The continuation will be carried out by the State of Lower Saxony after a cabinet decision on January 21, 2020, has created the necessary conditions for the continued financing of the institute. With the restructuring of the LIAG now underway, the aim is to rejoin the Leibniz Association as soon as possible. The Institute would like to thank the Geologischen Diensten and further Associations for their support in maintaining the Institute.

Update: LIAG will only operate in the public as the LIAG Institute for Applied Geophysics because of the separation to the Leibniz Gemeinschaft.
