MaxPlanckResearch 3/2024: Focus: On Life and Survival

This issue focuses on meeting existential needs, which are becoming increasingly limited due to climate change. Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research are trying to preserve the characteristics of high-yielding and robust hybrid plants over several generations. It also looks at the work of the Global Fire Monitoring Center, which collects and communicates knowledge on how to prevent and effectively combat fires in forests, meadows and fields. Finally, a topic is how the water cycles have already changed and will continue to change and how we can adapt to this.
