Biography

​Felix Roßbachs main research interest focuses on benthic marine ecology especially on climate change impacts on benthic communities. His previous work focused on light acclimation in macro algae and technical approaches for subaqueous assessment of coral growth.

His research in KAUST will focus on Air-Sea CO2 fluxes above coral reefs and sea grass beds.
