Aerial view of the station. Melpitz is surrounded by meadows, fields and forest. The station in the lowlands of Saxony is representative of large parts of rural eastern Germany and lies on the border between Atlantic and continental climates, which makes it particularly interesting for large-scale analyses in Europe.
