The experimental facility consists of 12 indoor mesocosms, so-called Planktotrons. They are custom-tailored units built of stainless steel, developed and established at the University of Oldenburg, Institute for Chemistry and Biology of the Marine Environment (ICBM) in Wilhelmshaven.

Finally the third manuscript from the 2022 Aquacosm_plus experiment from the Planktotrons @icbm-uol.bsky.social is published:

Moderate and extreme warming under a varied resource supply alter the microzooplankton–phytoplankton coupling in North Sea coastal communities

Moderate and extreme warming under a varied resource supply alter the microzooplankton–phytoplankton coupling in North Sea coastal communities
Rising temperature is one of the most visible effects of global change on Earth; however, it is barely known how moderate or extreme warming events impact the trophic interactions and the energy tran....
