This thesis investigates the successional development of biocrust and shifts in their
phototrophic community along dune chronosequences. The study revealed that thin microalgae-biocrusts
dominated younger dunes. On more stabilized dunes, macrophytic cryptogams were found.
The input of organic biomass into the dunes allows for further soil development. Observed
soil-forming processes confirm parent material transformation through mineral weathering,
including shifts in the phosphorus pools. Biocrusts have the potential to influence
the physicochemical conditions of their surrounding habitat.

Diese Arbeit untersucht die sukzessive Entwicklung von Biokrusten und ihrer phototrophen
Gemeinschaft entlang von Dünen-Chronosequenzen. In jüngeren Dünen dominieren dünne
Mikroalgen-Biokrusten. Auf stabileren Dünen wurden makrophytische Kryptogamen gefunden.
Einträge organischer Biomasse in die Dünen ermöglicht eine Bodenentwicklung. Die bodenbildenden
Prozesse bestätigen die Umwandlung des Ausgangsmaterials durch mineralische Verwitterung,
einschließlich Verschiebungen in den Phosphorpools. Biokrusten können die (a)biotischen
Bedingungen des sie umgebenden Lebensraums beeinflussen.
