Our new paper is out in @SciReports We show that microbial communities on individual sand grains create anoxic #microenvironments—enhancing nitrogen loss even in oxygenated coastal #sediments doi.org/10.1038/s41598… #NitrogenCycle #MarineScience @MarineMicrobio @BiogeoMPIBremen

Excited to share I’ve been invited to speak at the 16th European #NitrogenFixation Conference #ENFC2025 in Oxford — Symposium on Biological Nitrogen Fixation with Non-Legumes (Satellite Meeting). Looking forward to connecting and sharing our work! #Microbiology @BiogeoMPIBremen
Impact of tiny anoxic pockets in #Nitrogen loss on sandy shores!! Our newly developed #microfluidic method revealed #microorganisms on sand grains create anoxic microenvironments allowing #denitrification in well-oxygenated sands mpi-bremen.de/en/Nitrogen-lo… nature.com/articles/s4159…

Excited to share our latest publication in @SciReports! We show how microbial activity creates anoxic #microenvironments on individual sand grains, driving nitrogen loss in well-oxygenated coastal #sediments. doi.org/10.1038/s41598… #Biogeochemistry #MarineMicrobiology
