Experiments and tests

Risø's Integrated Environmental Project (RIMI) is an interdisciplinary research project aimed at the study of pathways, processes and effects of anthropogenically derived nitrogen compounds in the terrestrial environment. Deposition of nitrogen compounds emitted to the atmosphere plays an important role in both acidification of ecosystems, and there is a substantial need for more precise information on both qualitative and quantitative aspects of the problem.

The field station at Sorø aims to quantify atmosphere-biosphere exchange of CO₂ and other greenhouse gasses in a 80yr old beech forest.

The Research activities in development of test procedures is aiming at improvements of existing testing procedures and development of new procedures to assist the wind energy industry with appropriate testing methods, and to supplement theoretical wind energy research with appropriate tools for verification. To support and verify development of new test procedures a series of data acquisition systems have been developed.
