You’ve got to be fast! David Bierbach and Jens Krause show that animals’ speed is fundamental for collective behavioral patterns, and that ultimately it is the faster individuals that have the strongest influence on group-level behavior. 14 September 2020 press release Dams exacerbate the consequences of climate change on river fish Dams restrict the habitats of fish, but do not necessarily prevent the spread of invasive species. This has been discovered by Johannes Radinger and his spanish colleague. 1 September 2020 press release Latest IGB Policy Brief: Does sustainable aquaculture in Germany have a future? The new IGB Policy Brief highlights opportunities and challenges. Our researchers recommend a fundamental debate in politics and society. 17 July 2020 press release Where is the water during a drought? Using the example of the drought-sensitive Demnitzer Mühlenfließ in Brandenburg Dörthe Tetzlaff and her team quantified visible and invisible water flows during and shortly after the drought of 2018. 9 July 2020 press release Born to be a cannibal Heiner Kuhl has described the genome of four mandarin fish species and thus also identified genes for cannibalistic eating behaviour. 16 June 2020 press release Cattle vs. hippopotamus: Dung in rivers of the savannah When hippos are displaced by large herds of cattle in Kenya, aquatic ecosystems change. Gabriel Singer and team therefore took a close look at the dung of hippopotamus and cattle: the differences in amount and type of the input are significant. 11 June 2020 press release The disease pyramid: environment, pathogen, individual and microbiome A team led by Adeline Loyau uses amphibians as an example to show how the body’s own microbial colonisation influences the interactions between living organisms, the environment and pathogens. This is basic research for health prophylaxis. 9 June 2020 press release Parasitic fungi keep harmful blue-green algae in check Ramsy Agha, Thijs Frenken and Justyna Wolinska found out that a fungal infestation makes cyanobacteria easier to digest for small aquatic organisms. 19 May 2020 press release The combined production of fish and vegetables can be profitable Researchers from IGB have just published an extensive profitability analysis of an aquaponics facility that produces fish and vegetables on a large scale. The result: aquaponics can be financially rewarding. 1 May 2020 press release CO2 emissions from dry inland waters globally underestimated A team with Hans-Peter Grossart found out that in some cases more carbon dioxide is produced in the dry ground than in the water.
