The Lower Oder Valley National Park is the twelth German National Park. Right from the beginning it was planned to be part of a German-Polish nature conservation project. This project embraces the whole lower Oder valley with a length of 60 kilometres from Hohensaaten (in Germany) to the gates of the town Szczecin (in Poland). The German part of the flood plain, which has many ox-bow lakes, varies between two and four kilometres in width. There are many valuable forests and blooming dry meadows on the valley slopes. This cultural and natural landscape is to be protected, developed, cultivated and organised, so that it can be fully experienced by its visitors. ... [Information of the supplier, modified]
The Müritz National Park (Total area: 322 km²) in Germany represents a typical part of the wood and lakeland district of Mecklenburg. There are 107 lakes more than an hectare in size in the National Park and many ponds within the forests. With an area of 117 m² the Müritz is the second largest lake in Germany. A 500 m wide and 10 km long section of the eastern bank is part of the National Park. 75% are pine woods, something very special are the woodlands in the area Serrahn, partly a nature reserve before the foundation of the National Park. The visitor will be able to admire an ancient woodland what it perhaps looked like before man the management of the forest. ... [Information of the supplier, modified]
The volunteer organization Sharkproject is fighting on the very frontlines against the destruction of the seas and the extermination of sharks. Founded in 2002 by twelve people committed to protection of the seas, today the organization is one of the most active and largest shark protection organizations worldwide. At present, it has some 200 associates active internationally. All of them work on a volunteer basis for the protection of marine animals and the marine ecosystem. ... [Information of the supplier]
A considerable number of interdisciplinary researches have been developed at the interface between hydrology and ecology during the last decade. The increasing number of peer-reviewed papers on the topic demonstrates the vitality of this theme. This interest in coupling hydrological and ecological studies has been triggered by purely scientific questions related to the quantification of the role of interactions between hydrological and biological processes on surface and groundwater resources and quality, but also by the importance of these physical and biological interactions at small, local and regional scales. These scales are of paramount importance for applied environmental issues related to air and water quality or biodiversity dynamics for instance. The aim of this fourth conference after the three last ones in Karlovy Vary (Carlsbad), Czech Republic in 2006, and in Vienna in Austria in 2009 and 2011, is fourfold: i) to present new findings and approaches on interactions between hydrology and ecology, ii) to promote interdisciplinary interactions on water related issues between hydrology, hydrogeology, biogeochemistry, microbial ecology and ecology, iii) to explore emerging patterns, breakthroughs and Challenges, and iv) to provide management applications and guidelines to tackle environmental issues. To address the relevant issues, the conference aims to bring together experts from different disciplines such as hydrologists (groundwater, surface water), ecologists, biologists, subsurface microbiologists, environmental biogeochemists, eco-technologists, geomorphologists, hydraulic engineers, forest managers, nature reserve managers, regional and landscape planners, as well as experts from governmental institutions. ...

The goal of the institute is the investigation of all areas relevant for actual research in marine sciences, ranging from Geology of the Ocean Floor to Marine Meteorology. The institute operates world-wide in all ocean basins. The main research topics are grouped in four areas: Ocean Circulation and Climate Dynamics, Marine Biogeochemistry, Marine Ecology, and Dynamics of the Ocean Floor. ... [Information of the supplier]
The Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority (GBRMPA) is the principal adviser to the Commonwealth Government on the care and development of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park. The Great Barrier Reef is undisputed as one of the world’s most important natural assets. It is the largest natural feature on earth stretching more than 2,300km along the northeast coast of Australia from the northern tip of Queensland to just north of Bundaberg. ...

The Baltic Marine Environment Bibliography covers bibliographic information on the Baltic Sea, i.e. all marine areas from the Gulfs of Finland and Bothnia in the east and north to the Belt Sea and Kattegat in the west. It contains references to reports including "grey literature", journal articles, books, conference proceedings, dissertations etc. The bibliography covers material from the year 1970, currently ca. 11 000 references. The Baltic Marine Environment Bibliography is produced under auspices of The Baltic Marine Environment Protection Commission (HELCOM, Helsinki Commission) from contributions prepared by the Baltic Sea states. The Information Service of the Technical Research Centre of Finland is responsible for compilation and processing of the bibliographic information as a consultant for the Helsinki Commission. ...
