Bioclimatology Göttingen
@bioclimatology.bsky.social
Bioclimatology lab at the University of Göttingen/Germany led by Alexander Knohl. We research the interaction between land ecosystems and the atmosphere in a changing environment.
Another great talk by Dennis Baldocchi on his work at the wetlanda in the Sacramento delta in California. Lots of interest from the German wetland community.

Dennis Baldocchi gave a stimulating talk at the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities on the Demise of K-theory with nice references to the pioniering work by Ludwig Prandtl and Theodor von Karman on boundary layer theory done here on Göttingen 100 years ago.

Another two days of great talks and discussions at the Baldocchi Symposium in Göttingen. Lots of fun at the visits of our flux towers Reinshof and Hainich.
Thanks everyone for coming and making it a wonderful event.

First day of the Baldocchi Symposium in Göttingen. More than 40 scientists are discussing fluxes anywhere and anytime. Great atmosphere!

Congratulation to José Ángel for defending his PhD!! Great work on CO2, H2O and energy fluxes of agroforestry systems. Ivan Mammarella (Uni Helsinki) and Annette Menzel (TU Munich) joined as external examiners. Afterwards we had the traditional walk to the Gänse Liesel fountain in the city center.

Happy to announce we’ve set up a new eddy covariance flux tower at a forest restoration site in the Harz Mountains. The area was clear-cut after a bark beetle outbreak and reforested with broadleaves. A unique opportunity to investigate ecosystem fluxes and forest resilience across recovery stages.

Peatlands are under pressure due to ongoing degradation, pushing the global biome from net sink to source. At #DBG2025 in Tübingen, we demonstrated how vegetation shifts affect carbon fluxes of a mountain peatland and outlined methods to downscale ecosystem methane fluxes to the plant-species scale.

Visit of Johannes Laubach from the Landscare Research Group in New Zealand, an alumni from the bioclimatology group in Goettingen in the 90s. Great to reconnect.

Great discussions on eddy covariance measurement for CO2 and H2O isotopologues with our partners from FZ Jülich at the annual meeting of our project ISOMONEAE as part of the ITMS (www.itms-germany.de)

Welcome to Göttingen: Biometeorologist Prof. Dennis Baldocchi (UC Berkeley) joins the bioclimatology group at @uni-goettingen.de as Gauss Professor for two months. In early October, an international symposium on land–atmosphere processes will take place.

Paper alert! Justus van Ramshorst et al. showed that the net ecosystem-scale carbon uptake of alley-cropping #agroforestry in Germany was higher compared to adjacent monocropping using lower-cost eddy covariance. More details at: doi.org/10.1007/s104...

As part of the visit, our team also met with counterparts at IPB University and the University of Jambi, strengthening research collaboration and exchanging knowledge on tropical ecosystem monitoring and sustainable land management practices.

The Jambi site provides critical insights into the biogeochemical processes and carbon dynamics associated with oil palm cultivation in tropical lowland ecosystems. Our visit aimed to assess ongoing measurement infrastructure, gain hands-on exposure to flux tower instrumentation, and maintenance.

Located in Jambi Province on Sumatra Island, Indonesia, this site has been recording continuous greenhouse gas flux and micromet data since March 2014.

Paper alert! Drollinger et al. show that shorter, more intense rain events in European beech forests shrink throughfall and amplify moisture patchiness, gradually loosening hydrological links and altering Critical Zone function. Link: iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1... #Hydrology #Climate
