The Max Planck Institute for Biogeochemistry is located in Jena, Germany. It was created in 1997, and moved into new buildings 2002. [1] It is one of 84 institutes in the Max Planck Society (Max Planck Gesellschaft). [2]
The research at the Max Planck Institute for Biogeochemistry is dedicated to the study of global biogeochemical cycles and their long-term interactions with the biosphere, the atmosphere, the geosphere and the entire climate system. We aim to better understand how living organisms - including humans - exchange basic resources such as water, carbon, nutrients, and energy with their environment and how this affects ecosystems and climate at regional to global scales. [3]
The institute has three departments, with each department consisting of several research groups, and sometimes additional project groups. [4]

Biogeochemical Signals (Sönke Zaehle)
In addition, there are a number of independent research groups that are not integrated into the departments. [5]
