Studies on the mineral composition of sediment samples taken during RAiN expeditions are carried out at the Laboratory for Provenance Studies at the University of Milano (Italy).
A close cooperation exists with the research project 'CAUSAL', which is funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) since 2015 and focuses on the reconstruction of the paleoenvironment and climate in the winter rainfall zone of South Africa. For this purpose, sediment cores are investigated, which have been recovered during a RAiN expedition in 2014 from the Verlorenvlei.
Paleomagnetic measurements in SP1 are conducted by Torsten Haberzettl in the labs of Prof. Dr. J. Stoner and Prof. Dr. G- St-Onge.
