Partnership for research on biota-climate-feedbacks (PERICLES)
The major focus of PERICLES are biota-climate-feedbacks. These include relatively well-studied effects of climate and climatic change on biota, and the so far almost neglected effects of biota and their interactions on climate and climatic change. Our vision is to understand these complex interactions in ecosystems along the transition from marine to terrestrial regions in the Northern Hemisphere.
