Biological Oceanography, Marine Ecology
Activities
My current research interests are Ecophysiology, NMR Metabolomics, Energy
budgets, Salinity tolerance, Osmolytes, Biogeography, Benthic
Invertebrates, Cellular osmoregulation of osmoconformers.
My PhD project is about the Desalination of the Baltic Sea: A study on the
salinity tolerance and biogeographic changes of benthic osmoconformers
in the course of climate change.
This work involves aquarium experiments in the laboratory.
I am also a certified scientific diver.
I also worked in the field of Submarine Groundwater Discharge (SGD) for over 2 years. Here I worked with tropical seagrasses of Indonesia and Zanzibar and did studies on physiological stress response of seagrasses in relation to SGD (eutrophication and low salinity).
In my masterthesis I studied the salinity tolerance of a novel exotic species in the Baltic Sea - the sea anemone Diadumene lineata.
