The Cluster of Excellence CliSAP

Joint forces for “Climate System Analysis and Prediction”: Natural sciences, economics, and humanities. CliSAP epitomizes interdisciplinary research aiming for long-range climate visions.

Strong partnerships

Human-induced or natural? Committed to collaborative climate change research, Universität Hamburg and its partners are establishing reliable future scenarios.

Funding

CliSAP currently receives its complete funding from the German Research Foundation (DFG) within the framework of the Excellence Initiative of the German federal and state governments.

Prospects

CliSAP and the University’s Center for Earth System Research and Sustainability (CEN) have been closely cooperating from the start. In 2017, CliSAP’s entire research will be integrated into the CEN.
