Re­search In­terests

My re­search fo­cuses on the in­ter­ac­tion of trans­port-mech­an­isms and mi­cro­bial re­ac­tions in mar­ine en­vir­on­ments. My ap­proach com­bines nu­mer­ical mod­el­ling (Large-Eddy-Sim­u­la­tions, trans­port-re­ac­tion equa­tions, por­ous me­dia), field ob­ser­va­tions (de­vel­op­ment of the benthic ob­ser­vat­ory 'LanceALot') and labor­at­ory ex­per­i­ments (flow-through re­act­ors, mi­cro­fluidics, ima­ging tech­niques).

My main research projects are:

  • Sub­tidal sandy sed­i­ments
  • Biogeochemical processes on beaches
  • Marine Aggregates
  • Ciliary flows of stony corals

 

If you want to know more about my re­search please have a look at the outreach sec­tion and publications.
