Comment(s)
The marine world and nature, in general, have always fascinated me. I am currently studying the relationship between climate change and marine organisms, predominantly focusing on regime shifts and plankton time series.
Plankton are important for healthy marine ecosystems and I feel are an important environmental indicator of global change.
During my next future, I would like to focus on: network analysis, food-web analysis, and ecosystem evaluation in economic terms.
In addition to studying, I have practical scientific skills trough internships and volunteering in order to strengthen my skills to enhance my scientific career.
