The SPYCLING project studies nitrogen cycling in various sponge species to understand their ecological role in marine environments. It combines lab experiments and advanced genetic techniques to uncover the historical and current impacts of sponges on nitrogen processes.
Sponges are the oldest metazoans on our planet and can be found in all aquatic environments, from canals in Dutch medieval towns to deep-sea trenches.
Nevertheless, we lack a deep understanding of nitrogen (N) cycling processes in sponges from different taxonomic classes.
In fact, glass sponges (class Hexactinellida) I collected in the abyssal Central Pacific have a bulk δ15N signal which is inconsistent with their feeding type and trophic level.
Due to the large biomass that sponges reach at so…
