Another topic will be the development of the necessary [...] feed on other crustaceans as well. In addition to the growth rate of the animals, we also focus on the digestibility of the feed. The prototype of the trap has been in Belgium since 2019 (Photo: Alfre [...] Successful control of invasive mitten crabs with an innovative trap concept The mitten crab is on the IUCN's list of the world's 100 most dangerous invasive species. In Germany, the crab is found in large

In many regions of the Arctic, the melting sea ice will likely result in higher productivity among the ice algae in the short term. Yet

The goal is to achieve

In the Northern Hemisphere, the ocean gradually freezes over in the course of the long Polar [...] near the end of winter. At this point, the Arctic Ocean is completely covered in ice from between the coasts of Canada, Alaska and Siberia to the eastern coast of Greenland. When the sun returns, the ice [...] the formation and melting of sea ice affect the atmosphere and the ocean, and with them, the climate, in a variety of ways. The ice reflects the majority of incoming sunlight back into space. In contrast
