Institutions / Research Projects
Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin
The Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin is discovering new materials and developing technologies for a climate-neutral energy supply of the future. Our X-ray source BESSY II attracts many researchers from around the world.
GFZ Potsdam – ERC Gyroscope project
In the GyroSCoPe project, funded by an ERC Consolidator grant, scientists focus on how periodic changes in climate affect Earth-surface processes.
National Parks and Local Authorities
Huascarán National Park (Perú)
Located in the Cordillera Blanca, the highest tropical mountain range on Earth, this park is home to beautiful landscapes and wildlife across deep glacial valleys and dozens of peaks over 6000m tall. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, and very active landscape, this beautiful park attracts many mountaineering tourists but has also faced several deadly natural disasters in the last century.
Jostedalsbreen National Park (Norway)
Jostedalsbreen National Park is one of the largest intact wilderness areas in southern Norway. The glaciers are surrounded by a spectacular and jaw-dropping landscape displaying large contrasts within short distances, offering memorable nature experiences.
Hohe Tauern National Park (Austria)
The Hohe Tauern National Park is one of the most spectacular high mountain landscapes on planet Earth. The altitudinal belts from the valleys to the summits of the 3000m+ tall mountains, including Austria’s tallest mountain, represent exceptional geomorphological diversity, shaped by tectonics, rivers and glaciers, as well as a vibrant and protected species biodiversity.
