      Video and image data are regularly used in the field of benthic ecology to document biodiversity. However, their use is subject to a number of challenges, principally the identification of taxa within the images without ...
    • Beyond the tip of the seamount: Distinct megabenthic communities found beyond the charismatic summit sponge ground on an arctic seamount (Schulz Bank, Arctic Mid-Ocean Ridge) 

      Meyer, Heidi Kristina; Davies, A.J.; Roberts, Emyr Martyn; Xavier, Joana R.; de Azevedo Ribeiro, Pedro Miguel; Glenner, Henrik; Birkely, sten richard; Rapp v/dødsbo, Hans Tore (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Our understanding of the benthic communities on arctic seamounts and descriptions of such communities in habitat classification systems are limited. In recent years, Schulz Bank (73°52′N 7°30′E), a seamount on the Arctic ...
    • Deep-sea sponge derived environmental DNA analysis reveals demersal fish biodiversity of a remote Arctic ecosystem 

      Brodnicke, Ole Bjørn; Meyer, Heidi Kristina; Busch, Kathrin; Xavier, Joana R.; Knudsen, Steen Wilhelm; Møller, Peter Daniel Rask; Hentschel, Ute Humeida; Sweet, Michael John (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      The deep-sea is vast, remote, and largely underexplored. However, methodological advances in environmental DNA (eDNA) surveys could aid in the exploration efforts, such as using sponges as natural eDNA filters for studying ...
