Finished research projects:

dNmark Research Alliance (2013-2018) – addressed nitrogen related challenges from different perspectives. Peter was responsible for the research component 2 which focuses on landscape processes. As part of the research component workshops were hosted in six study areas in Denmark. Local stakeholders were invited to discuss future scenarios concerning nitrogen management at the landscape level. A GIS based model was developed during the project and it has since then been further developed by Andreas Aagaard Christensen.

Landscape Futures (2013-2017) – (Fremtidens Landskaber) –  focused on dialogue-based planning processes. Peter was coordinating the project Future Landscapes NordBornholm.
