A team of researchers from this working group and students from course “Ecology and Diversity of Terrestrial Plants ” conducted a 5-day field excursion to Linde Research Station. At Linde, a new experiment set up by researchers from the Animal Ecology Group  (Head: Prof. Jana Eccard , PhD student Vera Kaunath ) investigates an alternative design for wildflower elements in agricultural fields and resulting insect biodiversity. For the same experimental units, our team has now collected data on plant cover & diversity as well as soil quality data. This research and the students’ participation in a genuine ecological data collection has been made possible and was kindly supported by Zwillenberg-Tietz Foundation.
