The mercury science-policy interface: History, evolution and progress of the Minamata Convention
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Mercury (Hg) pollution is an important environmental and public health issue that has garnered significant interest from policy makers and the global regulatory community. Consumption of seafood is the primary mechanism ... -
Meroplankton Diversity, Seasonality and Life-History Traits Across the Barents Sea Polar Front Revealed by High-Throughput DNA Barcoding
(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 ... -
Mesopelagic fish gas bladder elongation, as estimated from wideband acoustic backscattering measurements
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Backscattered acoustic energy from a target varies with frequency and carries information about its material properties, size, shape, and orientation. Gas-bearing organisms are strong reflectors of acoustic energy at the ... -
Mesopelagic flesh shear viscosity estimation from in situ broadband backscattering measurements by a viscous–elastic model inversion
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)In fisheries acoustics, target strength (TS) is a key parameter in converting acoustic measurements to biological information such as biomass. Modelling is a versatile tool to estimate TS of marine organisms. For swimbladdered ... -
Mesopelagic Species and Their Poential Contribution to Food and Feed Security - A Case Study from Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The projected increase in global population will demand a major increase in global food production. There is a need for more biomass from the ocean as future food and feed, preferentially from lower trophic levels. In this ... -
Mesoscale Eddies Are Oases for Higher Trophic Marine Life
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012-01-07) -
A meta-analysis on the nutritional value of insects in aquafeeds
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)A major challenge for development of sustainable aquafeeds is its dependence on fish meal and fish oil. Similarly, it is unwanted to include more plant ingredients which adds more pressure on resources like arable land, ... -
Metabarcoding as a tool to enhance marine surveillance of nonindigenous species in tropical harbors: A case study in Tahiti
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Globalization has increased connectivity between countries enhancing the spread of marine nonindigenous species (NIS). The establishment of marine NIS shows substantial negative effects on the structure and functioning of ... -
Metabolic and molecular signatures of improved growth in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) fed surplus levels of methionine, folic acid, vitamin B6 and B12 throughout smoltification.
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)A moderate surplus of the 1C nutrients methionine, folic acid, vitamin B6 and B12 above dietary recommendations for Atlantic salmon has shown to improve growth and reduce hepatosomatic index in the on-growing salt water ... -
Metabolic effects of diet containing blue mussel (Mytilus edulis) and blue mussel-fed salmon in a mouse model of obesity
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Alternative feed ingredients for farmed salmon are warranted due to increasing pressure on wild fish stocks. As locally farmed blue mussels may represent an environmentally sustainable substitute with a lower carbon ... -
The metabolic rate response to feed withdrawal in Atlantic salmon post-smolts
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Feed withdrawal is a widespread practice in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) aquaculture to empty the gut prior to major farming operations, while certain pathogens and suboptimal environmental conditions in production cages ... -
Metabolic rates, swimming capabilities, thermal niche and stress response of the lumpfish, cyclopterus lumpus
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)Metabolic rates, swimming capabilities, thermal niche and stress response of the lumpfish, cyclopterus lumpus -
Metagenome-wide association of gut microbiome features for schizophrenia
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Evidence is mounting that the gut-brain axis plays an important role in mental diseases fueling mechanistic investigations to provide a basis for future targeted interventions. However, shotgun metagenomic data from ... -
Metal Contents in Fish from the Bay of Bengal and Potential Consumer Exposure—The EAF-Nansen Programme
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Fish represent an important part of the Sri Lankan and Bangladeshi diet. However, fish is also a source of contaminants that may constitute a health risk to consumers. The aim of this study was to analyse the contents of ... -
Methane cycling within sea ice: Results from drifting ice during late spring, north of Svalbard
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Summer sea ice cover in the Arctic Ocean has declined sharply during the last decades, leading to changes in ice structures. The shift from thicker multi-year ice to thinner first-year ice changes the methane storage ... -
Methane release from open leads and new ice following an Arctic winter storm event
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)We examine an Arctic winter storm event, which led to ice break–up, the formation of open leads, and the subsequent freezing of these leads. The methane (CH4) concentration in under–ice surface water before and during the ... -
Methionine: An Indispensable Amino Acid in Cellular Metabolism and Health of Atlantic Salmon
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Methionine is an indispensable amino acid with an important role as the main methyl donor in cellular metabolism for both fish and mammals. Metabolization of methionine to the methyl donor S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) has ... -

Micro- and macro-habitat selection of Atlantic salmon, (Salmo salar), post-smolts in relation to marine environmental cues
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Atlantic salmon is an economically and culturally important species. The species encounters several natural and man-made threats during its migration between fresh water and the ocean, which in combination may explain its ...
