MEBL in the meeting of the European Geoscience Union (Vienna, Austria)

April  2018

As it has been customary year after year, the capital of Austria hosted one of the most important events for Earth’s scientists of many areas (Biogeochemistry, Geophysics, Oceanography, etc…).

During almost a week, up to 4.776 talks and 11.128 posters were presented place in this spectacular, useful and rigorous conference. Of course, our laboratory could not miss the chance to update and share the most recent insights with other colleagues.

Three members of our research team, Prof. Alfonso Corzo, Dr. Miguel Lara and the PhD student Sara Haro flew to Vienna to attend the EGU 2018 General Assembly from the 8-13 April 2018. Presentations covered several aspects of the response of microphytobenthos to light and tidal conditions: Potential changes in the photosynthetic efficiency, the transitional effects of sediment desiccation and an innovative model of self-shading were the three topics exposed.
