Researchers from the Technical University of Munich hope to transform building envelopes into animal and plant habitats using a software plug-in that incorporates habitat knowledge into the building design process.
Wolfgang Kießling traces Earth’s history through layers of fossils. The data he uncovers together with his team serves to create a reliable database for climate research, opening up opportunities for nature-based conservation solutions.
Hof University of Applied Sciences is committed to sustainability and “greentech” and is driving innovation through research into sustainable water management.
Research projects at HSWT are investigating the climate-protection potential of peatlands—and are at the heart of environmental protection efforts in Bavaria’s rural landscape.
Biodiversity researchers develop mechanistic simulation models to unravel the processes influencing biodiversity origin, maintenance and dynamics across space and time, from individuals to entire ecosystems.
Scientists at the University of Bayreuth are investigating how extreme weather events affect biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. Together with their international partners, they study the local impacts of global climate change.
Engineers at TH Rosenheim are addressing the challenges facing wood technology with a new logistics concept, dynamic partnerships and sustainable future industry models.
Although more than half of the world’s rivers have been altered by human activity and climate change, the floodplain ecosystems along the Naryn River in Kyrgyzstan remain largely untouched.
Researchers from the Collaborative Research Centre (CRC) Microplastics at the University of Bayreuth have developed a new concept for the production of microplastic reference particles. These make it possible for the first time to introduce a precisely defined number of reference particles into experiments. In future, their use may enable better comparability of data from different microplastic studies.
Der Information Service Provider Clarivate annually measures which researchers are most frequently cited by their peers. Dr. Martin Löder from the Special Research Area (SFB) Microplastics has been listed for the third time. This list is considered proof of the research quality of scientists worldwide.
