Fields of research

1. Ecosystem Function Interactions between living organisms and their abiotic environment are highly complex. The investigation of ecosystem functioning is the key to sustainable management. The adverse effects of contaminants and climate change can only be estimated on the basis of ecosystem research. >> Projects

1.1 Nutrient cycling in ecosystems and landscapes of the temperate zone >> Projects   1.2 Analysis of tropical terrestrial ecosystems >> Projects   1.3 Management strategies for sustainability >> Projects   1.4 Matter exchange atmosphere - ecosystem >> Projects   1.5 Organismic Interactions >> Projects   1.6 Microorganisms in global nutrient cycles >> Projects   1.7 Others >> Projects

2. Biodiversity and Nature Conservation Knowledge of ecosystem species and the interactions between biodiversity and ecosystem functioning is necessary to preserve the biological diversity of genes, species, and habitats. Recent changes in biological diversity can only be assessed when considering the natural variability of biocoenoses. >> Projects

2.1 Ecosystems in temperate zones >> Projects   2.2 Ecosystems in tropical zones >> Projects   2.3 Biodiversity Informatics >> Projects   2.4 Other >> Projects

3. Environmental Pollution and Remediation Human society emits a variety of unnatural and harmful substances into the environment. Their pathways through air, soil, and water and their impact on living organisms are often unknown. It is crucial to understand the extent of environmental pollution and assess its impact. This knowledge is needed to develop concepts for prevention and remediation. >> Projects

3.1 Trace gases and particles in the atmosphere >> Projects   3.2 Substances in ground- and surface-water >> Projects   3.3 Dupsites and post-mining landscapes >> Projects   3.4 Harmful substances in soils >> Projects   3.5 Other >> Projects

4. Climate Change Research In order to estimate the extent of global warming it is essential to know the exact sources and sinks for climate-relevant trace gases. The effects of climate change on ecosystems and human society must be reliably assessed in order to predict future regional climate and its consequences. With this information meaningful adaptation strategies can be developed. >> Projects

4.1 Regional Climate Change in Bavaria >> Projects   4.2 Climate Change and Ecosystems >> Projects   4.3 Climate Change and Biodiversity >> Projects   4.4 Paleoecology and Georachives >> Projects
