Abtauchen in die Unterwasser-Welt Kiels und mit Profis die unterschiedlichsten Organismen erforschen. Das durften wir, 24 StudentInnen der CAU, Dank dem Umweltbildungsprojekt Snorkeling.City erleben. Im Rahmen einer Exkursion haben wir uns mit Herrn Dr. Henry Göhlich und seinem Team in der Strandbar am Seebad Düsternbrook getroffen. Unser Arbeitsbereich für den heutigen Tag war perfekt gewählt, […]
Exploring the underwater world of Kiel and discovering a wide variety of marine organisms – all guided by professionals. Thanks to the environmental education project Snorkeling.City, we, 24 students from Kiel University (CAU), had the opportunity to experience this first-hand. As part of an excursion, we met with the project coordinator Dr. Henry Göhlich and his […]
EGU 2025 (I) Hello, my name is Elisaveta – though I often go by Lisa – and I’m a second-year doctoral researcher at GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel. My research focuses on marine geophysics, particularly using ocean bottom seismometers (OBS) and 2D seismic reflection data. At EGU 2025, I presented data from the […]
Research into light pollution in Malaysia Imagine you are walking along the promenade or through your favorite street at night. What do you see? The glow of streetlights, ship lights, illuminated shop windows. You probably see something, right? While actually, it should be dark. The issue at hand is light pollution. Artificial light at night […]
International Seaweed Symposium My name is Friederike Gronwald. I am a third-year PhD student in the Management Ecology of Marine Macrophytes Group (RU Experimental Ecology) at the GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research. My work focuses on the hydrodynamic and aerodynamic effects on the drifting behaviour of marine macrophytes with diverse morphologies in the Baltic […]
Hi, Henrike here. You don’t know me? Well, we should change that. Formally, I’m a scientist, a science educator and communicator, and a project manager. Personally, I love taking my dog for walks on the beach, feeling the sun on my face and the wind in my hair. I’m creative, curious, a bit chaotic, often […]
The ICYMARE conference in Bremen Hi, my name is Josephine, I am a student in the Master’s program Biological Oceanography at Geomar Helmholtz-Center for Ocean Research. I am currently writing my Master’s thesis at the Research and Technology Center (FTZ) in Büsum, which is part of Kiel University. My research focuses on the diversity and […]
Last month 150 years ago, on the 23rd of March 1875, the participants of the Challenger expedition plumbed out the deepest point of the Earth, which is now called the Challenger Deep in their honour. This expedition was different from previous endeavours, as scientific exploration was its primary objective, not just a useful side-quest to […]
The 17th Deep-Sea Biology Symposium in Hong Kong I am Véronique Merten, a postdoc in the Deep-Sea Biology Group at GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel. In my research, I focus on deep-sea organisms, with a particular interest in squids (cephalopods) and whales (cetaceans). By combining environmental DNA analysis with techniques like biologging, net […]
As I mentioned in my previous post, every scientist has a different opinion on what success looks like for marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR). Some believe that the risks are worth the benefit because the risks of unmitigated climate change are far higher than the risks associated with mCDR. At the other end of the […]
