Microenvironmental Ecology and Symbiosis

@microsensing.bsky.social

We study the microenvironmental ecology of microbial communities & symbiosis. We explore corals, seagrass, macroalgae, biofilms & microbes. We work across disciplines to develop and apply microscale analysis tools. Michael Kühl https://t.co/1qPNWHLjow

Moderate levels of dissolved iron stimulate cellular growth and increase lipid storage in Symbiodinium sp. Dinoflagellates in the family Symbiodiniaceae are fundamental in coral reef ecosystems and facilitate essential processes such as photosynthesis, nutrient cycling, and calcium carbonate production.
