Antarctic krill Euphausia superba: spatial distribution, abundance, and management of fisheries in a changing climate
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Antarctic krill Euphausia superba, a keystone species in the Southern Ocean, is highly relevant for studying effects of climate-related shifts on management systems. Krill provides a key link between primary producers and ... -
Assessing the importance of zooplankton sampling patterns with an ecosystem model
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The copepod Calanus finmarchicus is the dominant species of mesozooplankton in the Norwegian Sea and an important food source for multiple commercially exploited pelagic fish stocks. In addition to the patchy distribution ... -
Asynchronized spawning responses of small pelaigic fish to a short-term enviromental change
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)We provide substantial evidence on how short-term changes in environmental conditions activate and deactivate spawning activities in small pelagic fishes. An ichthyoplankton survey was conducted along the southernmost part ... -
Behaviour and habitat use of first-time migrant Arctic charr: novel insights from a subarctic marine area
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Anadromous Arctic charr Salvelinus alpinus is a cold-adapted salmonid that is vulnerable to climate warming and anthropogenic activities including salmon farming, hydropower regulation, and pollution, which poses a ... -
Body size adaptions under climate change: Zooplankton community more important than temperature or food abundance in model of a zooplanktivorous fish
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)One of the most well-studied biogeographic patterns is increasing body size with latitude, and recent body size declines in marine and terrestrial organisms have received growing attention. Spatial and temporal variation ... -
Climatic and environmental factors influencing occurrence and distribution of macroalgae – a fjord gradient revisited
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-07-21)During the last decades, trends of increasing sea water temperatures and precipitation have been observed in the North Atlantic. Increasing sea water temperatures are expected to have strong effects on coastal benthic ... -
Climatic and environmental factors influencing occurrence and distribution of macroalgae – a fjord gradient revisited
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015) -
Common temperature-growth dependency and acclimation response in three herbivorous protists
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Phytoplankton growth dependence on temperature is recognized and has been quantified comprehensively. However, no similar relationship exists for the major phytoplankton predators, the herbivorous protists, especially at ... -
Diel vertical movements determine spatial interactions between cod, pelagic fish and krill on an Arctic shelf bank
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Predator-prey spatial interactions are essential to understand ecosystem processes like predation rates and trophic interaction strength. In marine systems, such spatial interactions are highly dynamic and difficult to ... -
Earlier hatching and slower growth, a key to survival in the early life history of Norwegian spring spawning herring
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Faster growth in fish larvae is often associated with enhanced survival, and here we investigated whether surviving juvenile Norwegian spring spawning herring Clupea harengus L. generally come from a pool of fast-growing ... -
Ecosystem-level effects of large-scale disturbance in kelp forests
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020) -
Effect of suspended sediments on the pumping rates of three species of glass sponge in situ
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The largest known glass sponge reefs in Canada are within the Hecate Strait and Queen Charlotte Sound Glass Sponge Reefs Marine Protected Area (HSQCS-MPA) in British Columbia. However, human activities outside the core MPA ... -
Effects of climate and eutrophication on the diversity of hard bottom communities on the Skagerrak coast 1990-2010
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Eutrophication is one of the most serious environmental problems in the Skagerrak, and climate change may increase eutrophication in the future. This study focused on the effects of eutrophication and climate, and the ... -
Evidence for light-controlled migration amplitude of a sound scattering layer in the Norwegian Sea
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-06-09)The oceanic sound scattering layer (SL) is an ubiquitous acoustic signature of mesopelagic fishes and invertebrates that are important food sources for the oceanic macrofauna and players in the biological carbon pump. We ... -
Feeding at the front line: Interannual variation in the use of glacier fronts by foraging black-legged kittiwakes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Tidewater glacier fronts can represent important foraging areas for Arctic predators. Their ecological importance is likely to change in a warmer Arctic. Their profitability and use by consumers are expected to vary in ... -
Foraging success in planktivorous fish increases with topographic blockage of prey distributions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Banks and shelves are productive zones of the ocean, and often home to large fish stocks. Can shallower bottom topographies improve foraging opportunities for pelagic fish by blocking zooplankton from hiding in deep, darker ... -
Genetic origin and salinity history influence the reproductive success of Atlantic herring
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Atlantic herring populations inhabit environments ranging in salinity from fully marine to nearly freshwater, but their relative reproductive success in these respective environments remains unclear. We conducted factorial ... -
Genotypic variation in response to extreme events may facilitate kelp adaptation under future climates
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Marine heatwaves (MHWs) have caused declines in many kelp forests globally. Although the ecological effects of these climatic extremes have been well examined, studies on the role of genotypic variation in underpinning ... -
Ice-algal carbon supports harp and ringed seal diets in the European Arctic: evidence from fatty acid and stable isotope markers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Sea-ice declines in the European Arctic have led to substantial changes in marine food webs. To better understand the biological implications of these changes, we quantified the contributions of ice-associated and pelagic ... -
Impact of multiple stressors on sea bed fauna in a warming Arctic
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The Arctic Barents Sea is experiencing a record temperature increase, a poleward shift in the distributions of commercial fish stocks, and invasion by the snow crab, a new predator. To evaluate benthic community vulnerability ...
