Emerging Field Forest-Water Dynamics in Climate Change

The research focus of the Emerging Field Water Research initially centered on the topic of water extremes. Over the course of the current Excellence Strategy funding phase, this focus has been further sharpened. Currently, research is focussed on the interactions between forests and the water balance. Based on a deeper understanding of forest-water interactions, well-founded adaptation strategies for future forests and the preservation of water availability will be developed. To reflect this thematic focus, the Emerging Field Water Research is now officially renamed Forest-Water Dynamics in Climate Change.
