Researchers from the University of Gothenburg and partner institutions have received an ERC Synergy Grant for the project RECLESS: Recycling versus loss in the marine nitrogen cycle: controls, feedbacks, and the impact of expanding low oxygen regions.
RECLESS will study oxygen-depleted ocean regions and their role in nitrogen cycling, greenhouse-gas emissions, and the carbon cycle. The project brings together oceanographic, biogeochemical, microbiological, ecophysiological, and modelling approaches to better predict how ocean deoxygenation will affect marine ecosystems and climate feedbacks.
FLOW Lab will contribute expertise in physical oceanography, oxygen minimum zones, and high-resolution ocean observations.
