This really happened and is wonderful. Establishing a broader understanding of climate change is a huge societal task, not only for news media & science communicators but equally for sports and the cultural sector. Well done, @[email protected] and @[email protected]

Am I about 250% overbooked this semester? Yes. Am I applying for a time turner to join a @[email protected] led bookclub on @[email protected] and @[email protected] Inclusive Teaching book? Heck Yes.
Gonna be fun when ChatGPT's public beta ends in 10 weeks from now or so when everyone finally got adjusted to it.
Better yet: it gives you a natural opportunity to catch unclarities and mistakes early, and co-design the syllabus.
“...my greatest tip of all time: put your syllabus in Perusall. Not only will this give students an opportunity to acclimate to Perusall, it will also ensure that they’ve read (and engaged with) your syllabus!”

5 Tips for Creating Meaningful Reading Assignments with Perusall
How do we get students to engage meaningfully with our course texts? If you’ve been using Perusall for a while, you already know that this technology solves one of the most fundamental challenges we face as teachers—getting students to do the reading—but you may still be struggling to meaningfully incorporate Perusall assignments into your course. Here are some of the strategies I’ve learned after four years of developing Perusall assignments both as a faculty member and as a faculty developer helping other instructors use Perusall.

Rats, this paper now counts as a 2022 paper. Better get moving for the 2023 batch. #Beancounting

Shallow Cumulus Entrainment Dynamics in a Sheared Environment
Abstract Vertical wind shear has long been known to tilt convective towers and reduce thermal ascent rates. The purpose of this study is to better understand the physical mechanisms responsible for reduced ascent rates in shallow convection. In particular, the study focuses on cloud-edge mass flux to assess how shear impacts mass-flux profiles of both the ensemble and individual clouds of various depths. A compositing algorithm is used to distill large-eddy simulation (LES) output to focus on up- and down-shear cloud edges that are not influenced by complex cloud geometry or nearby clouds. A direct entrainment algorithm is used to estimate the mass flux through the cloud surface. We find that the dynamics on the up- and down-shear sides are fundamentally different, with the entrainment of environmental momentum and dilution of buoyancy being primarily responsible for the reduced down-shear ascent rates. Direct estimates of fluid flow through the cloud interface indicate a counter-shear organized flow pattern that entrains on the down-shear side and detrains on the up-shear side, resulting from the subcloud shear being lifted into the cloud layer by the updraft. In spite of organized regions of entrainment and detrainment, the overall net lateral mass flux remains unchanged with respect to the no shear run, with weak detrainment present throughout cloud depth.

Then I moved to Delft. I mean, to Hamburg.i mean, to Cologne.

Beautiful despite the rain, due to the stunning architecture.
