Personal Summary

My interests lie in the marine inorganic carbon cycle and the corresponding measurement techniques. Even as a student, I was interested in the complexity of marine research and the importance of interdisciplinary cooperation to understand the processes in the ocean. I have participated in more than 20 research expeditions, but also have more than 20 years of experience with measurements on non-scientific platforms (e.g. container ships, cruise ships, sailing ships). In this context, I am involved in the European research infrastructure ICOS (see above), but also in SOCAT (Surface Ocean Carbon Dioxide Atlas, ) and in the establishment of the global SOCONET network, which has set itself the goal of coordinating and expanding global measurements of CO2 in surface water.
