Centre of Excellence launched at Naturalis Biodiversity Gala
02/10/2020 At the Naturalis Biodiversity Gala, NIOO-director Geert de Snoo presented the new Centre of Excellence for Netherlands Biodiversity Research: a joint venture that brings together four leading Dutch knowledge institutes. -
Extinction of Pleistocene herbivores induced major vegetation and landscape changes
The extinction of large herbivores such as mammoths could explain massive prehistoric changes in vegetation and landscape structure, with major implications for our understanding of present-day ecosystems. Modern and paleo-ecologists joined forces in an international study led by the Netherlands Institute of Ecology (NIOO-KNAW). The results are being published online by PNAS this week. -
Uitsterven grote planteneters veroorzaakte enorme veranderingen in landschap
Het uitsterven van grote planteneters zoals mammoeten blijkt ingrijpende prehistorische veranderingen in plantengroei en landschap te verklaren. Die kwamen dus niet alleen door klimaatverandering, zoals eerder gedacht. De gevolgen zien we vandaag de dag nog, zoals de toegenomen kans op natuurbranden en een verstoring van de voedingsstoffen-kringloop. Een internationaal team onder leiding van het Nederlands Instituut voor Ecologie (NIOO-KNAW) publiceert dat deze week in PNAS. -

Biodiversity XL Live: The Sound of Biodiversity
Yet another fascinating episode is coming up for the BiodiversityXL Live short livestream series: the Sound of Biodiversity! More and more different approaches and techniques are used, in the hope to gain more knowledge about biodiversity. They help us to look very detailed at individuals, species and ecosystems. But let's not forget about our ears. Sound can tell a lot about the presence of species, but also about their behaviour. Sounds we can hear, like bird songs, but also sounds we can not hear. How do we monitor biodiversity via sound? -
