Projects

This project aims to understand how climate variability and land cover changes affect ecohydrological water partitioning across the soil-plant-atmosphere continuum (SPAC).

Using the example of the western Baltic cod (Gadus morhua), in this project we are interdisciplinarily studying questions of responsibility and reorganization of the commercial and recreational fisheries.

The nature of interactions between the freshwater mosses, their microbiome, and the associated toxic cyanobacteria

Neurotoxic cyanobacteria in association with aquatic plants pose a real health threat, which could even further increase in the future.

In this scientific network, we are investigating social-ecological networks in urban areas in an international and interdisciplinary team over a period of three years.

LILA (Lake Issyk-Kul Environmental Laboratory)

Effects of non-stationary flow and a moving riverbed on organic trace substances.

BioAgora aims to connect research results on biodiversity to the needs of decision-making in a targeted dialogue between scientists, other knowledge holders and policy actors.
