Eyram Koku Apetcho – HOSST
Physical and biogeochemical modeller
I am currently working on hypoxia in the Eastern tropical Atlantic. Because of the importance of oxygen for every living species on the Earth, its variability is of our concern especially in some particularly marine environment where oxygen low concentration is observed, the so called Oxygen Minimum Zone (OMZ). What drive the OMZ changes in the Eastern Tropical Atlantic? As there is an interplay between physical and biogeochemical processes in the study area, I apply coupled physical – biogeochemical model in conjunction with in situ and satellite data to investigate the dynamics of Oxygen Minimum Zones in the Eastern Tropical Atlantic and also look at the connection with the climate change. Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Andreas Oschlies, Prof. Dr. Birgit Schneider Transatlantic Co-Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Katja Fennel
Swaant je Bennecke – HOSST (np)
Marine biologist
My work focuses on distribution patterns of cold-water corals. I use video footage to map different coral habitats on both sites of the North Atlantic - in Norway and in the Gulf of Maine. Habitat suitability modelling is applied to determine further possible, yet unknown coral locations. In this process environmental parameters are correlated to coral presence data. Understanding the factors that drive coral distribution is essential for characterizing and protecting these habitats. Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Christian Dullo Transatlantic Co-Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Anna Metaxas
Kr i s t ina Börder - TOSST
Marine Biologist
The actual spatial extent of worldwide fishing is largely unknown. For my Ph.D. I map the global fishing effort using satellite vessel tracking techniques. I evaluate temporal and spatial changes of fishing pattern worldwide especially in relation to large-scale marine protected areas, which can affect fisheries by displacing fishing effort to surrounding areas and concentrating effort along the boundaries. This knowledge will be useful for fisheries management as well as conservation actions. Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Boris Worm Transatlantic Co-Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Martin Quaas
HOSST Summer School Kiel 2014
Corinna Breus ing – HOSST (np)
Deep Sea Biologist
Related to the transatlantic Helmholtz Research School for Ocean System Science and Technology (HOSST) my project will focus on the mechanisms that influence speciation and patterns of population connectivity at deep sea hydrothermal vents. I will conduct genetic as well as eco-physiological analyses on mussel species of the genus Bathymodiolus and model larval dispersal to characterize the importance of reproductive, ecological and geographic isolation. Supervisors: Prof. Dr. Torsten Reusch, Prof. Dr. Frank Melzner, Transatlantic Co-Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Anna Metaxas
Ann ika Drews - HOSST (np)
Climate modeller
My PhD work is dealing with the path of the Gulf Stream and the North Atlantic Current in a general circulation model. Climate models have problems resolving the path correctly and therefore exhibit a large cold bias in the Northwest Atlantic compared to observations. This problem is mainly due to the coarse resolution in global models, but might have other reasons as well. I am trying to improve the model performance in this area by implementing different correction techniques. Supervisors: Prof. Dr. Richard Greatbatch, Prof. Dr. Mojib Latif Transatlantic Co-Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Jinyu Sheng
Manue l Dureu i l - TOSST
Biologist
My PhD project aims at understanding the spatial ecology of North Atlantic shark populations in order to provide a scientific basis for top predator restoration programs and an ecosystem based approach in shark conservation. As part of the project, spatial distribution, migration patterns and critical habitat areas will be identified and the overlap with human activities such as fishing as well as the effect of oceanographic or prey species changes will be investigated. The results will help to develop comprehensive protection measures of threatened North Atlantic shark populations. Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Boris Worm Transatlantic Co-Supervisor: Dr. Rainer Froese
HOSST Summer School Kiel 2014
Jud i th E lger - HOSST
Geophysicist
I am studying the history and origin of submarine landslides to better understand where and why they occur. The main approach is the analysis of seismic and other acoustic data which I combine with different local environmental information in order to better understand the whole complex process. Submarine slope can destroy seafloor installations and coastal infrastructure by generating tsunamis. Because human activities move offshore it is important to find out how this influences slope stability. Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Sebastian Krastel, Prof. Dr. Christian Berndt Transatlantic Co-Supervisor: Prof. Dr. David Piper
A lexandra F i l ippova – HOSST
Paleoceanographer
