Arctic marine forest distribution models showcase potentially severe habitat losses for cryophilic species under climate change
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The Arctic is among the fastest-warming areas of the globe. Understanding the impact of climate change on foundational Arctic marine species is needed to provide insight on ecological resilience at high latitudes. Marine ... -
A century of fish growth in relation to climate change, population dynamics and exploitation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Marine ecosystems, particularly in high‐latitude regions such as the Arctic, have been significantly affected by human activities and contributions to climate change. Evaluating how fish populations responded to past changes ... -
Climate change opens new frontiers for marine species in the Arctic: Current trends and future invasion risks
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Climate change and increased anthropogenic activities are expected to elevate the potential of introducing nonindigenous species (NIS) into the Arctic. Yet, the knowledge base needed to identify gaps and priorities for NIS ... -
Homogenization and miniaturization of habitat structure in temperate marine forests
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Humans are rapidly transforming the structural configuration of the planet's ecosystems, but these changes and their ecological consequences remain poorly quantified in underwater habitats. Here, we show that the loss of ... -
Multi-decadal environmental change in the Barents Sea recorded by seal teeth
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Multiple environmental forcings, such as warming and changes in ocean circulation and nutrient supply, are affecting the base of Arctic marine ecosystems, with cascading effects on the entire food web through bottom-up ... -
Multi-decadal trends in biomarkers in harp seal teeth from the North Atlantic reveal the influence of prey availability on seal trophic position
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Arctic food webs are being impacted by borealisation and environmental change. To quantify the impact of these multiple forcings, it is crucial to accurately determine the temporal change in key ecosystem metrics, such as ... -
Non‐linearity in interspecific interactions in response to climate change: cod and haddock as an example
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Climate change has profound ecological effects, yet our understanding of how trophic interactions among species are affected by climate change is still patchy. The sympatric Atlantic haddock and cod are co‐occurring across ... -
Novel feeding interactions amplify the impact of species redistribution on an Arctic food web
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Species are redistributing globally in response to climate warming, impacting ecosystem functions and services. In the Barents Sea, poleward expansion of boreal species and a decreased abundance of Arctic species are causing ... -
The rise of a marine generalist predator and the fall of beta diversity
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Determining the importance of physical and biological drivers in shaping biodiversity in diverse ecosystems remains a global challenge. Advancements have been made towards this end in large marine ecosystems with several ... -
Sea ice decline drives biogeographical shifts of key Calanus species in the central Arctic Ocean
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)In recent decades, the central Arctic Ocean has been experiencing dramatic decline in sea ice coverage, thickness and extent, which is expected to have a tremendous impact on all levels of Arctic marine life. Here, we ... -
Spatial variability of the plankton trophic interaction in the North Sea: a new feature after the early 1970s
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011-08-24)Traditionally, marine ecosystem structure was thought to be bottom-up controlled. In recent years, a number of studies have highlighted the importance of top-down regulation. Evidence is accumulating that the type of trophic ... -
Successive extreme climatic events lead to immediate, large-scale, and diverse responses from fish in the Arctic
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The warming trend of the Arctic is punctuated by several record-breaking warm years with very low sea ice concentrations. The nature and reversibility of marine ecosystem responses to these multiple extreme climatic events ... -
A warmer environment can reduce sociability in an ectotherm
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The costs and benefits of being social vary with environmental conditions, so individuals must weigh the balance between these trade-offs in response to changes in the environment. Temperature is a salient environmental ...
