Sarah Weber is a new PhD student in Biological Oceanography at the Leibniz Institute for Baltic Sea Research Warnemünde (IOW) in Germany, where she is a part of Dr. Maren Voss’s working group. Sarah has a general interest in marine biogeochemistry, with a focus on nitrogen fixation (diazotrophy). For her thesis, Sarah will be exploring … Continued
Maren Voss studied Biology and Biological Oceanography in Kiel, Germany, at the Institute of Marine Research (today called GEOMAR). Her PhD was on carbon and nitrogen stable isotope signatures in sedimenting particles and how the history and processes of the upper water column are reflected in these data. To learn the specific analytical method for … Continued
Joseph Montoya is a biological oceanographer with research interests at the interface of biology and geochemistry. His lab specializes in studies of the marine nitrogen cycle and the role of N2-fixation (diazotrophy) in structuring the flow of nitrogen and energy through planktonic ecosystems. Much of his lab’s work has focused on N cycle processes in … Continued
