      Schlegel, Robert; Bartsch, Inka; Bischof, Kai; Bjørst, Lill Rastad; Dannevig, Halvor; Diehl, Nora; Duarte, Pedro; Hovelsrud, Grete Kaare; Juul-Pedersen, Thomas; Lebrun, Anaïs; Merillet, Laurene; Miller, Cale; Ren, Carina; Sejr, Mikael; Søreide, Janne; Vonnahme, Tobias R.; Gattuso, Jean-Pierre (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Fjord systems are transition zones between land and sea, resulting in complex and dynamic environments. They are of particular interest in the Arctic as they harbour ecosystems inhabited by a rich range of species and ...
    • Effects of life-history traits and network topological characteristics on the robustness of marine food webs 

      Merillet, Laurene; Robert, Marianne; Hernvann, Pierre-Yves; Pecuchet, Laurene; Pavoine, Sandrine; Mouchet, Maud; Primicerio, Raul; Kopp, Dorothée (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Management targets for biodiversity preservation are shifting from individual species to an ecosystem-wide focus. Indeed, the perturbation analysis of interaction networks, such as food webs, better captures the response ...
    • Fish Assemblages of a Sub-Arctic Fjord Show Early Signals of Climate Change Response Contrary to the Benthic Assemblages 

      Merillet, Laurene; Skogen, Morten D.; Vikebø, Frode Bendiksen; Jørgensen, Lis Lindal (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Arctic benthic ecosystems are facing high-speed environmental changes, such as decreased sea ice coverage, increased temperature and precipitations, as well as the invasion by non-indigenous species. Few sub-arctic fjords ...
