Veterinary medicinal effects on the prokaryotic structural diversity in soil microcopartments - VMMic (Project)

Soil antibiotics affect adversely soil microbial biomass, activity, structural and functional diversity, and resistance level. We found in the 1st phase of FG566 that antibiotic effects are strongly influenced by manure as a nutrient source and microbial inoculum. Single applications of antibiotics yield mid-term effects on the soil microbial structural diversity. However, major aspects of a...

Interactions between dental surfaces and biogenic films (Project)

Ruminants feed on diverse diets ranging from high-protein leaves to fibre-rich grass. Most grasses may include phytoliths to prevent excessive feeding by herbivorous mammals. In answer to that, herbivores developed co-evolutionary compensation strategies like higher molar crowns to circumvent the mechanical defence of their feeding plants. However, the possible role of salivary components in...

Assessment oBIOACID: Biological Impacts of Ocean Acidification - Biologische Auswirkungen der Ozeanversauerungf fluxes of nitrogen species between the atmosphere and forest ecosystems in the northeast German plain. (Project)

The growing evidence of potential biological impacts of ocean acidification affirms that this global change phenomenon may pose a serious threat to marine organisms and ecosystems. Despite a wealth of knowledge on specific effects of acidification and the related changes in seawater chemistry on the physiology of individual marine taxa, many uncertainties still remain. Because the majority of...

Stable S isotopes as indicators for Sulphur immission and turnover in ecosystems (Project)

The stable S isotope composition differs in sulphur (S) of different origin. S originating from fossil fuel as well as S from fertiliser has a S isotopic composition that clearly differs from naturally occurring S in soils of e.g. agricultural or forest stands. Hence, it is possible to trace S deriving from fertilisers added to agricultural stands as plant nutrient on its way through the...
