Biodiversity and Climate

Grasender Kaffernbüffel (Syncerus caffer)

Research field III integrates geosciences and biosciences to analyze and predict the feedbacks among biodiversity, climate and other anthropogenic drivers in past, present, and future. 

Our research spans across all levels of biodiversity ranging from the genome to organismal traits to the processes and functions shaping entire ecosystems. We provide the basis for understanding the evolutionary and ecological capacities of biodiversity to respond and adapt to climate change.
