Yesterday's Collections as Potentials for the Future

The research of material cultural objects holds an infinite variety of questions issues/topics that often arise in the course of dealing with objects. Provenance, production context, acquisition and use contexts of objects offer entry points into understanding past cultural practices. This lecture will focus on the conditions that must be fulfilled in order to be able to study collections in the first place. Using "accessibility" and "usability" as guiding concepts, the expectations and demands on collections by current researchers will also be addressed.

"The Vienna Urban Carbon Laboratory and the Munich Urban Carbon Column network"

The Vienna Urban Carbon Laboratory (VUCL) is currently testing options for monitoring local carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) emissions in Vienna using in-situ measurements and ground-based remote sensing. Building upon the CarboWien pilot project, VUCL has extended and expanded the eddy covariance system that was set-up at the A1 Arsenal tower in December 2017 to measure CO2 fluxes at 144 m above the city. In May 2022, additional instruments were added to the measurement setup at Arsenal to observe CH4 fluxes, as well as ambient CO2 mole fractions and respective 13C/12C ratios. Furthermore, between May and July 2022, four EM27/SUN spectrometers of the Munich Urban Carbon Column network (MUCCnet) were operated in Vienna to measure horizontal gradients in total column CO2 and CH4 mole fractions. This contribution to the University of Vienna Meteorologisch-Geophysikalisches Kolloquium will provide brief introductions to the VUCL and MUCCnet projects. Moreover, first analyses of the 2022 combined campaign of eddy covariance- and EM27/SUN spectrometer measurements will be presented and discussed.
