Background Long-term monitoring of marine and Arctic ecosystems generates large volumes of biological and environmental data, but current analysis methods only partly capture the information they contain. This project, part of the Helmholtz School for Marine Data Science (MarDATA), will develop new data science methods to improve the interpretation of biodiversity patterns from long-term Arctic…

Background The Sargasso Sea in the North Atlantic is an oceanic region, where huge amounts of floating, holo-pelagic seaweeds of the genus Sargassum accumulate in the sub-tropical convergence. The floating Sargassum thalli are inhabited by a characteristic and diverse fauna of rafting species. About 70 samples of floating Sargassum have been collected on a recent expedition of the German research…
Background Arctic communities rely on sea ice for their way of life: commuting, hunting, fishing, trapping, and other traditional activities. Since 1979, Arctic sea ice extent has declined by about 40% in summer and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) predicts that, by 2050, the Arctic Ocean will be completely sea ice free. As […] The post PhD position: Sustainable use of the…
