Our working group is conducting social-ecological research in different countries of the world as interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary research. You can find more information in the thematic field “projects”.
One focus is on the development and implementation of social-ecological models that analyse scale effects and interactions and identify systemic properties such as emergence effects.
Social-ecological modelling can be realised, among others, through the modelling platform GISCAME, which has been developed since 2007 in close cooperation with planning stakeholders, various scientific disciplines, and the technology provider PiSolution GmbH. GISCAME is currently being used in a variety of research projects in a national, European and international context, e.g. in Brazil, Ecuador, Chile, Israel, New Zealand and West Africa. In addition, GISCAME is used in teaching at the universities of Bonn, Jena, Kiel and Hanover. Further information can be found at www.giscame.de
