The energy and water exchanges between the land surface and the lower atmosphere (i.e. land atmosphere interactions) plays an important role for the evolution of meteorological conditions and ecosystems. In the remote sensing department at UFZ, we aim to quantify the terrestrial water cycle dynamics from the integration of multi-source Earth observations and modelling framework across scales....
The offshore wind energy sector has grown massively over the last decade and research concerning the assessments of available power and potential environmental impacts is facing challenges to keep track with this unprecedented development. In this presentation we will focus on the big potential of satellite remote sensing to help making the offshore wind technology a success.

The cryosphere, which includes permafrost, snow, glaciers, and ice sheets, is a vital component of the Earth’s climate system. Monitoring these environments is essential for assessing the effects of climate change. SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) is a powerful tool for cryosphere research because it can provide large-scale information on both surface and subsurface properties, as well as track...
