on the outskirts of the historic port city of Greifswald the monumental ruins of a 12th-century monastery stand among a quiet forest the ruins played a key role in the German Romantic movement featuring heavily in the work of Caspar David Friedrich Danish Cisterian monks founded the original abbey in 1199 After the Battle of Bornhöved in 1227 the Danes were forced to withdraw from Northern Germany a historical duchy ruled by the House of Pomerania (also known as the Griffins) The abbey served as the burial place for the last members of the House of Pomerania the abbey was dissolved in 1535 and soon started to fall into disrepair Bricks from the abbey were also repurposed and used to build new buildings during the 17th and 18th centuries.  the German Romantic painter Caspar David Friedrich came across Eldena Abbey and soon began depicting the ruins in a range of works including The Abbey in the Oakwood and Ruins in the Giant Mountains The ruins are easily accessible at any time of the day 2 from Greifswald central station to the ruins An abandoned 6th-century monastery features a medieval map of the known world The last two abbots of this monastery were both executed by Henry VIII A little-known ruin with a convoluted history and a fascinating latrine drainage system Britain’s highest medieval monastery is a remote ruin nestled at the head of a valley 1,240 feet above the sea What was once England's second-richest abbey is now a haunting ruin These medieval monastery ruins are surprisingly overlooked by most tourists This 11th-century Cistercian abbey was once seized by Henry VIII   Farmers have long drained peatlands for agriculture but the dried-out soils release vast quantities of CO2 new initiatives in Germany are not only rewetting peatlands but also creating markets for the native grasses Henning Voigt’s 500-hectare farmland along the Peene River near Germany’s northeastern Baltic Sea coast was well-drained and used as a cattle pasture Voigt made a bold decision: to reverse the course of modern history Peatlands are found around the world where acidic soils and a high water table prevent dead plants from fully decomposing The resulting layers of compressed plants are often many meters thick up to 4.5 meters (more than 14 feet) in the case of Henning Voigt’s land preventing peat degradation is essential for humanity if we are serious about achieving carbon neutrality by mid-century,” says Franziska Tanneberger a peatland scientist and director of the Greifswald Mire Centre a think tank jointly operated by the University of Greifswald and the Institute of Sustainable Development of Landscapes of the Earth Tanneberger calls for swift action to stop peatlands from further drying up “Peatlands cover just 3 percent of Earth’s land surface,“ she says “yet they store more than 500 gigatons of carbon which is twice as much carbon as all the world’s forest biomass combined.” Subscribe to the E360 Newsletter for weekly updates delivered to your inbox. Sign Up The European Union stands out as a global “drainage hotspot,” as 50 percent of its peatlands have been converted to farmland, according to research published in the journal Diversity The share is even higher in northern Germany Scientists agree that the only way to halt this process — and the CO2 emissions it produces — is to stop draining the land and allow the water table to rise to about 10 centimeters (about 4 inches) below the surface Voigt took action when he learned about the impacts of drainage in a joint project with scientists from the nearby University of Greifswald he began turning a 10-hectare grazing plot into a new type of cropland and planted common reed and two species of cattail he can moisten his plot using a solar-powered pump that pulls from an adjacent river This type of intervention needs careful calibration If the water table is too high for longer periods A gas analyzer was placed on a tower in the middle of the plot to document changes in emissions of CO2 Preliminary data indicate a decrease in CO2 emissions into the atmosphere “It’s neither feasible nor fair to simply take that land away from farmers in the name of climate protection,” she says we need to find ways for farmers to earn a living from rewetted peatlands and the sphagnum mosses Tanneberger has teamed up with Claudia Bühler the director of the Michael Otto Environment Foundation which is funded by the German retailer Otto Group to promote a form of marsh farming called “paludiculture.” An initiative called “toMOORow” aims to match farmers with large companies as future buyers of the plants that thrive in peatlands “Plants from peatlands can be used in various mass markets or sustainably sourced horticultural soil,” Tanneberger says and corporate leaders throughout Germany and Europe she highlights what she calls paludiculture’s