Büsgen Institute, Department of Bioclimatology
The Department Bioclimatology deals in research and teaching with the interaction between forest and atmosphere. It is the measuring, modeling and analysis of energy flows and biogeochemical cycles in forest ecosystems and their response to climate change and land use changes in the foreground.
