AQUACOSM-plus is an EU network of leading aquatic mesocosm facilities. Within this network our group develops new technological capabilities for mesocosm research to effectively execute climate change ...

The graduate student on this project will spend summers in the Bay Area of California camping at the Blue Oak Ranch Reserve where they will lead a field crew to complete yearly field sampling of ...

CMO is made up of several labs and facilities. Its Ocean-Sea Ice Mesocosm Facility consists of two outdoor pools designed to simultaneously accommodate contaminated and controlled experiments on ...

As a PRA, my expertise lies in identification of parasites using molecular and morphological techniques, developing and running ELISA, preparation and execution of laboratory and mesocosm experiments, ...

Laboratory, mesocosm, field, and data mining studies are used with seasonal wetlands (primarily vernal pools and rock pools) to address questions at all ecological levels (individual to ecosystem). My ...

The excursion group from Münster arrived safely in Belo Horizonte and was welcomed by Prof. Dr. Ricardo Solar at the airport in Confins. The group of German and Brazilian students from different ...
