  10. Protistologie & Aquatische Ecologie • Established 1996 • Research themes • Biology & evolution unicellular eukaryotes (protists) • Short- and longterm dynamics of freshwater and marine ecosystems • Microalgal biotechnology • e.g. biotic interactions in microbial food webs (e.g. microalgae-bacteria, grazing), dynamics of estuarine and marine microplankton and microphytobenthos communities, diversity ecosystem function relationships, role of dispersal and local adaptation for spatial and temporal dynamics microlagal populations, diatom cell and life cycles
