Our main target taxa are zooplankton, including crustaceans (copepods, krill, amphipods) and soft-bodied zooplankton such as jellyfish and pteropod molluscs.</p> <p>Our team has a strong focus on polar regions but has worked in many different regions in the world’s oceans, including various regions of the Atlantic Ocean and upwelling systems worldwide.</p> <p>We work at the molecular and ecophysiological level and the ecological and energetic aspects of marine communities and food webs are in our center of interest. We apply different techniques: biomarker analyses, OMICs techniques (environmental DNA metabarcoding, transcriptomics), and ocean optics (analyses of underwater image and video footage).</p> <p>Scientific work is carried out on board of various research vessels, at research stations and our home laboratories in Bremen. Intense collaboration is ongoing with the other marine working groups at the university, especially with the department of <a href="http://www.uni-bremen.de/marbot.html" target="_blank" title="Öffnet internen Link in neuem Fenster">Marine Botany</a>.
