Climate-Induced Evolution of the Behaviour and Life-History Strategies of Atlantic Cod (Gadus morhua). A Modelling Approach
(Doctoral thesis, 2015-08-21)Climate change influences the marine environment, with ocean warming being the foremost driving factor governing changes in the physiology and ecology of fish. At the individual level temperature can directly influence ... -
Dynamics of the Barents Sea pelagic compartment: species distributions, interactions and response to climate variability
(Doctoral thesis, 2017-01-20)Long, consistent and uninterrupted monitoring resulting in time series of biological and environmental data are needed to understand the relations between environment and species, and species interactions, which also affect ... -
Ice-algal carbon supports harp and ringed seal diets in the European Arctic: evidence from fatty acid and stable isotope markers
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Sea-ice declines in the European Arctic have led to substantial changes in marine food webs. To better understand the biological implications of these changes, we quantified the contributions of ice-associated and pelagic ... -
Implications of a changing Arctic on microbial communities: Following the effects of thawing permafrost from land to sea
(Doctoral thesis, 2018-06-14)Climate change has severe impacts in the Arctic, where permafrost is thawing, glaciers are retreating and sea ice is melting. These physical changes are not only affecting large predators like polar bears, but also microscopic ... -
Predicting and assessing climate-change impacts on the population dynamics of alpine and lowland forbs
(Doctoral thesis, 2015-05-29)Background and aims: Global climate change is already affecting plant species worldwide. The global rise in temperatures and regional changes in precipitation are predicted to continue throughout the century. Therefore, ...
