Microbiome Influence on Energy balance and Brain Development-Function Put into Action to Tackle Diet-related Diseases and Behavior (MyNewGut)

Date du début: 1 déc. 2013, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2018,

Emerging evidence indicates that the gut microbiome contributes to our ability to extract energy from the diet and influences development and function of the immune, endocrine and nervous systems, which regulate energy balance and behaviour. This has led to hypothesize that developing microbiome-based dietary interventions can be cost-effective measures to prevent diet-related and behavioural diso ...

Developing Improved Estimations of Soil CO2 Effluxes at ecosystem Level (DIESEL)

Date du début: 1 janv. 2015, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2017,

"Most studies consider soil CO2 effluxes as directly corresponding to soil respiration. However, in the short term the soil CO2 efflux can deviate from instantaneous soil respiration whenever a change occurs in the amount of CO2 stored in the soil pore-spaces. Gaps in soil CO2 efflux measurements usually are filled using the soil temperature as a predictor. The relationship between soil temperatur ...
