starting 10.4.2013
- Prerequisites / Organisational information:
- A bachelor`s degree in a biological discipline and participation in a master study programme in a scientific discipline.
The grade is based on a final written exam (100%) A "pass" for an oral presentation during the course constitutes the prerequisite for participation in the final exam.
- Contents:
- The module provides in-depth information about dominant sympagic, pelagic and benthic organisms (including micro-organisms) and their specific environments in the polar regions of both hemispheres. The course will also cover topics of land-sea interactions, e.g. in estuaries and shelf ecosystems. Besides presenting the current knowledge on the general biology and ecology of these organisms, special topics such as threats, population status and conservation issues of habitats for individual species are also addressed with special respect to warming and subsequent man-made changes. The course is a combination of a series of lectures and a literature seminar with oral presentations of the students.

Basic knowledge of elemental cycles, chemical and biological processes in the ocean.
- Contents:
- On-going research in marine biogeochemistry will be presented and critically discussed. Current topics will be from a broad area of marine sciences with relevance to marine biogeochemistry, including molecular biology and genetics, physiology, ecology to marine chemistry, isotope geochemistry, atmospheric chemistry to ecosystem and biogeochemical modelling.
In the seminar series students will be exposed to current research topics, new developments and novel scientific concepts in the area of marine biogeochemistry.
The seminar series will provide students with the opportunity to improve their competence to critically evaluate on-going research, participate in scientific discussions, select their own research questions, formulate testable hypotheses and select state-of-the-art methodologies. By experiencing the interdisciplinary nature of marine sciences, students will develop the ability to place results ina specific area into the larger context of understanding the role of the ocean in the earth system.
