PrimePrevention CREATE Vernetzungsworkshop

18.11.2025, 12:00 → 19.11.2025, 14:00 Europe/Berlin

5-1.214 - ATLANTIK / ATLANTIC - Linke Seite – Großer, unterteilbarer Konferenzraum (GEOMAR - Standort Ostufer / GEOMAR - East Shore)

Helmke Hepach, Mirjam Perner

This workshop intends to connect the DAM mareXtreme project PrimePrevention with the sustainMare project CREATE on the topic "Deoxygenation in the SW Baltic Sea". We invite scientists from both projects, further interested scientists outside of the projects and stakeholders to the workshop. The goal is to enhance the exchange on the specific topic of the formation of oxygen minimum events in the region but to also compare approaches with regard to stakeholder contacts, stakeholder mapping, living lab approaches etc. The participation is possible with invitation only.
