Development of decision making bases for the optimised variable rate application of fertilizers (Project)
Sustainable farming systems require soil fertility status to be maintained at a level that supports satisfactory plant growth while minimising nutrient loss to the environment. Because soils within farmed landscapes are heterogeneous, the amount of nutrients required to support optimal plant growth will differ in relation to soil type, the soil?s nutrient status, the crops´ growth potential...

Identification and quantification of pharmaceutical compounds in farmyard manures and fertilizers from secondary raw material (Project)
The correct identification and quantification of pharmaceutical compounds in farmyard manures and fertilizers from secondary raw material is becoming of increasing importance because these compounds are an unknown risk for soils, soil organisms, and groundwater. The long-term consequences of pharmaceutical compounds and their metabolites on plant growth and plant quality are largely unknown. It...

Alterations in the lifetime of forest stands: Economic consequences of climate change for forestry enterprises. Management options for optimizing risk-return ratios under a changing climate. (Module 1) (Project)
Forestry faces additional risks due to the consequences of climate change. The objective of this project is to generate models describing the entire range of survival times and risks for mortality and the factors that influence them based on a European data set. The respective models will be validated using experimental plots and, subsequently, applied to real and idealized forest estates....

Phosphorus Recycling of Mixed Substances. Subproject: Energy and phosphorus recovery from agricultural waste and sludge by thermal processes (Project)
PROMISE can be described as a continuative and subsidiary, yet discrete project of the approved flagship project BalticManure (Baltic forum for inventive technologies for sustainable manure management). The overall target of PROMS is to deliver strategies and tools for closing the phosphorous (P) cycles in the BSR and reducing significantly the discharge of P from agriculture into the Baltic Sea....

Development of an adaptive and multifunctional networked sensor system for the detection, localization and classification of hazards for the protection of the forest (Project)
Forest ecosystems are influenced by widely varying environmental factors. The forests are exposed by these factors to constant changes and are put at risk. The established forest monitoring networks observe the ecological systems throughout Europe. But they do not provide immediate risk assessment at extreme weather events and appropriate countermeasures. The current forest monitoring is focused...

Expansion of the timber species spectrum in climate change: drought tolerance of secondary tree species and cultivation potentials in a drier climate (Project)
Climate change models predict an increase in summer temperature and decrease in summer precipitation in parts of central and eastern Germany, which may expose forests to increased drought stress in the future. Silvicultural management will face new challenges concerning the choice of tree species, especially due to the fact that Euro-pean beech may fail in many of the production forests in this...

Regional climate protection contribution of forests without forestry use (Project)
Unmanaged forests can make large contributions to the fight against climate change. Via the project “Regionaler Klimaschutzbeitrag von Wäldern ohne forstliche Nutzung (Acronym: SpeicherWald)”, Climate Alliance and the Naturschutzbund Deutschland e.V. (Nature and Biodiversity Conservation Union – NABU) are showing how through various informational materials and regional events.With their trees and...

The 'Offensive Holzbrückenbau' represents an important contribution to the current awareness of modern timber bridge construction, its material-related attractiveness as well as the profit for climate protection in the awareness of construction workers and building decision-makers (Project)
Recent developments in timber construction technology and building policy as well as a change in user interests suggests that timber will be playing a more important role in the building industry.The increasing requirements in mobility that in connected to modern lifestyles will lead to a raising need of in-frastructure and bridges in all new dimensions.However, the building material timber does...

Risc assessment for scale insects in German vineyards with regard to leafroll virus epidemiology (Project)
The project aims to check the role of scale insects (Homoptera: Coccina) in German vineyards as potential vectors of leafroll viruses. Leafroll disease might be an upcoming problem in this region. The investigations should built a base for a renewed risk assessment and if necessary for newly integrated control strategies towards the vector.
