Prof. Dr. Markus Reichstein, Director at the Max Planck Institute for Biogeochemistry

Markus Reichstein (born September 25, 1972 in Kiel ) is a German geoscientist specializing in the interactions between climate and ecosystems. Since mid-2012 he has been Director at the Max Planck Institute for Biogeochemistry in Jena and since 2014 Professor of Global Geoecology at the Friedrich Schiller University Jena .

Career

After studying landscape ecology at the University of Münster , which he graduated with a diploma in 1998, Reichstein received his doctorate in 2001 at the University of Bayreuth on the subject of 'Drought effects on ecosystem carbon and water exchange in three Mediterranean forest ecosystems - a combined top-down and bottom- up analysis'. From 2001 to 2003 he was a research assistant in the plant ecology department at the University of Bayreuth. He spent a European Marie Curie Postdoctoral Fellowship at the University of Tuscia (Università degli Studi della Tuscia, Viterbo, Italy), with regular guest stays at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK), the University of Montana , Missoula and the University of California , Berkeley (2003-2006). In 2006 Reichstein was appointed head of an independent Max Planck research group at the MPI for Biogeochemistry in Jena. Markus Reichstein has been Director of the Biogeochemical Integration Department and Scientific Member of the Max Planck Society since 2012 .

research

Reichstein dedicates his research to biogeochemical cycles and the dynamics of the earth system, especially the modeling of ecosystem reactions to climate change and variability. In recent years, he has also dealt with the subject areas of extreme events and social resilience to climate extremes. He is co-founder of the Michael-Stifel Center for Data and Simulation Sciences Jena (MSCJ) in 2015 and has been a member of the scientific directorate since then. Here he and colleagues are pursuing the application of machine learning and artificial intelligence for a better understanding of the Earth system.

Awards

Reichstein has received numerous awards, including a Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Prize for 2020, the Piers J. Sellers Global Environmental Change Mid-Career Award from the American Geophysical Union (AGU) in 2018 , the Max Planck Research Prize in 2013 and the Jim Gray (Microsoft ) seed award for excellence in e-science. For several years he has been one of the most highly cited scientists in the geo and environmental sciences.
