Phase I Projects 2013 - 2016
The URPP GCB establish this research agenda through eight interdisciplinary projects in Phase I.
Their uniting link is the analytical framing of the three mechanisms of change, i.e. interactions (e.g., biodiversity and ecosystem functioning relationships as well as human-environment interactions), feedbacks, and scaling. Within this framework, each individual sub-project focuses predominantly, but not exclusively on one of the three mechanisms of change.
