The biotic structure of a water body, together with its physicochemical and hydrological properties, forms the most important basis for the assessment of its mass balance and the recording of environmental changes. The project focuses on the causal analysis of dominant processes and the long-term development of material flows and biological structures in reservoir ecosystems.
Reservoirs are…

The work on the proper names (mainly place, field and family names) of Saxony and neighbouring areas began in the early 1950s under the direction of Rudolf Fischer and Theodor Frings, who also founded the book series "Deutsch-Slawische Forschungen zur Namenskunde und Siedlungsgeschichte". So far, the most important result of the editing of the extensive name material are the 38 volumes of the…

Printed funeral sermons of the two centuries between 1550 and 1750 have gained decisive importance for research into the early modern period beyond their original function as funeral sermons of the Protestant upper and middle classes. The aim of the project is to catalogue the funeral sermon collections of the early modern period and to evaluate them as a source for cultural and social history,…

The project is supervised by the Commission "Wissenschaftsgeschichte (Naturwissenschaften/ Mathematik/ Technik)". The aim of the project is to develop historical statements about the chronological and disciplinary structures in mathematics and physics as well as to summarize the results of work from biographical and bibliographical aspects. Furthermore, an electronic database on the history of the…

The Saxon Academy of Sciences in Leipzig took over the project initiated by the Saxon Commission for History in 1896 with the establishment of a office site in 1992. The "Atlas zur Geschichte und Landeskunde von Sachsen" is being produced in cooperation between the Academy, the Saxony State Surveying Office and the Dresden University of Applied Sciences (FH).
The atlas will be designed in terms…

The task of the project is to compile the German and foreign-language new publications on all subject areas of German history on the basis of the autopsy principle as completely as possible and to make them accessible in form and content. The reporting period covers the period from the birth of Christ to the present day. It covers the entire range of scientific publications such as monographs,…

The research unit is dedicated to the long-term investigation of landscape changes. This includes the development and testing of recording and evaluation methods to determine and predict the condition, functionality and resilience of the landscape at different aggregation levels. The aim is to analyse and evaluate the impact of anthropogenic influences on the structure and function of the…

The aim of the project is a historical-critical new edition of all works by Johann Sebastian Bach. This will replace the old Bach-Gesamtausgabe from 1851-1900. The latter had proved to be in urgent need of revision, especially in its source-critical part, but also in its arbitrary selection of certain versions.
The New Bach Edition (NBA) is an urtext edition; it is intended to provide scholars…

Long-term studies on the heavy metal pollution of river sediments in selected areas make it possible to quantify the temporal and spatial changes and to identify the laws of transport, sedimentation and discharge of contaminants. Current studies on event-dependent transportion of particulate material serve to investigate the self-purification potential of rivers strongly influenced by human…

The “Neue Robert-Schumann-Gesamtausgabe (RSA)” considers itself as historical-critical complete edition. In doing so it wants to be embedded in the historical facticity of the authentic sources. The principle is text production faithful to the sources. In accordance with the state of the art musicological editorial-technology, all compositions are carefully processed and presented as a whole.…

The aim of the office site, created in 1992, was to edit the surviving writings and letters as well as the testimonies to the technical achievements of Ehrenfried Walther von Tschirnhaus (1651 to 1708), a Saxon scholar of European standing and an important representative of the German Early Enlightenment, in the form of an edition of his works. The volumes, including the invention of Meissen…

The object of research is a long-term investigation of fluid release at natural mineral springs and mofettes in geodynamically active areas, especially in the Upper Vogtland. Changes of quantitative parameters, such as source discharge or degassing rate as well as radiometric-geochemical indicators (nuclide content, isotope ratio, ion and gas concentration) are linked to geophysical parameters,…

For the climatic-stratigraphic development in the Quaternary Earth history, an absolute time scale is worked out by the physical age determinations of rocks, fossils and archaeological objects in different areas of the Earth. Methods of luminescence dating and the investigation of their solid-state physics and dosimetric properties are of special interest. Other methods (e.g. radiocarbon and…
