Research area, purpose and research questions:
\n<\/strong>The aim of the project is to study phytoplankton spring bloom dynamics in high temporal and spatial resolution for
\nidentifying and quantifying the key drivers. I will study the drivers of the timing, biomass, and community structure
\nof the bloom, which requires high frequency sampling due to spring blooms often changing within days or weeks.
\nAlso spatially, blooms can be very dynamic due to local differences in currents. In Godth\u00e5bsfjorden, the Coriolis
\nforce can lead to a higher outflow at the Northern site and a higher inflow at the Southern side of the fjord, which
\nrequires transect sampling across the fjord to quantify the bloom accurately. I will combine field work and
\nexperiments to determine when a spring bloom is dominated by the flagellate Phaeocystis, which is often a poor
\nfood source for higher trophic levels, and when the bloom is dominated by chain-forming diatoms, which are highly
\nnutritious for grazers. The high-resolution sampling in combination with historical data from the marine Monitoring
\nstation will allow to understand the dynamics and their drivers in great detail and to identify and discuss trends in a
\nchanging climate.
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

Methods of inclusion of society and dissemination to society:
\n<\/strong>The project will be integrated in the graduate course \u201cArctic marine ecosystems in a changing climate\u201d, part of the
\n\u201cArctic Science Study Programme (ASSP)\u201d offered at the Greenland Institute for Natural Resources (GINR) in
\ncollaboration with the Aarhus University (AU). The students will be directly involved in part of the field and lab work,
\nfinishing with student reports in the end of the course.<\/p>\n

The results and field work will mainly be disseminated to the community via the GINR channels (website, social
\nmedia). In addition, we will be accompanied by Ondrej Nowak, a radio journalist from the \u201cCzech Radio\u201d, who
\nalready successfully broadcasted a program from our earlier work on Svalbard. The results will furthermore be
\ndisseminated at the Greenland Science Week (Nuuk) and the Cultural Night (Nuuk).<\/p>\n

Project start and completion date: <\/strong>01\/05\/2022 – 31\/12\/2022<\/p>\n
