Behavioral responses of herring (Clupea harengus) to 1–2 and 6–7 kHz sonar signals and killer whale feeding sounds
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2009)Military antisubmarine sonars produce intense sounds within the hearing range of most clupeid fish. The behavioral reactions of overwintering herring Clupea harengus to sonar signals of two different frequency ranges 1–2 ... -
Behaviour of adult sea trout in a regulated lake
(Master thesis, 2022-06-01) -
Behavioural and physiological adaptations of the bearded goby, a key fish species of the extreme environment of the northern Benguela upwelling
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-03-14)Nutrient-rich, upwelling marine areas with high productivity often produce sediments dominated by organic-rich mud. Here, intense decay processes create hypoxic conditions with high concentrations of hydrogen sulphide and ... -
Behavioural and welfare implications of a new slipping methodology for purse seine fisheries in Norwegian waters
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-03-11)The release of unwanted fish from purse seines whilst still in the water is termed slipping and may lead to significant mortality following release. The objective of this study was to determine the fish welfare implications ... -
Behavioural economics in fisheries: A systematic review protocol
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background The field of behavioural economics holds several opportunities for integrated fisheries management and conservation and can help researchers and managers alike understand fisher behaviour and decision-making. ... -
Behavioural effects of naval sonars on fish and cetaceans
(Doctoral thesis, 2011-04-01)Anthropogenic noise in the sea has increased during the past decades as a consequence of increased shipping traffic, oil and gas exploitation, and underwater construction work (Southall et al., 2007; Slabbekoorn et al., ... -
Behavioural response of brown trout (Salmo trutta) to total dissolved gas supersaturation in a regulated river
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Total dissolved gas supersaturation from dams and power stations is a chronic freshwater pollutant that is toxic to animals with aquatic respiration. Laboratory ecotoxicology experiments have revealed capacity for captive ... -
Behavioural responses to human-induced change: Why fishing should not be ignored
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-03)Change in behaviour is usually the first response to human-induced environmental change and key for determining whether a species adapts to environmental change or becomes maladapted. Thus, understanding the behavioural ... -
Behaviourally modern humans in coastal southern Africa experienced an increasingly continental climate during the transition from Marine Isotope Stage 5 to 4
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023-07-25)Unravelling evolution-by-environment interactions on the gut microbiome is particularly relevant considering the unprecedented level of human-driven disruption of the ecological and evolutionary trajectories of species. ... -
Belief Propagation in Self-Dual F4-Additive Codes Utilizing Local Complementaion
(Master thesis, 2019-06-27)Developing algorithms for belief propagation in self-dual GF(4)-additive codes utilizing local complementation in order to improve decoding performance. -
Benchmarking plant diversity of Palaearctic grasslands and other open habitats
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Aims Understanding fine-grain diversity patterns across large spatial extents is fundamental for macroecological research and biodiversity conservation. Using the GrassPlot database, we provide benchmarks of fine-grain ... -
Bending moments and collision loads between a floating offshore wind turbine and a supporting barge
(Master thesis, 2019-06-14) -
A bending rigidity parameter for stress granule condensates
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Interfacial tension plays an important role in governing the dynamics of droplet coalescence and determining how condensates interact with and deform lipid membranes and biological filaments. We demonstrate that an interfacial ... -
Benefit of vertical localization for sea surface temperature assimilation in isopycnal coordinate model
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022-12-15)Sea surface temperature (SST) observations are a critical data set for long-term climate reconstruction. However, their assimilation with an ensemble-based data assimilation method can degrade performance in the ocean ... -
Benguela Niños: Observations and Modelling
(Master thesis, 2004)A numerical ocean model for the South Atlantic was used to study the 1995 Benguela Niño in order to learn about the underlying forcing mechanisms of the phenomenon. By comparing observations and model output, it was found ... -
Benthic algal vegetation in Isfjorden, Svalbard
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-08-11)Benthic algal vegetation was investigated at 10 sites in Isfjorden, Svalbard. Five sites were visited during summer 2010 and five during summer 2012. Both the littoral and sublittoral vegetation were sampled, the littoral ... -
Benthic Communities on the Mohn’s Treasure Mound: Implications for Management of Seabed Mining in the Arctic Mid-Ocean Ridge
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The Mohn’s Treasure, described as an inactive sulfide mound, was discovered at 2,600-m depth on the Arctic Mid-Ocean Ridge (AMOR) in 2002. In 2015, we conducted the first biological survey of Mohn’s Treasure using remotely ... -

Best Practice Data Standards for Discrete Chemical Oceanographic Observations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Effective data management plays a key role in oceanographic research as cruise-based data, collected from different laboratories and expeditions, are commonly compiled to investigate regional to global oceanographic ...
