Exposition 'Augmented Ecofeminisms: Climate, Water and Women'
This month at NIOO: the art exhibition 'Augmented Ecofeminisms: Climate, Water, and Women'. This exhibition illustrates how the problems associated with climate change differentially affect women in many parts of the world. -
Adaptation of species
In a changing environment, species change as well. During the last decades, human influence has intensified environmental changes, making adaptation even more crucial. Ecologists at NIOO are interested in rapid adaptation of species, both through (micro)evolution and via behavioural plasticity. For this has implications for the success of species, and for biodiversity. -
NLSEB meetings on Evolutionary Biology
The 6th conference of the Netherlands Society for Evolutionary Biology (NLSEB) will take place on the 22nd (PhD/postdoc meeting) and 23rd (main meeting) of April 2024. -
Consortium investigates nature-inclusive use of floating solar panels
The Dutch Research Council (NWO) has awarded more than 2.8 million euros to a consortium led by NIOO's Sven Teurlincx that will investigate the use of floating solar panels. It aims to establish the technological, ecological and social conditions for floating solar energy to have a sustainable future - for people as well as nature, in different landscapes. -
Epigenetics book launch
Hetzelfde DNA maar toch anders. Hoe kan dat? (The same DNA yet different. How is that possible?) is the title of a new book on epigenetics, to be launched in Leiden on 21 December. -
Thesis defence Bernice Sepers: the role of DNA methylation variation in avian personality
On 28 October, Bernice Sepers (Animal Ecology) will defend her thesis on 'Behavioural epigenetics: insights into the role of heritable and induced DNA methylation variation in avian personality' at Wageningen UR. -
NIOO Theme Sustainable use of land and water
Healthy surface water and soils are essential for life on earth. They provide a range of life-supporting functions, including carbon storage, oxygen generation, and nutrient cycling. At NIOO, we combine research on the ecosystem services provided to society with research on how these ecosystem services are impacted by society. -
Thin film of energy
PV foil is 'building-integrated': it collects solar energy, and makes the roof waterproof at the same time. -
Sun = power
Solar energy does not pollute and won’t run out any time soon. But how best to exploit its power? -
Sustainable toilet use
An average toilet cistern has a 10-liter capacity. How can we prevent wasting all that water?
