PhD project title:

Mapping trophic interactions in small Arctic invertebrates.

PhD project description:

The overarching goal of my PhD-project is to characterize the prey species composition of small Arctic invertebrates along a spatial and temporal gradient in the Barents Sea. My first task is to dissect the diet of small but numerically abundant copepods such as Oithona similis. Due to their small size (< 2 mm), these animals have received less scientific annotation relative to larger Arctic copepods (e.g. Calanus spp.). Moreover, central aspects such as their feeding remains particularly enigmatic due to practical difficulties in identifying small and partially digested organisms from small stomachs. Today, next-generation sequencing and standardized bioinformatics pipelines allow studying the complexity of these trophic interactions in detail. We are therefore using the so-called dietary metabarcoding pipeline to characterize the species composition in their gut-contents, during different seasons and at different latitudes.

Master project title:

Photophysiological responses of marine microalgae to changes in salinity.

Master project description:

I am going to work on the photophysiological responses of sea ice algae when exposed to conditions typical of sample melt. To complete this study, I will use 14C to carry out measurements of primary production, photophysiology, in addition to estimates of abundance and stress. This will be focused on culture-based experiments at UiT, but will also include assessment of mixed algal communities from field sampling.
