Nannoplankton Research Group

The Nannoplankton Research Group focuses on studying tiny marine organisms called nannoplankton, which are vital for ocean ecosystems. These microscopic plants and algae play a key role in carbon cycling and serve as a primary food source for marine life. Researchers analyze their distribution, diversity, and contribution to global processes, such as climate change. By understanding nannoplankton, scientists can gain insights into ocean health and how it affects the broader environment, helping us address ecological challenges and make informed decisions about conservation and resource management.
