Zusammenfassung Die an der Schleuse Brandenburg vorherrschenden Potenzialunterschiede führen zu einer permanenten Infiltration von Oberflächenwasser aus dem oberen Vorhafen des Bauwerks in den oberflächennahen Grundwasserleiter, vergleichbar mit den Verhältnissen bei einer Uferfiltration. Durch die geringen Fließgeschwindigkeiten im Oberwasser kommt es zu Ablagerungen von Feinsedimenten, die lokal zu Kolmationshorizonten führe...

Beauveria brongniartii is a fungal pathogen that infects the beetle Melolontha melolontha , a significant agricultural pest in Europe. While research has primarily focused on the use of B. brongniartii for controlling M. melolontha , the genomic structure of the B. brongniartii population remains unknown. This includes whether its structure is influenced by its interaction with M. melolontha , the timing of beetle‐swarming fli...

The volatile organic compounds (VOCs) 1-octen-3-ol and 3-octanone produced by the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium brunneum are known to have pesticidal properties at high doses against a range of invertebrate pests. Very little is known about their behavior-modifying (semiochemical) properties. This study focused on investigating the behavioral responses of three subterranean crop pests, wireworm ( Agriotes lineatus ) , we...

Bank filtration (BF) is an established indirect water-treatment technology. The quality of water gained via BF depends on the subsurface capture zone, the mixing ratio (river water versus ambient groundwater), spatial and temporal distribution of subsurface travel times, and subsurface temperature patterns. Surface-water infiltration into the adjacent aquifer is determined by the local hydraulic gradient and riverbed permeabil...