My project is the application of radiogenic isotopes (Nd, Hf, Pb) and alkenones to reconstruct changes in past ocean circulation and weathering inputs in the western North Atlantic and the Labrador Sea over the past 25,000 years and to evaluate their driving mechanisms, which includes a calibration of these signatures based on present day water column and surface sediment data. Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Martin Frank, Prof. Dr. Dirk Nürnberg Transatlantic Co-Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Markus Kienast
Sebast i an F löter - HOSST
Biogeochemist
My thesis focuses on the boron isotope and the elemental composition of pteropod shells. I will use the shell composition of these winged snails to develop a new boron isotope-pH-calibration to reconstruct past pH and pCO2 values in the ocean. In addition my research should provide new information to biomineralisation processes in aragonitic calcifiers. Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Anton Eisenhauer, Dr. Marcus Gutjahr, Transatlantic Co-Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Markus Kienast
M ir j am Held – TOSST
Marine Biologist / Marine Resource Manager
My PhD research is part of the Fish-WIKS (Fisheries – Western and Indigenous Knowledge Systems) project which explores Western and distinct indigenous knowledge systems to inform fisheries governance and management in Canada. I will investigate how the different processes by which Inuit and Western science acquire, transmit, value and use knowledge can be harnessed to enhance the current regime of decision-making and consequently improve fisheries management in Nunavut (Canadian Arctic). Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Lucia Fanning Transatlantic Co-Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Nele Matz-Lück
HOSST Summer School Kiel 2014
Arne Johanson- HOSST
Numerical mathematician
In my PhD project I am working on the boundary of biological modeling, numerical mathematics and software engineering. The aim is to develop a spatially explicit model for long-term fish stock prediction and to implement it in a well-engineered way. The fish stock model is to be coupled with existing biogeochemical models to study the interactions of different trophic levels in marine ecosystems. The implementation of the model is supported by utilizing model-driven software development techniques. Supervisors: Prof. Dr. Wilhelm Hasselbring, Prof. Dr. Andreas Oschlies Transatlantic Co-Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Boris Worm
John Chr i s topher L ’Esperance - TOSST
Chemical Oceanographer
My Ph.D. research involves the development of an unattended, gas chromatograph (GC) system for the detection of the conservative tracer, SF5CF3. The system will be integrated with the snorkelling, semi-submersible, Dorado vehicle (International Submarine Engineering, Port Coquitlam, B.C.) in support of intentionally released tracer studies. Supervisors: Prof. Dr. Douglas Wallace, Prof. Dr. Mae Seto Transatlantic Co-Supervisor: Dr. Toste Tanhua
Nad ine Lehmann - TOSST
Biologist
As part of the Canadian Arctic GEOTRACES program, a research project on marine biogeochemical cycles of trace elements and their isotopes, the focus of my work will be the cycling of nitrogen and the geochemical modification of waters as they flow from the Pacific to the Labrador Sea. I am interested in using the N and O isotopic composition of nitrate as a geochemical tracer to describe both nutrient cycling and water mass distributions in the Ocean. Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Markus Kienast Transatlantic Co-Supervisor: nn
Jonathan Lemay - TOSST
MSc. Student in Chemical Oceanography
My research is currently focused on the interannual variability of carbon on the Scotian Shelf. My methods for data collection are twofold. The first being a buoy ~30km off Halifax harbour collecting hourly measurements of pCO2. The second is water collection along 4 major transects across the Scotian Shelf. These water samples are analysed to get dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), total alkalinity (TA), and DI13C values. Using this data I hope to make inferences on what regulates inorganic carbon cycling on the Scotian Shelf over seasonal to annual timescales. MSc. Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Helmuth Thomas Transatlantic Co-Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Arne Koertzinger

S téphan ie Cé l ine Mich l - HOSST
Biologist
Adaptive potential of aquaculture species towards different feeding strategies Due to early adaptations, feeding high fish meal contents to trout fry could have negative effects on adult feeding with high plant protein contents. Thus first feeding based on plant proteins could be beneficial. However, the ability to adapt to alternative diets could have already been diminished by genetic adaptations of trout strains selected for production, which will be verified through a comparison of wild and farmed trout. Supervisors: Prof. Dr. Carsten Schulz, Dr. Bernd Ueberschär Transatlantic Co-Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Jeffrey Hutchings
Maryam Mirza loo - HOSST
Paleoceanographer
My study is based on high-quality marine sediment cores recently recovered from the southern to southeastern Iceland margins, allowing resolving the Pleistocene to Holocene climate evolution close to Iceland at centennial to decadal timescales over the past 120.000 years. I will use Distinct volcanic ash layers to correlate the cores recoverd during Cruise P457 these will help to establish a robust core stratigraphy. Supervisors: Prof. Dr. Dirk Nürnberg, Prof. Dr. Martin Frank Transatlantic Co-Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Markus Kienast
