The Lower Saxony Institute for Historical Coastal Research (NIhK) is a non-university research institute of the State of Lower Saxony operating under the auspices of the Lower Saxony Ministry of Science and Culture. It investigates the closely interwoven developments of settlement, landscape and vegetation in the coastal zones of northern Germany and neighbouring landscapes from the end of the last glacial period to the modern era. At the NIhK, natural and cultural sciences work closely together in an interdisciplinary manner, particularly in the disciplines of coastal and quaternary geology, geoarchaeology, soil science, geophysics, landscape, settlement and burial ground archaeology, historical geography, archaeobotany and vegetation history.
