Mikroplastik im Strandanwurf: Publikationserfolg für Sinja Dittmann

Sinja Dittmann hatte im Sommer 2019 auf Oceanblogs bereits über ihre Masterarbeit zum Thema Mikroplastik im Strandanwurf berichtet. Es ging in ihrem Projekt darum, eine Methode zu entwickeln, die es erlaubt, die feinen Plastikpartikel aus den Ansammlungen von Algen und Seegras, die sich überall an unseren Ostseestränden finden, herauszuwaschen. Dies war eine Pionierarbeit, denn bislang […]

From lions and the jungle to the happiest country in the world: a story of success

Working on our Master’s projects with a view on the Table Mountain in Cape Town (South Africa) and being in the jungle of Penang (Malaysia) was what we, Annika and Luisa, expected for 2020 – until we finally ended up together in the exotic Scandinavian country of Denmark. It turned out to be one of […]

English: Rebellious, ambitious, excellent – scientists, a contradiction?

‘Rebel: unruly, one who rebels, resists’ Digital Dictionary of the German Language It is not a desire to change everything. Nor is it a rebellion against the system. I have been working at GEOMAR in Kiel since the beginning of September 2020 and represent the three ocean research projects EVAR, REEBUS and CUSCO. These few […]

Rebellisch, strebsam, exzellent – Wissenschaftler*innen, ein scheinbarer Widerspruch

‚Rebell: widerspenstig, wer sich auflehnt, widersetzt‘ Digitales Wörterbuch der Deutschen Sprache Es ist nicht der Wunsch, alles zu verändern. Es ist auch kein Aufbegehren gegen das System. Seit Anfang September 2020 arbeite ich am GEOMAR in Kiel und vertrete die drei Projekte der Ozeanforschung EVAR, REEBUS und CUSCO. Diese wenigen Monate haben genügt, um zu […]

English: Project chaos – project chances

Since September 2020, I have been setting up the public relations for the three oceanic projects REEBUS, CUSCO and EVAR. Interested people can already find the projects on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook. This blog is also meant to be a way for people to dive deeper into everyday science and look behind the scenes of […]

Projektwirren – Projektchancen

Seit September 2020 baue ich die Öffentlichkeitsarbeit für die drei ozeanischen Projekte REEBUS, CUSCO und EVAR auf. Interessierte finden die Projekte bereits auf Twitter, Instagram und Facebook. Auch dieser Blog soll ein Weg für Menschen sein, tiefer in den wissenschaftlichen Alltag einzutauchen und hinter die Kulissen von Wissenschaft zu blicken. Doch wie kommt es dazu, […]

SO279 – NIOZ* is measuring parameters of the carbonate system

NIOZ: Royal Netherlands Institute for Sea Research On board of the RV SONNE, we have installed a pH optode taking continuous measurements at 30 seconds interval inside a cell through which surface seawater runs uninterrupted (Figure 1). This enables us to obtain high resolution pH data, which is rare even for the North Atlantic Ocean. […]

SO279 – Introduction of work from HZG* group

*HZG: Helmholtz-Zentrum Geesthacht, Germany New tools for sampling and analysis of microplastic Apart from the primary plastics chasing activities using various types of nets on SO279, a group of three post-docs and PhD student from the Institute of Coastal Research, Helmholtz-Zentrum Geesthacht (HZG) are bringing something different to the expedition. As we are getting closer […]

SO279 – Secrets of the seabed

Deep sea sediments cover almost two thirds of the planet’s surface, yet they remain mostly unexplored and mysterious. Differently from what was thought in the past, they host greatly biodiverse communities associated to both soft and rocky substrates. From cold water corals (soft corals with no calcareous structure) to holothurians (sea cucumbers), from shrimps to […]
