Research Interests of Marco J.L. Coolen, Assistant Scientist (Marine Chemistry and Geochemistry)
Fate of nucleic acids in Quaternary lacustrine and marine sediments
Reconstruction of the ancient lacustrine and marine microbial diversity and climate-induced changes of paleoenvironments based on the combined stratigraphic analysis of preserved genes (paleogenomics) and traditional proxies (lipid biomarkers and microfossils)
Application of molecular biological tools to study past and contemporary metabolic processes in lacustrine and marine Quaternary environments as well as the prokaryotes involved in these processes
Microbial diversity and processes in stratified systems
