Blue SDU - Department of Biology Alexander H. Treusch, Associate Professor, Department of Biology Blue interests: Marine microbial ecology; Microbial community structure and function in oxygen minimum zones; Changes in microbial community composition in the Swedish Byfjord in response to an engineered oxygenation; Succession of microbial communities in sediments during a costal realignment project at Gyldensteen (Fynen) Research area and projects: Environmental microbiology; microbial community structure in freshwater and marine ecosystems; Archaea; Thaumarchaeota; archaeal lipid metabolism; nitrogen and carbon cycling; environmental changes due to anthropogenic influences; climate change; molecular microbial ecology; metagenomics, -transcriptomics, -proteomics Teachings: Microbiology (BB509); Aquatic Microbial and Molecular Ecology (BB201); A Sustainable Future (BB530); First Year Science Project (FF501) Donald Eugene Canfield, Head of Centre, Professor, PhD Yale University Nordic Center for Earth Evolution (NordCEE) Erik Kristensen, Associate Professor, Department of Biology Blue interests: Benthic flora and fauna development in relation to ecosystem restoration; estuarine eutrophication; and coastal realignment. Research area and projects: Impacts of benthic flora and fauna on sediment biogeochemistry in coastal marine ecosystems; eelgrass restoration and ecosystem functioning; benthic fauna and bioturbation in marine sediments; mangrove biogeochemistry and foodweb dynamics; stable isotopes and estuarine ecology. Teaching: Ecology (BB510); Marine Ecosystems (BB832); Aquatic Microbial and Molecular Ecology (BB201). Harald Hasler-Sheetal, Post-Doc, Department of Biology Blue interests: Global carbon cycle/budget, arctic biological carbon pump, carbon sequestration by seagrasses, Invasive species Research area: metabolomics, linking molecular approaches to ecosystems level marine eco-systems biology, assessment of marine plants to sequestrate carbon, effect of global climate change on carbon sequestration, effect of global climate change of marine plants, effect of arctic glacier meltdown on the biological carbon pump. I am fascinated by the approach of scaling up information on molecular level to ecosystem level and thereby finding biomarkers for environmental changes/stress. Teaching: Aquatic biology, metabolomics (summer course) Henrik Holbech, Associate professor, Department of Biology (Ecotoxicology) Blue interest: Ships ballast water treatment and verification of treatment efficiency, invasive species, aquatic ecotoxicology of chemicals and heavy metals, development of standardized test methods. Research area and projects: Verification of organism viability after different types of ballast water treatment (in collaboration with DHI, Hoersholm). Effects and biomarkers of endocrine disrupting chemicals in the aquatic environment (Funded by the Danish Environmental Protection Agency), Heavy metals in the aquatic environment. Pharmaceuticals in the environment. International test guideline development (OECD, EU). Hazard and Risk assessment of chemicals. Teachings: Ecotoxicology, pharmaceutical toxicology, molecular toxicology, risk assessment of chemicals, endocrinology.
