Aktuelle Modelle zur Beschreibung benthischer Prozesse in der Nordsee behandeln nur unvollständige Ausschnitte aus dem Gesamtsystem. Dies ist auf eine nur lückenhafte Kenntnis über die im Benthos ablaufenden Prozesse zurückzuführen. Im beantragten Forschungsvorhaben soll die strukturelle und funktionelle Charakterisierung benthischer mikrobieller Gemeinschaften in verschiedenen durch die Markofauna definierten Subsysteme der südlichen und zentralen Nordsee (Deutsche Bucht, Niederländische Küste, Oyster Ground, Doggerbank, östliche Nordsee, Skagerrak und Kattegat) untersucht werden. Zum Verständnis benthischer Prozesse soll zusätzlich der qualitative und quantitative Eintrag von organischem Material sowie dessen Umsetzung im System betrachtet werden. Durch parallele Untersuchungen der Makrofaunastruktur (Dr. I. Kröncke, Forschungsinstitut Senckenberg) werden Aufschlüsse über die Wechselwirkungen zwischen verschiedenen Größenklassen und deren Rolle am Transfer von organischem Material in den einzelnen Subsystemen erwartet. Aus dem Zusammenhang von Struktur und Funktion komplexer Gemeinschaften, die in diesem Umfang bislang noch nicht in der Nordsee untersucht wurden, werden Hinweise auf die Bedeutung verschiedenen benthischer Systeme für den Stoff- und Energieaustausch erwartet. Daher können die aus dem beantragten Forschungsvorhaben erwarteten Ergebnisse maßgeblich zum Verständnis benthischer Prozesse beitragen und der Modellierung zugeführt werden.

Im Rahmen des SFB 275 (Universität Tübingen) wurden innerhalb der ersten Antragsphase (1995-1997) die Schwarzschiefer des Unteren Toarciums SW-Deutschlands bearbeitet. In der zweiten Antragsphase (1998-2000) wurde/wird die Schwarzschiefer-Genese in verschiedenen Ablagerungsmilieus unterschiedlicher Zeitscheiben untersucht. Eine Förderung von weiteren zwei Jahren wird beantragt, um die Datenbasis stratigraphisch zu erweitern und ein Synthese-Modell für die Schwarzschieferbildung in Trias und Jura zu erarbeiten.
The "Germany Mosaic" is a time series of Landsat satellite images and vectorized segments covering the entirety of Germany from 1984 to 2023. The image data are divided into TK100 sheet sections (see further details: Blattschnitt der Topographischen Karte 1:100 000). The dataset provides optimized 6-band imagery for each year, representing summer (May to July) and autumn (August to October) seasons, along with vegetation indices such as NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) and NirV (Near-Infrared Reflectance of Vegetation) for the same periods. Additionally, vectorized "zones" of approximately homogeneous pixels are available for each year. The spectral properties of the image data and the morphological characteristics of these zones are included as vector attributes (see Documentation: "Mosaic (1984–2023) - Data Description"). An overview of the coverage and quality of all sheet sections is provided as a vector layer titled D-Mosaik_Sheet-Sections within this document. The Germany Mosaic can also be considered a spatial-temporal Data Cube, enabling advanced analysis and integration into workflows requiring multi-dimensional data. This structure allows users to perform operations such as querying data across specific time periods, analyzing trends over decades, or aggregating spatial information to generate tailored insights for a wide range of research applications. In mid-latitudes, seasonal variations in vegetation—and consequently in the image data—are typically more pronounced than changes occurring over several years. The temporal segmentation of the dataset has been designed to encompass the entire vegetation period (May to October), with the division into summer and autumn periods capturing seasonal metabolic shifts in natural biotopes. This segmentation also records most agricultural changes, including sowing and harvesting activities. Depending on weather conditions, the individual image data represent either the median, mean value, or the best available image for the specified time period (see Documentation: "Mosaic (1984–2023) - Data Description). Remote sensing has become an indispensable tool for environmental research, particularly in landscape analysis. Beyond conventional applications, the Germany Mosaic supports the development of digital twins in environmental system research. By providing detailed spatial and temporal data, this dataset enables the modeling of virtual ecosystems, facilitating simulations, scenario testing, and predictive analyses for sustainable management. Moreover, the spatial and temporal trends captured by remotely sensed parameters complement traditional approaches in biological, ecological, geographical, and epidemiological research.

