Baleen whale distributions and prey associations in the Barents Sea
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011-03-28)We investigated the spatial associations between minke Balaenoptera acutorostrata, fin B. physalus and humpback Megaptera novaeangliae whales and their prey in the Barents Sea in late summer of 2003 to 2007. During these ... -
Catchability of pelagic trawls for sampling deep-living nekton in the mid-North Atlantic
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010-06-29)Material collected in summer 2004 from the Mid-Atlantic Ridge between Iceland and the Azores with three pelagic trawls was used to estimate relative catchabilities of common fish, cephalopod, decapod, and jellyfish species. ... -
Coastal water darkening and implications for mesopelagic regime shifts in Norwegian fjords
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2009-07-28)The light regime of the water column has a strong structuring effect on aquatic food webs and it has been previously hypothesized that coastal water darkening has increased the success of tactile predators relative to ... -
Heat content in the Norwegian Sea, 1995–2010
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012-02-26)Spatio-temporal hydrographic data from the Nordic Seas during spring over the period 1995–2010 were investigated in terms of the relative heat content (RHC) above the density surface σt = 27.9, chosen to capture the changes ... -
Ocean Acoustic Waveguide Remote Sensing (OAWRS) of marine ecosystems
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2009-12-03)Ocean Acoustic Waveguide Remote Sensing (OAWRS) has recently been shown to be capable of instantaneously imaging and continuously monitoring fish populations over continental shelf-scale areas, covering thousands of km2. ... -
Pathways between Primary Production and Fisheries Yields of Large Marine Ecosystems
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012-01-20)The shift in marine resource management from a compartmentalized approach of dealing with resources on a species basis to an approach based on management of spatially defined ecosystems requires an accurate accounting of ... -

Synthesizing lessons learned from comparing fisheries production in 13 northern hemisphere ecosystems: emergent fundamental features
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012-07-12)Understanding the drivers of the productivity of marine ecosystems continues to be a globally important issue. A vast body of literature identifies 3 main processes that regulate the production dynamics of fisheries: ... -
The Norwegian plan for integrated ecosystem-based management of the marine environment in the Norwegian Sea
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010-11-30)A White Paper on a new integrated management plan for the Norwegian Sea was launched by the Norwegian government in May 2009. Following international guidelines for ecosystem-based management, the plan provides an overall ... -
What drives marine fisheries production?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012-07-12)This paper introduces the MEPS Theme Section (TS) ‘Comparative Analysis of Marine Fisheries Production’. The unifying theme of the studies in the TS is the relative influence of a ‘triad of drivers’—fishing, trophodynamic, ...
