CLIMSHIFT aims for a mechanistic under-standing of stressor interactions acting on shallow aquatic systems, which are especially vulnerable to climate warming and agricultural run-off.
The main objective of this project is to identify the key-factors of organic matter turnover in inundated peatlands. Based on our findings we might improve our predictions regrading the restoration of degraded peatlands.
FIThydro addresses the decision support in commissioning and operating hydro-power plants (HPP) through the use of existing and innovative technologies and the integration of ecological, technical, economic and societal perspectives to improve sustainable hydropower use at a maximum mitigation of ecological impacts.
Eutrophication is a worldwide environmental problem accelerated by global warming, affecting the stability of aquatic ecosystems and having long-lasting consequences. In this project we investigate if and how eutrophication affects two interacting evolutionary processes: disease spread and interspecific hybridization.
