Module examination
One assessment of examination:
Portfolio: Protocol (100 %), seminar presentation (no mark)

Active participation: Active and documented participation in practical courses (labs, exercises, seminars, field trips) and courses. These include e.g. the delivery of exercises, writing a lab report or seminar presentations according to the advice of the course supervisor.
 
Skills to be acquired in this module
The students know how to take samples from marine habitats and characterise those biogeochemically and microbiologically. Furthermore, students learn to collect and analyse porewater, determine total cell counts and quantify groups of organisms by molecular methods. Also cultivation of different physiological groups of bacteria will be performed. Finally, scientific results will be presented by the students in a seminar presentation and discussed in a scientific protocol.
