Description

At the Helmholtz Centre for Environmental Research - UFZ scientists research the causes and consequences of far-reaching environmental changes. Their task is to deliver knowledge, instruments and policies concerning the complex systems and relationships in the environment within limited timeframe for use by politicians, industry and society, in order to help them to make decisions and solve specific environmental problems. Apart from practical needs, environmental research must also meet general scientific needs. This is a two-fold challenge with the requirement that todayŽs environmental research dominated by natural sciences is increasingly interlinked with human and social sciences as well as environmental law.
