Energy content of krill and amphipods in the Barents Sea from summer to winter: variation across species and size
Nowicki, Robynne; Borgå, Katrine; Gabrielsen, Geir W.; Varpe, Øystein (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Arctic zooplankton develop large energy reserves, as an adaptation to strong seasonality, making them valuable prey items. We quantified the energy content (kJ g−1 dry weight) of abundant krill (arcto-boreal, Thysanoessa ... -
Seasonal pollutant levels in littoral high-Arctic amphipods in relation to food sources and terrestrial run-off
Skogsberg, Stina Linnea Emelie; Mcgovern, Maeve; Poste, Amanda; Jonsson, Sofi; Arts, Michael T.; Varpe, Øystein; Borgå, Katrine (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Increasing terrestrial run-off from melting glaciers and thawing permafrost to Arctic coastal areas is expected to facilitate re-mobilization of stored legacy persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and mercury (Hg), potentially ... -
Transcriptome responses in copepods Calanus finmarchicus, Calanus glacialis and Calanus hyperboreus exposed to phenanthrene and benzo[a]pyrene
Yadetie, Fekadu; Brun, Nadja Rebecca; Giebichenstein, Julia; Dmoch, Katarzyna; Hylland, Ketil; Borgå, Katrine; Karlsen, Odd André; Goksøyr, Anders (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Arctic and sub-arctic pelagic organisms can be exposed to effluents and spills from offshore petroleum-related activities and thus it is important to understand how they respond to crude oil related contaminants such as ...
