Intergrated Greenhouse Gas Monitoring System for Germany (ITMS)
Welcome to the ITMS Project
ITMS (“Integriertes Treibhausgas-Monitoringsystem für Deutschland“ in English as “Integrated Greenhouse Gas Monitoring System for Germany”) is a BMBF (Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung)-funded project designed to enable Germany to operationally monitor the sources and sinks of the three most important long-lived greenhouse gases (GHG) CO2, CH4, N2O via independent measurements. The collaborative project will support Data-driven GHG monitoring against "alternative facts" and "fake news" and in the long term result in the establishment of an operational GHG data assimilation service at the DWD (Deutscher Wetterdienst).
The ITMS project is currently hiring! Several associated projects have recently been granted by the BMBF. The related Job advertisements can be found below:
