Wanderausstellung UmWeltWandel

Umweltveränderungen in der Vergangenheit

Ab September präsentiert die UmWeltWandel-Forschungsgruppe im Foyer der Botanik eine Ausstellung über Umweltarchäologie in Oman. Neben Postern werden auch Werkzeuge gezeigt, die bei den Feldarbeiten und im Labor zum Einsatz kamen. Außerdem können die Besucher:innen selbst aktiv werden und unter Mikroskopen Blütenpollen und Dünnschliffe von Holz anschauen.
