Paleo-ecology -Poster and earthlayers with spade

Henry zegt hierover: "- We zien een milde fase uit het Pleniglaciaal (32.000 jaar geleden),
- een landschap gedomineerd door riviertransport (29.000 jaar geleden),
- een landschap gedomineerd door windtransport (26.000-14.000 jaar geleden),
- de koudste fase van de laatste ijstijd (20.000 jaar geleden),
- effecten van de eerste opwarming na de laatste ijstijd (14.000-12.000 jaar geleden),
- een terugval naar bijna-ijstijdcondities in de Jonge Dryas periode (12.000-11.000 jaar geleden), - de start van onze huidige warme periode van het Holoceen met belangrijke bodemvorming;
- effecten van de beschadiging van het Middeleeuwse landschap door de mens waardoor stuifduinen ontstaan. Cleaned up soil profile in the shore of river Dinkel, with different earth layers, spade and a poster that shows the glacial cycles and climates from which the different earth layers originate.
River Dinkel and Dinkel Valley, nature reserve Lutterzand in De Lutte, the Netherlands - Province Twente. The River Dinkel streams between the moraine of Ootmarsum and the moraine of Oldenzaal. It's an active, freely meandering river. Sediments that in the past 130.000 years were deposited by wind and rivers are broached again and deported by the Dinkel. In the Lutterzand Nature reserve, the Dinkel has cut in deeply in its own sediments, revealing several historic earth layers in its shores.
