  • The Influence of Green Areas and Roof Albedos on Air Temperatures During Extreme Heat Events in Berlin, Germany
    Meteorologische Zeitschrift, Vol. 22, No. 2, 131–143 (April 2013) Open Access Article Ó by Gebru¨der Borntraeger 2013 The Influence of green areas and roof albedos on air temperatures during Extreme Heat Events in Berlin, Germany Sebastian Schubert* and Susanne Grossman-Clarke Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, Germany (Manuscript received May 1, 2012; in revised form November 15, 2012; accepted November 19, 2012) Abstract The mesoscale atmospheric model COSMO-CLM (CCLM) with the Double Canyon Effect Parametrization Scheme (DCEP) is applied to investigate possible adaption measures to extreme heat events (EHEs) for the city of Berlin, Germany. The emphasis is on the effects of a modified urban vegetation cover and roof albedo on near-surface air temperatures. Five EHEs with a duration of 5 days or more are identified for the period 2000 to 2009. A reference simulation is carried out for each EHE with current vegetation cover, roof albedo and urban canopy parameters (UCPs), and is evaluated with temperature observations from weather stations in Berlin and its surroundings. The derivation of the UCPs from an impervious surface map and a 3-D building data set is detailed. Characteristics of the simulated urban heat island for each EHE are analysed in terms of these UCPs. In addition, six sensitivity runs are examined with a modified vegetation cover of each urban grid cell by À25%, 5% and 15%, with a roof albedo increased to 0.40 and 0.65, and with a combination of the largest vegetation cover and roof albedo, respectively. At the weather stations’ grid cells, the results show a maximum of the average diurnal change in air temperature during each EHE of 0.82 K and À0.48 K for the À25% and 15% vegetation covers, À0.50 K for the roof albedos of 0.65, and À0.63 K for the combined vegetation and albedo case.

  • GV-Vorlage Präsident
    Eine Initiative von Wissenschaft, Politik und Wirtschaft Die Eröffnung des Harnack-Hauses am 7. Mai 1929 war für Berliner Wissenschaftler, Politiker und Spitzenvertreter der Wirtschaft ein großer Tag, hatten sie doch mit vereinten Kräften erreicht, dass Berlin endlich ein Vortrags- und Begegnungszentrum für die Mitglieder der berühmten Dahlemer Institute und gleichzeitig ein Gästehaus für Wissenschaftler aus aller Welt bekam. Initiatoren des Hauses waren vor allem Adolf von Harnack und Friedrich Glum, die energisch für die Realisierung des Projektes gekämpft hatten. Der Theologe Adolf von Harnack, erster Präsident der Kaiser-Wilhelm-Gesellschaft, Robert Andrews Millikan im Harnack-Haus © Bundesarchiv Bild 102-12631 / CC-BA-SA,/Fotograf: hatte vor allem ein Ziel: Die Isolation der deutschen Georg Pahl Wissenschaft nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg zu über- winden und durch internationale Zusammenarbeit Spitzenleistungen zu ermöglichen. Harnacks Bestrebungen, ein internationales Forscher- zentrum in Dahlem aufzubauen, wurden tatkräftig unterstützt von Generaldirektor Glum, der innerhalb der KWG, bei Firmen und Privatleuten für die Idee einer internationalen Begeg- nungsstätte Werbung gemacht hatte. Im Juni 1926 beschloss der Senat der Kaiser- Wilhelm-Gesellschaft die Gründung des Harnack- Hauses - auch mit dem Ziel, Dank abzustatten für die Gastfreundschaft, die deutsche Forscher im Ausland erfahren hatten. Als wichtigste politische Paten des Harnack-Hauses stellten sich Reichsau- ßenminister Gustav Stresemann, Reichskanzler Wilhelm Marx und der einflussreiche Zentrums- Abgeordnete Georg Schreiber heraus, die der Idee Harnacks die nötige politische Lobby verschafften und öffentliche Mittel für den Bau des Hauses durchsetzten. Konkret bedeutete das: Das Reich Einweihung des Kaiser-Wilhelm-Instituts in Berlin Dahlem, 28.

