Mission
The Wegener Center integrates climate, environmental, and socio-economic research.
We contribute to the understanding of climate variability and change, from global to regional to local scales, as well as of social and economic drivers and impacts of climate and global change. To this end we monitor, analyze and model the physical climate system as well as socio-economic processes. In promoting young scientists and in teaching we strengthen the environmental system sciences and related fields like physics and economics.
