3rd ITMS General Assembly in Heidelberg: Progress in National Greenhouse Gas Monitoring
At the third ITMS General Assembly in 2025 at Heidelberg University, around 100 researchers discussed current findings and strategies for the further development of the greenhouse gas monitoring system in Germany and Europe.
ITMS- User Meeting at the German Environment Agency (UBA)
The ITMS user meeting 2025 at the German Environment Agency(UBA) in Dessau-Roßlau focused on technical exchanges with federal institutes. Discussions centred on how ITMS results can be explicitly used for future national emissions reporting.
ITMS: Workshop on April 2, 2025 at the Freie University in Berlin
ITMS-Q&S brings together agricultural management experts to improve greenhouse gas emission modelling
In order to correctly model greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture, a deeper understanding of agricultural management is required. Experts from the agricultural sector came together at the workshop on 2 April 2025 at the Freie Universität Berlin to improve and harmonise the assumptions for agricultural management in Germany. The event was organised by the ITMS Q&S module coordinated by Ralf Kiese and Clemens Scheer from the Terrestrial Biogeochemical Processes department.
The "Terrestrial Bio-Geo Chemistry" division of the IMK-IFU in Garmisch-Partenkirchen joined the research and media vessel ALDEBARAN on its 2023 Rhine expedition to investigate the formation of climate gases in bodies of water.
On its journey, the ALDEBARAN expedition passed through two countries, Germany and France, and within Germany, five federal states and travelled over 40 kilometers every day from 8 June to 3 July 2023.
