RTG2530 Biota-mediated effects on Carbon cycling in Estuaries
The mission of the Research Training Group „Biota-mediated effects on Carbon cycling in Estuaries“ is to provide Doctoral and Postdoctoral Researchers an outstanding platform for their career development and to systematically analyze the role of indirect effects of biota (IEB) on estuarine carbon cycling. By a combination of ecological, biochemical, and molecular approaches, key processes of the carbon cycle will be analyded in the rhizosphere of marshes, at the sediment surface of intertidal flats, and on organic matter aggregates in estuarine channels.
