After 4 years of postdoctoral work at Cologne University, Janna Just has returned to our faculty and Marine Geophysics Section. Here, she once investigated West African Quaternary climate history in the framework of EUROPROX using an innovative multi-proxy endmember approach. At Cologne, she remained faithful to Africa and carried out paleo- and enviromagnetic investigations of several African and European lakes in the framework of Collaborative Research Centre 806 `Our Way to Europe`. As participant of IODP expedition 361 (South African Climates), she could collect excellent new sample material to reconstruct the climate history of Southern Africa on longer timescales at her new/old Bremen magnetics lab. Janna Just takes over the geophysics teaching of Hendrik Müller, who moved for a guest term to Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in March.
