      Strand, Espen; Broms, Cecilie Thorsen; Bagøien, Espen; Knutsen, Tor; Arnesen, Hilde; Mozfar, Bahar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      To ensure an optimal continuation of a long time series of zooplankton monitoring surveys, two types of equipment for depth-stratified mesozooplankton sampling were compared. The Institute of Marine Research (Norway) has ...
    • Comparison of visual and molecular taxonomic methods to identify ichthyoplankton in the North Sea 

      Mateos-Rivera, Alejandro; Skern-Mauritzen, Rasmus; Dahle, Geir; Sundby, Svein; Mozfar, Bahar; Thorsen, Anders; Wehde, Henning; Krafft, Bjørn Arne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      The North Sea is an important spawning and nursery ground for many demersal and pelagic fishes whose spawning areas are largely overlapping in time and space. This makes ichthyoplankton visual identification from the various ...
    • High frequency monitoring of feeding activity in benthic suspension feeders 

      Aguera, Antonio; Strohmeier, Tore; Krogness, Cathinka M.; Strand, Øivind (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Suspension feeders ecosystem role and services are mainly driven by their efficiency in clearing particles from the water column. As such there is an interest on suspension feeders feeding activity and how they interact ...