  • The Dahlem Workshops
    The Dahlem Workshops History During the last half of the twentieth century, specialization in science greatly in- creased in response to advances achieved in technology and methodology. This trend, although positive in many respects, created barriers between disciplines and could have inhibited progress if left unchecked. Understanding the concepts and methodologies of related disciplines became a necessity. Reuniting the dis- ciplines to obtain a broader view of an issue became imperative, for problems rarely fall conveniently into the purview of a single scientific area. Interdisci- plinary communication and innovative problem solving within a conducive en- vironment were perceived as integral yet lacking to this process. In 1971, an initiative to create such an environment began within Germany’s scientific community. In discussions between the Deutsche Forschungsgemein- schaft (German Science Foundation) and the Stifterverband für die Deutsche Wissenschaft (Association for the Promotion of Science Research in Germany), researchers were consulted to compare the needs of the scientific community with existing approaches. It became apparent that something new was required: an approach that began with state-of-the-art knowledge and proceeded onward to challenge the boundaries of current understanding; a form truly interdisci- plinary in its problem-solving approach. As a result, the Stifterverband established Dahlem Konferenzen (the Dahlem Workshops) in cooperation with the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft in 1974. Silke Bernhard, formerly associated with the Schering Symposia, was Figure adapted from L’Atmosphère: Météorologie Populaire, Camille Flammarion. Paris: Librairie Hachette et Cie., 1888. viii The Dahlem Workshops engaged to lead the conference team and was instrumental in implementing this unique approach. The Dahlem Workshops take their name from a district of Berlin known for its strong historic connections to science.

  • The Historic Dahlem District and the Fritz-Haber-Institut
    Sketch of the south-west border of Berlin today Berlin 1885 1908 Starting with a comparison of sciences in Prussia with that in France, England, and USA, Adolf von Harnack (a protestant theologian) suggested to the Kaiser to found research institutes named "Kaiser Wilhelm Institutes for Scientific Research". The Kaiser liked the idea and was fully supportive: 1910 "... We need institutions that exceed the boundaries of the universities and are unimpaired by the objectives of education, but in close association with academia and universities, serving only the purpose of research ... it is my desire to establish under my protectorate and under my name a society whose task it is to establish and maintain such institutes .... 1911 Foundation of the "KWI for Chemistry" and the "KWI for Physical Chemistry and Electrochemistry" (first director: Fritz Haber) -- about 10 more institutes were founded during the coming 10 years. 1 1912 Kaiser-Wilhelm Institute for Chemistry and for Physical- Chemistry and Electrochemistry -- Most right: Villa of Fritz Haber.

  • Otto Hahn Medal 2015
    Outstanding! Junior scientists of the Max Planck Society June 2016, Saarbrücken Contents Foreword ......................... 2 The Otto Hahn Medal .......... 4 – 35 The Otto Hahn Award .............36 The Dieter Rampacher Prize .......40 The Nobel Laureate Fellowship ....42 The Reimar Lüst Fellowship ........48 Impressum ......................49 1 Outstanding! The Max Planck Society is always on the lookout for the most creative, innovative minds in almost every discipline of the basic sciences. We offer such pioneers ideal conditions for the achieve­ ment of their research goals. From the Directors to our doctoral students, Max Planck researchers of all career stages have the courage and intellec­ tual strength to open up new chapters in science. Especially in the case of junior scientists, our aim is to make them more aware of their own abilities and to encourage them to find their own way in research. Support of junior scientists is there fore an essential element of the Max Planck Society. We are fully aware that the same universal law holds true in science as elsewhere: the future depends on the up­and­coming generation! The level at which our junior scientists pursue their research is consistently high across all 83 Institutes. Nevertheless, every year we single out a small number of junior scientists whose achievements we deem to be particularly out­ standing. They have succeeded – right at the start of their careers – in demonstrating a high degree of scientific creativity. The laureates featured in this booklet will be honoured at a ceremony at the 2016 Annual General Meeting in Saarbrücken in the presence of all the members of the Max Planck Society.

