MSc thesis or internship: restoration ecology Swedish Peatlands
A new large FORMAS-funded project (FORMAS = Swedish research council) will evaluate the effect of rewetting drained peatlands on hydrology, water chemistry, greenhouse gases, and vegetation. Many drained peatlands in Sweden are cu ...

MSc thesis or internship: field campaign for assessing Safe operating Space for European peatlands
Wetlands store significant amounts of soil carbon and freshwater on Earth, regulate climate and flooding, and provide habitat for biodiversity and people. Yet, over a third of the global wetlands have disappeared, with the most se ...

MSc thesis or MSc internship: developing peatland restoration monitoring protocol for Irish peatland
Background Peatlands are the world’ champion in storing atmospheric carbon for millennia as long as they remain wet. Once the peat layers become exposed to oxygen, for example after drainage, the stored carbon is lost to the  ...

MSc thesis/internship: Can solar parks contribute to the recovery of butterfly populations in agricultural landscapes?
The agricultural landscape will change drastically in the coming decades because of the increasing demand for solar parks. These solar parks provide us with sustainable, green electricity and may also contribute in solving part  ...

Plant biodiversity and ecosystem functioning
Various studies have shown that local losses in plant diversity (also called alpha diversity loss) can decrease the functioning of ecosystems, including their ability to produce biomass. What is less known, is whether another comm ...

How do grazers affect soil carbon storage?
Temperate grasslands store large amounts of carbon, and the vast majority of this carbon is stored belowground. Thereby, they can play a key role in mitigating climate change. But how can we maximize their carbon sequestration pot ...

Ecosystem services – erosion resistance, drought resistance, fire risk- of grassland road verges
Recent studies show that the benefit that road verges have on biodiversity, should not be underestimated. Well managed and biodiverse road verges may also provide ecosystem services, such as erosion resistance, drought resistance  ...

MSc thesis: Stimulating flower-rich grassland on clay dikes
Dikes are often very varied, relatively nutrient-poor habitats, and can be home to typical grassland vegetation types (In Dutch for instance stroomdalgralsand or glanshaverhooiland) and can be great habitats for insects. Because o ...
