This study shows that #acidification increases substrate affinity in ammonia-oxidizing #microbes, partly offsetting reduced ammonia availability. Stronger responses in #archaea than #bacteria explain contrasting #ecosystem reactions.

I am so happy that our effort led by my colleague @senweitong.bsky.social is published today in Nature Communications. Working with Senwei is a wonderful experience!

This is a really interesting and appealing story about how different nitrifiers deal with the High CO2 ocean.

Enjoying reading!

🌊 In 2023, the ocean carbon sink weakened for the first time in a record-hot year 🌡️🌎
Our new study in Nature Climate Change quantifies this unexpected decline and explains how it came about. 👇

Unexpected decline in the ocean carbon sink under record-high sea surface temperatures in 2023 - Nature Climate Change
The ocean carbon sink strengthened in previous warm El Niño years due to reduced CO2 outgassing in the tropics. Here the authors show that the ocean carbon sink declined in 2023 despite record-high se...

Big smiles, high ropes, and a great send-off! We celebrated @jens-d-mueller.bsky.social's time in our group with a day in the treetops at Seilpark. 🌲💪

#EGU25 is not just about science – it's about connection. Here’s a snapshot of past and present group members reuniting (and yes, some chose to pose like the classy goat in the background 🐐🧐).
