Time, to make up a first balance. And to talk about research & family, and her future plans. 26 April 2018 press release When lakes start to sweat Rising temperatures are a threat to the balance of lakes. In a new IGB Dossier, researchers provide a summary of the changes that lakes are already undergoing and of the scenarios that are likely to occur. 5 February 2018 press release An underestimated threat: land-based pollution with microplastics Researchers warn: the impact of microplastics in soils, sediments and the freshwaters could have a long-term negative effect on terrestrial ecosystems throughout the world. 22 November 2017 press release Climate change enhances methane emissions from freshwaters A temperature rise of only 1°C would lead to six to 20 percent higher emissions of methane bubbles – which in turn would result in an additional increase in temperature. 11 November 2017 insight Fighting Light Pollution: Galileo Award for Sibylle Schroer IGB scientist Dr. Sibylle Schroer has been awarded the 2017 Galileo Award by the International Dark-Sky Association (IDA) for her outstanding achievements in research on light pollution. 3 November 2017 short news The Microbiome of our Earth A huge international research collaboration catalogued the planet’s microbial diversity at unprecedented scale and compiled the world's first reference database of bacteria colonising our planet. 27 September 2017 short news Take off: Remote Sensing of Inland Waters An inter-institute measuring campaign for the remote sensing of various inland waters in Saxony-Anhalt shall provide new information about this type of data collection. 21 September 2017 press release In times of climate change: What a lake’s colour can tell about its condition The warming of large lakes amplifies their colour. Contrary to previous assumptions, the warming of lakes tends to amplify their richness or poverty of phytoplankton. Lakes which are green become greener, blue lakes become even bluer. 31 August 2017 short news Environmental pollution: Diverse fungus communities on microplastics A team of IGB scientists has identified microplastics as habitat for numerous microorganisms, including more than 80 different fungi species. 11 August 2017 insight Sonja Jähnig joins the Excellence Portal AcademiaNet The leader of the IGB research group Global Change Effects on River Ecosystems was nominated by the Leibniz-Association.
