von Isabell Schlangen Willkommen zurück auf unserem Ozean-Wissenschafts-Blog! Heute tauchen wir in die faszinierende Welt des Kohlenstoff- und Stickstoff-Kreislaufs im Golf von Bengalen. Uns beschäftigt vor allen Dingen, die folgenden Fragen: Wie eng sind diese Prozesse miteinander verbunden? Wie hat sich die Biogeochemie dieser Region geformt? Und wie wirkt die Sauerstoffminimumzone (OMZ) auf beide Kreisläufe? […]

by Isabell Schlangen Welcome back to our Ocean Science Blog! Today, we’re delving into the fascinating world of carbon and nitrogen cycling in the Bay of Bengal, and how these processes are intimately connected in shaping the biogeochemistry of this region, particularly within the oxygen minimum zone. Almost two weeks after leaving Colombo, we’ve become […]

By Albert Firus and Laurenz van Bonn (GEOMAR) As the SONNE leaves the first measurement station around the equator behind and continues further into the Bay of Bengal, technicians, scientists, and crew on board are quite busy. While for some this is almost routine, such as our technician Mario, who is on his 36th cruise already, […]

by Dr. Arun Babu Suja Greetings from the high seas by the TROPOS scientific team! Our mission during the BIOCAT-IIOE2 cruise is to delve into the fascinating world of atmospheric aerosols – those tiny particles suspended in the air – and unlock their secrets. These tiny particles suspended in the air hold immense significance in […]
