Abstract/Summary

-
IGB is the largest German and one of the leading interna-tional centres for freshwater research. Our vision is to under-stand aquatic systems in all their complexity and to use this research knowledge to support the sustainable management of water-based resources and ecosystems. We think: scientific findings gained through excellent research provide a basis for wise decisions. A better understanding of freshwaters and all their ecological aspects supports policy-makers and society in coping with global challenges and in managing and conserving water bodies for the benefit of people and nature. On the following pages we present selected research findings and activities from 2020. They are allocated to ten topics, each of which contains all kinds of interesting information that we have compiled for you. For each topic, you will find further in-formation, materials, experts as well as background informa-tion and the latest news on our website. We hope you enjoy reading and exploring!
