Sonata

Pollination ecology workshop
2025-10-31 10:00 - 12:00 (Europe/Belgrade) | Online
SONATA investigates how restoring seminatural grasslands can be a nature-based solution for increasing farmland biodiversity and including the abundance of insect pollinators, pollination services to crops, and thereby crop production. In this workshop guest lecturer Professor Ørjan Totland from the University of Bergen will set the stage by introducing us to the field of pollination ecology. The lecture will be followed by a hands-on exercise on the analysis of effects of pollinator abundance on crop pollination. Aim of the workshop is to familiarise participants with the field of pollination ecology and gain hands on experience from analyzing data on pollen limitation. The workshop ensures that SONATA NbS modelling is grounded not only in spatial patterns but also in ecosystem process dynamics and ecosystem service delivery.
