The FAST-CAST 2 project aims to make a decisive contribution to route planning. Flame-retardants and plasticizers found in the oceans Hereon published a new study considering the transport of harmful substances and their prevalence in the marine environment Peatlands in Indonesia: Has rising sea level led to more forest fires? Researchers have now shown how peatland in the coastal areas in Sumatra and Borneo developed over thousands of years and how climate and sea level influenced their dynamics throughout.
