Atlantic salmon aquaculture is shifting toward larger cages, but the water quality implications of this shift are unknown. While larger cages could improve profitability through economies of scale, they may increase the ...

Uncertain and inaccurate estimates are a prevailing problem in stock assessment, despite increasingly sophisticated estimation methods and substantial usage of scientific and financial resources. Annual scientific surveys ...

Copepods of the genus Calanus play a key role in marine food webs as consumers of primary producers and as prey for many commercially important marine species. Within the genus, Calanus glacialis and Calanus finmarchi- cus ...

In Arctic Norway, the risk of major marine oil spills associated with increasing offshore drilling, land terminal, and maritime transport activities is a cause for concern. Intertidal and subtidal kelp and seaweed communities ...

With the increasing imperative for societies to act to curb climate change by increasing carbon stores and sinks, it has become critical to understand how organic carbon is produced, released, transformed, transported, and ...

Background The rumen microbiota provides essential services to its host and, through its role in ruminant production, contributes to human nutrition and food security. A thorough knowledge of the genetic potential of rumen ...

For visual predators, sufficient light is critical for prey detection and capture. Because light decays exponentially with depth in aquatic systems, vertical movement has become a widespread strategy among zooplankton for ...

Marine ecosystems, particularly in high‐latitude regions such as the Arctic, have been significantly affected by human activities and contributions to climate change. Evaluating how fish populations responded to past changes ...
