Steering Committee

A. Brinker, FFS-LAZBW | M. Möst, U Innsbruck (UI) | K.-O. Rothhaupt, U Konstanz (UK) | K. Schmieder, U Hohenheim (UH) | T. Posch, U Zürich (UZH) | NN (Practice Representative) | PL & SPL

In this body, all of the 7 SeeWandel research institutions and the practice are represented. The members represent SeeWandel within their institutions and support the project leader, particularly within the scope of their field of expertise. The steering committee has the overall responsibility for all scientific, financial and management issues, as well as any activities and concerns related to communication, external presentation of the project and knowledge transfer. All project-relevant decisions are made in this body. Furthermore, the team is responsible for synthesis and knowledge transfer of the project results, especially for topics that cannot be addressed within the thematic working groups.

SeeWandel Project Synthesis Group (S14) Steering Committee, PC, Experts

The synthesis group coordinates the project synthesis, producing targeted products tailored to specific audiences. Depending on the area of specialisation of the project synthesis, external experts will be consulted. The project leader, supported by the practice representative, acts as a link between the expert committee of the IGKB and IBKF, the respective practice representatives in the thematic working groups and the steering committee. This ensures continuous exchange and knowledge transfer between practice and science 

 

4 Thematic Working Groups

Thematic working groups (TG) facilitate scientific discussions and interactions within and beyond SeeWandel as well as with other external scientists, and foster exchange and knowledge transfer between science and practice with specific focus on the development of Lake Constance. Discussions and work performed within the framework of the four TG are fundamental for project synthesis and the transfer of knowledge. Inviting external experts strengthens the interdisciplinary research network. The practice representatives in the TG are familiar with the Lake Constance region and form the interface between science and practice / authorities / commissions, and contribute to their active networking.
