Principles and strategies for the procurement of high quality and adaptable forest reproductive material under climate change (Project)

Sustainable wood production starts with forest seeds and plants to establish new forest generations. The project 'AdaptForClim” provides the knowledge base and strategies for the provision of high-quality and adaptive forest reproductive material. It aims to offer forest managers and owners economically and ecologically interesting alternatives with the changing climate to conventionally used...

Development of biomarker for monitoring of pest-tolerant oaks in different climate zones (Project)

The upcoming climate change will be a challenge for a proper and sustainable forestry management in Germany. Besides an increase of extreme weather events as drought and flooding, especially calamities of insects immigrate from Eastern and Southern Europe is predicted. Thereby, the already critical state of health of oak forests will deteriorate because oaks are already the tree genus with the...

Use of chars from pyrolysis and hydrothermal carbonization in agriculture (Project)

Application of biochar in agricultural soils and assessment of their potential to reduce leaching of nutrients and pesticides as well as greenhouse gas emissions from soils is investigated in a broad-based project at the Thünen-Institute of Climate-smart Agriculture since 2010. The use of heavy machinery and mineral fertilizer with the intensification of agriculture led to significantly increased...

Pathways of N2O production and associated isotope effects in arable and grassland soils with special emphasis on the distinction between fungal and bacterial denitrification (Project)

The aim of this research is a better understanding of the pathways of N2O emissions from soil. Isotope analysis and inhibition experiments are used to discriminate between N2O produced during denitrification from bacteria or fungi. The greenhouse gas N2O is formed by various microbiological processes in soils, where nitrification and denitrification play the major role. The contribution to N2O...

Adaptive Resilience in Southern African Ecosystems. Subproject 1: Coordination (Project)

The ARS AfricaE project investigates the coupled carbon and water cycles of natural and disturbed savanna ecosystems by setting up a network of research clusters. Main objectives of the project are 1. setting up a network of research clusters to investigate the effects of disturbance and land use change on water and carbon cycles as well as their interaction along an aridity gradient, l 2. inking...
