into practice, and it will focus on bridging natural and social
sciences. It will address sustainability topics such as loss of
biodiversity, human vulnerability to global change and water problems

to contribute to a better understanding of societal and natural

approaches. Impediments to inter- and transdisciplinary research
will be examined and new research concepts for sustainability identified.
