Summary

Description
English: From the beginning of November to the end of December 2023, an Austrian-German expedition team managed a southwest-northeast crossing through the entire Rub-al-Khali region on the Saudi Arabian side. On a 1500km route through partly still completely unexplored areas, new geological and archaeological scientific findings were collected and documented. In the field of palaeo-lake research, sites that had previously only been investigated on satellite images were now actually explored in the field. The mission called "Traces in the Empty Quarter" is one of the most recent documented crossings.
Deutsch: Von Anfang November bis Ende Dezember 2023 gelang einem Österreichisch-Deutschem Expeditionsteam eine Südwest – Nordost Durchquerung durch das gesamte Gebiet der Rub-al-Khali auf Saudi-Arabischer Seite. Auf einer 1500km langen Strecke durch teilweise noch zur Gänze unerforschtem Gebiet, wurden neue Geologische sowie Archäologische Wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse gesammelt und dokumentiert. Im Bereich der Paläosee-Forschung wurden Orte, die bis dato nur auf Satellitenbildern untersucht wurden, nun tatsächlich im Feld exploriert. Die Mission mit dem Namen „Traces in the Empty Quarter“ gilt als eine der aktuellsten belegten Durchquerungen.
