ECOMARG - The effect of glyphosate and nitrogen on plant communities and the soil fauna in terrestrial biotopes at field margins

Project: Research

See relations at Aarhus University

Description

The aim of the project is to improve our understanding and be able to quantify and predict the effects of glyphosate and nitrogen and their interaction on small terrestrial biotopes in the agricultural landscape, e.g. hedgerows and field margins. For both vegetation and soil fauna, the effects will be assessed at the ecosystem level by measuring biodiversity and functional traits. A novel modelling approach will enable us to develop robust quantitative tools for predicting the effects on vegetation and soil fauna traits at the ecosystem level and the connected ecosystem properties and functions.
