The "Germany Mosaic" is a time series of Landsat satellite images and vectorized segments covering the entirety of Germany from 1984 to 2023. The image data are divided into TK100 sheet sections (see further details: Blattschnitt der Topographischen Karte 1:100 000). The dataset provides optimized 6-band imagery for each year, representing summer (May to July) and autumn (August to October) seasons, along with vegetation indices such as NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) and NirV (Near-Infrared Reflectance of Vegetation) for the same periods. Additionally, vectorized "zones" of approximately homogeneous pixels are available for each year. The spectral properties of the image data and the morphological characteristics of these zones are included as vector attributes (see Documentation: "Mosaic (1984–2023) - Data Description"). An overview of the coverage and quality of all sheet sections is provided as a vector layer titled D-Mosaik_Sheet-Sections within this document. The Germany Mosaic can also be considered a spatial-temporal Data Cube, enabling advanced analysis and integration into workflows requiring multi-dimensional data. This structure allows users to perform operations such as querying data across specific time periods, analyzing trends over decades, or aggregating spatial information to generate tailored insights for a wide range of research applications. In mid-latitudes, seasonal variations in vegetation—and consequently in the image data—are typically more pronounced than changes occurring over several years. The temporal segmentation of the dataset has been designed to encompass the entire vegetation period (May to October), with the division into summer and autumn periods capturing seasonal metabolic shifts in natural biotopes. This segmentation also records most agricultural changes, including sowing and harvesting activities. Depending on weather conditions, the individual image data represent either the median, mean value, or the best available image for the specified time period (see Documentation: "Mosaic (1984–2023) - Data Description). Remote sensing has become an indispensable tool for environmental research, particularly in landscape analysis. Beyond conventional applications, the Germany Mosaic supports the development of digital twins in environmental system research. By providing detailed spatial and temporal data, this dataset enables the modeling of virtual ecosystems, facilitating simulations, scenario testing, and predictive analyses for sustainable management. Moreover, the spatial and temporal trends captured by remotely sensed parameters complement traditional approaches in biological, ecological, geographical, and epidemiological research.

Das Projekt hat zum Ziel, den Einfluss der Aktivität von Bodentieren auf Umsetzungsprozesse in urbanen Böden zu untersuchen. Neben der Quantifizierung des Beitrages, den die Bodentiere bei der Dekomposition von organischem Material und der Verlagerung von Nähr- und Fremdstoffen leisten, soll insbesondere auf die Wechselwirkungen mit der mikrobiellen Flora eingegangen werden. Da anthropogen geprägte Böden eine in ihrer Vielfalt - gegenüber natürlichen Systemen - reduzierte Bodentiergemeinschaft aufweisen, möchte das Projekt zugleich einen Beitrag zu der Frage leisten, welchen Einfluss jeweils funktionelle Zusammensetzung und Artendiversität der Biozönose auf die bodenbiologisch gesteuerten Prozesse diese Standorte ausüben. Ein weiteres Ziel des Projektes ist die Charakterisierung von Veränderungen in den strukturellen Eigenschaften der untersuchten Böden, die auf Ausscheidungen und auf die Vermengungs- und Grabaktivität der Bodentiere zurückzuführen sind. In der ersten Projektphase wird die Steuerungsfunktion der Bodentiere bei Umsetzungsprozessen, die maßgeblich durch die Aktivität von Mikroorganismen getragen werden, in Mikrokosmen unterschiedlicher Komplexität untersucht. Diese sollen mit standorttypischen Tierarten und Substraten bestückt werden und dynamische, bodenbiologische Prozesse modellhaft beschreiben. Die Übertragung der im Labor gewonnenen Erkenntnisse auf das Freiland erfolgt in einer späteren Projektphase. Zusammenhänge zwischen Besatz von speziellen Tierarten und ... (Text gekürzt)
Regionalisierte Agrarökosystemmodelle sind in der Lage die Konsequenzen menschlichen Wirtschaftens auf den Flächen in Bezug auf Stoffhaushalt und Stoffdynamik der Region zu beschreiben, zu analysieren und zu bewerten. Systematische Vergleiche zwischen Nutzungsarten werden i.d.R. mittels des Konzeptes der Szenariensimulationen untersucht. In diesem Projekt soll die Technik der Szenariensimulation für agrarökologische Standortmodell ersetzt werden durch die Integration der Simulationsmodell in Methoden der numerischen Kontrolltheorie. Die Anwendung der Kontrolltheorie liefert neben Aussagen über Stoffhaushalt und -dynamik auch Aussagen über die standortspezifisch optimale Managementstrategie und erlaubt so unterschiedliche Managementziele zu vergleichen und zu bewerten. Diese Methode soll systematisch für ein regionales Modell weiterentwickelt und angewendet werden. Konkreter Untersuchungsgegenstand ist das regionale Patuxent Watershed Landscape Modell der University of Maryland, USA. Die nötigen Methoden zur optimalen Kontrolle ökologischer Modelle sind in der Arbeitsgruppe des Antragstellers im Rahmen des SFB 179 'Wasser- und Stoffdynamik in Agrarökosystemen' entwickelt und validiert worden.
