All the facilities that we use regularly, from the palaeoecology labs on the 4th floor to the DNA and systematics labs on the 2nd floor, will be moved from A to B Block in Thormøhlensgate 53. 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.
