  Max Planck Society - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Max Planck Institutes operate independently from, though in close cooperation with, the universities, and focus on innovative research which does not fit into the university structure due to their interdisciplinary or transdisciplinary nature or which require resources that cannot be met by the state universities.
The Max Planck Society was founded in Göttingen after World War II in 1948 as the successor organization to the Prussian Kaiser-Wilhelm-Gesellschaft, which was established in 1911 as a non-governmental research organization named for the then German emperor.

The MPI-M is an internationally renowned institute for climate research.
The MPI-M and six institutions from the university’s geosciences department represent the Centre for Marine and Atmospheric Research ZMAW.
The major objective of its 130 scientists, post docs and PhD students is to understand how physical, chemical and biological processes, as well as human behaviour contribute to the dynamics of the Earth system, and specifically how they relate to global and regional climate changes.

 2nd SSC-meeting - Hamburg - 7 September 2000
The consensus of national representatives was that GNIP was a valuable activity in support of local, regional and global climate and water resources investigations using isotope tracers.
The group also suggested that maintenance of national networks is only possible if it is recognized as a long-term project and supported by more than one institute within the country.
Latif, member of the SSC, and himself are both working at the same institute and therefore, he would attend the meetings as needed.

At the beginning of 1999 I spent three months at the Max-Planck-Institute for Meteorology in Hamburg as a trainee.
Even after my traineeship I was working a couple of times at the MPIM to extend the software and to accompany the instrument on two excursions on the Baltic Sea in April and June 2000.
These trips with the research vessel F/S ALKOR were used to collect more data on the reflectivity of the sea surface and to demonstrate that it is possible to use the instrument even aboard a ship.

The field experiment LOFZY 2005 aims at the detection of atmospheric cyclones in the Lofotes area and their interaction with the Norwegian Current.
The air-dropped automatic buoys are integral part of LOFZY 2005 as they measure the atmospheric foring (pressure, wind, temperature) and the impact on the ocean (ocean drift current, temperature) directly.

 Climate Change More Rapid than Ever
There is little to worry about, the "Max" and IPCC are only fabricating situations and trying to make them look scary.
Seems these institutes have forgotten all about the Ice age oscillation also, infact the "max/IPCC scientists" seem to have avoided any use of SCIENCE in the contrivance of their scenarios of "future climate".
WE are in a unique situation to observe a climate topple, and all we hear are ignorant platformings of a "greenhouse concept" that was never approved for use by SCIENCE, failing three times to be validated within the 20th century.
