Last Friday, 14 February 2025, Youssef Saadaoui successfully defended his doctoral thesis on 'Enhancing estuarine marsh ecosystem models through biotic interactions: Investigating the role of root oxygen loss and root exudation on carbon dynamics'. Friends and members of the RTG 2530 and his research group 'Ecological Modelling' came together at the Institute of Plant Sciences and Microbiology (IPM) at the University of Hamburg to take part in this special occasion and celebrate together.

Youssef Saadaoui is warmly congratulated and presented with gifts. In addition to his doctoral hat, he holds a bag printed with his research topic – a special keepsake for the graduates of the RTG 2530. Photo: UHH/RTG2530/Grebe
