Intra-season variations in distribution and abundance of humpback whales in the West Antarctic Peninsula using cruise vessels as opportunistic platforms
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Fine-scale knowledge of spatiotemporal dynamics in cetacean distribution and abundance throughout the Western Antarctic Peninsula (WAP) is sparse yet essential for effective ecosystem-based management (EBM). Cruise vessels ... -
Intracellular trafficking of fatty acids in the fish intestinal epithelial cell line RTgutGC
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The shift towards higher inclusion of vegetable oils (VOs) in aquafeeds has resulted in major changes in dietary fatty acid composition, especially increased amounts of monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) and decreased ... -
Introducing Aquatic Biology
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2007-10-31)The Inter-Research Science Center (IR) journals Marine Ecology Progress Series (MEPS) and Aquatic Microbial Ecology (AME) have been receiving increasing numbers of high-quality manuscripts that are principally biological, ... -
Introgression of domesticated salmon changes life history and phenology of a wild salmon population
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The release of domesticated conspecifics into the natural environment, whether deliberate or accidental, has the potential to alter the genetic integrity and evolutionary trajectory of wild populations. This widespread ... -
Invasive ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi in Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-03-18)We present data on the occurrence of the invasive ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi in Norway after the initial observations made in 2005. Our data comes from several net sampling investigations conducted along the Norwegian ... -
Inverse method applied to autonomous broadband hydroacoustic survey detects higher densities of zooplankton in near-surface aggregations than vessel-based net survey
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Throughout all oceans, aggregations of zooplankton and ichthyoplankton appear as horizontal sound scattering layers (SSLs) when detected with active acoustic techniques. Quantifying the composition and density of these ... -
Invertebrate herbivores: Overlooked allies in the recovery of degraded coral reefs?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)A key question for coral reef conservation is whether reefs dominated by macroalgae can recover. Since the near-disappearance of the herbivorous urchin Diadema antillarum in the Caribbean, a prevalent management paradigm ... -
Investigating Annual Diving Behaviour by Hooded Seals (Cystophora cristata) within the Northwest Atlantic Ocean
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013-11-25)With the exception of relatively brief periods when they reproduce and moult, hooded seals, Cystophora cristata, spend most of the year in the open ocean where they undergo feeding migrations to either recover or prepare ... -
Investigating Differences in Vigilance Tactic Use within and between the Sexes in Eastern Grey Kangaroos
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Aggregation is thought to enhance an animal’s security through effective predator detection and the dilution of risk. A decline in individual vigilance as group size increases is commonly reported in the literature and ... -
Investigating Population Genetic Structure in a Highly Mobile Marine Organism: The Minke Whale Balaenoptera acutorostrata acutorostrata in the North East Atlantic
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014-09-30)Inferring the number of genetically distinct populations and their levels of connectivity is of key importance for the sustainable management and conservation of wildlife. This represents an extra challenge in the marine ... -
Investigating the drivers of maturation dynamics in Barents Sea haddock (Melanogrammus aeglefinus)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011-08)Changes in size and age at maturation of many exploited fish stocks have been investigated and the influences of environmental factors and exploitation have often been inferred, but not explicitly investigated. Here we ... -
Investigating the frequency of triploid Atlantic salmon in wild Norwegian and Russian populations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Fish may display variations in ploidy, including three sets of chromosomes, known as triploidy. A recent study revealed a frequency of ~ 2% spontaneous (i.e., non-intentional) triploidy in domesticated Atlantic salmon ... -
Investigating the genetic structure of the parasites Anisakis pegreffii and A. berlandi (Nematoda: Anisakidae) in a sympatric area of the southern Pacific Ocean waters using a multilocus genotyping approach: first evidence of their interspecific hybridization
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The southern Pacific Ocean, off the New Zealand coast, has been reported as one sympatric area of the two parasite species Anisakis pegreffii and A. berlandi. Here, a multilocus genotyping approach, based on a panel of ... -
Investigation into the fate of C-14-labelled xenobiotics(naphthalene, phenanthrene, 2,4,5,2 ',4',5 '-hexachlorobiphenyl, octachlorostyrene) in Bermudian corals
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 1983-02-28)Uptake and elimination of 4 labelled lipid-soluble xenobiotics (naphthalene, phenanthrene, 2,4,5,2',4',5'-hexachlorobiphen(yPlC B), octachlorostyrene) were studied in 19 anthozoans and 1 hydrozoan common to Bermudian ... -
Iodine and Mercury Content in Raw, Boiled, Pan-Fried, and Oven-Baked Atlantic Cod (Gadus morhua)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)There is a lack of scientific evidence regarding the stability of iodine and mercury during cooking and processing of seafood. In this study, the iodine and mercury content were determined after thawing frozen fillets of ... -
Iodine Bioavailability and Accumulation of Arsenic and Cadmium in Rats Fed Sugar Kelp (Saccharina latissima)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Suboptimal iodine status is a prominent public health issue in several European coun-tries. Brown algae have a high iodine content that, upon intake, may exceed the recommended dietary intake level, but iodine bioavailability ... -
Iodine concentration in tap water, mineral water, and coffee
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Sufficient iodine intake is important for thyroid function and, particularly, among women of reproductive age. Water is a universal component of the diet and could be an important source of iodine. Iodine concentration in ... -
