Projects

The “GeoFRESH” online platform will allow high-resolution geospatial queries of the global hydrographic network, and enables users to download analysis-ready environmental data.

The nature of interactions between the freshwater mosses, their microbiome, and the associated toxic cyanobacteria

The relative influence of biodiversity and biotic interactions on the early stages of phytoplankton bloom formation.

Neurotoxic cyanobacteria in association with aquatic plants pose a real health threat, which could even further increase in the future.

In this scientific network, we are investigating social-ecological networks in urban areas in an international and interdisciplinary team over a period of three years.

Restore4Life showcases the remarkable socio-economic benefits derived from a comprehensive and interdisciplinary approach to restoring freshwater and coastal wetlands in the Danube basin. By creating new blue-green infrastructure that bolsters regional climate change resilience and mitigation efforts, Restore4Life paves the way for a sustainable future.

Our project aims to understand the evolution of individual and collective intelligence in fish due to size-selective harvesting (like in fisheries) and the fitness consequences using zebrafish as a model.
