Our Müggelsee monitoring station "Georg Mothes" takes a winter break. The IGB technicians Thomas Hintze, Jürgen Schreiber and Daniel Langenhaun pulled the station back to the shore and winterised it. As every year, we keep the station in operation as long as possible before the lake is frozen. During the winter break only limited measurements are possible. The data, which we unfortunately can not provide online, are delivered by a single sensor under water. The meteorological values come from a station on the roof of the IGB main building. As soon as the lake is ice-free again, the station will resume its work and regularly record values from the water and air.