Flussauen mit ihrem typischen Muster von unterschiedlichen Lebensräumen sind in Mitteleuropa stark gefährdet. Die Bundesanstalt für Gewässerkunde (BfG) hat daher das Integrierte Flussauenmodell INFORM (Integrated Floodplain Response Model) für den Einsatz an Bundeswasserstraßen erstellt, mit dem ökologische Modellierungen durchgeführt werden können. Das modular aufgebaute Modellsystem INFORM verknüpft hydrologische, hydraulische, morphologische und bodenkundliche Modelltechniken mit ökologischen Modellen. Dabei werden vor allem sogenannte Lebensraumeignungsmodelle (Habitatmodelle) angewendet. Solche Modelle beschreiben die potentielle Eignung eines Standortes als Lebensraum für bestimmte Arten und / oder Artengruppen anhand der Ausprägung mehrerer abiotischer Standortparameter. Die Bearbeitung folgt prinzipiell dem Wirkungspfad Abfluss - Flusswasser - Grundwasser - Boden - Biotik unter Berücksichtigung morphologischer Einflüsse, des direkten Einflusses der Überflutung und der (landwirtschaftlichen) Nutzung. Die Bewertung der prognostizierten Veränderungen erfolgt an Hand von Gesetzen und Verordnungen und beinhaltet auch die Auswirkungen des menschlichen Handelns.
Das Ziel dieses Projektes ist es, die Funktion von Bodenmikroorganismen für die Stabilisierung und die Mineralisierung von organischen Substanzen an der Grenzfläche zwischen Boden und Streustoffen zu ermitteln. Mit diesem Arbeitsschwerpunkt soll ein Beitrag zum Thema Nummer 1 'Stabilisierung durch strukturchemisch bedingte Eigenschaften (Rekalzitranz)' des DFG-Programmes geleistet werden. Mikrokosmosexperimente im Labor sollen den Zusammenhang zwischen der Sukzession von mikrobiellen Lebensgemeinschaften, der Substratverfügbarkeit an der Grenzfläche zwischen Streu und Boden und der Produktion von Bodenenzymen, die für den Abbau von organischen Verbindungen verantwortlich sind, klären. Ein besonderer Schwerpunkt soll darauf gelegt werden, den Zusammenhang zwischen Lokalisation und Funktion der Bodenorganismen in ihrem Habitat zu erfassen. Die Übertragbarkeit der in den Laborexperimenten gewonnen Daten auf die Situation im Freiland soll durch die Untersuchung der kleinräumigen Variabilität bodenmikrobiologischer Prozesse im Freiland (jeweils zwei ackerbauliche und zwei forstlich genutzte Standorte) überprüft werden. Ein ausgewählter Waldstandort soll zudem in allen Kompartimenten (Horizonte, Grenzschichten, Aggregatgrößenfraktionen) genauer betrachtet werden, um Aussagen über die quantitative Relevanz der einzelnen Vorgänge abzuleiten.
