The land surface in the climate system

In the DETECT Land and Climate Seminar, scientists of the CRC present the research progress of their project, but also international speakers external to the CRC are invited to present results of their investigations addressing issues within the wider context of the CRC, including scientists associated with projects of the CRC.

The seminar takes place irregularly on Mondays starting at 10:15. After an approximately 45 min. talk the presenters are happy to answer questions in a short discussion. The event is held via Zoom. Please contact the coordinator Frank Siegismund, if you would like to participate.

To introduce the PhD students to interdisciplinary science conducted in the CRC, a lecture series is held twice a year. The series addresses the different disciplines in an introductory fashion, including concepts and techniques relevant for research in modelling and observation of the water cycle, as well as of the land surface and its use, also beyond what is applied in current CRC projects.
The number of participants for specific courses might be limited. Anyone interested to participate in a specific course has to check admission with the responsible lecturer listed in the table of lectures below.

Upcoming activities and events organized by CESOC:

August 25-27, 2025: Third workshop on ‘Machine Learning for the Earth System Modelling’ (formally Large-Scale Deep Learning for the Earth System) that will take place again in Bonn, Germany, and online.

The workshop will discuss the latest developments on large-scale machine learning for Earth system modelling and will cover the following topics:

  • Machine learning-based numerical weather prediction
  • Climate emulators and machine learning-based climate models
  • Machine learning-based Earth system component models, such as ocean and land models
  • Incorporation of Earth system observations in the above models
  • Evaluation and explainability of the above models
  • Datasets for model training, evaluation and benchmarks

Registration and abstract submission will open in April 2025. For further details and updates, please visit: https://cesoc.net/third-workshop-on-machine-learning-for-the-earth-system/

August 27-29,2025: Hackathon on Machine Learning for the Earth System. Following the workshop on ML this hackathon is designed as a hands-on event for PhD students and early-career researchers passionate about applying ML to weather and climate research!

Why join? Gain insights from inspiring expert talks, tackle hands-on coding challenges, connect with leading researchers through mentorship and networking, and compete for exciting prizes. With two tracks—Beginner & Advanced—there’s a place for every skill level!
For more information about the Hackathon, please visit:  https://cesoc.net/hackathon-on-machine-learning-for-the-earth-system/ - Apply from March 17th!
