Stimulated by the concern for environmental problems that arose
during the 1970s and 1980s, related both to global and national
questions of sustain ability, the German government committed
itself to advancing ecosystem research as a central component of
planning for environment ally, economically, and socially sound
policies and for resource manage ment during the 21 st century.
Ecosystem research has been promoted at institutions spread
throughout the country and that are favorably struc tured to
conduct interdisciplinary studies. Research funding is derived from
both the federal union and state governments. Results from the
research programme at several of these institutions are summarized
in this volume: 1. to provide a status report on process
understanding within ecosystem types that are viewed as building
blocks of complex, highly-modified Central European landscapes, 2.
to document progress at institutions pursuing ecosystem science and
promoting interdisciplinary approaches, 3. to support the next
steps in generalizing the research results, e. g., to obtain a
picture of ecosystem function in time and space or oflandscape
function, and 4. to examine how the results may be applied to
better manage natural resources and achieve sustainability.
