11 PhD students in their 3. year of DFG-Research Training Group Baltic TRANSCOAST (GRK 2000) from the University of Rostock go to the international conference Ocean Sciences Meeting 2018, Portland, USA, as part of their qualification programme in order to present their work and research results in form of posters and presentations (Sessions), accompanied by Dr. Lennartz (Spokesperson), Dr. Voß (Vice Spokesperson) and Dr. Stefan Forster from the DFG- Research Training Group Baltic TRANSCOAST of the University of Rostock.​

We are pleased that our DFG-​​Mercator Fellow Dr. Fereidoun Rezanezhad from the University of Waterloo and his colleagues (Dr. Philippe Van Cappellen, et al.)​ are also presenting joint research results in posters at OSM in Portland. ​
