    Description / Table of Contents: Die Polarstern-Expedition ARK-XXII/1a-c vom 29.05. - 25.07.2007 (Bremerhaven - Tromsø - Longyearbyen - Tromsø) stellte einen Beitrag zu dem von der EU geförderten Integrated Project HERMES (Hotspot Ecosystem Research on the Margins of European Seas) dar, in dem marine Ökosysteme der Tiefsee entlang des europäischen Kontinentalrandes erforscht werden. Dabei werden ausgewählte, verschiedenartige Ökosysteme von Spitzbergen im Norden entlang des norwegischen Kontinentalrandes, über das Mittelmeer bis in das Schwarze Meer studiert. Der erste Arktisfahrtabschnitt der Polarsternʺ zu Beginn des IPY (International Polar Year) war in drei Unterabschnitte gegliedert, um so Untersuchungen an vier Ökosystemtypen entlang des nördlichen europäischen Kontinentalrandes durchzuführen. Ein besonderer Schwerpunkt lag dabei auf sogenannten hot spotsʺ, stark physikalisch kontrollierten Systemen, die zudem durch vergleichsweise dynamische geologische und/oder hydrologische Randbedingungen, wie zum Beispiel instabile Kontinentalhänge, Tiefseegräben, Tiefwasserkorallen, kalte Sickerstellen oder sauerstofffreie, von Bakterien besiedelten Lebensgemeinschaften geprägt sind...
