Working in this research group is an excellent opportunity to learn about ways of analysing these climate change impacts. Not on one kind of species, but rather on an ecological community. My area of research is the correlation between the direct impacts of climate extremes on the seagrass <em>Zostera marina<\/em>and the grazing behaviour of the marine snail <em>Rissoa membranacea, <\/em>typical members of Baltic Sea habitats. We address in particular, how physiology of seagrass and grazing intensity of the snails are affected during heatwaves and hypoxic upwelling events? The answers to these questions can provide further pieces in the puzzle of the impact of climatic changes in marine ecosystems, helping to create a bigger picture of the developments in the near future.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-536 \" src=\"http:\/\/pansch-research.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/20190812_182146-e1566508242957-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"440\" height=\"587\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pansch-research.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/20190812_182146-e1566508242957-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/pansch-research.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/20190812_182146-e1566508242957-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/pansch-research.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/20190812_182146-e1566508242957.jpg 1944w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 440px) 85vw, 440px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My Name is Sean Kearney, currently doing a Bachelors\u2019 Degree in Biology at Christian-Albrechts-University in Kiel.
