Day 2 of the #FERROannualmeeting
On Wednesday we stepped out of the meeting room and into the field.
Our journey took us to the Drรถda Reservoir, where we got an up-close look at the engineering and ecological thinking behind the water management. ๐ง๐ฟ
After a brief coffee pause, we gathered again to learn more about the "Excavation of nutrient-rich lake sediments and reuse as fertiliser in agriculture" - a presentation led by Olga Tammeorg
Our first day of #FERROanualmeeting continue with Kasper Reitzel and his presentation on "Removal of nutrients from lake water using a solar pump system and recycling on agricultural soils" ๐งช
After a short break in our Day 1 of #FERROannualmeeting, we are now focusing on "Using sonar and sediment analysis to target specific P-releasing areas in lakes", a presentation led by Theis Kragh
Our first day of FERRO's annual meeting continued with an interesting view on the Recovery of nutrients at lake inflows and reuse as fertiliser in agriculture. Presentation led by Luis Braune & our coordinator - Tallent Daddi.
๐๐คToday marks the start of the FERRO General Assembly meeting in Leipzig, Germany!
๏ฟฝ๏ฟฝOver the next three days, we will be discussing scientific progress ๐, sharing field experiences ๐งญ, and aligning on our vision for the future.
