BIOMONDO Viewer

The main development effort for BIOMONDO is now finalized and three so called Earth System Science Pilots for freshwaters has been developed. These pilots focus on eutrophication, heat waves and river fragmentation and the products and results are described in public deliverables and visualized in the BIOMONDO viewer.

For access to the BIOMONDO viewer, please contact the Project Manager (see Key Contacts »).
