Training in sources, sinks and impacts of atmospheric nitrogen deposition in the Arctic (NSINK)
Start date: Nov 1, 2008, End date: Oct 31, 2012,
The NSINK Initial Stage Network training network targets one of the most vital, interdisciplinary problems facing future Arctic environmental management: namely the enrichment of Arctic terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems by reactive atmospheric nitrogen from low latitude emission centres. This problem will greatly exacerbate ecosystem response to climate change, and urgently requires holistic, sou ...

Shaping and Transformation in the Engineering of Polysaccharides (STEP)
Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Sep 30, 2012,
Naturally occurring polysaccharides constitute the largest segment of all available polymers, and hence exhibit the greatest potential as renewable, sustainable, and eco-friendly replacements for man-made polymers derived from fossil-resources. That this potential remains untapped to a large degree is testament to the inherent challenges in converting polysaccharides from natural sources to forms ...
