The geo-history of oil shale in Estonia
Guest Lecture: Riho Mötlep, Institute for Geology and Earth Science, University of Tartu
Zoom Link: https://dieangewandte-at.zoom.us/j/65584240536
Topics
- What is oil shale? Topography of extraction Waste/Environmental impact
Methodological Briefing
Mindaugas Gapševičius & Felix Bonowski, Bauhaus University Weimar
Topics
- soil experiments (chromatography)
- acoustic ecology (listening exercises; Instructions for Group Work (3- 5 people))
- measuring electric potentials in plants
Homework
Idea paper (1 page): What relational dynamics / transformations do you want to explore?
Follow Briefing on Google Drive.
Key Steps (in preparation of field week)
- Select an object, organism, specimen, people or places to study
- Conduct preparatory research based on course readings and online lectures
- Summarize your research interest/planned experiment in the research diary on your personal wiki page
- 5+ sentences background info,
- 10+ sentences description: main object/focus of fieldwork, research question, anticipated outcomes
- 5+ technical description: tools, method, process
- 5+ references
Due: by April 30th 2025 noon

NOTE: This project is only interesting for the way they work with radiation as a photographic device, not for the concept note of the project. Using x-ray film for capturing the afterlife of uranium extraction is interesting. It allowed to visualize the recalibration of elemental flows in contaminated soils that would otherwise be imperceptible.
