Biodiversity of East-European and Siberian large mammals on the level of genetic variation of populations (BIOGEAST)
Start date: Sep 1, 2011, End date: Aug 31, 2016,
...ing a network of research centres in Central and Eastern Europe and Siberia, and apply the state-of-art knowledge in genetics and macroecology to: (1) investigate phylogeography of 7 species of large mammals (wolf, Eurasian lynx, brown bear, moose, red deer, roe deer, and wild boar); (2) identify the locations of LGM refugia for large mammals in Eastern and South-Eastern Europe and the routes of t ...

Research Potential in Conservation and Sustainable Management of Biodiversity (BIOCONSUS)
Start date: Dec 1, 2009, End date: May 31, 2014,
The project aims at developing research capacity of the major biodiversity research centre of the Podlasie Region - Mammal Research Institute Polish Academy of Sciences (MRI), EU’s Centre of Excellence (since 2002). The project will implement the MRI’s Action Plan for 2010-2012, prepared on the basis of SWOT analysis. The project foresees coherent set of measures, which will reinforce MRI’s potent ...

INTeracting effects of Abiotics and Carnivores shape herbivore Top-down effects (INTACT)
Start date: Sep 1, 2010, End date: Aug 31, 2013,
"Herbivore top-down effects and abiotic bottom-up effects are important in structuring forest systems. Recent studies showed that carnivores may shape indirectly herbivore effects. It is largely unknown how these factors interact in complete ecosystems. The project aims to understand how large canivores and abiotics shape herbivore top-down effects. The study area is one of the most complete fores ...

Invasive predator control: response of American mink to eradication in relation to farm distribution (MinkControl)
Start date: Apr 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2011,
The objective of this project is to develop empirically testable predictions that can advance both shared predation theory and its application to biological control. The introduction of alien species into some areas has had a devastating impact on native biodiversity as they cause fundamental changes in ecosystems. Often eradication is impossible; however, it is necessary to control alien species ...
