Overview

Biogeochemical Modelling

Biogeochemical modeling is an interdisciplinary field that quantitatively describes the complex interactions between chemical, biological, and geological processes in ecosystems. These models enable the understanding of the dynamics of nutrient cycles such as carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus, and they forecast the impacts of environmental changes, such as climate change or human activities, on ecosystems. By integrating data from observations and experiments, researchers can depict complex interactions and feedbacks, which is particularly useful in evaluating environmental management strategies. Overall, biogeochemical modeling plays a crucial role in developing sustainable solutions for global environmental issues.
