Simpozij OBDOBJA 35 DAS PHONETISCHE INSTITUT DER UNIVERSITÄT HAMBURG (1910–2006) Magnús Pétursson Institut für Phonetik, allgemeine Sprachwissenschaft und Indogermanistik, Hamburg UDK 81'34:929Topori{i~ J. V prispevku je kratko pojasnjena povezanost profesorja Jo`eta Topori{i~a s Foneti~nim in{titutom Univerze v Hamburgu. Profesor Topori{i~ je namre~ kot {tipendist Humboldtove ustanove izkoristil pomemben del svojega ~asa za znanstveno dejavnost na Univerzi v Ham- burgu. Hamburg, eksperimentalna fonetika, tonemi, intonacija, vizualizacija akusti~nih prvin The paper briefly presents the connection between Professor Jo`e Topori{i~ and the Institute of Phonetics at the University of Hamburg. As a scholarship holder of the Humboldt Foundation, Professor Topori{i~ was most of that time engaged in scholarly activities at the University of Hamburg. Hamburg, experimental phonetics, tonemes, intonation, visualisation of acoustic elements Das Phonetische Institut der Universität Hamburg wurde 1910 als »Phonetisches Laboratorium«, eine Abteilung im Afrikanischen Seminar des Kolonialinstituts (1908–1919), dem Vorläuferinstitut der Universität Hamburg, gegründet. Die vordringliche Aufgabe des Afrikanischen Seminars war die Erforschung der afrikanischen und ostasiatischen Kolonialsprachen in den damals deutschen Kolo- nien. Dies sollte mithilfe der modernsten Forschungsmethoden, den experimentell- phonetischen Methoden, durchgeführt werden. Ein junger Wissenschaftler, Giulio Panconcelli-Calzia (1878–1966), wurde mit der Leitung des Phonetischen Labo- ratoriums beauftragt. Unter seiner Führung (von 1910 bis 1949) erlangte das Phonetische Laboratorium, das mit der Gründung der Universität Hamburg im Jahr 1919 eine selbständige Forschungseinrichtung wurde, großes Ansehen und wurde weltbekannt. Neben der intensiven Erforschung allgemein phonetischer Fragestellungen wurden bald erste Versuche zur Behandlung sprech- und hörgeschädigter Menschen unternommen. Im Ersten Weltkrieg wurden sprachgeschädigte und traumatisierte Soldaten behandelt. -

Common Ground
1 Common Ground The Papal Encyclical, Science and the Protection of Planet Earth Hans Joachim Schellnhuber Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, Germany; Santa Fe Institute for Complex Systems Research, USA Laudato si’, the Papal Encyclical[1], is compiled at a crucial moment in the history of humanity: today. We are faced with the great challenge of limiting global warming to below 2°C while fostering development for the poorest. But we are also experiencing a special window of opportunity because the knowledge about the Earth system has never been greater. Moreover, we have the technical and economic solutions at hand to overcome the challenges we are confronted with. The urgency to act on these pressing issues that is expressed in the Encyclical mirrors the scientific findings which have accumulated into an overwhelming body of evidence. The science is clear: global warming is driven by greenhouse-gas emissions which are the result of burning fossil fuels. If we fail to strongly reduce these emissions and to bend the warming curve, we, our neighbors and children will be exposed to intolerable risks. The scientific consensus as represented by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has been continuously reaffirmed by the most eminent scientific academies, including the Pontifical Academy of Sciences and the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences which have congregated several times over the past years to address the topics of climate change and global sustainability ([2]–[5]). As any further delay to mitigation measures may jeopardize climate stability and thus our future, it is time to form alliances, find common ground and act together as humankind -- but also to take on individual responsibility and change what is in our power to change. -

Bayesian Downscaling of Building Exposure Models with Remote Sensing and Ancillary Information
EGU2020-18240, updated on 28 Sep 2021 https://doi.org/10.5194/egusphere-egu2020-18240 EGU General Assembly 2020 © Author(s) 2021.

Bayesian downscaling of building exposure models with remote sensing and ancillary information Raquel Zafrir1,2, Massimiliano Pittore1,3, Juan Camilo Gomez- Zapata1,4, Patrick Aravena5, and Christian Geiß5 1Helmholtzcentre Potsdam GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences, Potsdam, Germany ([email protected], [email protected], [email protected]) 2Hochschule für Technik Stuttgart - HFT Stuttgart, Stuttgart, Germany ([email protected]) 3Eurac Research, Bolzano, Italy 4University of Potsdam, Potsdam, Germany 5German Aerospace Center (DLR), Weßling, Germany ([email protected], [email protected]) Residential building exposure models for risk and loss estimations related to natural hazards are usually defined in terms of specific schemas describing mutually exclusive, collectively exhaustive (MECE) classes of buildings. These models are derived from: (1) the analysis of census data or (2) by means of individual observations in the field. In the first case, expert elicitation has been conventionally used to classify the building inventory into particular schemas, usually aggregated over geographical administrative units whose size area and shape are country-specific. In the second case, especially for large urban areas, performing a visual inspection of every building in order to assign a class according to the specific schema used is a highly time- and resource intensive task, often simply unfeasible. Remote sensing data based on the analysis of satellite imagery has proved successful in integrating large-scale information on the built environment and as such can provide valuable vulnerability-related information, although often lacking the level of spatial and thematic resolution requested by multi-hazard applications. -

Yakubovich the founder and chair (1970-2012)of the Department of Theoretical Cybernetics at the Faculty of Mathematics and Mechanics of Saint-Petersburg State University, the author/co-author of eight books and more than 300 journal articles and conference papers are considered through the lens of intellectual democracy movement in the modern Russia. Vladimir Andreevich Yakubovich (referred to below as V. A.), other accolades of V.

He would have turned the history of the development of linear matrix inequalities in 90 in 2016. The authors of this paper are disciples of V. A. control: “It is fair to say that Yakubovich is the father of the and do remember him as an outstanding scholar and humanist, field, and Lyapunov the grandfather of the field” (Boyd et al., a person of extraordinary sagacity and exceptional goodwill, 1994, p.4). a truly courageous human being.
