Arctic marine microbial eukaryotes–Spatiotemporal drivers of community structure and ecological impacts of Atlantification
(Doctoral dissertations at University of Agder;no. 543, Doctoral thesis, 2025)Microbial eukaryotes serve not only as primary producers but also occupy other trophic modes in the marine food web. In the European Arctic, microbial eukaryotic community dynamics are threatened by the increasing inflow ... -
Plasticity and Evolution in Atlantic Cod Populations during Climate Change
(Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2024)It is increasingly recognised that ecology and evolution may interact on contemporary time scales and result in ongoing eco-evolutionary dynamics at population- community- and ecosystem levels. Therefore, an eco-evolutionary ... -
Changing the narrative and perspective surrounding marine fish
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Fish are essential components of the ocean carbon sink. Therefore, the carbon functions of fish should be incorporated into marine policies and management of carbon stocks in coastal and marine ecosystems, as well as ... -
The functional role of marine vertebrates in the ocean carbon cycle
(Doctoral dissertations at University of Agder;no. 536, Doctoral thesis, 2025)The ocean carbon cycle is increasingly recognized for its importance in absorbing greenhouse gases emitted by human activities and thereby delaying or reducing the severity of the impacts of climate change on land. The ... -
Good fisheries management is good carbon management
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Climate change is causing persistent, widespread, and significant impacts on marine ecosystems which are predicted to interact and intensify. Overfishing and associated habitat degradation have put many fish populations ... -
Forslag til nasjonal overvåking av søppelenheter på havbunnen — M-2897|2024
(Rapport fra havforskningen;, Research report, 2025)Flere typer utstyr kan brukes for å overvåke søppel på havbunnen, inkludert droppkameraer, ROV-er (Remotely Operated Vehicles) og AUV-er (Autonomous Underwater Vehicles). Droppkamera og videorigger er kostnadseffektive og ... -
Early life stages of fish under ocean alkalinity enhancement in coastal plankton communities
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE) stands as a promising carbon dioxide removal technology. Yet, this solution to climate change entails shifts in environmental drivers with unknown consequences for marine fish that are ... -
Effects of temperature and N:P ratio on the invasion success of the cyanobacterium Raphidiopsis raciborskii
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)The tropical invasive freshwater cyanobacterium Raphidiopsis raciborskii, first recorded in Central Europe about two decades ago, is now a relatively widespread species, expanding its geographic range. Currently, however, ... -
Trajectory-based fish event classification through pre-training with diffusion models
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)This study contributes to advancing the field of automatic fish event recognition in natural underwater videos, addressing the current gap in studying fish interaction and competition, including predator-prey relationships ... -
Genome-Wide Population Structure in a Marine Keystone Species, the European Flat Oyster (Ostrea edulis)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Ostrea edulis, the European flat oyster, was once a widespread economically and ecologically important marine species, but hassuffered dramatic declines over the past two centuries. Consequently, there has been a surge in ... -
In Vitro Cell Model Investigation of Alpha-Synuclein Aggregate Morphology Using Spectroscopic Imaging
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Recently, it has been hypothesized that alpha-synuclein protein strain morphology may be associated with clinical subtypes of alpha-synucleinopathies, like Parkinson’s disease and multiple system atrophy. However, direct ... -
Morphological evidence supports splitting of species in the North Atlantic Sebastes spp. complex
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2025)The redfishes (genus Sebastes) are long-lived, commercial species in the North Atlantic. Excessive harvest through decades has led to a decline in the mature population of golden redfish (Sebastes norvegicus) in Norwegian ... -
Fully protected marine areas linked to reduced home ranges of fishes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Home range size is a fundamental trait that can affect the probability of fish being harvested and, at the same time, may be affected by fishing. The relationship between home range size and fishing will impact the ... -
Bayesian estimation of spatially varying mortality risk using tagged animal data
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)The survival of animals is impacted by landscapes of spatially varying mortality factors including habitat type, predation risk or harvest risk, among others. Characterization of these spatial mortality processes is important ... -
Integration of citizen science and eDNA reveals novel ecological insights for marine fish conservation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)In the face of climate change, the accelerating nature crisis, and other anthropogenic impacts, conserving biodiversity demands effective monitoring. While innovative approaches have emerged to enhance biodiversity assessment, ... -
Efficient and reliable methods for estimating the abundance of keystone coastal macrofauna over large spatial scales
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Coastal bivalves are important ecosystem engineers, and identifying critical habitats can enhance conservation outcomes for threated keystone species as well as determining hotspots for invasive species. As early action ... -
Unlocking the secret life of blue mussels: Exploring connectivity in the Skagerrak through biophysical modeling and population genomics
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Knowledge of functional dispersal barriers in the marine environment can be used to inform a wide variety of management actions, such as marine spatial planning, restoration efforts, fisheries regulations, and invasive ... -
Technological creep masks continued decline in a lobster (Homarus gammarus) fishery over a century
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Fishery-dependent data are frequently used to inform management decisions. However, inferences about stock development based on commercial data such as Catch-Per-Unit-Effort (CPUE) can be severely biased due to a phenomenon ... -
The International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List does not account for intraspecific diversity
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List identifies threatened and endangered species and is a key instrument in global biodiversity conservation efforts. Our understanding of the structure and ... -
