  6. Five years as a director: a retrospective and a peek at the future

    News
    Until October last year, Geert de Snoo was at the helm of the Netherlands Institute of Ecology (NIOO-KNAW). A few months later, we look back with him on five years of directorship and talk about his new role as director of research policy at the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW).

  7. SPARKLES: Responsible Upscaling of Floating Solar

    Project 2024–2028
    To meet the goals of the Dutch Climate Act, large-scale solar energy deployment is essential—but space is limited. Floating Photovoltaics (FPV) on inland waters offer a promising solution, yet their environmental impact remains poorly understood, and clear policies are lacking. SPARKLES bridges the gap between energy science, ecology, and governance to develop sustainable, nature-inclusive FPV solutions. Through interdisciplinary research and stakeholder collaboration, the project aims to balance renewable energy production with ecological and social benefits at local, regional, and national scales.

  9. Do methane cycling microbes keep Arctic lakes in check?

    News
    How do microbes influence the methane release in the arctics? And how will climate change influence these microorganisms? These questions and more are what a new research project led by Suzanne McGowan of the Netherlands Institute of Ecology (NIOO-KNAW) will try to answer.

  10. Climate proof soils by steering soil and residue microbiomes to improve the physical, chemical and microbial properties of compost with clay

    Internship
    This research is part of the ClipsMicro (Climate proof soils by steering soil and residue microbiomes) project and aims to make Maize cultivation on sandy Dutch soils more sustainable and resilient by designing and testing a climate proof soils management strategy. We integrate cover crops with biological nitrification inhibition (WP 3) and clay-amended compost (WP 2). Here you can contribute to WP 2, focusing on the clay-amended compost research.
