DFG Research Unit 918:
|
The consortium consists of eight subprojects proposed by working groups, which are located at five universities and two research centres. All participating subprojects contribute to the common objective to describe the flow of plant derived carbon through belowground food webs quantitatively. For details on groups and specific aims of subprojects see the following links:
