But, did this also alter light pollution – the brightening of the night sky caused by too much artificial light? 7 December 2020 insight My research: Dunes in the streambed IGB doctoral student Hanna Schulz tells about streambed sediment in motion, and her research visit to the Zuckerberg Institute for Water Research at the Ben-Gurion University of the Negev in Israel. 25 September 2020 short news Freshwaters under climate stress On the occasion of the global climate strike, we have compiled 10 facts from our studies that underline the need for more climate action. A good read on the way to the demonstration! 23 September 2020 short news Eco-evolutionary dynamics in urban systems International teams with Luc De Meester developed a framework to fully grasp the opportunity to use urbanization as a model system to study eco-evolutionary dynamics. 8 July 2020 short news Evolution: Keeping it smooth How does evolution impact ecological patterns? It helps smooth out the rough edges, says a team of international researchers including Luc De Meester. 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 insight 2 out of 3 at the SIL Student Competition 2020 This year’s winners are Fengzhi He, Mandy Velthuis and Nico Martyniuk.
