Beschreibung
At the Institute of Bio
- and Geosciences
  • Agrosphere (IBG3) we conduct research to improve our understanding of biogeochemical and hydrological processes in terrestrial systems. Specific studies focus on environmental controls on biogeochemical cycling of elements, the analysis of exchange processes and nutrient dynamics in the soilplantatmosphere continuum. A combination of experiments, modelling and innovative observation technologies is used to bridge the gap between model, process and management scale. Its research contributes to the sustainable and resourceconserving use of soils and water and to the quantification of the effect of climate and land use change on terrestrial ecosystems. We offer an excellent, interdisciplinary working environment in the areas of experiments and modelling.
