Research in this second CRC term will focus on 1) soil microbial feedbacks in northern, C-dense wetland ecosystems facing warmer temperatures, enhanced CO2, permafrost degradation, and atmospheric pollution; 2) soil-level impacts of, and solutions to, intensified boreal and north temperate forest management; and 3) ecosystem-scale mining of atmospheric C through reclamation of mining-impacted brownfield landscapes. This research will serve as an interdisciplinary training platform for students by leading to fundamental discoveries in soil microbiology while also addressing societally and industrially relevant challenges of ecosystem responses to climate change and resource management, as well as exploring management solutions to these challenges.

第二个CRC任期的研究将集中在1)面临气温升高、二氧化碳加剧、永久冻土退化和大气污染的北部C密度湿地生态系统中的土壤微生物反馈；2)强化的北方和北温带森林管理对土壤层面的影响和解决方案；以及3)通过开垦受采矿影响的棕地景观来进行生态系统规模的大气碳开采。这项研究将作为学生的跨学科培训平台，通过在土壤微生物学方面取得基础发现，同时解决生态系统应对气候变化和资源管理方面的社会和行业相关挑战，以及探索应对这些挑战的管理解决方案。
