Geesthacht, Schleswig-Holstein, Germany
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolCarsten Lemmen is a senior researcher and ecosystem modeler with 13+ years at Helmholtz-Zentrum Hereon, specializing in modular coupling systems for shelf and coastal seas and benthic–pelagic fluxes mediated by macrobenthos. He holds a PhD in Atmospheric Physics and an MSc in Marine Environmental Sciences, and his interdisciplinary career spans Antarctic research cruises to stratospheric chemistry forecasts and archaeological modeling of early agriculture emergence. Carsten has a track record of making modeling relevant to archaeology and human–environment dynamics through PAGES and iHOPE, and he now focuses on linking North Sea ecosystem processes with local fisheries. An experienced teacher and consultant, he lectures in physics and ecosystem modeling and advises on archaeological and social-systems modeling. Not obvious from job titles: he developed the first global model for regional emergence of early agriculture and a flexible modular coupling architecture enabling equitable integration of diverse marine models. Based in Geesthacht, Germany, he blends physics, history, and systems thinking to tackle long-term climate–culture and marine sustainability questions.
