Expertise

The marine carbon cycle: the biological carbon pump // ocean acidification // calcification
Plankton ecology: food webs // evolution
Negative emissions: artificial upwelling // ocean alkalinity enhancement // ocean iron fertilization

Research Themes

Lennart investigates how plankton communities are affected by climate change and how this could alter key ecosystem services provided by the oceans. This includes ocean productivity or the capacity of the oceans to absorb anthropogenic CO₂.

Furthermore, he investigates ocean-based solutions for the climate crisis that could be used in future climate intervention schemes (e.g. “Ocean Iron Fertilization” or “Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement”).

Current projects

Geoengineering the Southern Ocean? A transdisciplinary assessment.
Artificial upwelling of nutrient-rich deep-ocean water (Ocean artUp).
Why do coccolithophores calcify? The potential of the calcium carbonate shell to serve as protection against grazers (calciWHY).

Enhanced Weathering - a sustainable tool for CO2 Removal? (2020 - 2023)$787,057

Description: This project aims to be the first to assess risks and co-benefits of Enhanced Weathering for marine pelagicecosystems. Enhanced Weathering is a powerful tool that can reduce atmospheric CO2 with significant economicco-benefits. However, it perturbs seawater chemistry and associated impacts on marine ecosystems areunknown. This project expects to combine state-of-the-art field and laboratory research to reveal whetherEnhanced Weathering is a sustainable tool for CO2 Removal. The project provides significant benefits as it buildscapacity within the currently emerging research field ocean-based climate change solutions. Within this capacity,it will help to identify a sustainable and economically viable future for Australia.
