right9906000Personal DataBorn October 16, 1981 in Holstebro, Denmark.Danish citizen, registered partnership, 1 daughter.Website: elgetti.Phone: +45 9176 8585Email: Kasper.elgetti.brodersen@bio.ku.dkI am an Assistant Professor at UCPH with a strong track-record in microenvironmental and molecular studies of seagrasses. My research involves the combined use of electrochemical and fiber-optic microsensors, advanced solute imaging techniques and molecular methodology to study: (i) how marine plants alter the biogeochemical processes and chemical conditions in their rhizosphere to detoxify the surrounding sediment and mobilize essential nutrients, and (ii) how epiphytes affect the leaf microenvironment and fitness of marine plants. A major goal is to unravel how the micro-landscape of marine plants affects their fitness and acclimation/adaptation under environmental stress in the Anthropocene, and how knowledge of plant microenvironments affects seed germination to optimize seagrass habitat restoration.
