    • A white humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) in the Atlantic Ocean, Svalbard, Norway, August 2012 

      Lydersen, Christian; Øien, Nils; Mikkelsen, Bjarni; Bober, Simon; Fisher, Dan; Kovacs, Kit M. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013-04-26)
      A white humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) was observed on several occasions off Svalbard, Norway, during August 2012. The animal was completely white, except for a few small dark patches on the ventral side of its ...

    • Diversity of hard-bottom fauna relative to environmental gradients in Kongsfjorden, Svalbard 

      Voronkov, Andrey; Hop, Haakon; Gulliksen, Bjørn (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013-04-26)
      A baseline study of hard-bottom zoobenthos in relation to environmental gradients in Kongsfjorden, a glacial fjord in Svalbard, is presented, based on collections from 1996 to 1998. The total species richness in 62 samples ...

    • Formation of Barents Sea Branch Water in the north-eastern Barents Sea 

      Lien, Vidar S.; Trofimov, Alexander G. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013-09-20)
      The Barents Sea throughflow accounts for approximately half of the Atlantic Water advection to the Arctic Ocean, while the other half flows through Fram Strait. Within the Barents Sea, the Atlantic Water undergoes considerable ...

    • Instrumentation and handling effects on Antarctic fur seals (Arctocephalus gazella) 

      Blanchet, Marie Ann; Lydersen, Christian; Biuw, Erik Martin; Bruin, N; Hofmeyr, Greg; Krafft, Bjørn Arne; Kovacs, Kit M. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014-02-21)
      The use of biologging instruments has greatly improved our understanding of the behaviour, physiology and ecology of free-ranging marine mammals. However, handling wild animals and attaching instruments to streamlined ...

    • Multidisciplinary perspectives on living marine resources in the Arctic 

      Kvamsdal, Sturla Furunes; Dankel, Dorothy Jane; Ekerhovd, Nils-Arne; Hoel, Alf Håkon; Renner, Angelika; Sandø, Anne Britt; Steinshamn, Stein Ivar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Many areas in the Arctic are vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. We observe large-scale effects on physical, biological, economic and social parameters, including ice cover, species distributions, economic activity ...

    • Seasonal dynamics of the marine CO2 system in Adventfjorden, a West Spitsbergen fjord 

      Ericson, Ylva; Chierici, Melissa; Falck, Eva; Fransson, Agneta Ingrid; Jones, Elizabeth Marie; Kristiansen, Svein (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Time series of the marine CO2 system and related parameters at the IsA Station, by Adventfjorden, Svalbard, were investigated between March 2015 and November 2017. The physical and biogeochemical processes that govern ...

    • The last two millennia: climate, ocean circulation and paleoproductivity inferred from planktic foraminifera, south-western Svalbard margin 

      Zamelczyk, Katarzyna; Rasmussen, Tine Lander; Raitzsch, Markus; Chierici, Melissa (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      We reconstruct climate and changes in water-mass properties in relation to variations in palaeoproductivity at the south-western Svalbard margin throughout the last 2000 years. Environmental conditions in subsurface (ca. ...
