Isabell Schlangen

Isabell Schlangen is a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Department of Biology at the Faculty of Science, University of Southern Denmark, affiliated with Nordcee. Her work centers on marine biogeochemical processes, particularly nitrogen and methane dynamics in oceanic systems under climate change.

Education:

• Ph.D. in Natural Sciences, University of Southern Denmark (2025)

Her research spans:

• Biological Nitrogen Fixation
• Marine Biogeochemistry
• Climate Change Impacts on Ocean Ecosystems
• Microbial Ecology in Marine Systems
• Methane Cycling in Polar Regions
• Southern Ocean Dynamics

Recent publications, including her 2025 study on glacial meltwater-driven methane supersaturation in Antarctic coastal waters, reveal critical links between cryosphere changes and greenhouse gas emissions. Her methodology integrates field measurements with biogeochemical analysis across benthic-pelagic interfaces.

Scientific Awards:

• No awards mentioned in the provided information.

Dr. Schlangen contributes to the EU-funded ClimateBlue project (2025-2028) developing coastal climate adaptation strategies for the Baltic Sea region. She has no listed graduate students but participated in a citizen science course in early 2025 to enhance public engagement in environmental research.

She operates within Nordcee (Nordic Center for Earth Evolution), leveraging its interdisciplinary framework for earth system science and long-term biogeochemical cycle research.
