Research Projects
The current projects address various topics of urban climatology and climate adaptation, regional climatology, as well as radiation and energy fluxes.
MW3 |
The aim of the MW3 project is to develop a standardized monitoring system and protocol in order to record and analyze growth responses of important Central European forest tree species with a focus on climatic extremes. |

CIDY |
The CIDY project uses data on the inner city of Aachen to lay the foundations for a simulation tool to map inner city dynamics. |
OpenGeoResearch | OpenGeoResearch is a participative online platform where spatially localizable questions on climate, environment and urban issues can be discussed in a community and also answered by experts. |
ArGEnT | At ArGEnT, research is being conducted to quantify the net carbon exchange between ecosystems and the atmosphere using an improved eddy covariance technique. |
ComRadE | ComRadE is a study comparing radiative and carbon fluxes in three ecosystems in Germany, Canada and Costa Rica in an international collaboration. |
SOLUTION | The SOLUTION project is concerned with determining the role of forest cover and precipitation distribution on chemical denudation rates in a small headwater catchment. |