Flache Süßwasser-Lebensräume bieten wichtige Ökosystem-Funktionen, sind aber von multiplen Stressoren bedroht. Während die Reaktion auf den globalen Klimawandel wahrscheinlich eher graduell ist, sind abrupte Veränderungen möglich, wenn kritische Schwellenwerte durch zusätzliche Effekte lokaler Stressoren überschritten werden. Die Analyse dieser Effekte ist komplex, da Stressoren additiv, synergistisch oder antagonistisch wirken können. CLIMSHIFT zielt auf ein mechanistisches Verständnis von Stressor-Interaktionen, die auf flache aquatische Ökosysteme wirken. Diese sind aufgrund ihrer hohen Oberfläche-zu-Volumen-Verhältnisse, der großen Ufer-Grenzfläche und der Grundwasser-Konnektivität besonders anfällig für Klimaerwärmung und Stoffeinträge aus landwirtschaftlichen Einzugsgebieten. Die komplexen Wechselwirkungen zwischen verschiedenen Primärproduzenten sowie assoziierten Konsumenten führen zum Auftreten stabiler Regime, und multiple Stressoren können nichtlineare Übergänge zwischen diesen Regimen auslösen, mit weitreichenden Folgen für entscheidende Ökosystemprozesse und -funktionen. Unsere Haupthypothese ist, dass erhöhte Temperaturen die negativen Auswirkungen der landwirtschaftlichen Stoffeinträge, die Nitrat, organische Pestizide und Kupfer enthalten, verstärken. Submerse Makrophyten, Periphyton und Phytoplankton als Primärproduzenten werden kombiniert mit Schnecken, die Periphyton und Pflanzen fressen, sowie benthischen und pelagischen Phytoplankton-Filtriern, Dreissena und Daphnien. Wir testen unterschiedliche Expositionsszenarien auf zwei räumlichen Skalen, Mikrokosmen im Labor und Mesokosmen im Freiland, um Effekte auf individueller, gemeinschaftlicher und ökosystemarer Ebene zu verstehen. Während des gesamten Projekts werden die Experimente durch Modellierungen ergänzt, um kritische Schwellwerte zu simulieren und Stress-Interaktionen vorherzusagen. Die Modellentwicklung wird in Zusammenarbeit mit allen Arbeitspaketen durchgeführt, um empirische Ergebnisse zu integrieren, unterschiedliche räumliche und zeitliche Skalen zu verknüpfen und Ergebnisse zu extrapolieren. Wir erwarten, dass kombinierte Stressoren zu plötzlichen Verschiebungen der Gemeinschaftsstruktur führen. Submerse Makrophyten werden voraussichtlich durch Phytoplankton oder benthische Algen ersetzt, mit Konsequenzen für wichtige Ökosystemfunktionen. Die Stärke unseres Antrages liegt darin, dass ökotoxikologische Stressindikatoren der Organismen wie Wachstum und Biomarker mit funktionalen Gemeinschafts-/Ökosystemansätzen kombiniert werden, die den Metabolismus und die Dynamik des Ökosystems betrachten. Das kombinierte Know-how von 5 Laboren mit komplementärem Fachwissen und allen notwendigen Einrichtungen wird die spezifische Projektfähigkeit sicherstellen. Unsere Ergebnisse sollen dazu beitragen, safe operating spaces/sichere Handlungsräume für eine nachhaltige Landwirtschaft und das Management von flachen aquatischen Ökosystemen in einer sich verändernden Welt zu definieren.
