How will gas pipelines and their components behave when hydrogen flows through them in future? The “H₂INFRA – H₂ Infrastructure” research project is providing important insights into this. Leipzig University of Applied Sciences (HTWK Leipzig), DBI Gas- und Umwelttechnik and MITNETZ GAS have investigated this in a long-term trial at the hydrogen test facility in […]
The building has been empty for months now. Over the last few days, the Geutebrück building of the HTWK on Karl-Liebknecht-Straße has now been completely covered in scaffolding. Under the supervision of the Leipzig II branch of the state-owned enterprise Sächsisches Immobilien- und Baumanagement (SIB), extensive renovation work is now underway on the Geutebrück building […]
For decades, the proportion of East Germans in top positions within companies, the Bundeswehr, the judiciary and other sectors has been significantly lower than their share of the population. A research team from the Universities of Leipzig and Jena, as well as Zittau-Görlitz University of Applied Sciences, has now produced new, nuanced data on this […]
The summers of recent years have been hot, but not exceptional from a meteorological point of view. However, according to researchers at the University of Leipzig, the next extreme summer would far exceed anything we have experienced so far. To be prepared for this, it is important to understand what a ‘summer of the century’ […]
A global analysis of the ranges of 1,758 butterfly species – ten per cent of all known species – revealed that 80 per cent have expanded their ranges and that 79 per cent of all recorded shifts are linked to climate change and extreme weather. The new study, published in *Nature Ecology & Evolution*, also […]
The Magdalene Flood of July 1342 has long been regarded as the most severe flood in Central Europe over the past millennium and as the greatest soil erosion event since the end of the last Ice Age. A new study published in the journal *Nature* now shows: This ‘flood of the century’ was not an […]
In a new study, researchers at the University of Leipzig have investigated the causes of the above-average summer soil drying and rising temperatures in Europe. They found that these are largely due to a change in circulation patterns: These are changes in typical weather patterns, which account for around 55 per cent of the summer […]
Most people in Leipzig are completely unaware that there is a Max Planck Institute for Cognitive and Neural Sciences in the city. Yet this is where researchers are studying the organ that enables us humans to form a picture of the world – our brain. From 1 August, this otherwise very low-key research will be […]
The expansion of renewable energy is a key component of climate policy. Although wind energy generally enjoys broad support, people living near wind turbines experience the consequences of the energy transition first-hand. A new study by researchers at the University of Leipzig now shows that, under certain circumstances, the visibility of wind turbines can reduce […]
An artistic and documentary video installation is being created at the Faculty of Computer Science and Media at the Leipzig University of Applied Sciences (HTWK Leipzig) to mark the Monday demonstrations of 1989 and the Peaceful Revolution in Leipzig. It aims to translate the thoughts, emotions and personal experiences of people from the era of […]
Life satisfaction among young girls in Leipzig has fallen significantly in recent years – more so than among their male peers.
