Indoor – Pelagic/Benthic – Marine/Brackish
Indoor (air-conditioned rooms) infrastructure consisting of 12 independent 600 liter tanks. Based on a computer controlled system, artificial fluctuations of diverse parameters can be simulated in through-flowing seawater
temperature, salinity, pH and irradiation (oxygen in progress)
Variability impacts from: temperature, salinity, pH and irradiation (oxygen in progress) – from single species to communities
fluctuation scearios in flow through systems
12 independent experimental units (infinite subunits in these tanks), heaters, coolers, automated, heat exchangers, internal circulation, flow through system, programmable climate simulation
