This study aims to assess the potential supply of the ecosystem service (ES) nutrient regulation on two spatial scales, the federal German state of Schleswig-Holstein (regional) and the Bornhöved Lakes District (local), ...
Rendon, P.; Erhard, M.; Maes, J.; Burkhard, B.(Milton Park : Taylor & Francis, 2019)
Ecosystem condition is the overall quality of an ecosystem unit, in terms of its biological, physical and chemical characteristics underpinning its capacity to generate ecosystem services. Changes in ecosystem condition ...
Quantitative precipitation estimates (QPE) derived from weather radars provide spatially and temporally highly resolved rainfall data. However, they are also subject to systematic and random bias and various potential ...
The potential of a plant species to acquire nutrients depends on its ability to explore the soil by its root system. Co-cultivation of different species is anticipated to lead to vertical root niche differentiation and ...

Recent scientific developments are advancing to link land use and land cover (LULC) change with ecosystem service (ES) potentials. Such links within peri-urban ecosystems are scanty due to methodological and expertise ...
Formation of mineral-organic associations is a key process in the global carbon cycle. Recent concepts propose litter quality-controlled microbial assimilation and direct sorption processes as main factors in transferring ...
The demand for physical model tests with real vegetation is increasing due to the current trend to elucidate the performance and durability of green coastal infrastructures to ensure and promote ecosystem services. To ...
The present article presents results of a laboratory study on the assessment of erosion patterns around a hydrodynamic transparent offshore foundation exposed to combined waves and currents. The model tests were conducted ...

With the introduction of portable atom interferometers (AI), a genuinely independent method for the determination of g is available for the first time since the introduction of laser interferometer based instruments. Current ...
Die Fachmittelschule (FMS) hat sich ab den 1970er Jahren aus Schulen, welche junge Frauen auf Berufsausbildungen in Gesundheit, Sozialem und Erziehung vorbereiteten, zum dritten, eidgenössisch anerkannten nachobligatorischen ...
Schäfer, Marlin Benedikt(Hannover : Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Universität, 2019)
Gravitational waves are now observed routinely. Therefore, data analysis has to keep up with ever improving detectors. One relatively new tool to search for gravitational wave signals in detector data are machine learning ...

This spring school is part of the DAAD (German academic exchange service) program PeC3 : Peruvian Competence Center of Scientific Computing (https://www.pec3.org/).
How did the upper-secondary specialised school (SpS) establish itself as a school-based pathway to the universities of applied sciences in Switzerland? The sociology of conventions serves to analyse how actors justify and ...
Bensch, Hans-Georg(Hannover : Institutionelles Repositorium der Leibniz Universität Hannover, 2019-11-11)
Anhand der vorgelegten Interpretation eines rätselhaften Geometriebeispiels in Platons Menon-Dialog (St. 86e-87b) wird gezeigt, was Thema des Dialogs ist: Die Lehrbarkeit der Tugend ist nur das Modell, an dem ein Begriff ...
