Mission
Extreme environments are particularly sensitive to climate change and are transforming at accelerated rates. This can have important global repercussions. EERL aims to create integrated process understanding by investigating interactions between the atmosphere, cryosphere, biosphere, ocean, land and anthroposphere. The goal is to characterize climate-change relevant and vertically-resolved processes that are d
Véronique Ivonne M. PatteeuwTeaching & PhD Courses Architecture in the age of acceleration AR-363 This course examines twelve theoretical positions for an architecture in the age of acceleration. By situating these positions in a recent history of architecture and placing them in a current context, this course aims to grasp their relevance for contemporary practice.
