Earthquake maps for Europe
Earthquakes in Europe can also strike areas north of the Alps. The great meltdown - a challenge for the research community, society and political leaders
The summer ice cap over the Arctic Ocean has been shrinking for over thirty years. AWI researchers led by Professor Rüdiger Gerdes regularly measure the extent and thickness of sea ice and use the data to create models to better predict the role ice plays in the global climate system and to assess the chances and risks associated with the changes in northern regions.Salty sardines instead of cod filet

We see mosquitoes mainly as a nuisance, but in Africa they can carry dangerous diseases and are thus a serious health risk. Explaining climate change to decision-makers
At the Climate Service Center (CSC) of the Helmholtz-Zentrum Geesthacht, interdisciplinary teams of scientists are working on preparing and communicating knowledge about climate change and adaptation strategies.Long-term experiment in Jena: Diversity increases productivity
Helmholtz researchers at the Forschungszentrum Jülich and the UFZ have participated in one of the largest ecological field experiments in the world involving grassland biodiversity. weiterlesen "Long-term experiment in Jena: Diversity increases productivity"
