committed to contributing its findings to advance the overarching goals of TIM.Contact PersonSchröer K, Jentsch H

It is one of the most expensive atmospheric hazards, and recent events have demonstrated this repeatedly with costly damage to vehicles, buildings, and agriculture. Hail is still one of the biggest challenges in forecasting, which is mainly due to the insufficient amount and quality of available data, together with the short spatio-temporal process scales. HAIPI aims to improve this situation integrating novel data sources to develop a product that estimates expected hail stone sizes through state-of-the-art machine learning algorithms. The focus is on crowd-sourced hail reports from the DWD WarnWetter-App as well as new dual-pol radar products, and existing products used in the DWD seamless forecast chain, e.g. KONRAD3D. As a first step, a routine for plausibility testing and quality control for the crowd-sourced data will be developed. The radar products will then be systematically evaluated, and uncertainties quantified. Using comparative machine learning analysis, an approach will be developed to predict expected hail stone sizes based on preprocessed input data. If proven skilful, a hail climatology for Germany will be derived from the resulting data product and the potential for impact assessments be evaluated. The outcomes will significantly advance the systematic observation and thus the prediction and warning of hail.Contact PersonSchröer K

Heat waves and droughts, sultriness, tropical nights, but also floods and storms as well as poor air quality have an impact on people and the environment and especially also on small and medium-sized enterprises as well as the involved actors in their daily work. In the transnational research project Clim'Ability Care, several research institutions are working on how to deal with the challenges of climate change. Here it is possible to build on the findings of the previous projects Clim'Ability and Clim'Ability Design. In the new project phase Clim'Ability Care, the focus is on promoting and deriving a new climate-resilient corporate culture. The central question here is how to integrate the dimensions of warning, mitigation, adaptation and care. The specific objectives are to: (1) Selecting sites that are particularly sensitive to climate change due to their climatic and socioeconomic makeup (2) Updating and expanding the toolbox "Clim'Ability", in which climatic stressors and the resulting affectedness, but also adaptation strategies are available online (3) Promotion of a new corporate culture throughout the Upper Rhine region through "learning situations“ (4) Institutionalization through the creation of a new cross-border corporate and risk culture (5) Communication, dissemination and visibility of the project The collaboration between regional universities, public institutions and SMEs promotes synergies between different local, disciplinary and economic cultures. In parallel, the project explores the institutional and economic models and concepts with regard to the sustainability of territorial climate services in the Southern Upper Rhine region.Contact PersonGruner SFinancingEU-INTERREG VI
- Deciphering the fluvio-social metabolism of the Upper Rhine area (DEMUR) - Factors and actors in the transformation towards a fluvial anthroposphere prior to the industrial periodProject ManagerBlöthe J, Glaser R, Preusser F, Schenk GStart/End of Project01.04.2023 until 31.03.2026DescriptionHuman influence has long interfered with natural floodplain evolution. While the indirect effects of deforestation on sediment transport and floodplain dynamics have been extensively researched, the socio-ecological processes and feedback mechanisms that determine how fluvial systems evolve along trajectories and path dependencies have only recently entered the scientific debate. We use the concept of a fluvio-social metabolism to illustrate these complex interdependencies between anthropogenic and natural processes that define how natural river systems transitioned into a fluvial anthroposphere. The aim of the project is to decipher the fluvio-social metabolism along path-dependencies and trajectories and to understand system dynamics of the fluvial anthroposphere in the Upper Rhine area. We focus on three specific aspects and their mutual interdependencies: socio-political systems, climate dynamics, and legacy sediments, integrating social and environmental archives as well as detailed laboratory and geostatistical analysis. By combining quantitative, semi-quantitative and qualitative methods we combine social and natural sciences. We seek to determine integrating indicators for the transition from natural floodplains to a fluvial anthroposphere on multiple spatio-temporal scales. Our research analyses the period from medieval times until the onset of the industrial revolution in the region around 1850 with focus on suspected transition periods. We hypothesise that in this fluvio-social system, specific socio-natural and political constellations, including territorial shifts, economical exploitation, institutions, conflicts, climatic variability and extremes, as well as riverine floods, determined path dependencies and trajectories of fluvial landscape evolution that found their expression in the floodplain record as legacy sediments. We follow a multidisciplinary approach that integrates the expertise from different disciplines, combining historic, climatic, and geomorphologic expertise. In three interlinking work packages, we investigate how 1) actors, socio-political constellations and institutions influenced floodplain development, 2) regional climate variability and extreme events impacted socio-ecological processes, and 3) natural and societal dynamics found their expression in the floodplain sedimentary record. Synthesising these various strands of social, climatic and geomorphologic results, we ultimately aim to integrate our insights into deciphering the fluvio-social metabolism. Finally, we evaluate to which degree our results can contribute to model this dynamic fluvio-social metabolism empirically, numerically and multivariate-statistically.Contact PersonBlöthe J