Domin ik Pa lgan - HOSST
Marine Geologist
I aim to use Icelandic hot springs as onshore analogues for hydrothermal systems in the North Atlantic to develop a predictive model for their tectonic and volcanological controls. I mapped promising sites in Iceland during last summer field season. I will use collected on land data to target areas of interest for observations of submarine hydrothermal systems along the Reykjanes Ridge, which will be collected on a cruise in September 2014, using the ROV and high-resolution bathymetry from AUV. Supervisors: Prof. Dr. Colin Devey Transatlantic Co-Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Keith Louden

Lorenza Ra imond i - TOSST
Chemical Oceanographer
My PhD project is part of the VITALS program (Ventilation, Interaction and Transport Across the Labrador Sea), whose principal aim is to understand the dynamics of gas exchange between deep ocean and atmosphere through the Labrador Sea. My research activity focus on the connection between the surface carbon uptake and storage in the deep water along this area, and how deep convection works for the uptake of the atmospheric CO2. Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Kumiko Azetsu-Scott (BU), Prof. Dr. Doug Wallace (DAL) Transatlantic Co-Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Arne Körtzinger
J enn i -Mar ie Rat ten - TOSST
Biochemist
I use molecular methods to characterize, localize and cultivate marine nitrogen fixers. This is a special group of prokaryotic and archaeal organisms that can turn dinitrogen gas into biological available ammonium. Until recently it was believed that the majority of nitrogen fixation in the ocean was performed by Trichodesmium sp., a non-heterocystous filamentous cyanobacteria. However, recent studies show that the diazotrophic diversity is much greater, which leaves many questions open about their role in the ocean. Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Julie LaRoche Transatlantic Co-Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Ruth Schmitz-Streit
Gennav ieve Ruckdesche l - TOSST
Biological Oceanographer
My MSc project focusses on studying the distributions, mechanisms for distribution, and trophic connectivity of zooplankton over Emerald Basin and the Gully (Marine Protected Area) on the Scotian Shelf, through the use of Slocum gliders with an integrated 300 kHz echosounder. Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Tetjana Ross Transatlantic Co-Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Ulrich Sommer
Ibrah im Sad iek - HOSST
Chemist (Physical Chemistry)
Our main objective is to develop an IR-CRDS analyzer for quantitative detection of organohalogen compounds in marine environments. Utilizing a high-power tunable cw-OPO-IR laser system, the so-called saturated absorption cavity ringdown spectroscopy (SCAR) will be assessed for further sensitivity enhancement.

Nad ine Schat te l - HOSST
Petrologist/Geochemist
The topic for my PhD is explosive silicic volcanism on Iceland. I work on the contrasting conditions of silicic magma origin with respect to their tectonic setting on Iceland. Therefore, I use physicochemical parameters (pressure, temperature, oxygen and water fugacity) together with geochemistry from melt inclusions, matrix glass and minerals from different volcanic centers located at different geotectonic zones. This work may give implications for the formation of the proto-continental crust. Supervisors: Prof. Dr. Kaj Hoernle Transatlantic Co-Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Georgia Pe-Piper
I rena Schu l ten – TOSST
Marine Geosciences
My PhD-Thesis includes the analysis and interpretation of seismic data in comparison with multibeam swath bathymetry data acquired from the St. Pierre Slope at the southwestern Grand Banks area of Newfoundland margin. This region is known for the 1929 Grand Banks earthquake, landslide and tsunami that caused severe damage and causalities in eastern Canada. The event itself is unique, as it leads to understand landslide-triggered tsunamis and the nature of turbidity currents. However, the characteristics of the submarine landslide, which was triggered by the earthquake, and how it generated such a large tsunami, is still not well understood. Supervisor: Prof. Dr. David Mosher, Prof. Dr. Markus Kienast Transatlantic Co-Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Sebastian Krastel
Yuan Wang - TOSST
Physical Oceanography and Ocean Modeling
My PhD work focuses on the main physical processes affecting circulation variability over the northwest Atlantic (NWA) Ocean. A 3D ocean circulation model, the Nucleus for European Modeling of the Ocean (NEMO), is used to estimate the possible changes in circulation and hydrographic distributions over the region. Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Jinyu Sheng (Dalhousie) Transatlantic-Co-Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Richard Greatbatch (GEOMAR)
Ru i Zang - TOSST
Oceanographer
For my PhD I will apply physical-biogeochemical models (based on ROMS and coupled biology model) to study variability of physical and ecosystem conditions in Northwest Atlantic. For example, to quantitatively evaluate how the transport of shelf break current impact the hydrographic properties and how those factors further influence the growth of lower trophic and higher trophic levels.
