Atmospheric Transport and Chemistry in Forest Ecosystems

The joined DFG Project Group EGER (Exchange processes in mountainous Regions)
in cooperation with the Bayreuth Center of Ecology and environmental Research (BayCEER)and the University of Bayreuth.
The conference is supported and partially funded by the DFG (Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft.

Intention ·
Intensive field experiments were performed in 2007 and 2008 within the joint effort of the EGER research group to study the diurnal cycles of energy, water, and reactive and non-reactive trace substances in the soil-vegetation-boundary-layer interaction of a mountainous forest ecosystem. The intention of this meeting is to provide a venue for micrometeorological and biogeochemical scientists to meet and discuss especially the ideas and results of the EGER-group and ongoing matters focused on forest ecosystems. The conference will be of interest to those who work on refined methodological approaches regarding the problem of scale interactions and who work to gain additional knowledge regarding the spatial patterns of the biological, chemical, and physical parameters driving the energy and matter fluxes in a forest ecosystem. This includes homogeneous and heterogeneous chemistry of reactive nitrogen and biogenic trace gases in laboratory systems and ecosystems. We invite the entire bio- and geosciences community to present and examine all aspects of atmospheric transport and biogeochemistry in Forest Ecosystems.

Search / advanced search of the idw archives
Combination of search terms

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.

Brackets

You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).

Phrases

Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.

Selection criteria

You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).

If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
