The ecological functioning of the Scheldt estuary: towards integration of research
The Scheldt Estuary is confronted with a loss of functionality, mostly if ecological functions are considere. The system capacity of purifying water is weakened. The ecological infrastructure is scattered. Flood waves gain strength. It is a scientific challenge to quantify to what degree tidal wetlands can support restoration of the ecological functioning of the estuary. It is illustrated that an integrated multidisciplinary approach is a satisfying strategy to obtain adequate system knowledge so that the complex role of wetlands can be understood. The results of OMES, an integrated research p... Mehr ...
