Alexander von Humboldt almost brings the ocean to Erlangen
In this year´s 250th birthday celebration the Alexander von Humboldt foundation financed two acclaimed researchers to work for six months at the Chair of Applied Geology / GeoZentrum Nordbayern, Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg. Profs. Walter Daesslé-Heuser from Mexico and Rohana Chandrajith from Sri Lanka are both working on coastal groundwater systems. This topic gains increasing importance because […]In this year´s 250th birthday celebration the Alexander von Humboldt foundation financed two acclaimed researchers to work for six months at the Chair of Applied Geology / GeoZentrum Nordbayern, Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg.

Niklas Hohmann – “Enforced symmetry: the necessity of symmetric waxing and waning”, PeerJ
Scientists have assumed that species display a life cycle which is similar to the the life of humans, being divided into puberty, maturity, and old age. Paleobiology student Niklas Hohmann and Dr. Emilia Jarochowska showed in their recent publication that these life cycles are mathematical relics and do not carry a specific ecological meaning. They […]
