Human influence on antibiotics in a riverine system in India.

BAUM aims at the assessment, discussion, and acceptance of municipal climate adaptation measures to retain water and nutrients in two rural regions in the Federal State of Brandenburg.

A new EU regulation to address invasive species entered into force at the beginning of 2015. IGB is involved in a project run by the German Federal Agency for Nature Conservation (BfN) in which a method is being further developed to identify invasive species that are of particular concern in Germany in the context of this EU regulation.

The MoMo III project works towards the development and implementation of an integrated water resources management (IWRM) for a Mongolian model region.

Scientific investigations in mining landscape on the example of the problem "Brown Spree". Long-term development of sulphate concentration in the Spree and Müggelsee ...

We analyse the effects of wind-induced mixing on phytoplankton development in the shallow lake Tai near Shanghai.

Large-scale citizen science study on green-house gas concentration and microbial diversity in German inland waters

Invasion biology has addressed or even solved several key questions about biological invasions, but the central issue of long-term effects of invasive species has remained critically unexplored. Several case studies exist about long-term population dynamics of invasive species and their impacts, but a general synthesis or understanding is currently lacking. This knowledge gap is critical, as long-term shifts in invader population densities and traits are likely and may have large consequences of ecological and economic interest. This project aims to narrow the knowledge gap.
