Understanding the Earth system
The focus of our research is to gain a deep understanding of the interactions between the litho-, pedo-, hydro-, atmo-, bio- and anthroposphere in order to analyse and predict global environmental changes. This understanding helps us to address important issues such as the environmentally friendly use of resources and the impact of environmental and climate change on our lives.
To this end, we use experimental methods, state-of-the-art analytics, imaging methods and remote sensing as well as digital methods, modelling and machine learning.
High-profile research projects
Here we list in particular (joint) projects at the IESW that are characterised by an extraordinarily large funding volume or a particular social significance as well as by cooperation with various national or international partners in research and industry.
