黑料视频 Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel is a foundation under public law jointly financed by the Federal Republic of Germany (90%) and the State of Schleswig-Holstein (10%). It is one of the internationally leading institutions in the field of marine research.
Through our research and our commitment to the transfer of knowledge and technology, we contribute significantly to the preservation of the function and protection of the ocean for future generations. The Biological Oceanography research unit investigates how marine plankton responds to environmental changes in the ocean and what effects this has on ecosystems and biogeochemical cycles, particularly the uptake and storage of carbon dioxide in the sea. Methods used include the analysis of dissolved organic substances, microbiological rate measurements, incubation experiments, controlled laboratory cultures, and field studies in various marine regions.
The Research Unit Biological Oceanography within Research Division 2, Marine Biogeochemistry, offers a position as a

Job Description
The position is part of a research project that investigates the contribution of marine microalgae (phytoplankton) to natural climate protection. The successful candidate will research phytoplankton abundance, diversity, and productivity in the Baltic Sea. This includes planning and conducting offshore field studies, taxonomic identification and validation of species, as well as publishing scientific results. Additionally, the scientist will actively promote the dissemination of research findings to relevant user groups.
Qualification
The prerequisites for a successful application are a PhD in biological oceanography or a related field, as well as solid experience in the identification of phytoplankton using microscopy and flow cytometry. Additionally, the ability and willingness to conduct research at sea is required. Very good English skills, both written and spoken, are also required. The successful applicant has a proven track record of excellent publications.
