Symposium 10 Jahre Hühnerwasser

Celebrating the 10th anniversary of the Hühnerwasser catchment in September 2015 the Symposium “Observing ecosystem transition – 10 years Hühnerwasser / Chicken Creek catchment” provides a good opportunity to discuss concepts and models of ecosystem state transitions as well as on importance and potentials of landscape or critical zone observatories. During this symposium outstanding keynote speakers will present ideas from very different perspectives.

The symposium will be completed by selective papers dealing with highlights from the ongoing research in the Hühnerwasser landscape observatory. The very dynamic development of this very young system makes ecosystem transitions clearly visible within a very short period of time. Thus, a number of different developmental phases could be distinguished until now with regard to geomorphological, hydrological as well as biological patterns and processe
