Long-term synthetic weather data, groundwater recharge and a thermo-hydraulic groundwater model for Berlin-Brandenburg (1955-2100)

The presented dataset forms the basis for investigating present and future coupled effects of rising surface temperatures and temporal trends in groundwater recharge on subsurface pressure and temperature (PT) conditions in the North German Basin beneath the Federal States of Brandenburg and Berlin (NE Germany), for the period 1955-2100. The study relies on a stochastic weather generator, a distributed hydrologic model, and a 3D thermo-hydraulic groundwater model to evaluate spatio-temporal subsurface feedback to two shared socioeconomic pathways (SSP) for seven general circulation models (GCM). The results demonstrate a regional variability in both the intensity and maximum depths of projected groundwater warming, driven by hydraulic gradients and the underlying geological structure. The magnitude of groundwater warming primarily depends on the surface temperature scenario. Projected changes in recharge are not sufficient to reverse this trend, although recharge is still a key factor controlling groundwater dynamics within aquifers lying above the Rupelian Clay aquitard. The dataset can be further utilized for assessing shallow geothermal potential and groundwater storage availability in the Berlin-Brandenburg region under climate change.

INSPIRE: German Borehole Locations - Saxony (GBL)

The GBL (INSPIRE) represents mechanically drilled boreholes approved by the State Geological Surveys of Germany (SGS). Most of the drilling data were not collected by the SGS, but were transmitted to SGS by third parties in accordance with legal requirements. Therefore, the SGS can accept no responsibility for the accuracy of the information. According to the Data Specification on Geology (D2.8.II.4_v3.0) the boreholes of each federal state are stored in one INSPIRE-compliant GML file. The GML file together with a Readme.txt file is provided in ZIP format (e.g. GBL-INSPIRE_Lower_Saxony.zip). The Readme.txt file (German/English) contains detailed information on the GML file content. Data transformation was proceeded by using the INSPIRE Solution Pack for FME according to the INSPIRE requirements.

Terrestrial, UAV-borne, and airborne laser scanning point clouds of central European forest plots, Germany, with extracted individual trees and manual forest inventory measurements

Laser scanning point clouds of forest stands were acquired in southwest Germany in 2019 and 2020 from different platforms: an aircraft, an uncrewed aerial vehicle (UAV) and a ground-based tripod. The UAV-borne and airborne laser scanning campaigns cover twelve forest plots of approximately 1 ha. The plots are located in mixed central European forests close to Bretten and Karlsruhe, in the federal state of Baden-Württemberg, Germany. Terrestrial laser scanning was performed in selected locations within the twelve forest plots. Airborne and terrestrial laser scanning point clouds were acquired under leaf-on conditions, UAV-borne laser scans were acquired both under leaf-on and later under leaf-off conditions. In addition to the laser scanning campaigns, forest inventory tree properties (species, height, diameter at breast height, crown base height, crown diameter) were measured in-situ during summer 2019 in six of the twelve 1-ha plots. Single tree point clouds were extracted from the different laser scanning datasets and matched to the field measurements. For each tree entry, point clouds, tree species, position, and field-measured and point cloud-derived tree metrics are provided. For 249 trees, point clouds from all three platforms are available. The tree models form the basis of a single tree database covering a range of species typical for central European forests which is currently being established in the framework of the SYSSIFOSS project.

INSPIRE: Map of Near-Surface Deposits of the Federal Republic of Germany 1:250,000 (KOR250)

The KOR250 (INSPIRE) in the scale of 1:250,000 shows occurrences and deposits of mineral resources in Germany, which lie close to the Earth’s surface, i.e. can be mined in open-pits, quarries or near-surface mines. These mineral resources include industrial minerals, aggregates, peat, lignite, oil shales, and natural brines. The map is derived from the KOR250, the digital successor of the map series KOR200 „Map of Near-Surface Deposits of the Federal Republic of Germany 1:200,000”, which has been published since 1984. The KOR200 and KOR250 have been published by the Federal Institute for Geosciences and Natural Resources together with the State Geological Surveys of the federal states on behalf of the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy. Primary purpose of the KOR250 is to display Germany’s potential of domestic raw materials in a comparable way. The explanations given in the printed booklets accompanying the KOR200 are not available in the digital KOR250. In the KOR250 besides the defined deposits and differently coloured areas of raw materials, "active mines" (= operations) at time of publication or "focal points of several active mines" are marked with one symbol each. These mines are not included in the KOR250 (INSPIRE) as often the headquarters of the mining company and not the mining site itself is displayed as well as in many regions the dataset is outdated. As the map sheets of the KOR200 have been generated over more than three decades the timeliness of data is extremely different. For more detail, the current large-scale raw material maps of the Federal State Geological Surveys should always be consulted. The point data displayed in KOR250 (INSPIRE) indicate very small, but worth mentioning prospects of certain raw materials. According to the Data Specification on Mineral Resources (D2.8.III.21) the content of the map is stored in two INSPIRE-compliant GML files: KOR250_EarthResource_polygon.gml comprises the mineral resources as polygons. KOR250_EarthResource_point.gml comprises the mineral resources as points. The GML files together with a Readme.txt file are provided in ZIP format (KOR250-INSPIRE.zip). The Readme.text file (German/English) contains detailed information on the GML files content. Data transformation was proceeded by using the INSPIRE Solution Pack for FME according to the INSPIRE requirements. Notes: It should be noted that according to the INSPIRE commodity code list, most magmatites and metamorphites were assigned to the two values "granite" and "basalt". From a geological point of view and with regard to its origin, this assignment is often misleading. For more information on the outcropping rock of a specific raw material occurrence, the German name from the original KOR250 was mapped to the attribute name of the class GeologicFeature.

