Climate mitigation and intensified forest management in Norway: To what extent are surface waters safeguarded?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)While the role of forestry in mitigating climate change is increasingly subject to political commitment, other areas, such as water protection, may be at risk. In this study, we ask whether surface waters are sufficiently ... -
Streamwater responses to reduced nitrogen deposition at four small upland catchments in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Reduced emissions of nitrogen (N) in Europe have resulted in decreasing atmospheric deposition since 1990. Long-term data (1988–2017) from four small Norwegian catchments located along gradients in N deposition, rainfall, ... -
Riverine impacts on benthic biodiversity and functional traits: A comparison of two sub-Arctic fjords
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Climate change is leading to increases in freshwater discharge to coastal environments with implications for benthic community structure and functioning. Freshwater inputs create strong environmental gradients, which ... -
Marine protected areas rescue a sexually selected trait in European lobster
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020) -
Age structure in a newly established and increasing population: initially high proportion of young birds among nesting Great Grey Owls.
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020) -
Legacy and Emerging Contaminants in Demersal Fish Species from Southern Norway and Implications for Food Safety
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The present study aimed at measuring the levels of legacy and emerging contaminants in fillet samples from four demersal fish caught in two fishing sites from Southern Norway, in order to assess possible implications for ... -
Influence of Riverine Input on Norwegian Coastal Systems
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Coastal ecosystems are of high ecological and socioeconomic importance and are strongly influenced by processes from land, sea, and human activities. In this study, we present physical, chemical, and biological observations ... -
Macrofaunal colonization of mine tailings impacted sediments
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)An experiment was conducted to study and compare macrofaunal colonization of thin layers of mine tailings. Experimental boxes filled with marine sediments capped with mine tailings were placed on the seabed and subject to ... -
Influence of larval transport and temperature on recruitment dynamics of North Sea cod (Gadus morhua) across spatial scales of observation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The survival of fish eggs and larvae, and therefore recruitment success, can be critically affected by transport in ocean currents. Combining a model of early‐life stage dispersal with statistical stock–recruitment models, ... -
Marine protected areas rescue a sexually selected trait in European lobster
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020) -
Fiddler crabs and their above-ground sedimentary structures: a review
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Fiddler crabs are abundant, semi-terrestrial crustaceans inhabiting tropical, subtropical and warm temperate coasts worldwide. Some species build above-ground sedimentary structures at or near the opening to their burrows. ... -
A high-accuracy calibration method for temperature dependent photoluminescence imaging
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019) -
Northern European Salmo trutta (L.) populations are genetically divergent across geographical regions and environmental gradients
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019) -
Possible adverse impact of contaminants on Atlantic cod population dynamics in coastal ecosystems
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019) -
Fishing pressure impacts the abundance gradient of European lobsters across the borders of a newly established marine protected area

Epifaunal and infaunal responses to submarine mine tailings in a Norwegian fjord
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Disposal of mine tailings in marine shallow water ecosystems represents an environmental challenge, and the present paper reports results from a field study in Frænfjorden, Norway, which is subject to such disposal. ... -
Prey differences drive local genetic adaptation in Antarctic fur seals
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Antarctic fur seal (Arctocephalus gazella) colonies are found on sub-Antarctic islands around the continent. These islands experience a range of conditions in terms of physical and biological habitat, creating a natural ... -
