Nominator's project description

Professor Beisner is a leading aquatic ecologist and well known for her innovative, multidisciplinary contributions to fields such as freshwater ecology and biodiversity, food web functioning, dynamics and stability. She has established experimental approaches to assess effects of global change and anthropogenic activities on freshwater ecosystems. In Germany, Professor Beisner focuses on mesocosm experiments in lakes to test for interactions between physics and aquatic food webs. This will provide an important basis for improved understanding and management of freshwater resources.
