Adaptive responses of an aquatic vertebrate to chemical pollution KU Leuven
Human-induced pollution features among the greatest challenges that organisms face for survival and adaptation. Aquatic ecosystems have been exposed worldwide to varying degrees of pollution, and the fitness of their communities and populations has been affected to such extent that biodiversity is compromised. We evaluate the potential adaptive response of three-spined stickleback, a model fish, to pollution after multigenerational exposure ...

Environmental magnetism for air pollution monitoring in Flanders Ghent University
This proposal aims to investigate the application potential of environmental magnetism for air
pollution monitoring in Flanders (BE). While soils accumulate atmospheric particles over long
timespans, vegetation only captures particles within a growing season. Together they respectively
represent sub-recent and recent impact of air pollution.
First, a standardized protocol will be developed to accurately record the ...