quadruple benefits: “Through rewetting you save emissions from the land; you can substitute materials that might otherwise have a fossil origin; you can sequester carbon in durable products like furniture; and you can encourage peat formation drained peatlands now under cultivation cover 1.7 million hectares — an area the size of Thuringia Dry peatlands were responsible for around 7 percent of the country’s greenhouse gas emissions in 2022 alone At least 1 million hectares urgently need to be rewetted numerous projects have sprung up to jumpstart this process the federal government launched a 10-year program called “PaludiNet,” to advance wetland agriculture on nine sites across the country The state of Bavaria has launched a scheme called “PeatFarmers” that stabilizes farmers’ incomes with government grants while they are testing new approaches and has pledged to spend 200 million Euros in one large area In an extensive peatland area near Bremen called Devil’s Bog and market peatland biomass together; another start-up or “FuturePeat,” is cultivating moss for the horticultural soil industry in an attempt to replace garden soil extracted from intact bogs Similar moss projects are underway in other European countries and a start-up in northwest England aims to harvest Typha from a rewetted peatland in Lancashire to use as “BioPuff,” an insulation material for winter jackets growing and harvesting marsh plants to make wetland conservation pay is furthest developed in Europe two bright red tractors rumbled across Henning Voigt‘s plot of land — an unusual sight so late in the year drew the attention of neighboring farmers curious to see what was going on the tractors weren’t fitted with wheels but continuous tracks enabling them to traverse the peatland without sinking “I might just as well buy that as my next toy,” one of the farmers quipped — until he learned the price tag for these specialized machines started at 300,000 euros How agroforestry could help revitalize America’s corn belt. Read more Voigt’s land stands as a model for paludiculture “If we can turn these plants into high-value products it could be a game changer for how we manage peatlands,” he told his neighbors Scientists from the University of Greifswald who were present to weigh and examine the yield were ready to be transported to a company that will test them as building insulation scaling the practice to an industrial level for meaningful climate mitigation is a novel endeavor That’s why Bühler and Tanneberger’s “toMOORow” initiative launched its so-called “Alliance of Pioneers,” a coalition of 15 major companies cooperating to create demand for peatland biomass The group includes well-known paper and cardboard producers In one of the organization’s many pilot projects Otto Group in late 2024 incorporated up to 10 percent of peatland biomass — from sedges and rushes — into 100,000 of its cardboard boxes and the company committed to scaling up production after further testing a large German paper manufacturer operating across Europe has also started to add peatland plants to its pulp slurry But such a transition poses substantial challenges as Tanneberger discovered during a recent visit to a sprawling paper factory The factory produces 1.5 million tons of recycled paper annually and is continually on the lookout for new sources of cellulose “We’d love to add biomass from peatlands to our paper feedstock,” manager Sebastian Stockfisch told Tanneberger but so far he finds wetland vegetation too variable delivery trucks would bring homogenous material not wildly different mixes of species,” he said Where marsh crops aren’t planted as monocultures one high-tech option to address this heterogeneity involves using drones to analyze the vegetation with AI guiding tractors to harvest specific species separately A more traditional option is to build post-harvest sorting facilities near farms where plants can be separated by species or properties The company would also need to build a facility where peatland biomass is cleaned and sorted so it can be injected into the slurry made from recycled paper For paludiculture to contribute to emissions reductions Farmers interested in cultivating peatland crops at scale are unlikely to do so without guaranteed demand and other farmers won’t even consider rewetting their fields but our income still depends on growing our crops,” says Gerhard Dittenhauser the spokesperson for a group that produces potatoes the “toMOORow” initiative is developing a digital trading platform for peatland biomass “where companies can post their demands She emphasizes that without substantial supply and demand for peatland products rewetting an area large enough to significantly reduce CO2 emissions won’t be possible On Navajo lands, ancient ways are restoring the parched earth.

