These trends are already detectable over the historic period. Hence, it is beneficial to forecast seasonal droughts well in advance so that water managers and stakeholders can prepare to mitigate deleterious impacts. We developed a new cluster-based empirical forecast method to predict precipitation anomalies in winter. This algorithm considers not only the strength but also the pattern of the precursors. We compare our algorithm with dynamic forecast models and a canonical correlation analysis-based prediction method demonstrating that our prediction method performs better in terms of time and pattern correlation in the Mediterranean and European regions.}, language = {en} } @article{SchraderPfeifferReutheretal.1997, author = {Schrader, Sigurd and Pfeiffer, Karl and Reuther, Freimut and Lorkowski, Hans-Joachim}, title = {Stable polymer chromophore systems for nonlinear optics}, year = {1997}, language = {en} } @article{FischerBossdorfGockeletal.2010, author = {Fischer, Markus and Bossdorf, Oliver and Gockel, Sonja and Haensel, Falk and Hemp, Andreas and Hessenmoeller, Dominik and Korte, Gunnar and Nieschulze, Jens and Pfeiffer, Simone and Prati, Daniel and Renner, Swen and Schoening, Ingo and Schumacher, Uta and Wells, Konstans and Buscot, Francois and Kalko, Elisabeth K.

However, their individual functions and interactions with higher taxa in soil are still unknown. Here, potential effects of land use, soil properties, plant diversity, and soil nanofauna on acidobacterial community composition were studied by cultivation-independent methods in grassland and forest soils from three different regions in Germany. The analysis of 16S rRNA gene clone libraries representing all studied soils revealed that grassland soils were dominated by subgroup Gp6 and forest soils by subgroup Gp1 Acidobacteria. The analysis of a large number of sites (n = 57) by 16S rRNA gene fingerprinting methods (terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism [T-RFLP] and denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis [DGGE]) showed that Acidobacteria diversities differed between grassland and forest soils but also among the three different regions. Edaphic properties, such as pH, organic carbon, total nitrogen, C/N ratio, phosphorus, nitrate, ammonium, soil moisture, soil temperature, and soil respiration, had an impact on community composition as assessed by fingerprinting. However, interrelations with environmental parameters among subgroup terminal restriction fragments (T-RFs) differed significantly, e.g., different Gp1 T-RFs correlated positively or negatively with nitrogen content. Novel significant correlations of Acidobacteria subpopulations (i.e., individual populations within subgroups) with soil nanofauna and vascular plant diversity were revealed only by analysis of clone sequences. Thus, for detecting novel interrelations of environmental parameters with Acidobacteria, individual populations within subgroups have to be considered.}, language = {en} } @article{DaeublerCimrovaPfeifferetal.1999, author = {D{\"a}ubler, Thomas Karl and Cimrova, V. and Pfeiffer, S. and H{\"o}rhold, Hans-Heinrich and Neher, Dieter}, title = {Field and wavelength dependence of charge carrier photogeneration in soluble PPV derivatives}, year = {1999}, language = {en} } @article{DaeublerPfeifferHoerholdetal.1999, author = {D{\"a}ubler, Thomas Karl and Pfeiffer, S. and H{\"o}rhold, Hans-Heinrich and Neher, Dieter}, title = {Photogeneration of charge carriers in segmented arylamino-PPV derivatives}, year = {1999}, language = {en} } @article{MantzoukiLurlingFastneretal.2018, author = {Mantzouki, Evanthia and Lurling, Miquel and Fastner, Jutta and Domis, Lisette Nicole de Senerpont and Wilk-Wozniak, Elzbieta and Koreiviene, Judita and Seelen, Laura and Teurlincx, Sven and Verstijnen, Yvon and Krzton, Wojciech and Walusiak, Edward and Karosiene, Jurate and Kasperoviciene, Jurate and Savadova, Ksenija and Vitonyte, Irma and Cillero-Castro, Carmen and Budzynska, Agnieszka and Goldyn, Ryszard and Kozak, Anna and Rosinska, Joanna and Szelag-Wasielewska, Elzbieta and Domek, Piotr and Jakubowska-Krepska, Natalia and Kwasizur, Kinga and Messyasz, Beata and Pelechata, Aleksandra and Pelechaty, Mariusz and Kokocinski, Mikolaj and Garcia-Murcia, Ana and Real, Monserrat and Romans, Elvira and Noguero-Ribes, Jordi and Parreno Duque, David and Fernandez-Moran, Elisabeth and Karakaya, Nusret and Haggqvist, Kerstin and Demir, Nilsun and Beklioglu, Meryem and Filiz, Nur and Levi, Eti E. and Iskin, Ugur and Bezirci, Gizem and Tavsanoglu, Ulku Nihan and Ozhan, Koray and Gkelis, Spyros and Panou, Manthos and Fakioglu, Ozden and Avagianos, Christos and Kaloudis, Triantafyllos and Celik, Kemal and Yilmaz, Mete and Marce, Rafael and Catalan, Nuria and Bravo, Andrea G. and Buck, Moritz and Colom-Montero, William and Mustonen, Kristiina and Pierson, Don and Yang, Yang and Raposeiro, Pedro M. and Goncalves, Vitor and Antoniou, Maria G. and Tsiarta, Nikoletta and McCarthy, Valerie and Perello, Victor C. and Feldmann, Tonu and Laas, Alo and Panksep, Kristel and Tuvikene, Lea and Gagala, Ilona and Mankiewicz-Boczek, Joana and Yagci, Meral Apaydin and Cinar, Sakir and Capkin, Kadir and Yagci, Abdulkadir and Cesur, Mehmet and Bilgin, Fuat and Bulut, Cafer and Uysal, Rahmi and Obertegger, Ulrike and Boscaini, Adriano and Flaim, Giovanna and Salmaso, Nico and Cerasino, Leonardo and Richardson, Jessica and Visser, Petra M. and Verspagen, Jolanda M.

Additionally, responses to land use can differ greatly among different organisms; therefore, overall effects of land-use on total local biodiversity are hardly known. To test for effects of LUI (quantified as the combined intensity of fertilization, grazing, and mowing) and interannual variation in LUI (SD in LUI across time), we introduce a unique measure of whole-ecosystem biodiversity, multidiversity. This synthesizes individual diversity measures across up to 49 taxonomic groups of plants, animals, fungi, and bacteria from 150 grasslands. Multidiversity declined with increasing LUI among grasslands, particularly for rarer species and aboveground organisms, whereas common species and belowground groups were less sensitive. However, a high level of interannual variation in LUI increased overall multidiversity at low LUI and was even more beneficial for rarer species because it slowed the rate at which the multidiversity of rare species declined with increasing LUI. In more intensively managed grasslands, the diversity of rarer species was, on average, 18\% of the maximum diversity across all grasslands when LUI was static over time but increased to 31\% of the maximum when LUI changed maximally over time. In addition to decreasing overall LUI, we suggest varying LUI across years as a complementary strategy to promote biodiversity conservation.}, language = {en} }
