New ARCTOS PhD – Yasemin Bodur
Yasemin successfully defended her PhD thesis on June 28 at UiT in Tromsø. A title of her thesis was: “Aspects of the biological carbon pump in the Atlantic sector of the Arctic: Aggregation, vertical flux and pelagic-benthic coupling“, and can be downloaded here.
Her supervisors have been: Professor Marit Reigstad, UiT; and senior scientist Paul Renaud, Akvaplan-niva.
Yasemin’s thesis consists of three papers:
