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 ... -
Successful growth of coastal marine microalgae in wastewater from a salmon recirculating aquaculture system
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)As global demand for seafood increases, recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) have gained prominence for sustainable fish rearing. The sustainability of RAS still requires improvement, particularly managing the fish ... -
Genetic monitoring uncovers long-distance marine feeding coupled with strong spatial segregation in sea trout (Salmo trutta L.) consistent at annual and decadal time scales
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Genetic data have greatly increased means to understand fish marine migration behaviours at large spatial scale within a quantitative framework. The anadromous sea trout is a prized target of recreational fishery and an ... -
Coherent long-term body-size responses across all Northwest Atlantic herring populations to warming and environmental change despite contrasting harvest and ecological factors
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Body size is a key component of individual fitness and an important factor in the structure and functioning of populations and ecosystems. Disentangling the effects of environmental change, harvest and intra- and inter-specific ... -
Condition factor tailored to lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) used as cleaner fish in salmonid farms
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) are extensively used as part of the control measures against salmon lice in fish farms. In recent years, there has been an increased focus on lumpfish welfare, and how to increase survival of ... -
Haulout Patterns of Harbour Seal Colonies in the Norwegian Skagerrak, as Monitored through Time-Lapse Camera Surveys
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Harbour seals (Phoca vitulina) are part of the Norwegian coastal ecosystem and can be observed on skerries, islands, and sandbanks along the coastline, sometimes in close proximity to inhabited areas. In this study, we ... -
Importance of environmental signals for cardiac morphological development in Atlantic salmon
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)The hearts of salmonids display remarkable plasticity, adapting to various environmental factors that influence cardiac function and demand. For instance, in response to cold temperature, the salmonid heart undergoes growth ...
