samenvatting

Meer informatie over de partners van het nIOO

Scientists at the Netherlands Institute of Ecology perform leading ecological research on biodiversity, climate change and sustainable use of land and water. They publish the results of their research in over 200 peer-reviewed articles per year, as well as in popular-scientific publications, books, dissertations, blogs and other formats. Over 95% of our scientific publications are open access.

The scientific and the popularising publications of the NIOO-KNAW can be found in the KNAW research portal.

There’s a lot that we can learn from nature! Performing and promoting research, together with policy makers, nature managers and businesses - and sharing the new knowledge it produces. That is NIOO's strength.

NIOO has a vigorous and long-standing commitment to societal impact. Not only is NIOO housed in a sustainable building designed to translate our ecological principles in terms of architecture and construction, we also have a number of units that are tailor-made for disseminating our ecological knowledge to specific target groups, we have a very active outreach policy, and we actively involve citizens in our research through large-scale citizen-science projects.
