Klara Wolf

Dr. Klara Wolf is a Researcher at the Alfred Wegener Institute's Department of Marine Biogeochemistry. Her work focuses on Arctic and marine ecosystems, with particular emphasis on benthic ecology, particle fluxes, and climate-relevant gases. She has contributed to major expeditions like MOSAiC (PS122) and studies on Arctic food web dynamics. Her research integrates field observations, laboratory analyses, and data-driven modeling to address climate change impacts on marine systems.

Research interests include polar biological oceanography, zooplankton energetics, and mesopelagic fisheries potential. She collaborates on international projects such as EU-PolarNet, contributing to long-term Arctic observations and interdisciplinary studies. Her work bridges environmental science, marine biology, and geochemistry to understand Earth system interactions.

Dr. Wolf’s publications explore Arctic fish diets, zooplankton energy content, and light dynamics in fjords. She actively participates in data management initiatives through platforms like PANGAEA, ensuring open access to georeferenced datasets. Her expertise spans Arctic ecology, marine biogeochemical cycles, and sustainable resource assessment.
