Infrastructure and methods

Methods

Nutrient and organic carbon determination in water and sediments, including sediment and soil extractions
DOM spectroscopic analyses (absorbance, fluorescence)
Phytoplankton and benthic algae identification
Pulse-amplitude-modulation fluorometry (e.g. PHYTO-PAM)
Environmental DNA (eDNA) and genetic sampling
Fish sampling (electrofishing, bottom trawl, longline)
Various catchment, floodplain, and stream models for connectivity, trophic states, matter retention, and habitat availability
Assessments of ecosystem functions, services, and multi-functionality of rivers and floodplains
