European joint programme HBM4EU - Bridging science and policy: experiences and lessons learned from the key partners in the scientific steering of the initiative

The European Joint Programme HBM4EU was established to address politically relevant questions on chemical risks to public health through a targeted human biomonitoring research programme. Running from 2017 to 2022, it was co-financed by the EU's Horizon 2020 Research and Innovati...

The WoKaS-Iso database: workflow for a global compilation of oxygen-18 and deuterium records in karst springs and cave drip water for enhanced understanding of karst systems

For analysing karst hydrogeological systems, observations of karst springs and cave drips are considered indispensable. In addition to hydrometric observations, knowing the oxygen and hydrogen stable isotope ratios has improved the understanding of vadose zone and aquifer dynamic...

Linking NDVI and Leaf Senescence in High Arctic Tundra Plants: Soil Moisture Control on Senescence Phenology Revealed by Direct Observations and NDVI Sensors

A comprehensive understanding of the drivers of tundra plant senescence phenology and climate-related changes in senescence timing across tundra landscapes is currently lacking. Near-surface remote sensing (NRS) holds the potential to bridge this gap by overcoming problems common...

Contrasting population genetic structures of freshwater eels ( Anguilla marmorata, A. bicolor, A. mossambica ) from Madagascar

Abstract Freshwater eels (genus Anguilla ) are of major biological and commercial interest due to their complex catadromous life cycle and as a high‐value fishery resource, but the biology of tropical species is still poorly understood. This study investigates the genetic integri...