New York: Delacorte Press, p. 133 The consequences of Russia’s invasion are visible not only in Ukraine. The Kremlin has set off or exploited a series of crises that face most European countries. New thinking is needed in policies towards Russia, in whatever form it will take after the war. Ukraine’s suffering goes well beyond the front line. With Russia’s invasion of Ukraine we now see our western values under siege, whether we consciously recognise it or not. The invasion by Russian forces of Ukraine from the north, south and east – with the initial aim to take the capital Kyiv – has changed our region, and indeed our world, forever. The situation with Russian threats towards Ukraine once again illustrates the high level of instability in our region. Only a year ago we witnessed the second Nagorno-Karabakh war between Armenia and Azerbaijan. It took at least 5,000 lives and significantly shifted the geopolitics in the South Caucuses. This special issue aims to honour the plight of Belarusians whose democratic choice made in August 2020 was shamelessly snubbed by Alyaksandr Lukashenka. From the social, economic and political points of view, a lot of work still remains for this country. And this is why Ukraine’s story is incomplete. 30 years after the fall of the Soviet Union Our societies are more polarised than ever before, which makes them more susceptible to disinformation, untruth and conspiracy theories. The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed limitations and weaknesses in nearly all countries around the world. Its costs, challenges and the commitment to peace. Uncertainty, volatility and the relationship between Russia and the West. The Black Sea region is quickly becoming a geopolitical battleground which is gaining the interest of major powers, regional players and smaller countries – and the stakes are only getting higher. This issue is dedicated to the 10 year anniversary of the European Union’s Eastern Partnership as well as the 30 years since the 1989 revolutions in Central Europe. The consequences of the emerging multipolar world. This issue takes a special look at the role and responsibility of the public intellectual in Central and Eastern Europe today. In the eastern parts of the European continent, 1918 is remembered not only as the end of the First World War, but also saw the emergence of newly-independent states and the rise of geopolitical struggles which are felt until this day. It often seems, at least from the outside, that Belarus remains isolated from the West and very static in its transformation. Yet, despite its relative isolation, Belarus is indeed changing. The Summer 2018 issue of New Eastern Europe tackles the complexity of para-states in the post-Soviet space.

agriculture plasma technologies are used in many areas nowadays In addition to their ability to heal wounds cold plasmas can also kill multi-resistant bacteria and be used to treat seeds Plasma research at the Leibniz Institute for Plasma Science and Technology (INP) in Greifswald is now to be boosted with millions in funding from the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) and the state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern "The funding enables us to establish an internationally leading location in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern in the field of plasma technologies for agriculture food production and biogenic residues," explains Klaus-Dieter Weltmann Chairman of the Board and Scientific Director of the INP "We are focussing on developing environmentally friendly technologies that not only enrich research and teaching The funding amounts to a "high single-digit million sum" The funds will be used to fill up to twelve positions at the INP with additional specialised staff Three new professorships – for plasma food processing plasma agricultural technology and plasma agricultural sciences – are to be established in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern in 2024 and 2025 "These new professorships are essential to increase the momentum in our research areas and make a sustainable scientific and economic contribution in north-east Germany," explains Weltmann Researchers at the INP also have access to specially equipped laboratories for research on plants and microorganisms which have been rented at the newly opened Z4 – Centre for Life Science and Plasma Technology in Greifswald we can intensively promote the use of plasma technology in agriculture and food production I am convinced that we will make a significant contribution to environmental protection as a result," says Weltmann The INP is Europe's largest non-university research institution in the field of low-temperature plasma physics conducting basic and application-oriented research in order to bring new technologies to market a research cluster has been established in north-east Germany for medical applications of plasma technology such as wound healing Technologies for treating seeds with cold plasma have also been developed at the INP the Greifswald team is researching the use of