Soil Sciences (Institution)
The Research Unit focuses on the question how biogeochemical processes in forest soils, e.g. nutrient supply or organic carbon mineralization, are affected by external forces, such as pollutant transfer and climatic changes. The group investigates how forest dynamics feed back on soil physics, soil chemistry and soil biology. On a micro scale the research group develops experimental and...

Institute of Soil Landscape Research (Institution)
The Institute of Soil Landscape Research' studies structures, processes and functions of soil landscapes. We understand by soil landscapes soil associations, evolved over long time, in the recent landscape-ecological process structure. The priority of our work is put on the development of innovative methods and their cross-scale integration.
