In the first week of December, we were delighted to welcome a subset of our Domain Leads to Potsdam for what proved to be a highly productive meeting. Unfortunately, we were only able to meet some of our members in person, as several (seven, by our count!) were simultaneously participating…

The TIPMIP Team continues to grow! This month, we were delighted to welcome a new experienced modeler to our group: Goran Georgievski, who has joined us as sectoral liaison and domain lead for the Permafrost Domain. Before joining PIK, Goran was a project scientist in the Climate-Biosphere Interactions group (led…