plasma-treated water which stimulates the metabolic processes of plants and increases their resistance to drought and heat In the recently launched flagship project "Physics for Sustainable Vertical Farming" now wants to pool its experience and results on plasma technologies in order to overcome the challenges of vertical farming in terms of plant health and resource conservation The project will utilise plasma processes that can be used for seeds the plants themselves and for water circulation management a complex plant system will be installed in a 40-foot shipping container – a realistic size for transfer to the application – which extends over 4 floors the Neubrandenburg University of Applied Sciences and commercial enterprises are involved in the project However, the potential of plasma technology is far greater: the shelf life of food can be extended with the help of this technology This saves on preservatives and leads to better yields in biogas plants thanks to the plasma treatment of biomass Plasma technology has also been shown to deliver gentler and more effective results than conventional methods in the production of pharmaceutical raw materials from algae and raw material plants It also has the potential to produce green fuel from the carbon dioxide produced during plasma synthesis Dresden was the center of Caspar David Friedrich's life for over 40 years The famous Romantic artist is being celebrated here on the 250th anniversary of his birth - hundreds of people are dressing in the style of his time women in long gowns with hoods: hundreds of people celebrate the 250th birthday of the master of German Romanticism in the heart of Dresden on Thursday The area on Neumarkt is filled with people who seem to have sprung from Romantic paintings where the draughtsman and painter Caspar David Friedrich (1774-1840) lived for over four decades wants to win a bet with his native city of Greifswald on the Baltic coast "It looks fantastic," enthused Dresden's Lord Mayor Dirk Hilbert at the start on the stage in front of the Frauenkirche Greifswald has challenged Dresden's adopted city in the Friedrich Year 2024 the aim is to see who can bring more people dressed in the style of Romanticism to the city's central square "We've been looking forward to this day for weeks," said Hilbert The first glimpse of the competition made him feel positive "It's already looking great here." By 7 p.m. the count was down to who was dressed in 19th century style Long queues formed at the counting stations in the afternoon heat: Women in long skirts with blouses and colorful shawls over their shoulders or ankle-length dresses frock coats and whiskers like Friedrich wore and girls in pleated skirts and blouses with neat bows in their hair And women in breezy summer dresses were also part of the open-air spectacle with a sun hat and band at the last-minute station Dresden bakers cut a birthday cake baked with sea buckthorn from Friedrich's homeland and handed it out by the slice The wagers included a city tour of Greifswald for Elbe residents on a specific day and the invitation of three betting couples from the coastal city to the Dresden Semperoper Ball in 2025 The former royal seat of Dresden was the center of the draughtsman and painter's life from 1798 until Friedrich's death in 1840 There he studied the paintings of the old masters in the picture gallery He also found motifs in the surrounding nature for example on hikes in Saxon and Bohemian Switzerland and composed them into his paintings - which are considered masterpieces of German Romanticism © 2009 -

blood samples 26 kilometers (16 miles) between Greifswald and Wolgast The flights were carried out by Greifswald University Medical Center in cooperation with DRF Luftrettung and Wingcopter as part of the MV|LIFE|DRONE Challenge (MVLD-Challenge) project of the hospital’s Department of Anesthesiology funded by the German Federal Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Energy Infrastructure and Digitalization of Mecklenburg-West Pomerania is a partnership between University Medical Center Greifswald and DRF Luftrettung The goal of the project is to improve structures of regional emergency care by integrating unmanned aerial vehicles (UAS Unmanned Aerial Systems) into the rescue chain and into medical emergency transports The flights beyond the pilots’ visual line of sight (BVLOS) carried a pneumatic tube including 250 grams of blood samples The Wingcopter completed the 26-kilometer route in an average of 18 minutes nearly twice as fast as ground-based transport The use of Wingcopter drones could significantly speed up emergency medical care in rural areas and help save lives In the event of a blood transfusion being necessary at short notice blood samples from Wolgast District Hospital must be transported to Greifswald University Hospital for analysis in order to determine the appropriate donor blood we have demonstrated that we can also improve medical care and quality of life in rural areas in Germany,” said Ansgar Kadura “With our new unmanned aerial vehicle this can be carried out even more efficiently in the future We look forward to continued collaboration with the project team at the Department of Anesthesiology as part of the MV|LIFE|DRONE Challenge and beyond.” The Greifswald University Medical Center seeks to establish permanent flight

