Each researcher sketched the basics of his or her work on the palm of their hand, making science tangible in the truest sense of the word! A photographic project which conveys the fascination of science in an unusually accessible way and offers a unique insight into the world of science, where men and women, independent of their origin and nationality, are driven by the same motivations: curiosity and the thirst for knowledge. THE AUTHOR Herlinde Koelbl studied fashion in Munich and only became a photographer in 1976. She has worked for well- draft cover known newspapers and magazines such as Stern, Die Zeit Photographer/Author: Herlinde Koelbl and New York Times. Her first broad success came with the publication of the photo book Das deutsche Wohnzimmer (The German Living Room) (1980), which was followed by other works. From 1991 to 1998, for her biggest project to date, a long-term study, she photographed and interviewed fifteen leading figures from the worlds of politics and business once a year, producing the photographic volume Spuren der Macht (Traces of Power) and an exhibition of the same name.

  • Indicators of Hemeroby for the Monitoring of Landscapes in Germany
    Indicators to monitor the structural diversity of landscapes Ulrich Walz Leibniz Institute of Ecological Urban and Regional Development, Weberplatz 1, 01217 Dresden, Germany Ecological Modelling 295 (2015) 88–106, http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.ecolmodel.2014.07.011 ABSTRACT An important level of biodiversity, alongside the diversity of genes and species, is the diversity of ecosystems and landscapes. In this contribution an indicator system is proposed to measure natural diversity (relief, soils, waters), cultural diversity (main land use classes, diversity of land use, ecotones, connectivity) and anthropogenic impacts (fragmentation, hemeroby, protection).The contribution gives an overview of various indicators on landscape diversity and heterogeneity currently used in Germany andEurope. Based on these indicators a complementary system, is presented. The indicators introduced here are derived from regular evaluations of the digital basis landscape model (BasicDLM) of the Authoritative Topographic-Cartographic Information System (ATKIS), the digital land cover model for Germany (LBM-DE) as well as other supplementary data such as the mapping of potential natural vegetation. With the proposed indicators it is possible to estimate cumulative land-use change and its impact on the environmental status and biodiversity, so that existing indicator systems are supplemented with meaningful additional information. Investigations have shown that indicators on forest fragmentation, hemeroby or ecotones can be derived from official geodata. As such geodata is regularly updated, trends in indicator values can be quickly identified. Large regional differences in the distribution of the proposed indicators have been confirmed, thereby revealing deficits and identifying those regions with a high potential for biodiversity. The indicators will be successively integrated into the web-based land-use monitor (http://www.ioer-monitor.de), which is freely available for public use.

  • Subduction Cycles Under Western North America During the Mesozoic and Cenozoic Eras
    .. Geological Society of America Special Paper 299 1995 Subduction cycles under western North America during the Mesozoic and Cenozoic eras Peter L. Ward U.S. Geological Survey, 345 Middlefield Road, MS 977, Menlo Park, California 94025 ABSTRACT An extensive review of geologic and tectonic features of western North America suggests that the interaction of oceanic plates with the continent follows a broad cycli- cal pattern. In a typical cycle, periods of rapid subduction (7-15 cdyr), andesitic vol- canism, and trench-normal contraction are followed by a shift to trench-normal extension, the onset of voluminous silicic volcanism, formation of large calderas, and the creation of major batholiths. Extension becomes pervasive in metamorphic core complexes, and there is a shift to fundamentally basaltic volcanism, formation of flood basalts, widespread rifting, rotation of terranes, and extensive circulation of flu- ids throughout the plate margin. Strike-slip faulting becomes widespread with the creation of new tectonostratigraphic terranes. A new subduction zone forms and the cycle repeats. Each cycle is 50-80 m.y. long; cycles since the Triassic have ended and begun at approximately 225, 152, 92, 44, and 15 Ma. The youngest two cycles are diachronous, one from Oregon to Alaska, the other from central Mexico to Califor- nia. The transitions from one cycle to the next cycle are characterized by rapid and pervasive changes termed, in this chapter, “major chaotic tectonic events.” These events appear to be related to the necking or breaking apart of the formerly sub- ducted slab at shallow depth, the resulting delamination of the plate margin, and the onset of a new subduction cycle.

