Was macht Berliner Nächte hell? Und wie erleben wir die Dunkelheit? Diese Fragen haben wir gestern Abend mit dem #HikersGuide auf einem Abendspaziergang durch den Berliner Tiergarten mit @NonaBerlin @wavematters erkundet. #Wisskomm #Lichtverschmutzung @w_jahr

Seit rund zwei Wochen soll ein Lärmmessgerät auf der Admiralbrücke dafür sorgen, dass Anwohner besser schlafen können. Bei zu viel Krach leuchtet das Gerät rot und schlägt so Alarm. Das tat es auch dieses Wochenende - so richtig interessiert hat das aber wohl niemanden.

Nona Schulte-Römer kicks off the first invited talk of #ALAN2023 with a "highly contested" subject: whether (and how) light at night influences personal safety and secutiy.

Chile is burning. +200 fire outbreaks over the last 24 hours. 15K hectares in 4 regions of the country that has claimed 13 lives already. The Ñuble Region registers record temperatures of 42°C.
Deadly combination of climate change and monoculture tree plantations

Proud of my former PhD student @bmommersteeg! Check out his amazing article on sound and noise as elusive objects of knowledge. A sophisticated study of the epistemological status of 'approximation' based on careful ethnography of acousticians at work👉

July - Berlin is burning with heat. I witness a woman buying water for a homeless man sleeping on concrete in the glaring sun. Such individual caring is great, but it's even greater that the Berlin Senate is funding a "heat help" pilot project with €106K. dw.com/de/hitzehilfe-berlin-…

B/c this seems to be a common q today ("how did the British withstand tropical heat?"), I'm re-sharing this essay I wrote about colonial science and how heat was thought to affect different kinds of raced & gendered bodies in India & other tropical sites

Summer heat is monitored, but the fatal health effects of heat waves are not systematically recorded. @zeitonline offers a data-rich picture of the situation in German communities. For all who cannot jump the paywall, here a glimpse of the story, in German zeit.de/politik/deutschland/…

ALT Looks like a correlation - the brighter the colour the more: Map1 (left) shows the number of heat warnings in German communities in 2018 (darkest beige <5, yellowish >20), Map2 (middle) shows heat days in 2018 (darkest brown 5, yellow >30), Map3 (right) shows the number of people above 65 years per million inhabitants that were hospitalised due to heat problems (darkest tone 200, brightest read >800).
