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. -
A living, breathing building
As sustainable as possible, in as many respects as possible: that was the imperative when the Netherlands Institute of Ecology (NIOO-KNAW) commissioned a new building. And we have done it! -
Working together
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. -
Samenwerken
Van de natuur valt veel te leren! Onderzoek stimuleren, samen met beleidsmakers, natuurbeheerders en bedrijven onderzoek doen en die nieuwe kennis daarna delen. Dat is de kracht van het NIOO. -
Een gebouw dat leeft
Het Nederlands Instituut voor Ecologie (NIOO-KNAW) wilde een zo duurzaam mogelijk gebouw, in allerlei opzichten, als nieuwe vestiging. -
Light Pollution
Illumination of forest edges leads to a decrease in moth numbers and changes in the behaviour and success of bigger day as well as night-active animals in the long run. What did we find out at NIOO and what can we do with these results? -
Nieuw afdelinghoofd Suzanne McGowan: "Waternetwerken doen de afvalverwerking van de wereld"
Suzanne McGowan versterkt na de zomer het NIOO als nieuw hoofd Aquatische Ecologie. -
New NIOO department head Suzanne McGowan: "Water networks are the world’s waste disposal system"
New head of Aquatic Ecology Suzanne McGowan comes to NIOO with a passion for lakes, wide experience working across disciplines and a research and teaching record that includes Malaysia and Greenland. -
Lichtvervuiling
Verlichting in bosranden leidt op langere termijn tot de afname van het aantal nachtvlinders en verstoring van het gedrag van grotere dag- en nachtdieren. Wat is de impact van lichtkleur, en hoe kunnen we de verstoring van de natuur zoveel mogelijk verminderen? -
Predicting plant-soil feedbacks from plant traits
In nature, plants cannot grow without soil biota such as fungi and bacteria. Successful plants are able to harness positive, growth-promoting soil organisms while avoiding the negative effects of others. Which plant traits can predict these interactions, or the success of a plant? Researchers and plant breeders would like to know. In a paper in the Journal of Ecology of August 24, a team from the Netherlands Institute of Ecology (NIOO-KNAW), Wageningen University and the Universität Leipzig tested exactly this and found thick roots to be a leading trait.
