• The Influence of Sea Ice Cover and Atlantic Water Advection on Annual Particle Export North of Svalbard 

      Dybwad, Christine Schumann; Lalande, Catherine; Bodur, Yasemin V.; Henley, Sean; Cottier, Finlo Robert; Ershova, Elizaveta; Hobbs, Laura; Last, Kim S.; Dabrowska, Anna Maria; Reigstad, Marit (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      The Arctic Ocean north of Svalbard has recently experienced large sea ice losses and the increasing prominence of Atlantic water (AW) advection. To investigate the impact of these ongoing changes on annual particle export, ...
    • Meroplankton Diversity, Seasonality and Life-History Traits Across the Barents Sea Polar Front Revealed by High-Throughput DNA Barcoding 

      Descoteaux, Raphaelle; Ershova, Elizaveta; Wangensteen, Owen S.; Præbel, Kim; Renaud, Paul Eric; Cottier, Finlo Robert; Bluhm, Bodil (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      In many species of marine benthic invertebrates, a planktonic larval phase plays a critical role in dispersal. Very little is known about the larval biology of most species, however, in part because species identification ...
    • Model-informed classification of broadband acoustic backscatter from zooplankton in an in situ mesocosm 

      Dunn, Muriel Barbara; McGowan-Yallop, Chelsey; Pedersen, Geir; Falk-Petersen, Stig; Daase, Malin Hildegard Elisabeth; Last, Kim; Langbehn, Tom; Fielding, Sophie; Brierley, Andrew S.; Cottier, Finlo Robert; Basedow, Sünnje Linnéa; Camus, Lionel; Geoffroy, Maxime (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Classification of zooplankton to species with broadband echosounder data could increase the taxonomic resolution of acoustic surveys and reduce the dependence on net and trawl samples for ‘ground truthing’. Supervised ...
