easier to detect and measured experimentally. However, it is not well known yet how this process emerges and how one can control it. This PhD project will focus on developing the necessary theoretical

Lakes are dynamic methane sources where both benthic and pelagic processes shape net emissions. Sediments are the dominant methane producers, but growing evidence shows that phytoplankton can

affect plankton-driven processes and carbon cycling remains fragmented, with few quantitative datasets under realistic ecological conditions. This PhD project will bridge that gap by combining field
