REstoring rivers FOR effective catchment Management (REFORM)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2011, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2015,
REFORM is targeted towards development of guidance and tools to make river restoration and mitigation measures more cost-effective and to support the 2nd and future River Basin Management Plans (RMBPs) for the WFD. Aims of REFORM are (1) to provide a framework for improving the success of hydromorphological restoration measures and (2) to assess more effectively the state of rivers, floodplains an ...

Intelligent Sensor Network and System Technologies for Fish Farming (SENSORFISH)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2012, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2015,
Fish farming is likely to be the greatest source of increased fish production, and its share in total food fish supply by 2030 is estimated almost equal to the food fish supply from capture fisheries. Intelligent monitoring and control system for fish farming generates labor and energy savings, limit disease and mortality, and increase yields by continuously monitoring and controlling water qualit ...

Adaptive Strategies to Mitigate the Impacts of Climate Change on European Freshwater Ecosystems (REFRESH)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2010, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2014,
Understanding how freshwater ecosystems will respond to future climate change is essential for the development of policies and implementation strategies needed to protect aquatic and riparian ecosystems. The future status of freshwater ecosystems is however, also dependent on changes in land-use, pollution loading and water demand. In addition the measures that need to be taken to restore freshwat ...

Structural and functional biodiversity of humic matter degrading freshwater microbial communities (HUMADE)
Date du début: 1 mai 2011, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2013,
"Humic substances (HS) are complex and heterogeneous mixtures of polymers formed in soils, sediments and natural waters during the decay of plant biomass. HS represent an important carbon source in aquatic environments accounting for up to 80% of the total dissolved organic carbon (DOC). Historically, HS were considered to be biologically inert but discovery of the “microbial loop” changed this vi ...

An Evolutionary Approach to Biodiversity Conservation: Riverine Floodplains of the European Alps as a Model System (FloodplainEvolution)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2010, Date de fin: 31 mars 2012,
The importance of evolutionary relatedness of species is increasingly recognized in both ecology and conservation. What remains is a need for quantitative predictions on the role of evolution and a synthesis of methods. This project uses DNA surveys of aquatic insect communities to measure species diversity and genetic relatedness in riverine floodplains. Riverine floodplains are one of the most b ...
