Enrico Zambianchi
Research area: Physical Oceanography Why is your research important? I will study the details of the mechanisms ruling transport and diffusion of the Baltic water outflow. They are essential to understand and predict the fate of such waters in the Norwegian Sea and all the way up into the Barents Sea. What are your personal […]

Research area Marine chemistry – Microplastics Why is your research important? In the last years, I have focused my research on assessing the impacts of microplastics on the natural environment, as well as on biorremediation strategies. With my research, I expect to contribute to reduce the plastic footprint (and in general, the human footprint) on […]
Magdalena Machuta
Research area Marine chemistry (mainly nutrients) and issues related to climate change. Why is your research important? I will support other scientists in collecting samples and researching the chemical composition of water and atmosphere samples along the way from the Baltic Sea to the Arctic. What are your personal motivations? So far, I have been involved […]

Research area Phytoplankton (especially potentially toxic species) Why is your research important? Although the phytoplankton of the Baltic Sea, the North Sea and the Norwegian Sea are well known, there is a lack of information on how important the influence of Baltic waters on the distribution range of individual groups of organisms is. The collected […]
Joanna Potapowicz
Research area Chemical composition of various elements of the environment (e.g. water, soil, snow) and identifying pollutants their sources and impact on fauna and flora Why is your research important? Climate change caused by, among others, human activity is a fact, and that is why it is so important to limit our negative impact on the […]
Anita Lewandowska
Research area: Chemistry of the sea (including surface microlayer) and atmosphere, with particular emphasis on the coastal zone and port areas and on transects between them Pollution of jellyfish by selected chemical tracers Why is your research important? The expansion of world trade and the resulting increase in demand for maritime transport services makes them […]
Agata Weydmann-Zwolicka
Research area Marine biology Zooplankton, their role in marine ecosystems and the way how key species are impacted by ongoing climate change Why is your research important? I study the impact of human activity, especially climate change, on the Arctic marine ecosystem, which is now rapidly changing. My research is mainly focused on zooplankton, which […]
