Welcome to the website of the Finnish Phytoplankton Society!

The Finnish Phytoplankton Society was founded in 2007. The society organises training courses twice a year. The purpose of the society is:

  • to promote and maintain knowledge of phytoplankton species
  • to develop methods for phytoplankton analysis
  • to develop and maintain cooperation between national and foreign phytoplankton experts.

Joining the society

Membership of the Society is open to all individuals and communities interested in or studying phytoplankton. You can also support our activities by becoming a sustaining member with a contribution of your choice. You can join by contacting the secretary of the Finnish Phytoplankton Society (see contact details) and sending the following membership form here (in Finnish).

The membership fee is EUR 20 for full members, EUR 10 for student members and pensioners and EUR 100 for community members. A community member may register three persons who may participate in the Society’s events at the membership fee.
