Last year, I followed the young researchers during their fieldwork in Thorsminde, where they worked with measuring equipment, water samples and data logging by the fjord. At the time, the project was still ongoing. Now, the results hav

At Bovbjerg Klint, researchers have now taken a look beneath the surface. Researchers from the HydroGeophysics Group at Aarhus University, in collaboration with the Central Denmark Region, have investigated the subsurface using modern geophysical measurements. The studies provide new knowledge about one of the geop
