I just submitted my fourth and last #PhD paper, this time to @… and @… 🥳
Update:

My cancellable view is that you should not be allowed to buy a DB Deutschland-Ticket if you don't know who Karl May is and recognize the name "Winnetou".

Modeling the control of West Nile virus using mosquito reduction methods, vaccination of equids, and human behavioral adaptation to the usage of personal protective equipment
West Nile virus (WNV) is a mosquito-borne virus of the genus Flaviviridae circulating between mosquitoes and birds, while humans, equids, and other mammals are dead-end hosts. Several preventive measures are recommended to reduce the WNV burden among different hosts. In this work, we develop a mathematical framework for evaluating the theoretical effectiveness of various WNV control methods in Germany. We consider mosquito reduction methods such as the physical removal and destruction of potent…

All over Germany it's the #LangeNachtDerAstronomie today, the Long Night of Astronomy with events - all listed in https://www.lange-nacht-der-astronomie.de with a selection for the west of the country detailled in https://www.facebook.com/astronomiewest/posts/pfbid04jsDjCpvPUZv7dEwePnig4MZDQwBxLBLr6qQBo8cTRPNJNrSmpS482W7fJ6zhL54l - often beginning in the afternoon already and many independent of the weather. In addition there will be a live stream with contributions by over a dozen institutions about both practical and research astronomy from 17:00 to 21:15 UTC on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9q5UdhWd-l4

Frankfurt airport now hosting 17.4 MW vertical PV plant
Next2Sun constructed the photovoltaic system with 37,000 vertically mounted solar modules. It stretches over a length of 2.8 km along the airport's Runway West.

Modeling the impact of temperature and bird migration on the spread of West Nile virus
West Nile virus (WNV) is a climate-sensitive mosquito-borne arbovirus circulating between mosquitoes of the genus Culex and birds, with a potential spillover to humans and other mammals. Recent trends in climatic change, characterized by early and/or prolonged summer seasons, increased temperatures, and above-average rainfall, probably facilitated the spread of WNV in Europe, including Germany. In this work, we formulate a spatial WNV model consisting of a system of parabolic partial differenti…