(2013; Die Flechten Deutschlands) analysiert, wobei Naturräume die geografische Basis für die Analysen bilden. Bewertet werden Artendiversität, Exklusivität des Arteninventars, substratspezifische Eigenschaften (Substratbindung, pH-Werte und Nährstoffgehalt/Eutrophierung der besiedelten Substrate) und klimatische Faktoren (Licht, Luftfeuchte). Die artenreichs- ten Naturräume sind nach den Bayerischen Alpen, dem Schwarzwald und Odenwald-Spessart die ebenfalls sehr nieder- schlagsreichen Naturräume Eifel, Weserbergland, Harz, Fränkische Alb, Sauerland und Bayerisch-Böhmischer Wald. Die artenärmsten Landschaften liegen überwiegend im südlichen Teil des Nordostdeutschen Tieflandes. Die Exklusivität des Arteninventars eines Naturraumes wird als Anzahl der Arten, die in Deutschland nach 1950 nur in einem bis zwei Naturräumen nachgewiesen wurden, definiert. In der gesamten Bundesrepublik sind es 638 Arten, davon kommen die meisten in den Bayerischen Alpen, im Schwarzwald, Bayerischen Wald, Odenwald-Spessart und in der Schwäbischen Alb vor. Im gesamten Deutschland überwiegen die Gesteinsbewohner (47,6 % des Gesamtarteninventars),

  • Late Cretaceous to Paleogene Exhumation in Central Europe – Localized Inversion Vs

Late Cretaceous to Paleogene exhumation in Central Europe – localized inversion vs. large-scale domal uplift Hilmar von Eynatten1, Jonas Kley2, István Dunkl1, Veit-Enno Hoffmann1, Annemarie Simon1 1University of Göttingen, Geoscience Center, Department of Sedimentology and Environmental Geology, 5 Goldschmidtstrasse 3, 37077 Göttingen, Germany 2University of Göttingen, Geoscience Center, Department of Structural Geology and Geodynamics, Goldschmidtstrasse 3, 37077 Göttingen, Germany Correspondence to: Hilmar von Eynatten ([email protected]) Abstract. Large parts of Central Europe have experienced exhumation in Late Cretaceous to Paleogene time. Previous 10 studies mainly focused on thrusted basement uplifts to unravel magnitude, processes and timing of exhumation. This study provides, for the first time, a comprehensive thermochronological dataset from mostly Permo-Triassic strata exposed adjacent to and between the basement uplifts in central Germany, comprising an area of at least some 250-300 km across. Results of apatite fission track and (U-Th)/He analyses on >100 new samples reveal that (i) km-scale exhumation affected the entire region, (ii) thrusting of basement blocks like the Harz Mountains and the Thuringian Forest focused in the Late 15 Cretaceous (about 90-70 Ma) while superimposed domal uplift of central Germany is slightly younger (about 75-55 Ma), and (iii) large parts of the domal uplift experienced removal of 3 to 4 km of Mesozoic strata. Using spatial extent, magnitude and timing as constraints suggests that thrusting and crustal thickening alone can account for no more than half of the domal uplift.

The conclusions and viewpoints presented in the report are those of the author and do not necessarily coincide with those of the client. A pdf version of this document can be downloaded from www.skb.se Abstract The c. 1.80 Ga old bedrock in the Laxemar-Simpevarp area, which is the focus of the site investigation at Oskarshamn, is dominated by intrusive rocks belonging to the c. 1.86–1.65 Ga Transscandinavian Igneous Belt (TIB). However, the site investigation area is situated in between two c. 1.45 Ga old anorogenic granites, the Götemar granite in the north and the Uthammar granite in the south. This study evaluates the emplacement mechanism of these intrusions and their structural influence on the older bedrock.

  • Eastern Bavaria
    Basic text Eastern Bavaria Culture Eastern Bavaria is still home to more castles than anywhere else in Germany: Some medieval castles remain only as ruins, whilst other castles such as Falkenstein Castle have withstood decline and are open to visitors. The expansive spruce forests in Eastern Bavaria have given way to the Bavarian Glass Road, as they supplied the wood and quartz sand –the key raw materials – for the very first glass foundries. Spanning some 250 kilometres, it is one of the most picturesque holiday routes in Germany. Those choosing to travel along the route will learn all about the 700-year tradition of glass production and glass as a form of art. The route, which begins in Neustadt an der Waldnaab and leads to Passau, features glass foundries, galleries and museums, all packed to the brim with interesting facts about the traditional handicraft. Some Eastern Bavarian companies are keeping the tradition alive to this day and export to countries ranging from the United Arab Emirates to the United States of America. The largest towns in Eastern Bavaria include Regensburg, Landshut and Passau. The city of Regensburg, which was first founded by Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius, has retained its medieval centre to this day. The Old Town of Regensburg together with Stadtamhof has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2006. Landshut is the prototype of an old Bavarian town. Above all its town centre, which features gabled houses, decorative façades, oriels and arches, is one of the most beautiful squares to be found in the whole of Germany. The three-river town of Passau, which was built in the Italian baroque style, achieved early wealth thanks to its participation in the salt trade and was a place of border crossings due to its location on the border with Austria and just 30 kilometres from the Czech border.