representing different departments When an innovative solution like 3D systems are newly introduced to operating theatres an initial familiarisation phase is always required for the medical staff Operating headwear must therefore be designed to be as intuitive and ergonomic as possible to increase acceptance especially among older generations of doctors Consultant at the Surgical Clinic and Outpatient's Department at Greifswald University Hospital sees a further challenge in the basic image quality of 3D viewing which often does not quite reach the standard of 2D monitors with HD resolution because the HD quality of modern 2D screens compensates for—and goes some way to mitigating—the loss of the third dimension surgeons seek the exact same quality in three-dimensional systems as they can find in 2D solutions with HD resolution the surgical department at Greifswald University Hospital has used an Olympus 3D camera system in combination with the HMS-3000MT Head Mount Display system from Sony Professional which reproduces endoscopic and laparoscopic images in stereoscopic 3D Three-dimensional systems are currently used in Greifswald primarily for procedures with a high degree of difficulty as well as for standard operations such as those performed on hernias within the framework of a clinical study The medical teams use the new technology around six to eight times per week for gynaecology and urology as well as for general and paediatric surgery although younger generations of doctors have grown up with 3D technology the older generation of practitioners are sometimes sceptical towards operating using stereoscopic systems he believes that the constant experience sharing within surgical community confirms that suturing is significantly easier when viewing in 3D — and that stereoscopic visualisation using the Sony Medical Head Mount Display makes more focused work possible one of the primary advantages of Sony´s Head Mount Display system is that you don´t need to monitor several surgical displays simultaneously while performing the operation Using the high quality optics of the HMS-3000MT surgeons benefit from a large horizontal viewing angle of 45 degrees enabling them to have a more natural visual experience An individually adjustable headband strap also helps to ensure that the system fits and can be worn comfortably even for long periods

The rescue helicopter “Christoph 47,” an Airbus EC145 of the DRF Luftrettung base in Greifswald is the first in Germany to not only carry blood but also plasma in its operations. Together the DRF Luftrettung and the University Medical Center Greifswald have succeeded in establishing a scientifically proven procedure that enables the rapid transport of blood products by helicopter. This is particularly important for emergency patients with massive blood loss who can be rescued by rapid blood and blood products directly on the scene our helicopters are often the first to rescue seriously injured or diseased emergency patients. After successfully testing the procedure we therefore intend to carry blood and coagulation products as part of the helicopter at selected DRF air rescue stations,” said Jörg Braun How important this rapid deployment in an emergency is especially in rural regions such as Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania becomes clear: “On an island like Rügen transport to the appropriate clinic takes well over ten minutes,” said Gregor Jenichen emergency physician at Greifswald University Medical Center. “This time is crucial: blood products that are very seriously injured in the field, can therefore be life-saving.” Timm Laslo from the district of Vorpommern-Greifswald as a carrier of the ground-based rescue service welcomes the establishment of this project. Thus the quality of care can be further increased Until the start of the project was possible in real operation at the station of the DRF Luftrettung in Greifswald the influence of the special storage and transport conditions in the helicopter on the quality of the blood components and the coagulation factor was examined in numerous tests “With the now developed procedure for the safe use of blood products in air rescue we are improving the emergency medical care of the population sustainably” Director of the DRF Luftrettung. The Foundation of the DRF Luftrettung had supported the research in addition to the practical cooperation also financially in the amount of 15,000 euros and website in this browser for the next time I comment Δdocument.getElementById( "ak_js_1" ).setAttribute( "value" Bell 525 Walkaround: The First Commercial Fly-by-Wire Helicopter Bell 505 Contact seller for price Year: 2022 Click on the button below to send an email to our team and we will get to it as soon as possible Have a story idea you would like to suggest