CropTypes - Crop Type Maps for Germany - Yearly, 10m

This raster dataset shows the main type of crop grown on each field in Germany each year. Crop types and crop rotation are of great economic importance and have a strong influence on the functions of arable land and ecology. Information on the crops grown is therefore important for many environmental and agricultural policy issues. With the help of satellite remote sensing, the crops grown can be recorded uniformly for whole Germany. Based on Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 time series as well as LPIS data from some Federal States of Germany, 18 different crops or crop groups were mapped per pixel with 10 m resolution for Germany on an annual basis since 2017. These data sets enable a comparison of arable land use between years and the derivation of crop rotations on individual fields. More details and the underlying (in the meantime slightly updated) methodology can be found in Asam et al. 2022.

ArtenFinder

ArtenFinder is a collaborative observation platform of several German federal states such as Rhineland-Palatinate and Berlin. Each state branch runs its own web platform but shares a common database. Users can upload, edit and manage their own observations of animals, plants and fungi, as well as research observations of other users. Experts check observational data obtaining high data quality. This allows the data to be used by state authorities and for research purposes.

Found Animal Survey Germany, Tierfund-Kataster Deutschland (TFK-D)

The citizen science project Tierfund-Kataster systematically records wildlife-vehicle collisions and other incidents involving deceased animals using standardized and georeferenced data, submitted via a smartphone app or web platform. The primary goal is to identify hotspots of wildlife accidents and to develop long-term mitigation strategies. Furthermore, the collected data supports the detection and containment of animal diseases, such as African Swine Fever, and contributes to research on causes of wildlife mortality related to fencing, wind turbines, and railway infrastructure. The Federal State Hunting Association of Schleswig-Holstein and Kiel University initiated the prototype in 2011. In 2016, the German Hunting Association expanded the project to cover the entire country. On GBIF, the following species from the Tierfund-Kataster are represented: cervids, badgers, foxes, raccoons and raccoon dogs, squirrels, hedgehogs, and pheasants.

Räumlich differenzierte Flächenpotentiale für erneuerbare Energien in Deutschland

Der verstärkte Ausbau erneuerbarer Energien ist erklärtes Ziel der Bundesregierung. Das Energiekonzept von 2010 formuliert hierzu Ausbauziele, die den Nutzungsdruck auf die verfügbaren Flächen deutlich erhöhen. Um Konflikte mit anderen Raumnutzungen zu vermeiden, ist es erforderlich, die regionalen Flächenpotenziale für die Nutzung erneuerbarer Energien zu kennen. Nur so kann jeder Raum entsprechend seiner Möglichkeiten optimal genutzt werden. Gegenstand und Zielsetzung: Ziel des Forschungsvorhabens ist die Entwicklung, Erprobung und Anwendung eines praxisgerechten Berechnungsmodells zur Abschätzung der regionalen Flächenpotenziale der verschiedenen EE-Sparten. Hintergrund ist dabei nicht, Vorgaben bezüglich umsetzbarer Flächenpotenziale für Bundesländer oder Regionen zu generieren. Es soll vielmehr ein Beitrag zur Methodenentwicklung und -harmonisierung geleistet werden, der eine transparente Zieldiskussion ermöglicht, die es erlaubt, die raum- und umweltverträgliche Umsetzbarkeit von Beginn an adäquat in den Entscheidungsprozess einzubeziehen. Das Modell soll die Berechnung raum- und umweltverträglicher EE-Flächenpotenziale auf Bundes-, Landes- und regionaler Ebene ermöglichen und hinreichende Einzelfallgerechtigkeit aufweisen. Die Ergebnisse der Analyse sollen die Akteure in die Lage versetzen, Handlungsempfehlungen für den weiteren Ausbau EE formulieren zu können sowie bestehende Zielsetzungen auf ihre Raum- und Umweltverträglichkeit zu prüfen. Dazu soll den Akteuren eine Methodik angeboten werden, die - im Gegensatz zu bestehenden Analyseansätzen - Raumansprüche und Raumwirkungen der einzelnen EE-Sparten in Abhängigkeit von den naturräumlichen Potenzialen sowie von den politischen, rechtlichen und insbesondere planerischen, technischen und wirtschaftlichen Rahmenbedingungen berücksichtigt. Darüber hinaus wird eine flexible Anpassung des Kriterienkatalogs vor dem Hintergrund der Planungsebene sowie der regionalen Eigenschaften ermöglicht. Der Anwender soll mit dem bereitgestellten Grundgerüst der Methodik und mit den Erläuterungen zur ebenenspezifischen Anpassung eigene, regionsspezifische Auswertungen unter Verwendung eigener Restriktionskriterien durchführen können. Das Vorgehen wird anhand der Fallstudien verdeutlicht. Im Ergebnis des Vorhabens werden ein standartisierter Datenkatalog und Hinweise auf weitere, ggf. regional verfügbare Datensätze erarbeitet.
