MJESTO RADA
Laboratorij za mikrobiologiju, Znanstvena savjetnica
PODRUČJE ZNANSTVENOG INTERESA
Znanstvena problematika kojom se bavim je područje morske mikrobne ekologije. Moje istraživanje usmjereno je na proučavanje ekologije prokariotskog i eukariotskog planktona (strukture i funkcije zajednice) u različitim prirodnim i eksperimentalnim uvjetima, te na različitim prostornim i vremenskim skalama. U posljednje vrijeme bavim se problematikom utjecaja globalnog klimatskog zatopljenja na mikrobnu hranidbenu mrežu.
