Research
+ How large are the potential of negative emission technologies such as af/reforestation or bioenergy with carbon capture and storage to take up and sequester CO2? How permanent is this carbon storage, could future extreme events annihilate a forest carbon sink? What are the risks and side-effects of NETs?
+ Is it possible to create win-win situations for mitigation and adaption by land use change such as afforestation, where we achieve a reduction in the global atmospheric CO2 concentration concurrently with a local cooling through energy and water fluxes?
+ How can we reduce the large uncertainties around land use emission estimates, integrating model simulations with Earth observations?
+ How can we integrate land management in global Earth system models to assess effects e.g. of forestry harvest and intensification on vegetation and climate?
