Research and working topics
- Measurement of conventional meteorological variables
- Energy fluxes
- H2O and CO2 exchange
- Water balance
- Regional climate studies
- Characterisation of land surface characteristics and their spatial and temporal variability
- Determination of the radiation and energy fluxes at the ground and at the upper edge of the atmosphere
- Influence of the clouds on the radiation field with consideration of the four-dimensional cloud bank structure
- Climate of vegetation areas with consideration of the feedback with the atmosphere
- Regionalization of climatic characteristics by coupling of atmosphere models and GIS
