A contrastive learning approach for individual re-identification in a wild fish population
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)In both terrestrial and marine ecology, physical tagging is a frequently used method to study population dynamics and behavior. However, such tagging techniques are increasingly being replaced by individual re-identification ... -
Ten priority questions for increasing the consistency and success in hatchery production of the European flat oyster for habitat restoration
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The European flat oyster, Ostrea edulis, once formed extensive reef habitats throughout European seas and estuaries. These reefs are now largely functionally extinct, yet interest and support for their restoration is rapidly ... -
Juvenile survival and movements of two threatened oceanic sharks in the North Atlantic Ocean inferred from tag-recovery data
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Understanding population dynamics, movements, and fishing mortality is critical to establish effective shark conservation measures across international boundaries in the ocean. There are few survival and dispersal estimates ... -
Atlantic cod individual spatial behaviour and stable isotope associations in a no-take marine reserve
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Foraging is a behavioural process and, therefore, individual behaviour and diet are theorized to covary. However, few comparisons of individual behaviour type and diet exist in the wild. We tested whether behaviour type ... -
Proteomic analysis reveals mechanisms underlying increased efficacy of bleomycin by photochemical internalization in bladder cancer cells
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Photochemical internalization (PCI) is a promising new technology for site-specific drug delivery, developed from photodynamic therapy (PDT). In PCI, light-induced activation of a photosensitizer trapped inside endosomes ... -
Thermal variability induces sex-specific morphometric changes in zebrafish (Danio rerio)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)In nature, organisms are exposed to variable environmental conditions that impact their performance and fitness. Despite the ubiquity of environmental variability, substantial knowledge gaps in our understanding of organismal ... -
Salmon lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) in the stomach contents of lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) sampled from Norwegian fish farms: Relationship between lice grazing and operational conditions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Cleaner fish are commonly used as a control measure against salmon lice infestations in salmonid farms. Lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) is the most common cleaner fish species used in Norwegian farms. However, little is known ... -
Correlation between body size and longevity: New analysis and data covering six taxonomic classes of vertebrates
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Large bodied species are known to live longer than small bodied species. However, it is less clear whether the positive correlation varies across taxa. In this short communication, we combine data entries from literature ... -
Computational Decision Support for Socio-Technical Awareness of Land-Use Planning under Complexity—A Dam Resilience Planning Case Study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Land-use planning for modern societies requires technical competence as well as social competence. We therefore propose an integrative solution enabling better land-use planning and management through better-informed ... -
Spatial patterns of phylogenetic and species diversity of fennoscandian vascular plants in protected areas
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Protected areas are one of the main strategic means for conserving biodiversity. Yet, the design of protected areas usually neglects phylogenetic diversity, an important diversity measure. In this paper we assess the ... -
Evidence of hybridization between genetically distinct Baltic cod stocks during peak population abundance(s)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Range expansions can lead to increased contact of divergent populations, thus increasing the potential of hybridization events. Whether viable hybrids are produced will most likely depend on the level of genomic divergence ... -
Fish community dynamics in a coastal no-take marine protected area compared to a harvested area before and after protection from fishing
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)An ecosystem's ability to maintain key functions during environmental change is largely determined by its biodiversity. We compared fish species composition, richness, diversity, catch per unit effort (CPUE), and fish size ... -
Movement diversity and partial sympatry of coastal and Northeast Arctic cod ecotypes at high latitudes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Movement diversity within species represent an important but often neglected, component of biodiversity that affects ecological and genetic interactions, as well as the productivity of exploited systems. By combining ... -
Linking extreme seasonality and gene expression in Arctic marine protists
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)At high latitudes, strong seasonal differences in light availability affect marine organisms and regulate the timing of ecosystem processes. Marine protists are key players in Arctic aquatic ecosystems, yet little is known ... -
Mass bathing in the slow worm Anguis fragilis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023) -
Population structure and connectivity in the genus Molva in the Northeast Atlantic
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023) -
How genomics can help biodiversity conservation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The availability of public genomic resources can greatly assist biodiversity assessment, conservation, and restoration efforts by providing evidence for scientifically informed management decisions. Here we survey the main ... -
Three decades of change in the Skagerrak coastal ecosystem, shaped by eutrophication and coastal darkening
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Global coastal ecosystems are under accelerating pressure from human activities and climate change. In this study we explore a long-term time series (mostly 1990–2016) from major Norwegian rivers, together with coastal ... -
Combining modeling with novel field observations yields new insights into wintertime food limitation of larval fish
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Recruitment success of marine fishes is generally considered to be highly dependent on larval growth and survival. In temperate ecosystems, fish larvae are sensitive to food limitation during the low productivity seasons, ... -
Marine primary producers in a darker future: a meta-analysis of light effects on pelagic and benthic autotrophs
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The availability of underwater light, as primary energy source for all aquatic photoautotrophs, is (and will further be) altered by changing precipitation, water turbidity, mixing depth, and terrestrial input of chromophoric ...
