Members of the Ecology and Evolution Fagruppe will be heavily affected by the area reduction process planned over the coming year.

Examples of the ongoing work done by our group in these laboratories include: extraction of ancient pollen grains from sediments to reconstruct past vegetation communities; scanning, weighing and measuring of leaves to establish trait-environment relationships; isolation of parasites from bird nests to investigate host-parasite interactions; and metabarcoding of fungi from soils to better understand the relationships between soil biodiversity and ecosystem functioning.
