We cordially invite you to participate in our program event “Climate Change in the Arctic” and gain exciting insights into our research.

You can look forward to videos and photos of our work, an interactive quiz, and a mini-experiment where you can measure greenhouse gases yourself.

The Arctic is one of the regions of the world most affected by climate change and, at the same time, plays a key role in global climate change. The thawing of permafrost can lead to increased emissions of greenhouse gases—a process that, in turn, drives global warming.

Find out how we investigate changes in Arctic permafrost landscapes during measurement campaigns, for example, by measuring greenhouse gases such as methane or carbon dioxide.

We’ll show how we use our measurements and model simulations to better understand the interactions between the sensitive Arctic ecosystems and ongoing climate change. 

We look forward to seeing you and exchanging ideas with you!
