This is what researchers are investigating together with citizen scientists in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Hesse and Brandenburg. 3 April 2020 press release Do urban fish exhibit impaired sleep? Light pollution can suppress the production of melatonin in fish, even at very low light intensities, a finding established by Franziska Kupprat, Franz Hölker and Werner Kloas from IGB. 20 March 2020 short news Making citizen science more participatory, inclusive and citizen-led The ACTION Accelerator team – led by IGB’s Kat Austen – works with on-the-ground citizen science projects that address pollution. Eleven citizen science projects joined us at IGB for a workshop. 20 January 2020 press release Against light pollution: Guidelines for outdoor lighting A new guideline describes how local authorities can succeed in minimising light pollution by making their street and building lighting more efficient. 16 September 2019 press release Fungicides as an underestimated hazard for freshwater organisms Justyna Wolinska and her Team have found that pollution by fungicides can have unforeseen but far-reaching consequences for the functioning of aquatic systems – like indirectly on the development of algal blooms. 5 September 2019 short news IGB tests species protection through environmentally friendly lighting IGB coordinates a six-year joint project to implement a new street lighting design aimed at minimising light pollution. 27 August 2019 insight Science meets soulbottles Within the workshop series "Uncharted Waters", the IGB regularly invites interesting representatives from businesses, associations and politics to an open exchange. This time, the team of soulbottles was our guest. 1 August 2019 short news Open Call for Citizen Science Projects on Pollution ACTION supports citizen science projects working on pollution of all kinds, such as water, air or light pollution. IGB will be coordinating the ACTION Accelerator programme. Apply till 31st October 2019! 1 August 2019 short news LakeLab: River-lake systems in focus Aquatic ecosystems suffer disproportionately from anthropogenic pressure and the effects of climate change. According to the EU Water Framework Directive, lakes along river systems in particular are currently in poor ecological condition. How similar are lakes that are more or less strongly connected by rivers and how do algal blooms spread along lake chains? These and other questions are being investigated by an IGB research team led by Stella Berger and Sabine Wollrab together with other partners from remote sensing and landscape ecology. 6 June 2019 press release Microorganisms on microplastic Organisms can grow on microplastics and accumulate in the water. Researchers from IGB and IOW have shown that potentially toxin-fproducing microorganisms are also among the top colonisers.
