What might current concepts and technologies for local supply look like? During hourly lab tours, we showcase digital applications, smart store technologies, and research approaches at the Local Supply Real-World Lab.
Every body emits thermal radiation, which we make visible using an infrared camera. This helps answer questions such as: “Am I a ‘cold nose’ or a ‘warm nose’?” or “Where can a mouse hide from a snake?”
Take a look at our interdisciplinary research projects, in which we use a variety of methods to study current and past natural and anthropogenic (human-induced) climate and environmental change.
