MOSYRUR (Analyses of agricultural nutrient problems in the Rur catchment) (Project)
The objective of the study are status-quo and policy analyses of diffuse nutrient emissions by agriculture into the river Rur. New findings from basic research are used to improve the modelling of the relationship between agricultural nutrient emissions and nutirient entries into water bodies.

Renewable resources and land use. Integration of bioenergy in a sustainable energy concept (NaRoLa) (Project)
How and to what extent can biomass contribute to a sustainable energy supply in Germany? The NaRoLa-Project analyses this question taking rising oil prices, a high dependence of the energy supply on imports and the requirement to reduce greenhouse gas emissions into account.

Quantification of regional climate changes on German agriculture and assessment of adaptation strategies with the Regionalised Agricultural and Environmental Information System RAUMIS (Project)
Climate changes have different regional impacts on agriculture in Germany. The LandCaRE-Project examines these impacts and possible adaptation strategies under different global framework conditions.

Drought effects on young trees (Open field laboratory, greenhouse) (Project)
Extreme weather events like drought will impact the growth and survival of tree regeneration of our major species in Germany. However, the knowledge about the reaction of young trees to drought and their adaptive capacity is limited. Therefore, experimental research is urgently needed. Our research is aimed at determining the critical limits of drought adaptation in young trees of the major tree...

Environmental effects of short rotation coppice (SRC) - recording, assessment and derivation of recommendations for a sustainable management (ERA-Net Bioenergy RATING-SRC), project: plant diversity (Project)
Short rotation coppice (SRC) stands can considerably contribute to secure bioenergy resources and thus to protect the climate. Less is known about the effects of SRC stands on the plant diversity of former arable land. RATING-SRC (Reducing environmental impacts of Short Rotation Coppice (SRC) through evidence-based integrated decision support tools) was an international ERA-NET Bioenergy project...

National implementatiom of the UNECE Convention on Long-range Transboundary Air Pollution (Effects): ICP Modelling&Mapping NFC; Heavy Metals (Critical Loads/Deposition); Nitrogen and Acidity (Deposition); Nitrogen (Effects); Material corrosion; critical Ozone fluxes (Project)
The essential aim of the project is to register and evaluate the risk potential of atmospheric air pollution inputs on the national scale, and to process modelling and mapping results for use in budgeting and quantitatively estimating the loads caused by air pollutant input on regional and sub-regional scale. Working results will be made available to support the development of strategies to...

Oceanography & climate: Analyses of hydrographic data and model output as basis for studies on climate impacts on distribution and recruitment succes of commercially important fish stocks (Project)
Coupling of hydrographic measurements and model data to investigate the influence of variations in hydrographic conditions on population dynamics of fish stocks

Oceanography & climate: Monitoring of physical oceanographic parameters for the assessment of climatic influences on fish stocks in the North Sea Atlantic and North Atlantic (Project)
As a result of global climatic changes, distribution areas and population dynamics of North Atlantic fish stocks are changing. This has impacts on the utilisation of these stocks by the fishing industry. Long-term time series of oceanographic parameters around Greenland reveal significant correlations with changes in fish stocks. In the North Sea, the climatic signal is weaker and so far only...

Integrated Carbon Observation System – Co-ordination of the German contribution (Project)
ICOS will build an infrastructure for co-ordinated, integrated, long-term high-quality observational data of the greenhouse gas balance of Europe and of adjacent key regions of Siberia and Africa. vTI co-ordinates the preparation of the German contribution to ICOS, in particular of central laboratory facilities and the German observational networks in terrestrial ecosystems, atmosphere and...
