The Max Planck Institute for Meteorology
The Max Planck Institute for Meteorology (MPI-M) is an internationally renowned institute for climate research. Its mission is to understand Earth's changing climate.
The MPI-M comprises three departments, runs an international PhD programme together with the University of Hamburg, and hosts independent research groups.
The Atmosphere in the Earth System
The Land in the Earth System
The Ocean in the Earth System
PhD Programme IMPRS-ESM
Independent research groups

The @esm2025_eu project has started! @ilitat co-leads the core theme “Enabling and exploring new couplings between Earth system components” and V. Brovkin’s group contributes with the development of novel physical and biogeochemical components of ICON-ESM. mpimet.mpg.de/en/communicati… twitter.com/esm2025_eu/sta…

Flowers are one of the☁️-patterns we study with #EUREC4A. The synergy of satellite images and airborne radar data reveals their rich vertical structure with strong precip. cores and thin stratiform layers. Curious about these patterns? Preprint: doi.org/10.1002/essoar… twitter.com/FeliciaBrisc/s…

Projected changes in the atmospheric wind field might cause an unexpected response in the deep Atlantic overturning circulation, if ocean eddies are taken into account.

Im ersten "Hamburg Climate Futures Outlook" untersuchen Forschende des Exzellenzclusters #CLICCS gesellschaftliche Faktoren für eine Zukunft mit Netto-Null Emissionen. Der Studie zufolge ist eine vollständige Dekarbonisierung bis 2050 derzeit nicht plausibel, mehr Infos ⬇️ twitter.com/CENunihh/statu…

In a new paper #MPIM_scientist C. Stephan and A. Mariaccia @latmos_ipsl analyzed an extensive network of radio soundings over the tropical Atlantic and found that the tropospheric gravity wave background can explain observed properties of mesoscale motion. wcd.copernicus.org/articles/2/359… pic.twitter.com/bhNrLDL3cg
Our Research
Scientists at the MPI-M investigate what determines the sensitivity of the Earth system to perturbations such as the changing composition of its atmosphere, and work toward establishing the sources and limits of predictability within the Earth system. For that purpose MPI-M develops and analyses sophisticated models of the Earth system. Targeted in-situ measurements and satellite observations complement the model simulations. [read more]
