@schubertBA Where is that beautiful piece of wood from?

Check out the original announcement for the launching of our CLIPT lab video series. It was a fun and timely project that we began when we had to shutdown in April. We hope you enjoy them!

One of our favorite places just outside of Oslo--Sognsvann! Need a break? Hop on the light rail and in a few minutes you are surrounded by woods and lakes...

Meanwhile...back at the UiO Phytron, all systems are operational (this is actually a vintage photo of the original greenhouse environmental controls ca. 1970's!)

Another image of Paleocene/Eocene age permineralized wood. Image taken with a DSLR and image stacked using ZereneStacker. Still learning how to use it.

[CLIPT Lab @JahrenLab]

Check out this photo of permineralized Eocene age (~45 million years old!) wood from Svalbard, Norway. We dissolved away the calcium carbonate with 1 M HCl to reveal nicely preserved intact organic cell structure! (from the UiO Natural History Museum collection)
