Marine Microorganisms: Cultivation Methods for Improving their Biotechnological Applications (MACUMBA)

Start date: Aug 1, 2012, End date: Jul 31, 2016,

Marine microorganisms form an almost untapped resource of biotechnological potential. However, its use is hindered by the low success rate of isolation of novel microorganisms and often by poor growth efficiency. Hence, the vast majority of marine microorganisms has not been cultivated and is often considered as ‘unculturable’. MaCuMBA aims at improving the isolation rate and growth efficiency of ...

Global Statistics of Ocean Currents (GSOC)

Start date: Sep 1, 2011, End date: Aug 31, 2015,

We exploit a very large global database of in situ current velocity, and temperature time series at fixed-positions (i.e. not drifting) to create summary statistics of ocean currents. Of principal interest are a decomposition of energy in different frequency bands, and the vertical and horizontal decorrelation length scales, and the interdependence between length scales and timescales. These in si ...

Physiopathology of decompression : risk factors for the formation of intravascular bubbles during decompression (PHYPODE)

Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2014,

"Decompression sickness (DCS) is caused by circulating inert gas bubble formation in blood vessels and tissues resulting from supersaturation during inadequate decompression. It is an acknowledged risk of situations involving variations in ambient pressure, such as space flight and extravehicular activity, exposure to altitude, hyperbaric tunnelling intervention, as well as recreational and commer ...

Knowledge-based Sustainable Management for Europe's Seas (KnowSeas)

Start date: Apr 1, 2009, End date: Jun 30, 2013,

Europe’s four regional seas (Baltic, Black, Mediterranean and NE Atlantic) have suffered severe environmental degradation due to human pressure. Existing measures to manage pressures have proven inadequate and the EC has responded by proposing a new policy (Maritime Strategy Blue Book) and environmental legislation (Marine Strategy Directive), both currently close to adoption. These instruments re ...

Sources and Biogeochemical Cycling of Iron Isotopes in Marine Environments (ISOMAR)

Start date: Oct 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2012,

"Iron (Fe) is now recognized as a limiting nutrient in large regions of world’s ocean and changes in the supply of Fe to the upper ocean may lead to climate change by affecting biological productivity and altering rates of carbon sequestration. However, there is a continuing debate over the sources of dissolved Fe to the global ocean. Therefore, it is difficult to predict how climate-driven change ...
