The DFG (German Research Foundation), the Universities of Aachen, Bonn and Cologne and the Research Centre Jülich regard equal opportunities for male and female scientists as essential for the advance of their projects. In the framework of the “TR32 - Pattern in Soil-Vegetation-Atmosphere Systems: Monitoring, Modelling and Data Assimilation” the decision was made to establish a gender board to actively promote gender-specific issues.
