  • Designing a concept for the cumulative assessment of anthropogenic stress
    Led by: Claus-Dieter Dürselen (AquaEcology GmbH)
    Team: Benjamin Burkhard
    Year: 2012
    Funding: UBA UFOPLAN
    Duration: 08.2012 - 02.2014
  • Establishing indicators for evaluating and managing natural heritage sites of the DBU
    Led by: Stefan Klotz (UFZ Halle)
    Team: Benjamin Burkhard
    Year: 2011
    Funding: Deutsche Bundesstiftung Umwelt (DBU) (German Federal Environmental Foundation)
    Duration: 04.2011 - 12.2012
  • Soil erosion monitoring in Baden-Wurttemberg
    This project is monitoring the extent and frequency of soil erosion through water in an area of about 200 hectares since the year 2011. The aim is to obtain long-term empirically secured data on soil erosion due to water under different site and cultivation conditions.
    Led by: Bastian Steinhoff-Knopp
    Year: 2011
    Funding: Landesanstalt für Umwelt, Messungen und Naturschutz Baden-Württemberg (LUBW)
    Duration: since 2011
  • Mapping potential soil erosion in the Canton Basel-Landschaft (Switzerland)
    A digital map of the erosion risk (potential soil erosion) of crop rotation areas in the canton Basel-Landschaft was generated. This map is used to advise farmers, shows the different levels of erosion and also identifies areas where fine soil could reach water bodies.
    Led by: Thomas Mosimann
    Team: Jan Bug
    Year: 2009
    Funding: Canton Basel-Landschaft
    Duration: 2009 - 2010
  • Zukunft Küste - Coastal Futures
    Coastal Futures deals with questions of a sustainable and Integrated Coastal Zone Management (ICZM) at the western coast of Schleswig-Holstein. The individual subprojects are focused on the integrated analysis of the interactions between various types of coastal use as well as the interactions between human activities and the coastal ecosystem. Coastal Futures describes a joint research project supported by national and international scientific institutes, national authorities, the State Ministries of Schleswig-Holstein as well as regional and transnational institutions.
    Led by: Andreas Kannen (HZG Geesthacht)
    Team: Benjamin Burkhard
    Year: 2004
    Funding: Federal Ministry of Education and Research
    Duration: 06.2004 - 04.2010
  • Long-term soil erosion monitoring in Lower Saxony, Germany
    This long-term project is monitoring the extent and frequency of soil erosion through water in an area of 450 hectares since the year 2000. The aim is to obtain long-term empirically secured data on soil erosion due to water under different site and cultivation conditions.
    Led by: Bastian Steinhoff-Knopp
    Year: 2000
    Funding: Landesamt für Bergbau, Energie und Geologie Niedersachsen (LBEG)
    Duration: since 2000
