As of March 1st 2013 Lasse Tor Nielsen has joined the center in a two-year post doc position examining traits and trade-offs in microzooplankton grazing
Traits and trade-offs in microzooplankton grazing
In collaboration with researchers at DTU Aqua and DTU Physics, I aim to describe and understand various microzooplankton grazing techniques, and to quantify the advantages and trade-offs associated with each of them. We work with several microzooplankton grazers, using techniques such as high magnification microscopy, high speed video, particle tracking and flow field analysis, aiming, ultimately, to increase our understanding of marine food webs.
