In dieser Folge reisen wir durch die faszinierenden Wüsten der Welt und begegnen ihren erstaunlichen Bewohnern. Was auf den ersten Blick wie lebensfeindliche Einöde wirkt, entpuppt sich als reich besiedeltes Ökosystem voller wissenschaftlicher Wunder. Von der biochemischen Meisterleistung des Kamels über die UV-Fluoreszenz des Skorpions bis hin zur ingenieurtechnisch inspirierten Nebeltrinktechnik der Namib-Eidechse – die Wüste zeigt uns, wie weit Evolution gehen kann.Kamele &WüstenphysiologieQuelle[1]Schmidt-Nielsen, K.
