The ICES Working Group on Oceanic Hydrography: A Bridge From In-situ Sampling to the Remote Autonomous Observation Era
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The ICES (International Council for the Exploration of the Sea) Working Group on Oceanic Hydrography (WGOH) was established in the late 1970's with the aim of gathering experts in physical oceanography to provide regular ... -
Dietary choline is related to increased risk of acute myocardial infarction in patients with stable angina pectoris
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)High plasma choline has been associated with the metabolic syndrome and risk of chronic diseases, including cardiovascular disease. However, dietary choline is not correlated with choline plasma concentrations, and there ... -
The effectiveness of hyposaline treatments against host-attached salmon lice
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Understanding how salinity affects marine parasites is vital to understanding their ecology and treatment, particularly for host-parasite systems that traverse marine and freshwater realms such as the globally important ... -
Thermal injuries in Atlantic salmon in a pilot Laboratory trial
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Thermal delousing is a new method for removing sea lice from farmed Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L). We investigated thermally-related tissue injuries in Atlantic salmon in a pilot laboratory trial to describe the acute ... -
Direct and indirect effects of sea ice cover on major zooplankton groups and planktivorous fishes in the Barents Sea
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Reductions in Arctic sea ice affect marine food webs through a multitude of direct and indirect effects. We here analysed direct, indirect, and delayed associations between winter sea ice cover and year-to-year changes in ... -
Sudden exposure to warm water causes Instant behavioural responses indicative of nociception or pain in Atlantic salmon
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Thermal treatment has become the most used delousing method in salmonid aquaculture. However, concerns have been raised about it being painful for the fish. We studied the behavioural response of Atlantic salmon acclimated ... -
Management Scenarios Under Climate Change – A Study of the Nordic and Barents Seas
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The effects of increasing fishing pressure in combination with temperature increases in the Nordic and Barents Seas have been evaluated using an end-to-end model for the area forced by a downscaled RCP 4.5 climate scenario. ... -
Marine fog inputs appear to increase methylmercury bioaccumulation in a coastal terrestrial food web
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Coastal marine atmospheric fog has recently been implicated as a potential source of ocean-derived monomethylmercury (MMHg) to coastal terrestrial ecosystems through the process of sea-to-land advection of foggy air masses ... -
Insufficient risk assessment of herbicide tolerant genetically engineered soybeans intended for import into the EU
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The introduction of herbicide-tolerant (HT) genetically engineered (GE) soybeans has raised new challenges for the European risk assessment of imported food and feed. Food and feed products derived from these plants may ... -
Development, productivity, and seasonality of living planktonic foraminiferal faunas and Limacina helicina in an area of intense methane seepage in the Barents Sea
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Although the plankton communities in the Barents Sea have been intensely studied for decades, little is known about the living planktonic foraminiferal (LPF) and pteropod faunas, especially those found at methane seep ... -
Growth and safety assessment of feed streams for black soldier fly larvae: A case study with aquaculture sludge
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The production of food is an intensive source of environmental impact. In aquaculture, one source of impact is solid waste, which contains high concentrations of minerals, other nutrients, and metals. The larvae of Hermetia ... -
Differential effects of internal tagging depending on depth treatment in Atlantic salmon: a cautionary tale for aquatic animal tag use.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Electronic tags are widespread tools for studying aquatic animal behavior; however, tags risk behavioral manipulation and negative welfare outcomes. During an experiment to test behavioral differences of Atlantic salmon ... -
Migratory passage structures at hydropower plants as potential physiological and behavioural selective agents
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Anthropogenic activities affect fish populations worldwide. River dams have profound impacts on ecosystems by changing habitats and hindering migration. In an effort to counteract such effects, a range of mitigation measures ... -
Domestication leads to increased predation susceptibilit
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Domestication involves adapting animals to the human-controlled environment. Genetic changes occurring during the domestication process may manifest themselves in phenotypes that render domesticated animals maladaptive for ... -
Does grab size influence sampled macrofauna composition? A test conducted on deep-sea communities in the northeast Atlantic
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)In deep-sea surveys, heavy gears are often preferred to effectively collect macro benthos while smaller samplers are sufficient in coastal and shallow areas. However, there are few comparative studies of the samples retained ... -
Occurrence of larval ascaridoid nematodes in the Argentinean short-finned squid Illex argentinus from the Southwest Atlantic Ocean (off Falkland Islands)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The Argentinean short-finned squid (Illex argentinus) is an oceanic, neritic species widely distributed off the east coast of South America, representing the most abundant commercially exploited squid species in these ... -
Estimating the spatial distribution of vocalizing animals from ambient sound spectra using widely spaced recorder arrays and inverse modelling
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The sound energy from marine mammal populations vocalizing over extended periods of time adds up to quasi-continuous “choruses,” which create characteristic peaks in marine sound spectra. An approach to estimate animal ... -
Overexpression of cyclooxygenase-2 in adipocytes reduces fat accumulation in inguinal white adipose tissue and hepatic steatosis in high-fat fed mice
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Cyclooxygenases are known as important regulators of metabolism and immune processes via conversion of C20 fatty acids into various regulatory lipid mediators, and cyclooxygenase activity has been implicated in browning ... -
New data on nutrient composition in large selection of commercially available seafood products and its impact on micronutrient intake
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Background: Most foods, including seafood, undergo some sort of processing as an integrated part of the global food industry. The degree of processing depends on the type of product produced. Processed seafood products are ... -
Glass eels (Anguilla anguilla) imprint the magnetic direction of tidal currents from their juvenile estuaries
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The European eel (Anguilla anguilla) hatches in the Sargasso Sea and migrates to European and North African freshwater. As glass eels, they reach estuaries where they become pigmented. Glass eels use a tidal phase-dependent ...
