- * Former Department Biogeochemical Systems *
These frozen webpages document the final state of the former department "Biogeochemical Systems" (in 2020). With the retirement of Martin Heimann (March 2017) the department was integrated into the new department "Biogeochemical Systems" under the leadership of Sönke Zaehle (May 2020). More information can be found on the home page of the department Biogeochemical Signals and on the home page of the Emeritus Group Biogeochemical Systems. |
- * Mission Statement *
![]() Biogeochemical cycles are represented in the atmosphere by several important greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide. In the Department of Biogeochemical Systems we develop methods to measure these gases in situ and by remote sensing, we expand the measurement network to remote hot-spot regions such as Siberia and Amazonia, and we develop and apply numerical models to quantify the large-scale sources and sinks of the greenhouse gases. + + + more Department information + + +
