      The Barents Sea ecosystem components and services are under pressure from climate change and other anthropogenic impacts. Following an Ecosystem-based management approach, multiple simultaneous pressures are addressed by ...
    • Overexploitation, Recovery, and Warming of the Barents Sea Ecosystem During 1950–2013 

      Pedersen, Torstein; Mikkelsen, Nina; Lindstrøm, Ulf; Renaud, Paul Eric; Nascimento, Marcela C.; Blanchet, Marie-Anne; Ellingsen, Ingrid H.; Jørgensen, Lis L.; Blanchet, Hugues (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      The Barents Sea (BS) is a high-latitude shelf ecosystem with important fisheries, high and historically variable harvesting pressure, and ongoing high variability in climatic conditions. To quantify carbon flow pathways ...
    • Predation on early life stages is decisive for year-class strength in the Barents Sea capelin (Mallotus villosus) stock 

      Gjøsæter, Harald; Hallfredsson, Elvar H.; Mikkelsen, Nina; Bogstad, Bjarte; Pedersen, Torstein (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-10-11)
      Year-class strength of Barents Sea capelin has been monitored closely since the early 1970s and during this ∼45 years period three short periods of almost total recruitment failure leading to three stock collapses have ...
    • Samlet påvirkning i foreslåtte særlig verdifulle og sårbare områder i norske havområder
