Seasonal timing
Species can adapt over the course of time. As the lives of species are altered by climate change, a different seasonal timing could make them adapt to an early spring, for example. How does this work, and what are the limits to such adaptations? -
How do nutrients and temperature affect cyanobacterial bloom toxicity?
Toxic cyanobacterial blooms threaten freshwater quality, made worse by climate change and eutrophication. The toxicity of these blooms depends not only on cyanobacteria quantity but also on the presence potentially toxin-producing species and genotypes, and their varied toxin production. -

Climate change impacts on harmful algal blooms
Harmful cyanobacterial blooms produce toxins that are a major threat to water quality and human health. Blooms increase with eutrophication and are expected to be amplified by climate change. Yet, we lack a mechanistic understanding on the toxicity of blooms, and their response to the complex interplay of multiple global change factors. Bloom toxicity is determined by a combination of mechanisms acting at different ecological scales, ranging from cyanobacterial biomass accumulation in the ecosystem, to the dominance of toxic species in the community, contribution of toxic genotypes in the population, and the amounts of toxins in cells. -
Global comparison shows: soil transplantation boosts nature restoration
A new study comparing 46 field experiments in 17 countries across four continents shows that areas in need of nature restoration benefit from soil transplantation. The results were collected by an international team led by Jasper Wubs (NIOO-KNAW). -
Wereldwijde vergelijking laat zien: bodemtransplantatie geeft natuurherstel boost
Uit 46 experimenten in 17 landen en op 4 continenten blijkt dat gebieden waar natuurherstel nodig is profiteren van bodemtransplantatie, volgens nieuw onderzoek van Jasper Wubs (NIOO-KNAW) in het Journal of Applied Ecology. -
Rewilding-professor Liesbeth Bakker: "Let nature surprise you"
Let nature have its way and it will surprise you, NIOO-researcher Liesbeth Bakker said at her inauguration in Wageningen on 30 September as Europe's first professor of Rewilding Ecology. -
Rewilding-professor Liesbeth Bakker: "Laat je verrassen door de natuur"
Geef de natuur de ruimte om je te verrassen, zei NIOO-onderzoeker Liesbeth Bakker in haar inaugurele rede als eerste buitengewoon hoogleraar Rewilding Ecology van Europa. -
"Grote wetenschappelijke consensus" over basis stikstofplannen
In de stikstofcrisis klinkt steeds weer de roep om meer onderzoek en technische innovaties. Zo blijven we rondjes draaien, waarschuwen wetenschappers van o.a. het NIOO. "De politiek moet doorpakken." -
