Effects of amendments and plant rhizosphere processes on the migration and transformation of heavy metals in soil in frame of phytoremediation Ghent University
Through different experiments, contaminated soil will be fractionated into aggregates of different particle size to explore the influence of amendments and rhizosphere processes on the migration and transformation of trace elements, and to reveal the activation/immobilization mechanisms of trace elements under the participation of plants, so as to provide theoretical scientific basis for the stability of trace elements under ...
Effects of intrinsic factors and habitat fragmentation on the migration behaviour of diadromous fish Ghent University
Animal migration is a widespread phenomenon. It evolved to maximize survival and reproductive success by stimulating the movement between critical habitats such as reproductive and feeding grounds. Diadromous fish species show extensive migrations, in which they bridge vast distances between foraging and spawning habitats in freshwater and marine environments. Behavioral traits like migration speed and timing likely evolved to reach critical ...

Researching returnees’ political reintegration in the framework of Objective 21 of the Global Compact for Migration. Ghent University
This study will shed light on the political reintegration of returning migrants in The Gambia in the light of the reintegration assistance which will be provided to returnees pursuant to the implementation of Objective 21 of the UN’s Global Compact for Migration. In so doing, it will bridge the theoretical and
policy gap relating to the political dimension of return migration.

Investigating water and climate-related conflicts and migration towards engagement and equity focused solutions for adaptation, human security and policy integration in Africa. Ghent University
The project aims to enhance our knowledge on water- and climate-related conflicts and migration in some of the most vulnerable countries in Africa: Democratic Republic of Congo, Rwanda and Senegal. Using a comparative context approach, it will propose engagement and equity-oriented
solutions to outline a policy and decision framework for regional integration of migration and human development in these regions.
