Photo gallery: Research at the AWI Sylt

Since more than 100 years scientists have been investigating the Wadden Sea around Sylt. That is why, the new building of the AWI Sylt could have never been the first research base at Sylt - however, it definitely is the most modern one. This photo gallery shows the research base and gives some impressions, what working at the AWI Sylt looks like.
