APHAEA - Harmonised approaches in monitoring wildlife population health and ecology and abundance (Project)
Aphaea (harmonised Approaches in monitoring wildlife Population Health, And Ecology and Abundance) is a European network of expert groups in animal health and wildlife research involving 7 countries. Aphaea will function as a platform for the harmonisation of methods for monitoring of wildlife pathogens and wildlife populations with relevance to human and livestock health. Aphaea builds forward...

INTERREG - Determination of nitrogen loads from animal husbandry to formulate innovative approaches for sustainable agriculture and peatland protection (ERNST) (Project)
The German-Dutch border region with the International Nature Reserve Bourtanger Moor - Bargerveen is characterized by its vast and cultivated peat bogs. Areas where peat cutting is still a common practice as well as protected fields are located in a region that is dominated by intensive agricultural land use and animal husbandry, particularly by poultry farms in Germany. Atmospheric ammonia loads...

CC LandStraD, Subproject 1.3: Analysing the relationship between landscape and land-use parameters and High Nature Value (HNV) farmland (Project)
Land-use strategies aimed at climate change mitigation or adaptation lead to changes in land use. Land-use change is currently one of most important drivers of biodiversity change. An increase in cultivation of biomass for energy production, for instance, could pose both substantial risks and prospects to biodiversity. One the one hand, expanding agricultural biomass production may lead to a loss...

Characterization and localization of High Nature Value (HNV) farming in Germany (Project)
High Nature Value (HNV) farmland comprises those areas in Europe where agricultural practices support or are associated with a high species and habitat diversity. HNV farming in the EU is threatened by intensification and abandonment of agricultural land use. Preserving HNV farming is a central aim of the EU Common Agricultural Policy. Therefore all EU member states are called upon identifying...

Field studies on the interaction of heat stress and elevated atmospheric CO2 concentrations on growth and grain development of wheat (Project)
Recent modeling studies addressing the effect of future climate change on wheat revealed that drought stress and especially heat stress will substantially impair the yield stability of wheat not only in Germany and Europe but also on a global level. The algorithm in the model for the assessment of the heat stress effect on total plant and especially on grain growth is based on previous...

Experimental and modeling studies on the interaction of drought and elevated atmospheric CO2 concentrations on root growth of maize and sorghum (Project)
Sorghum is a C4 crop adapted to warm growing conditions and has also a high growth potential under restricted water availability due its high water use efficiency. Thus, this plant might be an alternative bioenergy crop to maize especially under future climate conditions with increasing summer drought in Europe. However, root growth and the processes related to the acquisition of water have not...

Diversified cropping systems for optimized multifunctional production of biomass on marginal land (DIVERSYMASS) (Project)
The objectives of DIVERSYMASS are to optimise the economic, agronomic, environmental and societal benefits of multifunctional biomass production under land conditions where cost-effective intensive production with existing cultivation techniques is not possible under given environmental or macro-economic conditions. A diversification of the cropping system will help to optimise yield, yield...

Development of measurement protocols for the detection of particle size distributions in the micrometer and nanometer range in complex matrices using light scattering methods and field-flow fractionation (Project)
The particle size has a significant impact on the processing characteristics of foods, their sensory and nutritional properties. While the detection of particle sizes in pure powders, dispersions or emulsions is often easily, size distributions in complex matrices (food, culture media for cell culture, microbiology, etc.) are recognizable only after a specific sample preparation. It should be...
