Senckenberg am Meer, Wilhelmshaven & Hamburg

Library Senckenberg Wilhelmshaven

Marine Research Division


The library is a scientific reference library with a focus on marine geology and marine biology. The inventory comprises approx. 3 450 book titles, 500 maps and 250 journals and series, and approx. 26 000 separate prints. Archive material from estates is incorporated into the inventory. The main task is to provide the staff of SaM with literature. We do not take part in interlibrary loan.

Our library is connected to WIFI (Wilhelmshaven Fachinformationseinrichtungen und wissenschaftliche Bibliotheken) and to AmB (German Association of Marine Science Libraries and Information Centers) and also to the Senckenberg working group Libraries and Exchange of Publications.

The stock of Marine Research Division includes approx. 3,100 book titles, 420 maps, 330 journals and series as well as approx. 21,500 reprints.

The DZMB’s stock includes around 400 books / monographs and around 2,800 reprints. With approx. 23,000 titles, the Monoculus Library is one of the largest collections of literature in the world on the subject of copepods.

Archival material from bequests is incorporated into the library holdings.

The library has permanent access to Senckenberg licences and the DFG national licenses. Interlibrary loans are made through the GBV. The electronic recording of the library stock is done with JabRef: an open source bibliography reference manager.

The use for external users is possible after registering by telephone. Guided tours through the library are only possible by prior arrangement.

Functions within Senckenberg:

  • Director of SaM
  • Head of Division Marine Geology (SaM)
  • Speaker of RA 4.1: Evolving Earth and Environment

Research profile

  • Non-tropical biosedimentary systems
  • Cold-water coral ecosystems
  • Bioerosion
  • Paleoecology

Research interests

My research focuses on geobiological studies of recent and fossil cold-water corals, with a focus on occurrences along the increasingly oxygen-poor upwelling areas of West Africa (Mauritania and Angola-Namibia). Another topic is research on the quantitative degradation of carbonate by biological processes (bioerosion). Finally, we are developing a global database on habitat-forming cold-water coral and associated communities across all phyla. In this database, the current state of knowledge of the composition of the reef inhabitants from the unicellular organisms to the fish, their geographical changes and their biological functions will be depicted for the first time.
