Das GFZ Helmholtz-Zentrum für Geoforschung ist das nationale Zentrum für die Erforschung der festen Erde. Wir untersuchen die Geosphäre im hochkomplexen System Erde mit den weiteren Teilsystemen und ihren ineinandergreifenden Kreisläufen und weitverzweigten Ursache-Wirkungs-Ketten.
The GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences is the national research centre for Earth sciences in Germany. It investigates the geosphere within the highly complex System Earth with its further subsystems and its interacting cycles. The GFZ combines all disciplines of the geosciences from geodesy to geology, mineralogy, geophysics, geochemistry and geobiology in one scientific centre. It is a member of the Helmholtz Association of German Research Centres.
