Suspension-feeding benthic species’ physiological and microbiome response to salmon farming and associated environmental changes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Caged salmon farming is increasingly undertaken in water bodies with strong hydrodynamics where hard and mixed substrate habitats are more prevalent. Yet, these structurally complex and heterogeneous habitats support diverse ... -
Temporal Variability of Co-Occurring Calanus finmarchicus and C. helgolandicus in Skagerrak
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The congeneric copepods Calanus finmarchicus and C. helgolandicus co-occur in the northern North Sea and Skagerrak where they play important roles as prey for higher trophic levels. This study analyses a 26-year time series ... -
The abundance of kelp is modified by the combined impact of depth, waves and currents
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)This study analyses the combined impact of two types of ocean water flow, wave exposure and ocean currents, on kelp Laminaria hyperborea abundance, taking other environmental co-variables into account. The dataset covers ... -
The Northeast Greenland shelf as a potential habitat for the Northeast Arctic cod
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017) -
The UN decade of ocean science for sustainable development
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Our civilization needs a clean, resilient, productive, safe, well-observed, documented and predicted ocean. “The ocean we need for the future we want” was the motto of the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission proposal ... -
Tidewater glaciers and bedrock characteristics control the phytoplankton growth environment in a fjord in the arctic
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Meltwater discharge from tidewater glaciers impacts the adjacent marine environment. Due to the global warming, tidewater glaciers are retreating and will eventually terminate on land. Yet, the mechanisms through which ... -
Tidewater glaciers as “climate refugia” for zooplankton-dependent food web in Kongsfjorden, Svalbard
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)With climate warming, many tidewater glaciers are retreating. Fresh, sediment-rich sub-glacial meltwater is discharged at the glacier grounding line, where it mixes with deep marine water resulting in an upwelling of a ... -
Toward a coordinated global observing system for marine macrophytes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)In coastal waters around the world, the dominant primary producers are benthic macrophytes, including seagrasses and macroalgae, that provide habitat structure and food for diverse and abundant biological communities and ... -
Two decades of match-mismatch in Northeast Arctic cod – Feeding conditions and survival
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The successful recruitment of Northeast Arctic (NEA) cod is thought to depend on sufficient and suitable prey for the newly hatched larvae, in particular the nauplii stages of the lipid-rich calanoid copepod species Calanus ... -

Uptake of sympagic organic carbon by the Barents Sea benthos linked to sea ice seasonality
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)On Arctic shelves, where primary production occurs in both the pelagic and sympagic (ice-associated) habitats, sympagic organic material (OM) can constitute a disproportionate fraction of benthic diets due to higher sinking ... -
Using propagules to restore coastal marine ecosystems
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020) -
Valuing blue carbon changes in the Arctic ocean
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The ocean capacity to store carbon is crucial, and currently absorbs about 25% CO2 supply to the atmosphere. The ability to store carbon has an economic value, but such estimates are not common for ocean environments, and ... -
Variability of Sea-Air Carbon Dioxide Flux in Autumn Across the Weddell Gyre and Offshore Dronning Maud Land in the Southern Ocean
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Sea surface fugacity of carbon dioxide (fCO2ssw) was measured across the Weddell gyre and the eastern sector in the Atlantic Southern Ocean in autumn. During the occupation between February and April 2019, the region of ... -
Why and How is Burrow Ventilation Initiated? A Case Study of Polychaete Behavior in the Burrow at Different Temperatures
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Bioirrigation is a process corresponding to animal-induced transport of porewater solute or exchange between interstitial and overlying waters. How and why the burrowing macrobenthos complete this process remain unclear. ... -
Wind Intensity Is Key to Phytoplankton Spring Bloom Under Climate Change
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The onset of the spring bloom (OSB) occurs when phytoplankton growth exceeds losses and is promoted by a transition from deep convection to a shallow mixing layer concurrent with increasing light intensities in nutrient-enriched ... -
Winning ways with hydrogen sulphide on the Namibian shelf
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The shelf sediments off Namibia are some of the most unusual and extreme marine habitats because of their extremely high hydrogen sulphide concentrations. High surface productivity of the northern Benguela upwelling system ... -
Zoantharians (Hexacorallia: Zoantharia) associated with cold-water corals in the azores region: New species and associations in the deep sea
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Zoantharians are a group of cnidarians that are often found in association with marine invertebrates, including corals, in shallow and deep-sea environments. However, little is known about deep-sea zoantharian taxonomy, ...
