Research Interests - One of the key processes in environmental biogeochemistry is micro-plankton growth physiology, nutrient acquisition and microbial regeneration of elements. Phytoplankton primary producers are constrained by physical and chemical boundaries within their environment. Tributaries, estuaries, continental margins, and even open oceans, represent a unique transition between atmosphere, land and ocean with strong physical and biogeochemical couplings. My primary research interest is the interaction between auto- and heterotrophic micro-plankton and the physical and chemical parameters constraining their growth physiology and hence, their significance in open ocean and coastal water biogeochemistry.

Key words - Primary productivity; Microbial respiration; Biogeochemistry, C, N, P-cycling; New & regenerated production


Aquatic primary productivity and respiration - Microbial growth physiology and biogeochemical cycling has always been constrained by our access to new technology. Newfound technological discoveries used to the fullest extent can be very powerful and this is one of the reasons why I find our field of research so exciting. Diel netPP and RESP can now be measured in-situ using a novel DO sensor (that does not consume oxygen) positioned inside an incubator flask. The incubator unit can be light-dark manipulated (5 minutes is enough to get a significant read on net daytime respiration) using a timer controlled unit. Since my arrival at Institute of Marine Research (IMR) in Bergen, the incubator is in the process of being redesigned for onboard in-vitro incubations that generate phytoplankton photosynthesis-irradiance (PI) curves. Since RESP is measured at each light-level (and is not a linear function of netPP)  total PP can also be calculated from this incubation.

Automated sensor platforms used in time-series monitoring - Automated sensors on moored applications were first pioneered in physical oceanography (temperature, salinity, current meters and lately the ADCP), but we are now entering a new chapter in ocean science where more sophisticated chemical and biological sensors are starting to become commercially available. In order to ground-truth the new methods and provide a link to the past, these sensors must be combined with conventional biogeochemical sampling methods. A number of new and exciting sensor platforms, such as Gliders and ARGO buoys, are now routinely used by IMR in the Norwegian Sea and into the Arctic Ocean. In addition to salinity and temperature, automated Glider and ARGO sensor platforms are now also equipped with turbidity and in-situ fluorescence sensors that can cover large regions of the ocean interior.
