Fatty acids in mountain stream food webs

Are fatty acids the key to climate change in alpine streams?

SURVIVALFAT - Survival of the fattest? Unraveling the importance of lipids and fatt acids for alpine stream ecosystems during climate change?

Overview

This granted research project led by Georg H. Niedrist aims to quantify the availability and production of nutritious fatty acids in alpine stream food webs, to identify effects on higher trophic levels, and to predict climate-change effects (deglaciation and warming) on the overall nutritional quality of this type of headwaters.