- MWS – Master on Continental Water SustainabilityProject ManagerBlöthe J, Imfeld G, Wittmann FStart/End of Project01.09.2022 until 31.08.2024DescriptionThe technical objective of MWS is to develop the concept and a syllabus for an innovative Master Course for the sustainable management of continental water socioecosystems, including best capacities of EUCOR partners of Strasbourg, Freiburg and KIT-Karlsruhe, and their local partner “National School for Water and Environmental Engineering from Strasbourg” (ENGEES). To achieve this goal in close collaboration with all partners, a course administrator will be employed to discuss with the lecturers and identify adequate course units that could be shared between universities. In combination with the new syllabus, course units will be created to enable students to combine knowledge from different sciences and develop adaptive, innovative and sustainable solutions. During the second year of the project, the M1 (first year of the MSc course) will be held as “test run” at Strasbourg university, the second year (M2) is planned to take place in Germany. All efforts will be taken to implement the course and sustain it (as a 2-year MSc) in the future. The academic objective of the course is to join forces to overcome various ‘boundaries’: (i) interdisciplinarity, especially communication between social sciences and natural sciences, (ii) institutional lock-in effects, hampering collaboration between scientists and practitioners, (iii) national and cultural boundaries at the Upper Rhine, representing an exceptional area for bridging and developing joint water sciences, innovation and learning opportunities, and (iv) global environmental problems.Contact PersonBlöthe J

With more and more glaciers disappearing, attention has moved towards the hydrological importance of ice stored in the periglacial environment, projected to exceed glacier ice volume in the European Alps by the mid-21st century. However, surprisingly little is known about the current state of the ice stored in the periglacial zones of alpine landscapes. Our project aims to disentangle the contribution of active layer and permafrost body to the summer runoff from the upper Kaiserberg catchment in the Austrian Alps. To achieve this goal, we combine repeated electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) surveys on the Kaiserberg rock glacier with continuous discharge measurements from two hydrological stations that we installed in the basin. We further collect water samples over the course of the summer that are analysed for δ18O and δ2H isotopes and the radio nuclide 129I , that allow us to differentiate thawing permafrost from active-layer or precipitation derived discharge.FinancingDr. Hohmann Förderung der Gesellschaft für Erdkunde zu Köln; Hanna Bremer StiftungPublicationsJournal Articles

- Suspended sediment transport in German lowland rivers (in cooperation with BFG)Project ManagerHoffmann Th, Blöthe JStart/End of Projectsince 01.10.2017 (unlimited)DescriptionSuspended sediment load dominates the sediment export from most lowland rivers around the world, also constituting a significant transport medium for pollutants and contaminants. This has important implications for the management of river systems that aims at achieving a good ecological and chemical status, as required for instance by the European Water Frame directive. A thorough understanding of the sources, transport mechanisms and sinks of suspended sediment is therefore a crucial prerequisite for successful management. However, sources and sinks of suspended sediment and the resulting concentration in the river water are highly variable throughout the year and in between years. In this project, we are interested in the spatiotemporal variability of suspended sediment transport in major German lowland rivers. In a first publication, we find that distinct breaks in the scaling relationship between suspended sediment concentration and discharge are induced by the organic matter concentrationContact PersonHoffmann ThPublicationsJournal Articles

Companies are rarely aware of their exposition to climate change induced risks and thus lack knowledge about possible adaptation measures. The companies in the Upper Rhine region are affected by complex vulnerability patterns. For this reason, the project’s goal is to develop individualized evaluation methods and adaptation strategies for local companies. The transnational aspect – the Upper Rhine region consists of a French, a German and a Swiss subregion - is a particular challenge for this project: risk perception as well as risk management approaches differ from country to country due to a specific political, institutional, historical and cultural setting. Here’s an overview of this project’s goals: vulnerability assessment and visualization in the Upper Rhine Metropolitan Region // conception of a survey that enables companies to self-check their vulnerability // climate risk consulting services (adaptation strategies) for affected companies // establishment of an expert network on climate change in the Upper Rhine Region // development of a CRE (collaborative research environment) as a central platform for data and information flow. The project is based on a past ANR (Agence Nationale de la Recherche)-funded project on climate change adaptation in the Upper Rhine Region that expired in December 2014. The results of Clim’Ability might serve as a model for other regions. Within the project, our team will be responsible for a regionalized in-depth vulnerability assessment and for the development of a web-based CRE that is supposed to serve as a platform for data and information exchange.Contact PersonScholze N
