Mountain research (Ecology 🏞️)

Mountain research, traditionally also known as orology, is a field of research that regionally concentrates on the Earth's surface's part covered by mountain environments.

60 participants and 25 lecturers from twelve countries have finished today an inspiring week at our Franco-German summer school “Open(ing) Science? Digital Humanities in Area Studies” @ @recentglobe. Learning and discussing together as an area studies community about DH methods and tools, open science, ethics and AI. We also had much fun 😎. Organization: A Franco-German team from Leipzig & Paris, greatly supported by the CNRS and DFH-UFA.

@tillgrallert It was a great pleasure to have you with us @recentglobe, Till! Participants really enjoyed your workshop. And what considers myself, I've now understood how plain-text editing works and how to use it. Thank you!
I look forward to our future cooperation, next stop: editing of our area histories section for the @NFDI4Memory-textbook on digital propaedeutics :).

@Mareike2405 It was great to have you with us @recentglobe, Mareike. Thank you for your inspiring workshop, and your roundtable participation yesterday. Participants highly appreciated it - among other things your call for the open science revolution :) Have safe travels back to Paris.

@ALLEA These recommendations are useful and overdue, thank you!
The report unfortunately seems not to take in account the challenges of DH researchers that deal, for example, with languages with non-latin characters or different understandings of data sharing/archiving by local cooperation partners in their field work. Did you consider these questions?

Drafted a contribution for a roundtable on reconceptualizing #medieval studies organized by Tian Xiaofei at the Middle Period Conference at Yale in June. It's titled Fluid Boundaries & the Art of In-Betweenness: Practicing Middle Period History Globally

This flew out of my pen:
#areastudies #medieval @histodons

The demographer's dilemma:

Bc #PopStudies institutions--your #PopCenter, #PAA2023, #DemographyJournal & etc--are your core intellectual home, you want them to make a lot of space for "demographer's demography," bc if that stuff doesn't happen there, there's nowhere else in the world it will happen

&

bc #demography as a field is small, small, small, you want your institutions to have broad ownership so they're vibrant and sustainable and fun
