Closed projects

MiKlip

Mittelfristige Klimaprognosen, PastLand

This is a research project of the Bundesministerium fuer Bildung und Forschung. In the Module A we are part of PastLand.

ACCESS

Arctic climate change Economy and Society

ACCESS is an European Project supported within the Ocean of Tomorrow call of the European Commission Seventh Framework Programme. Its main objective is to assess climatic change impacts on marine transportation (including tourism), fisheries, marine mammals and the extraction of oil and gas in the Arctic Ocean. ACCESS is also focusing on Arctic governance and strategic policy options.


OPTIRAD

OPTImisation environment for joint retrieval of multi-sensor RADiances

This is an ESA funded project to improve land surface data assimlilation of Earth Observations.


DAMOCLES

Developing Arctic Modeling and Observing Capabilities for Long-term Environmental Studies

This EC/FP6 research project is an integrated ice-atmosphere-ocean monitoring and forecasting system designed for observing, understanding and quantifying climate changes in the Arctic. DAMOCLES is specifically concerned with the potential for a significantly reduced sea ice cover, and the impacts this might have on the environment and on human activities, both regionally and globally.


GeoCarbon

This EC/FP6 project is an European Commision FP6 research project with a global perspective. It has the ultimate aim to lay the foundations for an operational Global Carbon Observing and Analysis System in support to both science and policy.


CarboOcean

This is an European Commision FP6 research project.


EO-LDAS

A generic land data assimilation scheme will be developed which will have manifold benefits for the EO data exploitation and thus supports the expansion of EO user communities.


CarbonFlux

The carbon cycle is central to the Earth system, being inextricably coupled with climate, the water cycle, nutrient cycles and the production of biomass by photosynthesis on land and in the oceans. CarbonFlux will contribute to the efforts of the Global Carbon Project (GCP) by exploring and quantifying the incremental value of Earth observation products of the biosphere, hydrosphere and atmosphere on the quality of global scale biophysical and biogeochemical models through multiple constraint assimilation studies. Particular emphasize shall be put on a better understanding of the links and feedbacks of the carbon and hydrologic cycles. The Earth observation products to be considered shall be fAPAr or LAI, soil moisture and total column CO2.


SMOS-NEE

The aim of the ESA SMOS-NEE project is the development of a Level 4 Net Ecosystem Exchange (NEE) product based on the assimilation of Level 3 Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) soil moisture into the Carbon Cycle Data Assimilation System (CCDAS).


IRO-2

Eisvorhersage und Eis-Routen-Optimierung

The economic and safe running of the northern sea routes as well as the transport of raw materials and the supply of Arctic ports with goods during months with light ice conditions requires a reliable and detailed spatial as well as temporally prediction of ice to optimize route guidance.


IMECC

Infrastructure for Measurements of the European Carbon Cycle

IMECC is an Integrated Infrastructure Initiative (I³) project. under the Sixth Framework Programme of the European Commission. The IMECC project aims to build the infrastructure for a coordinated, calibrated and accessible dataset for characterizing the carbon balance of Europe.

RS-CCDAS

Remote Sensing Input for regional to global CO2 flux modelling

The key objective of this project is the use of Earth Observations in a state-of-the-art Carbon Cycle Data Assimilation System (CCDAS), in order to constrain the quantitative formulation of the processes regulating the terrestrial uptake of carbon.


A-SCOPE

Advanced Space Carbon and climate Observation of Planet Earth

The aim of this project is quantifying the benefit of A-scope data for reducing uncertainties in current and future terrestrial carbon uptake.


WACMOS

Water Cycle Observation Multi-mission Strategy

The aim of the WACMOS project is to develop and validate novel and improved multi-mission based products to enhance currently available global water datasets maximizing the use of ESA data.

The WACMOS-ET project aims to advance the development of land evaporation estimates at global and regional scales. Its main objective is the derivation, validation and inter-comparison of a group of existing evaporation retrieval algorithms driven by a common forcing data set.


THOR

Thermohaline Overturning – at Risk?

THOR will establish an operational system that will monitor and forecast the development of the North Atlantic THC on decadal time scales, and access its stability, and the risk of a breakdown in a changing climate. Together with pre-existing data sets, ongoing observations within the project will allow precise quantitative monitoring of the Atlantic THC and its sources. For the first time, this will allow an assessment of the strength of the Atlantic THC and of its sources in a consistent manner, and it will provide early identification of any systematic changes in the THC that might occur.


MegaDesign

Aerodynamic simulation and optimization in aircraft design

Aerodynamische Simulation und Optimierung in der Flugzeugentwicklung

Das Projetes soll das Potenzial der numerischen Simulation und Optimierung für die aerodynamische und multidisziplinäre Entwicklung von Flugzeugen umfassender erschließen und industriell nutzbar machen.
