Over het archief
Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.
Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

| Abstract |
The Natural History Museum Vienna houses approximately 30 million specimens, framed by an imperial architecture. Highlights in the 39 exhibit halls include the world-famous and unique 29,500-year-old Venus of Willendorf, the world’s largest and oldest public collection of meteorites, as well as the large dinosaur hall with a true-to-life animatronics model of an Allosaurus. But the museum is also one of the largest non-university research centers in Austria. The museum’s departments are home to around 60 scientists carrying out fundamental research in a wide range of fields. Due to the integrative role between life and earth sciences, the Geological-Paleontological Department has an outstanding position within the museum. Its staff members are curators and researchers in dual role and organize about 3.5 million objects. Like the museum’s architecture, the foci of the scientific collections were strongly influenced by the history of the Habsburg Monarchy. |
