Doctoral project: How are carbon flows in coastal ecosystems influenced by climate change? A major knowledge-gap in science is how climate change will affect biochemical processes, biodiversity, and…
Doctoral project: Mixotrophic cultivation of microalgae for nutrient and CO2 recovery from waste streams Microalgae can efficiently recover nutrient and CO2 from industrial waste streams. Mixotrophic…
Project: Focusing on Temperature and Salinity Changes in Cyanobacteria Rising water temperatures, due to global warming, has been suggested to be beneficial for phytoplankton, especially…
Project: Wetlands, Algae, Biogas (WAB) The project examines the possibility of producing biogas using macroalgae and beach cast.
Project: Algoland – Cleaning the air The Algoland project - Cleaning the air finds sustainable solutions to societal challenges. With Linnaeus University at its core, Algoland encompasses a community…
Project: Allelobact The goal of the project is to identify specific mechanisms of action involving allelochemicals in bacterial-algal interactions to understand their role in harmful algal bloom (HAB)…
Project: Impact of harmful cyanobacteria on coastal fish recruitment In the project CYANOFISH we hypothesize that fish exposed to high levels of cyanobacteria ( (exposed bays) are more tolerant than…
Project: Kalmarsund Station (K-station) The Kalmarsund Station (K-station) is a coastal sampling station that is used to study the ecology and seasonal dynamics of phytoplankton in the Baltic Sea. The…
Project: Multi-Use Offshore Platform This project examines the feasibility of developing a pilot-scale multi-use offshore platform (MUOP) at the wind farm nearshore Kårehamn in the Baltic Sea.
Project: Transfer of thiamin in the microbial food web (MicroThi) Thiamin (vitamin B1) deficiency cause behavioural and reproductive disorders leading to mortality in fish and birds. The aim of the…
Project: Picocyanobacteria, significant primary producers but largely overlooked players in coastal waters Tiny single-celled photosynthetic bacteria, picocyanobacteria, contribute significantly to…
Project: Why do animals in the Baltic Sea display symptoms of starvation when there is plenty of food? Project Members: Samuel Hylander (Lnu), Sanna Majaneva, Emil Fridolfsson (Lnu) and Martin Brüsin…
Project: Virus control on Baltic Picocyanobacteria Viruses are the most abundant biological entity in marine environments and influence the abundance and evolution of microbes. Here, we explore the…
Algoland - Algal Solutions for Air, Water, Industry and Society Our research group studies the capacity of microalgae to purify air and water, produce energy and biomass and contribute to sustainable…
Ecochange: Ecosystem dynamics in the Baltic Sea in a changing climate perspective Ecochange is a research programme, which intends to estimate and predict the climate change responses of the Baltic…
Linnaeus University Centre for Ecology and Evolution in Microbial model Systems (EEMiS) EEMiS is a centre for research excellence studying ecological and evolutionary interactions from land to sea.
Marine phytoplankton ecology and applications (MPEA) Our research team works within the complex and fascinating world of phytoplankton, and studies the role of bio- and chemical interactions among…
Fish Ecology Research Group (FERG) Baltic coastal populations of predatory fish, mainly perch and pike, has been greatly reduced in recent decades. Underlying causes can be altered food webs,…
