Urban - Rural - Interaction: Navigating through Tipping Points in Coupled Human-Environment Systems

Urban and rural systems are increasingly interconnected, shaping and reshaping human environment interactions. As global tipping points are crossed - whether due to climate change, land-use shifts, or socio-economic transitions - new equilibriums emerge, demanding innovative approaches for adaptation and resilience of the earth system. Earth Observation (EO) technologies offer unprecedented insights into these transformations, enabling real-time monitoring of land-use change, ecosystem shifts, and human impact. By integrating EO in transdisciplinary approaches, we can navigate critical thresholds, monitor anticipated cascading effects to improve risk management, and guide sustainable decision-making. Join us at the “AK Fernerkundung” on 29.9./30.9.2025 in Bochum as we explore how established and innovative technologies in a collaborative research setting can inform the management of coupled human-environment systems in an era of uncertainty. Early career researchers (ECR) are especially encouraged to present their work at the conference. A dedicated peerto-peersession is designed specifically for ECRs to showcase the early stages of their projects, openly discuss challenges, and network with other (PhD) students and postdocs from their field.