  • Staatliche Museen Zu Berlin September 24–29, 2017 September, 2017
    Staatliche Museen zu Berlin September 24–29, 2017 September, 2017 Dear PREP Participants Welcome back to PREP and Willkommen in Berlin! It is wonderful to have you all here. We hope the coming week will be as interesting and insightful as the week we spent in New York in February. Over the coming days, we aim to introduce you to the key re- sources Berlin has to offer to researchers studying art losses in the Nazi-Era and also to other colleagues here in Berlin who are involved in provenance research in a variety of ways. We would also like to make you familiar with some of the institutions that are part of the Staatliche Museen zu Berlin and give you an idea of the work they are doing with regard to provenance research. Most of all, however, we would like to provide the setting in which you can continue the conversations you began in New York and carry on building the network that is PREP. We have asked you to contribute to quite a few of the events – thank you all for your many ideas and suggestions! We have tried to build PREP around the participants and your expertise and input are crucial to the success of the program. This applies not only to the coming week, but also to the future develop- ment of the PREP-Network. There are two ways in which we hope you will contribute to the long term success of PREP. One of these is that we hope you will all keep in touch after you leave Berlin and continue supporting each other in the impor- tant work you do.

In den drei kleineren Kuben richten sich die Wohnräume (Esszimmer, zusammensetzt. Ein hoher Kubus, der parallel zur Straße steht, wirkt wie eine Schutzwand. Dahinter schließen sich drei Damen- und Herrenzimmer) zum Garten aus. Das Damenzimmer zeigt eckseitig zum Garten orientiert ein Fenster mit einer etwas niedrigere, gleich hohe Kuben an. Sie öffnen sich fächerartig zum Garten. Sie sind auch im Grundriss annähernd gerundeten Scheibe. Die vor gelagerte Terrasse ermöglicht die schöne Beziehung zwischen Innen- und Außenraum. gleichgroß. In ihrer jeweiligen Lage zum Garten jedoch sind sie individuell gestaltet, mit Blick in den Garten und in verschiedener Ausrichtung zur Sonne. Durch den Versatz der Würfel ergibt sich hinter der straßenseitigen Strenge eine lockere Öffnung ins Grüne. Die Außenraumgestaltung des einstmals doppelt so großen Grundstücks hatte der Gartenarchitekten Georg Pniower geplant. Er bezeichnete seine Anlage treffend als „Wohngarten“. Den urtümlichen Kiefernbestand, vereinzelt mit Birken durchsetzt, setzte Pniower bewusst in Szene. Nicht nur für den Garten ist der Altbestand von Bedeutung, sondern besonders auch für die Fassaden, insbesondere zur Straßenseite. Kiefern vor den schlichten Putzfassaden, ihre Schatten auf den Fassaden mit wanderndem Sonnenstand bieten einen reizvollen, lebendigen Kontrast zu der strengen Geometrie der Architektur. Während die Fassaden seiner Häuser in früheren Jahren durchaus expressiv gestaltet waren, reduziert Ahrends seine jüngeren Baukörper immer weiter. Er verzichtet auf Ornamentik. Mit der Entscheidung zum Flachdach entdeckt er den Kubus, reiht diesen auf oder staffelt ihn hintereinander.

  • Berlin Tempelhof: from Heritage Site to Creative Industry Hub? Dagmar
    Print: ISBN 978-1-78969-873-2 Online: ISSN 2531-8810 EX NOVO Journal of Archaeology, Volume 5, December 2020: 79-91 79 Published Online: Dec 2020 Berlin Tempelhof: From Heritage Site to Creative Industry Hub? Dagmar Zadrazilova Independent Researcher Abstract Tempelhof Airport in Berlin mirrors the political, social and cultural developments in the capital and - broadly - in the whole country. Tempelhof has witnessed the heyday of the 1920s aviation, figured in the National Socialists’ power politics and acquired a reputable status in the course of the 1948/49 Berlin Airlift. During and after the Cold War, Tempelhof had been functioning as an airport, before it was closed down amidst protests in 2008. Today, the vast grassy airfield is open as a park, whilst various plans are being devised for the future usage of the former airport building. October 2018 marked the 10th anniversary since the air traffic had been discontinued. It is, therefore, an appropriate occasion to look at the Tempelhof case anew. This paper attempts to shed light on how the manifold history and symbolic value of Tempelhof Airport is – or is not – being reflected within the current usage of the site, as well as in various proposals for its future developments, and how the latter correspond to the unique atmosphere of this place. Tempelhof’s rich and unusual history re-emerges in virtually every decision about the future of the site: from the idea to turn the site into an encompassing ‘creative hub,’ to economic questions (making the building more accessible to the public, using the terminal hall and the apron for mass events, and the like), right to the opposition of large groups of locals to the Senate of Berlin’s politics.
