At the end of April, IGB scientists and representatives of the Nature And Biodiversity Conservation Union (NABU) met on an excursion on the river Havel. 5 December 2017 short news New Atlas for Kharaa Yeröö River Basin in Mongolia Mongolia is characterised by water scarcity as well as dynamic changes and conflicts of water use in the water sector. IGB is f.i. responsible for the Kharaa Yeröö River Basin Atlas. 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. 24 October 2017 press release Flagship species could help protect freshwaters 83 per cent of all the world’s threatened freshwater species occur in the same areas as the “imposing” freshwater species examined within the study – all of which are potential ambassadors for their ecosystem. 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. 4 September 2017 insight Being prepared for epidemical outbreaks IGB scientists are now part of the “rapid deployment expert group to combat health threats”, which shall enable a faster international response to outbreaks of infectious diseases. 23 August 2017 short news Dead wood – living diversity The team of the IGB project Baggersee is currently working on various quarry ponds in Lower Saxony: the researchers are particularly attracted by dead wood. 9 August 2017 short news Too many aquatic plants in the lake? For several years, scientists and swimmers have observed a great increase in the number of aquatic plants in the Müggelsee. Whoever looks closely, also sees that the lake is currently very clear. 23 June 2017 press release Understanding animal social networks can aid wildlife conservation The usefulness of animal social network analysis as a conservation tool has not yet been addressed. But the understanding of relationships between animals could be applied by wildlife managers and conservationists to support their work. 14 June 2017 press release Research on an equal footing promotes sustainability A socio-ecological experiment with anglers shows that the ecological competencies are thus improved and ecological actions are encouraged among users and managers of natural resources.
