The participants of the JBL expedition 2015 PACIFIC – AUSTRALIA have been decided

On 15 September 2014 the registration deadline ended for the big Australia expedition 2015, which will take the JBL research team and the participants from the kelp forests of California, to Tahiti in the South Seas, to the various habitats of Australia (Great Barrier Reef, rainforest in the northeast, the Outback and the Kakadu National Park in the north).

About 50 applications for this very special trip arrived at JBL. The applications were classified in repeaters and new applicants, because new applicants had priority.

Nevertheless we decided to give four repeaters the chance to come with us again. And so A. Leuthäuser, M. Kahmann, M. Schmölzing and A. Geisler were lucky for the second time. From the big group of new applicants, S. Pages, R. Wrobel, T. Strubelt, N. Lechleiter, H.-J. Buben and M. and S. Figura will be coming with us.

On 8 October 2015 the JBL expedition team will set off with many research tasks in their luggage on the seventh round-the-world JBL expedition. Those who couldn’t be with us this time will have the next opportunity in 2016. Further information will follow shortly!

PUSH messages from JBL

What are PUSH messages? As part of the W3C standard, web notifications define an API for end-user notifications that are sent to the user's desktop and/or mobile devices via the browser. Notifications appear on the end devices as they are familiar to the end user from apps installed on the device (e.g. emails). Notifications appear on the end user’s device, just like an app (e.g. for emails) installed on the device.

These notifications enable a website operator to contact its users whenever they have a browser open - it doesn’t matter whether the user is currently visiting the website or not.

To be able to send web push notifications, all you need is a website with a web push code installed. This allows brands without apps to take advantage of many of the benefits of push notifications (personalised real-time communications at just the right moment).

Web notifications are part of the W3C standard and define an API for end user notifications. A notification makes it possible to inform the user about an event, such as a new blog post, outside the context of a website.

JBL GmbH & Co. KG provides this service free of charge, and it is easy to activate or deactivate.
