Theses
During the past years, several studies have been conducted within the Rhine-Main-Observatory for a variety of different taxonomic groups, amongst others including:
- Riparian plants
- Carabid beetles
- Epigeic spiders
- Snails
- Macroinvertebrates
- Fungi
Further research focused on eco-hydrological modeling and evaluating the relationship of ecological quality and stream morphology.
