Plankton is crucial for the climate - but marine research is expensive & often far removed from the public eye. How can we encourage greater participation? Leonie Dziomba presented her research on this topic at “Wissen um 11” at Haus der Wissenschaft in Bremen.More: leibniz-zmt.de #ZMT
The 7th ZMT Annual Conference (ZAC) took place last week, combining poster presentations with new formats in 2026. Highlights included a Research Data Service icebreaker and the session “Failing Forward” on learning from research challenges. #ZMT #ZAC #LeibnizGemeinschaft #ScientificExchange
Tomorrow, 5.2. at 20:30 (CET), our colleague Tim Jennerjahn will speak at Science for the Living Room (Wissenschaft fürs Wohnzimmer) about the Source-to-Sea approach to sustainable water management & why land and ocean must be considered together. Includes also a live Q&A. #ZMT #AWIs4Future
How do corals feed? The energy suply from ingested food has been underestimated. Corals gain energy through photosynthesis and plankton. A study by Connor Love & #ZMT highlights this for reef resilience under climate change. © Marleen Stuhr & ZMT
Last week, we introduced 12th-grade students from Kurt-Schumacher-Allee School to "research with smartphones" using current mangrove studies. Many thanks to all participants & colleagues for their great support! #ZMT #Mangroves #STEM #ScienceEducation #LeibnizCommunity #CoastalResearch
On Tuesday, 4 Nov at 5 p.m., the Haus der Wissenschaft opens its new exhibition on Bremen’s scientific landscape. The ZMT contributes a coral reef simulation model that illustrates how small environmental changes can have major impacts on marine ecosystems. #ZMT #HausderWissenschaft #BremenScience

Estradivari from #ZMT published a Nature commentary on #MPAs. 90 % allow fishing; 1/3 even destructive. UN High Seas Treaty 2026 is a chance for real protection. Fishing must follow standards that safeguard biodiversity. © Imaniar Pratiwi/PADMI Foundation #MPAs #OceanProtection #ZMT
Our colleague Moise Leance Sagbohan presented ZMT’s research on climate change and biodiversity at a workshop in Brazil, focusing on Amazonian countries’ vulnerability and readiness. The event led to a collaborative open letter to #COP30. Thanks to all involved! #ZMT
The 5th anniversary of the Climate Festival in Neue Vahr was a great opportunity to connect with the local community. Our colleague Achim Meyer represented Hashtag#ZMT and met Kathrin Moosdorf, Die Senatorin für Umwelt, Klima und Wissenschaft, who gave a welcoming speech. #ZMT #ClimateAction
Day 2 @ #TropEcS-Symposium – Coupling Components: How to link ocean, atmosphere, land, ecosystems & biogeochemistry in Earth system models? Talks on coastal dynamics, land-sea fluxes, biosphere interactions & food webs showed the need for connected modelling. #TropEcS2025 #ZMT
The #TropEcS Symposium brings together 100+ experts, early career researchers & partners from Germany and the tropics to explore how to better integrate tropical coasts into Earth system models - key for climate insights & policy. More: zac.leibniz-zmt.de/tropecs/ #ZMT #TropEcS
Congratulations to Dr. Lucy Atieno on her PhD defense at ZMT! Her work on tourism, gender & climate change on Kenya’s coast highlights why local and gendered voices must guide just, sustainable coastal futures. Wishing her all the best! #ZMT #PhDDefense #MarineScience #CoastalTourism
Twelve participants train at ZMT’s Scientific Diving Course, learning scientific diving skills. Trainee Konrad: „Rather take your time, before rushing into it. Be quick, but don’t hurry. “ Graduates are certified as “German Scientific Diver” and “European Scientific Diver.” #ZMT #ScientificDiving

Well done Dr. Guilherme Abuchahla! His PhD explored links between mangroves and land ecosystems in Brazil and Senegal. Using advanced lab methods, his research supports better understanding and management of coastal environments. All the best, Guilherme! #ZMT #PhDDefense #Küstenökosysteme #Mangroves
ZMT now hosts two Dadant US hives with gentle Buckfast bees from England. Beekeeper Dr. Sascha Bade moved them 3 km from their original site so they could settle well. As winter nears, each hive needs 15 kg of honey. Thanks to Elke Kasper for the connection. #ZMT
