Citizen Science “for our environment”
The Federal Environment Agency examined the costs and benefits of Citizen Science in research projects. The Museum für Naturkunde Berlin provided input.

The leaves of the Cretaceous
For a long time only comparatively few representatives of monocotyledonous plants from the Cretaceous period were known. A cabinet in Berlin contained new evidence of the earlier diversity.

Searching for rainforests in Gondwana
Fossils of typical rainforest plants are older than they are supposed to be according to the theory of the emergence of modern tropical rainforests. A researcher from the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin traces back their origin.

The barnacles of Eastern Indonesia
About 120 years ago, zoologists from the Netherlands investigated barnacles of Eastern Indonesian islands. A researcher from the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin follows their tracks.

Without legs through the ground
Not much was known so far about the still little researched amphisbaenians. Researchers at the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin get to the bottom of their development history.

Selection at work
Adaptation to a new environment can quickly re-shape entire populations. Researchers at the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin are investigating what traces this leaves in the genome.

Arms Races and trench warfare between host and parasite
Genetic warfare: In their continuous conflict and coevolution, parasites and their host organisms go through phases that leave traces in their genomes.

Development of the sound repertoire of a babbling bat
Bats are known for their ability to locate prey with calls, not so much for complex songs. Field observations show how juveniles learn to vocalize.

Dicraeosaurus: The story of “M” and “m”
Palaeontologists discovered Dicraeosaurus over 100 years ago, but questions about these sauropod dinosaurs remain. Researchers at the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin investigate the most complete skeleton find

Fossil search in the Atbara Valley
The Atbara River in eastern Sudan has created a landscape in which fossil search is particularly productive. Researchers from the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin also find early humans' tools.

How Synapsids took the land
In trees, on the water or underground - many ways of life of today's mammals were developed long before them, when the first vertebrates claimed land habitat.

MEMIN Sub-Project: Projectile-target interaction, melting and vaporization in hypervelocity experiments and natural impactites
In the multidisciplinary MEMIN network, researchers investigate natural craters and conduct experimental laboratory studies and numerical simulations to study impacts of cosmic bodies on Earth.

MEMIN Sub-Project: Microscale shock processes in sandstone
Impact craters of cosmic bodies on Earth are sometimes difficult to distinguish from other structures. Experiments show how they can be reliably detected.

MEMIN Sub-Project: Numerical Modeling of Impact Cratering Processes
Craters testify to past impacts of cosmic bodies on Earth. How they form is investigated with computer simulations, dry foam and one of the largest cannons in the world.

Online documentation of the model project "Art/Nature" (2014-18)
Over a period of four years, the international model project "Art/Nature. Artistic Interventions at the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin" opened an experimental space for the interactions between contemporary art, museum practice and natural history research.

Berlin collects cosmic dust
Largely unnoticed, a constant rain of cosmic particles falls on Berlin. The Museum für Naturkunde Berlin seeks citizen support to recover the cosmic treasures.
