Water and carbon dynamics in wetlands

Full title

Quantification and modelling the interactions between water and carbon dynamics at agricultural used wetlands

Summary

The overall goal of the project is the improvement of simulation models of the basic water and CO2/ Nitrogen cycle for shallow groundwater water sites in a groundwater-soil-atmosphere system

The three goals of the this project are: Objective 1) Measurement of the hydraulic and geochemical conditions in the unsaturated and saturated zone of a shallow groundwater site and reactive modeling of the gas and solute fluxes considering differentiated geochemical effects and feedbacks of dynamic control variables

Objective 2) The determination and better understanding of the interconnectivity of the temporally highly dynamic gaseous water and CO2 emissions on the basis of automatic chamber measurements on the lysimeters

Objective 3) The improvements of an existing agro-ecosystem model on the basis the results of previous two projects.
