Biodiversity and distribution of the deep-sea fauna in the Sea of Japan and in the Kuril-Kamchatka Trench area with focus on Isopoda as a model organism
The aim of this dissertation is to analyze the diversity and distribution of the deep-sea fauna of the Northwest Pacific, more specifically the Sea of Japan and the abyssal plain adjacent to the Kuril-Kamchatka Trench. Deep-sea benthic structure of both areas is analyzed at higher taxonomic level an...

The aim of this dissertation is to analyze the diversity and distribution of the deep-sea fauna of the Northwest Pacific, more specifically the Sea of Japan and the abyssal plain adjacent to the Kuril-Kamchatka Trench. Deep-sea benthic structure of both areas is analyzed at higher taxonomic level and in greater detail exemplarily for isopods at species and population level. The main focus herein lies on the diversity recorded for each of the areas and the comparison between both. Two deep-sea expeditions were conducted in order to obtain samples from the Sea of Japan and the Kuril-Kamchatka Trench with the Russian research vessel Akademik M. A. Lavrentyev in 2010 (Sea of Japan Biodiversity Studies; SoJaBio) and the German research vessel Sonne in 2012 (Kuril-Kamchatka Biodiversity Studies; KuramBio), respectively. Additionally, samples from the Kuril-Kamchatka Trench area, conducted with the Russian research vessel Vityaz in the 1950s, were used for further comparisons.
