This will contribute to a major research project on effects of N deposition.Ĭontact Per Gundersen Ash Dieback I: structures of bacterial/fungal root microbiomes of selected Fraxinus species It is possible to scale this project to different sizes and one or two participants. Practical work (indentifying sites, soil sampling, and soil analysis) can be combined with an extensive literature review.
Giant hogweed (bjørneklo), Prunus serotina (glansbladet hæg)). I suggest analysing the soil nutrient capital and N leaching at paired plots with and with-out selected invasive species (e.g. My hypothesis is that invasion is enhanced by nutrient enrichment especially input of mineral nitrogen. We are facing major threats to local indigenous biodiversity from a long list of invasive plants. This will contribute to a major research project on effects of N deposition.Ĭontact Per Gundersen Are invasive plant establishment enhanced by soil nutrient enrichment?
We will visit pairs of managed and un-managed forests for soil and soil water sampling. This project can combine a data compilation from the literature with field work. Is this a general phenomenon in regions with moderate to high nitrogen (N) deposition? In forest reserves with no harvest of biomass, there is no mechanism to remove N, thus excess N may either accumulate in the soil or leach to the groundwater. We have observed high nitrate leaching in a few forest reserves in Denmark. Focus on either habitats or on a location in the landscape.Ĭontact Vivian Kvist Johannsen Are forest reserves saturated with nitrogen leading to nitrate leaching and soil acidification? You can go for one of these projects or use the list for inspiration to develop your own project!Ģ021 The list is ordered alphabetically according to project title Afforestation and deforestation, where and how?Īfforestation and deforestation in Denmark - where and how? Based on satellite & lidar mapping and field data from National Forest Inventory (NFI).
Below are ideas to projects and a selection of finalised theses from 2015-2020.
