Allergic diseases are among the major health challenges of our time, with a high individual disease burden and significant costs for the healthcare system. A new international state-of-the-art review now sheds light on how climate change, air quality, and pollen exposure interact and influence allergic diseases.

The school in Dillingen an der Donau held its kick-off event for the climate school initiative. To mark the start, the Center for Climate Resilience at the University of Augsburg gave a keynote speech on climate change and climate protection.

At the annual general meeting of the Academy for Spatial Research and Planning in the Leibniz Association (ARL) on November 27-28, 2025, Prof. Dr. Angela Oels expressed her gratitude for her admission to the academy.

From July 2026, groundwater in Bavaria will be subject to a charge. Harald Kunstmann assesses the underlying draft law, which is to be passed by the Bavarian state parliament before the end of the year.

Together with her co-author Florian Steig, Prof. Dr. Angela Oels explains in a new paper why the international climate regime contributes so little to solving the climate problem.

In a report on the program “Forschung aktuell” (Deutschlandfunk) and in a report on RadioEins (RBB) “Die Profis,” Prof. Dr. Angela Oels attested that the failed UN climate conference COP30 sent a signal for climate adaptation.

Air quality monitoring is essential for understanding population exposure to pollution, yet many cities do not have complete or continuous Air Quality Monitoring Networks (AQMN). To support scientists, students, journalists, and decision-makers, we developed an interactive web application that allows users to visualize monthly median concentrations of NO? and SO? anywhere in the world.

Accessing long-term climate data is essential for environmental research, education, and informed decision-making. The DWD Temperature Explorer is a free, browser-based dashboard that allows users to easily explore, visualize, and download historical temperature data from the Deutscher Wetterdienst (German Meteorological Service).

Scientists from the Centre for Climate Resilience (CCR) participated in this year's International Climate Resilience Conference (iCARE), held from 26 to 29 October 2025 at Ludwig Maximilians University of Munich. The conference brought together scholars, policymakers, and practitioners to exchange insights and strategies for advancing climate resilience across diverse disciplines.

The University of Augsburg welcomes Prof. Dr. Simron J. Singh from the University of Waterloo as a visiting professor. Together with the Resource Lab, he is launching an international research network in the field of Industrial Ecology – with a focus on island nations, resource management, and climate adaptation.

Multiple cropping, the simultaneous cultivation of several crop species in space or time, is a widespread global agricultural practice. However, it is not adequately included in existing land use models. A study conducted at the University of Augsburg shows how such models could be improved.

We are proud to announce that researchers from the Center for Climate Resilience, together with Martin Nerlinger from the University of St. Gallen, received the Climate Finance Award from Liechtenstein Life Assurance AG and the University of Liechtenstein at the Liechtenstein Workshop of Sustainable Finance.
