Terrestrial Environmental Observatories

The Northeastern German Lowland observatory (TERENO-NE) is part of the Helmholtz Association’s interdisciplinary, long-term research network of Terrestrial Environmental Observatories (TERENO) representing typical landscapes in Germany and Central Europe

 

Northeastern Germany, where the GFZ-run observatory TERENO-NE is situated, is one of the regions in Germany most vulnerable to global change. The main research foci are to understand the regional impact of global change on the Earth’s surface and near-subsurface (landscape evolution, hydrology and carbon budget) and, in turn, the influence of the Earth’s surface on atmosphere and climate via greenhouse gas fluxes. Current observations through extensive monitoring are linked with long-term proxy time series based on paleoclimate archives such as lake sediments and tree ring chronologies. This allows us to evaluate recent trends in the context of long-term temporal variability of the systems at hand. Investigations of long time series of climate change and landscape evolution are based on the hypothesis that observed recent trends can be reliably evaluated only in the context of profound knowledge of long‐term trends and their underlying processes.

The complex relationships and feedback mechanisms of the different parts of the terrestrial systems require an interdisciplinary research approach. Important system variables, which are being monitored within TERENO, include: relocation and exchange processes of water, matter and energy in the groundwater-vegetation-atmosphere system, long-term changes in the structure and functioning of microorganisms, flora and fauna, as well as socioeconomic conditions that must be determined with sufficient temporal and spatial resolution.

The following scientific questions arise:

  • Which consequences will the expected climate change have on the groundwater, soils, vegetation and surface waters?
  • In which way will the feedbacks mechanisms affect the terrestrial fluxes of water and matter (e.g. feedbacks between land surface and atmosphere)?
  • Which direct influences have soil and landuse changes on water balance, soil fertility, biodiversity and regional climate?
  • What are the consequences of large anthropogenic interferences (e.g. open mining, deforestation) on terrestrial systems?

 

The long-term data sets developed in TERENO will significantly foster the validation, advancement and integration of terrestrial models, e.g. groundwater and soil water balance models, regional climate and weather prognostic models, air quality models, runoff and forest/agronomic models as well as diversity and socioeconomical models. Integrated model systems can comprehensively support the management of agronomic and forest ecosystems, e.g. optimization of irrigation systems as well as development of warning systems for extreme weather occurrences and flooding, integrated control systems of water management constructions, and monitoring systems for air, groundwater and surface water quality.

Data management

The working groups in TERENO North-East are supported during the processes of collecting, providing, integrating, managing and exchanging of heterogeneous digital resources. Data Management controls data storage and secures internal and external data access via standardized exchange formats and, thus, data provision in the central TERENO Data Discovery Portal.

Geoarchives

Complex data on climate and landscape development are collected. These are combined in order to derive improved predictions for the future. For this purpose, lake sediments and tree year rings, in particular, are analyzed; in addition samples of archaeological and fossil wood material as well as paleosoils are examined.

Remote sensing

In the DEMMIN test field data on vegetation, soil and exchange processes between soil and atmosphere are recorded. The terrestrial data are compared with aircraft and satellite-based information from remote sensing. These algorithms can finally be transferred to areas for which there are remote sensing data, but only a few terrestrial data available. This facilitates to efficiently gain regional insights into environmental conditions.

Geomicrobiology

As part of the Helmholtz Young Investigators GroupMicroCenethe working group geomicrobiology deals with the microbial carbon cycle of peat bogs. Molecular methods are used to identify, quantify and characterize key organisms of the methane cycle of various types of peat bogs. The working group thus contributes to the process understanding of current trace gas flows and creates the basis for interpreting the spread and activity of microbial communities in cores of peat bogs reaching back thousands of years. The aim of the work is to be able to better estimate the influence of microbial communities on the trace gas fluxes in the course of the natural and anthropogenic origin of peat bogs. Study sites are the near-natural, oligo- and mesotrophic kettle moors of the Müritz National Park, the coastal peat bog Hütelmoor as well as the eutrophic polder Zarnekow.

Hydrology

In the Great Lake Fürstensee and in its catchment area (Müritz National Park), the dynamics of water and matter moving between running water, sediment and groundwater are examined in detail. In addition, measuring stations are operated at various water gauges in order to monitor the water quality over an extended period of time. In summary, the landscape water balance in the region can be comprehensively stated.

Helmholtz Young Investigators Group TEAM (Trace Gas Exchange in the Earth–Atmosphere System on Multiple Scales)

Exchange processes between terrestrial systems and the atmosphere are investigated on different temporal and spatial scales. The aim is to improve the understanding of the biological, chemical and physical processes that control the exchange of energy and greenhouse gases between soil, vegetation and atmosphere. The determination of the gas fluxes between the ecosystem and the atmosphere takes place in a rewetted peat bog of the Peene near Zarnekow / Dargun using the so-called eddy covariance method. This micrometeorological method is used both at eddy-towers, as well as by means of helicopter or aircraft rides, in order to examine areas of different sizes.
