Supervision in cooperation with the University Bremen, POLMAR and the Postgraduate Programme Environmental Physics (pep). See also the former school: Earth System Science Research School (ESSReS).
We cannot teach people anything; we can only help them discover it within themselves (Galileo Galilei) (some hints for thesis writing and for the committees ). Here are some hints! Motto: 路漫漫其修远兮,吾将上下而求索. The road is long, I will go up and down to find a way. This stems from a “2000 years old” ancient poetry 离骚(Li Sao)by the most famous ancient Chinese poet 屈原 (Qu Yuan).
