The main research areas of physical geography are in the fields of climate science and environmental sciences. In terms of methods, they are based on the development of new technologies as well as on the combination of analytical methods, measurements, and different modeling approaches. The latter range from geostatistical and geochemical models to supercomputer-based simulations with physical, numerical models.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

All focus areas at our institute, in particular, aim to gain a better understanding of the processes that govern the various systems of interest; this unifying effort goes hand in hand with establishing links to other environmental, socio-ecological, and socio-economic aspects on different timescales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
