OCEANOGRAPHY AND MANAGEMENT OF THE MARINE ENVIRONMENT

MARINE MICROBIOLOGY

  • Morphology and functions of marine prokaryotic microorganisms (Bacteria, Cyanobacteria, Archaea).
  • Metabolic diversity - intake of energy and nutrients, growth.
  • Methods for studying the aquatic microorganisms.
  • Measuring productivity - biomass.
  • Biodiversity.
  • Marine viruses.
  • Structure and life cycles of the phaga.
  • Diversity of “species”, abundance and biogeography.
  • The fungi in marine environment.
  • Ecology.
  • The microbial trophic web of the water column.
  • Photosynthetic microbial populations in plankton.
  • Biogeography of aquatic microorganisms.
  • Sediment geomicrobiology.
  • Influence of bio-disturbance by the endofauna on the bacterial processes of transgenesis.
  • The role of microorganisms in the sediment trophic webs.
