Weather data
A large number of automatic weather stations has been implemented in the frame of the BIOTA AFRICA project by the Namibian National Botanical Research Institute (NBRI) and the Group "Biodiversity, Evolution and Ecology" (BEE) of the University of Hamburg. The website offers hourly updates of data and graphs of a large number of weather parameters.

Biodiversity is our Life


Video - Biodiversity is our Life


"Biodiversity is our Life" was edited out of material shot by BIOTA members as part of their research. The short documentary film reflects the perspective of African land-users. It deals with issues like biodiversity perception, the use of natural resources as well as biodiversity change and different strategies of sustainable resource management.
