Open-Water Aquaculture on Gran Canaria Master Thesis Title: Response of Key-Species of Benthic Sub-Arctic Macrophytes to Warming jan.jacob @ awi.de Alfred Wegener Institut Am Handelshafen 12 27570 Bremerhaven [...] aims to overcome these challenges by developing novel approaches for Ulva cultivation in the open ocean using floating structures made from renewable materials. At the AWI aquaculture facilities, we are

under pressure. However, jellyfish in the world’s oceans could actually benefit from the rising water temperatures – also and especially in the Arctic Ocean, as researchers from the Alfred Wegener Institute [...] Institute have now successfully shown. In computer models, they exposed eight widespread Arctic jellyfish species to rising temperatures, sea ice retreat and other changing environmental conditions. The result: [...] triple the size of its habitat – with potentially dramatic consequences for the marine food web and Arctic fish populations. The study was just released in the journal Limnology and Oceanography.
