Benjamin Ankiri, a first-year Master\u2019s degree student supervised by Prof. Barak Herut and Dr. Eyal Rahav, takes part in a joint sailing of the Eastern Mediterranean Sea Centre \u2013 An Early-Warning Model-System for our Future Ocean. It is an international partnership between the Charney School of Marine Sciences, University of Haifa, led by Prof. Ilana Berman-Frank, and the GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research in Kiel, Germany, led by Prof. Eric Achterberg.<\/p>

\u201cMy Master\u2019s research includes sampling the air and dyeing the samples to see which of the bacteria collected in the air are alive, and which are dead. The research cruise in which I participated was a perfect continuation of this work\u201d, Benjamin says. \u201cDuring the sailing, I continued the sampling; I also detected where the collected bacteria came from and took genetics and nutrients tests, which are critical for my research\u201d.<\/p>

Apart from Benjamin, Haifa\u2019s team included Prof. Yizhaq Makovsky, Prof. Barak Herut, Dr. Tamar Guy-Haim (Israel Oceanographic and Limnological Research), Dr. Or Bialik, Dr. Henriette Wilkins, and students Tom Reich, Merav Gilboa, Alon Blachinsky, and Winnie Bett. \u201cIt was an absolute honor for me to be a part of such team of professionals\u201d, Benjamin admits. \u201cI enjoyed exploring climate change’s impact on the oceans and navigating their future. Plus, this research cruise perfectly fit my hobby \u2013 I am a skipper and sail with my friends in my free time\u201d.<\/p>

However, open-air projects and interesting projects are not the only things Benjamin loves about the Department of Marine Geosciences. \u201cI just love the Department community and the diversity among students \u2013 both in terms of scientific, social, and national background. I have heard a phrase once that perfectly describes such situation: our differences make our strength. So the Department is such a successful research and academic body exactly because it consists of such different people\u201d.<\/p>

Benjamin loves being in this community so much that he even contemplates continuing his studies beyond the Master\u2019s level, planning to apply for a PhD position.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Parth Shah, a PhD student supervised by Prof. Nicolas Waldmann, is a multi-award-winning scientist who presented his research at various scientific conferences and published papers in peer-reviewed journals. In his studies, he aims to reconstruct centennial-scale climate variability, and in his spare time, he prefers to combine hobbies and science. In the future, Parth is planning to pursue postdoctoral studies under the guidance of his current supervisor.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\tRead More >>\t\t<\/a>\n\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/article>\n\t\t\t\t
