Abstract

We carried out visual and parametric searches for dwarf galaxies in five loose groups of galaxies. Follow‐up spectroscopy with the HET has shown a 50% success rate of morphological selection. The evolutionary status of the studied groups differs: while the NGC 6962 group has a partially relaxed core, surrounded by an infall region, the NGC 5005/5033 group and the IC 65 group, which consist only of late‐type galaxies, are probably still assembling (Β© 2009 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

## Abstract The study of (dwarf) galaxies in nearby groups is one among the most powerful tools that can be used to investigate galaxy evolution, chemical enrichment and environmental effects on these objects.

## Abstract We examine multiple facets of the evolution of the gas content of galaxy groups. Complementing building evidence that a tremendous amount of galaxy transformation takes place in the group environment we find evidence of similar transformation of the gas content.

## Abstract We study the effects of clouds on the dynamical and chemical evolution of gas‐rich dwarf galaxies, in particular focusing on two model galaxies similar to IZw18 and NGC 1569. We consider both scenarios, clouds put at the beginning of the simulation and continuously created infalling one
