The Earth and Solar system Research Partnership

The Earth and Solar system Research Partnership (ESRP) pools research excellence across disciplines to understand how the Earth functions as a complex system and to improve the predictability of the effects of human actions. It encompasses the Max-Planck-Institutes for Biogeochemistry in Jena, Chemistry in Mainz, Meteorology in Hamburg, Solar System Research in Göttingen and Geoanthropology in Jena.

Projects

HALO
HALO, the High ALtitude – long-range research aircraft opens new horizons for the German atmospheric research community.
ATTO
"ATTO" stands for Amazonian Tall Tower Observatory. The 325 meter high tower aims at delivering groundbreaking findings which will be the basis for improved climate models.
