First day back in the lab after the summer feels like birthday presents arrived early 🥳
We now have a second new BET (specific surface area), operated together with @umweltbundesamt.bsky.social and our "IRMS project" from Nuuk, Greenland - both are now waiting for the gasses to be connected 😉

Everyone has a different routine doing editorial and review work. Whereas you prefer to read your e-mails the next Monday, others like to do it on weekends. That‘s part of a work-life balance too, having the freedom to not read e-mails at times you reserve for family or leisure.
