• Environmental toxicology: Population modeling of cod larvae shows high sensitivity to loss of zooplankton prey 

      Stige, Leif Christian; Ottersen, Geir; Hjermann, Dag Ø.; Dalpadado, Padmini; Jensen, Louise K.; Stenseth, Nils Christian (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010-12-30)
      Two factors determine whether pollution is likely to affect a population indirectly through loss of prey: firstly, the sensitivity of the prey to the pollutants, and secondly, the sensitivity of the predator population to ...
    • Spawning stock and recruitment in North Sea cod shaped by food and climate 

      Olsen, Esben Moland; Ottersen, Geir; Llope, Marcos; Chan, Kung-Sik; Beaugrand, Grégory; Stenseth, Nils Christian (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010-09-01)
      In order to provide better fisheries management and conservation decisions, there is a need to discern the underlying relationship between the spawning stock and recruitment of marine fishes, a relationship which is ...
    • The genome sequence of Atlantic cod reveals a unique immune system 

      Star, Bastiaan; Nederbragt, Alexander J.; Jentoft, Sissel; Grimholt, Unni; Malmstrøm, Martin; Gregers, Tone F.; Rounge, Trine B.; Paulsen, Jonas; Solbakken, Monica H.; Sharma, Animesh; Wetten, Ola F.; Lanzén, Anders; Winer, Roger; Knight, James; Vogel, Jan-Hinnerk; Aken, Bronwen; Andersen, Øivind; Lagesen, Karin; Tooming-Klunderud, Ave; Edvardsen, Rolf B.; Tina, Kirubakaran G.; Espelund, Mari; Nepal, Chirag; Previti, Christopher; Karlsen, Bård Ove; Moum, Truls; Skage, Morten; Berg, Paul R.; Gjøen, Tor; Kuhl, Heiner; Thorsen, Jim; Malde, Ketil; Reinhardt, Richard; Du, Lei; Johansen, Steinar D.; Searle, Steve; Lien, Sigbjørn; Nilsen, Frank; Jonassen, Inge; Omholt, Stig W.; Stenseth, Nils Christian; Jakobsen, Kjetill S. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011-08-10)
      Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) is a large, cold-adapted teleost that sustains long-standing commercial fisheries and incipient aquaculture. Here we present the genome sequence of Atlantic cod, showing evidence for complex ...
    • Trophic interactions affecting a key ecosystem component: a multi-stage analysis of the recruitment of the Barents Sea capelin 

      Hjermann, Dag Ø.; Bogstad, Bjarte; Dingsør, Gjert Endre; Gjøsæter, Harald; Ottersen, Geir; Eikeset, Anne Maria; Stenseth, Nils Christian (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010-08-10)
      The Barents Sea stock of capelin (Mallotus villosus) has suffered three major collapses (>90% reduction) since 1985 due to recruitment failures. As capelin is a key species in the area, these population collapses have had ...
