AKWA

Putting aquatic ecology into practice

Aquatic Knowledge Centre Wageningen (AKWA) translates state-of-the art scientific knowledge into practical solutions for water issues. AKWA is an initiative of the department of Aquatic Ecology (NIOO-KNAW), together with the Aquatic Ecology & Water Quality Management Group of Wageningen UR.

Stimulated by the growing interest for research valorization in the Netherlands, AKWA wants to put her valuable scientific knowledge into practice. Therefore, AKWA seeks to collaborate with stakeholders with a vested interest in water, such as water boards, water researchers, consultancy agencies, nature managers, and civil-technical bureaus.

AKWA helps solving water issues

We offer advice, research and training in the field of water quality and functioning of aquatic ecosystems. We can draw on a broad array of approaches, such as field monitoring, field and indoor-enclosures, controlled-lab experiments, time-series analyses, advanced statistics and model-analyses. We have access to the excellent experimental and analytical facilities of the NIOO-KNAW. Recent projects include water quality assessment of a catchment area, data analysis and evaluation of the construction of NVOs (nature-friendly banks).

Who is AKWA?

AKWA is imbedded in a group of researchers with a sound scientific background, both at the NIOO and the WUR. Active within this group are plankton specialists, macrophyte specialists, microbial specialists, modelers and biochemists, with both a broad as well as deep understanding of the functioning of aquatic ecosystems.

AKWA is pulled by aquatic ecologist Dr Lisette N. de Senerpont Domis, with more than ten years’ experience in aquatic ecology and a special interest in climate change. Dr. Miquel Lurling coordinates the WUR activities within AKWA. He has over 20 years of experience in aquatic ecology, with a special interest in eutrophication and harmful algal blooms.

Diepe uiterwaardplassen: verondiepen of niet? NIOO-KNAW, Deltares, Natuurplaza en B-WARE zijn voor het project 'Diepe uiterwaardplassen: verondiepen of niet?' op zoek naar een stagiair(e). De stage begint in mei of juni (in overleg), voor een duur van drie maanden of langer. De standplaats is Wageningen (NIOO-KNAW) of Nijmegen (B-WARE). De...Read more
Effect of wastewater treatment on reducing negative ecological impacts of psychoactive drugs Emerging pollutants such as psychoactive drugs have increasingly been detected in surface water and wastewater, raising concerns about a potential threat to humans and ecosystems. There is growing evidence that psychoactive drugs can negatively impact aquatic organisms via alternations in behavior...Read more
Mesocosm experiment For the summer period 2018 (July, August, September) we are looking for a motivated student (BSc or MSc) from the field of biology/environmental- or aquatic sciences (or other related), who wants to gain experience in a big mesocosm experiment (Limnotrons, https://nioo.knaw.nl/en/facilities-nioo )...Read more
Testing ecosystem level consequences of pharmaceutical induced disruption of aquatic chemical communication: a mesocosm approach Over a million people use psychopharmaceuticals like anti-depressants and anti-psychotics in the Netherlands. The environmental impacts of this micropollutant is gaining attention in the recent decades. Residue from human excretion, hospital waste and surface runoff (veterinary pharmaceuticals) can...Read more

Our modern, state of the art research facilities allow us to experimentally study a variety of aquatic organism groups in experimental laboratory settings ranging from small-scale flow through systems, photobioreactors and chemostats over microcosms to mesoscale laboratory ecosystems (1000-L Limnotrons).

In addition, we perform experiments at more realistic spatial and temporal scales in our outdoor enclosure facilities and experimental ponds area (Loenderveen). For our experimental studies, we fully employ the climate controlled culturing facilities that the department has at its disposal. The broad range of state-of-the-art analytical equipment (e.g. flowcytometry, Cytobuoy, FlowCam, IRMS, ICP, molecular lab), that is operated by highly skilled technicians, allows us to tackle innovative, multi-facetted questions.

Through our collaboration with the colleagues of the Water Quality and Ecosystem management group at the Wageningen University, we are also able to track the fate of a broad variety of toxins in the aquatic food web.
