5 Cross-Cutting Research
Many questions in earth system research are so complex that they can only be answered in interdisciplinary research networks. The Helmholtz Association therefore established a number of large, scientific initiatives that are being addressed across topics and research fields. In “Helmholtz jargon” they are called “Cross-Cutting Activities”. Under the links below you can find a selection of cross-cutting activities rooted in the Research Field Earth and Environment.
