Little is known, however, about the practice of scientists in TSS, especially those early in their career. Our objectives were to identify these practices and to outline the needs and challenges for early career scientists in TSS. Three major challenges were identified: (1) TSS demands openness to a plurality of research designs, theories, and methods, while also requiring shared, explicit, and recursive use of TSS characteristics; (2) researchers in TSS teams must make decisions about trade-offs between achievements of societal and scientific impact, acknowledging that focusing on the time-consuming former aspect is difficult to integrate into a scientific career path; and (3) although generalist researchers are increasingly becoming involved in such TSS research projects, supporting the integration of social, natural, and engineering sciences, specialized knowledge is also required.}, language = {en} } @techreport{ThonickeRahnerArnethetal., author = {Thonicke, Kirsten and Rahner, Eva and Arneth, Almut and Bartkowski, Bartosz and Bonn, Aletta and D{\"o}hler, Christian and Finger, Robert and Freitag, Jens and Grosch, Rita and Grossart, Hans-Peter and Gr{\"u}tzmacher, Kim and Hartman Scholz, Amber and H{\"a}user, Christoph and Hickler, Thomas and H{\"o}lker, Franz and J{\"a}hnig, Sonja C. and Jeschke, Jonathan and Kassen, Rees and Kastner, Thomas and Kramer-Schadt, Stephanie and Krug, Cornelia and Lakner, Sebastian and Loft, Lasse and Matzdorf, Bettina and Meakins, Felicity and De Meester, Luc and Monaghan, Michael T. and M{\"u}ller, Daniel and Overmann, J{\"o}rg and Quaas, Martin and Radchuk, Viktoriia and Reyer, Christopher and Roos, Christian and Scholz, Imme and Schroer, Sibylle and Sioen, Giles Bruno and Sommer, Simone and Sommerwerk, Nike and Tockner, Klement and Turk, Zachary and Warner, Barbara and W{\"a}tzold, Frank and Wende, Wolfgang and Veenstra, Tonjes and Voort, Hein van de}, title = {10 Must-Knows aus der Biodiversit{\"a}tsforschung}, publisher = {Potsdam-Institut f{\"u}r Klimafolgenforschung e.V.
