Supercomputing Competence Centre
With the HPSC TerrSys, Geoverbund ABC/J offers direct access to the supercomputers of Forschungszentrum Jülich. Together with the associated Simulation and Data Laboratory (SimDataLab TerrSys) and in close cooperation with the Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC), the HPSC TerrSys provides professional and technical support for the geoscientists of the ABC/J region in implementing their research work with the help of the supercomputers.

Clouds and Precipitation Competence Centre
The CPEX-LAB combines cloud- and precipitation-related expertise from the fields of meteorology, remote sensing, applied mathematics, engineering and computer science. The focus is on scientific and technical challenges in the observation and understanding of clouds and precipitation. The CPEX-LAB will contribute to improved forecasting (e.g. warning of extreme precipitation and wind gusts, energy meteorological parameters for the use of renewable energies).

Water Competence Centre
The HyCoGeo is intended to bundle the expertise of the Geoverbund on knowledge and insights into the dynamics of the hydrosphere, which will change significantly in the coming years. The main objectives include the bundling and networking of specialist expertise, the promotion of young scientists and the acquisition of new research projects. In addition to teaching and research cooperations, summer schools, virtual labs and "living labs" are to be established at three watercourses in the region for young scientists, as well as cooperations with regional practical partners, such as water associations.

Isotope Competence Centre
The planned IGSC4i is intended to become a platform for isotope researchers and users that offers the full application potential of all four affiliated institutions. In doing so, the IGSC4i aims to be an incubator for research ideas focused on isotopic approaches to address major scientific questions and provide the organisational infrastructure for the successful preparation and submission of coordinated research proposals.
