Barents Sea capelin and us; Do they really mature and migrate at 14cm? Or have we become prisoners in our own Platonic allegory? How shall we respond?
(Master thesis, 2018-06-15)Capelin (Mallotus Villosus) are an important component of the Barents Sea ecosystem. As zooplankton consumers they play a role in channelling energy up the food web, and they have the potential to represent a biomass of ... -
Crustal velocity-depth model from Barents Sea Southeast based on a SSW-NNE oriented OBS-profile transecting the Tiddlybanken Basin and the Bjarmeland Platform
(Master thesis, 2014-11-20)A crustal model transecting the Tiddlybanken Basin, Hjalmar Johansen High and Bjarmeland Platform in the Barents Sea Southeast have been constructed with emphasis on P-wave phase picking and subsequent P-wave model-building ... -
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 ... -
Exploring balanced harvesting by using an Atlantis ecosystem model for the Nordic and Barents Seas
(Master thesis, 2018-06-20)To meet the objectives of the Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries, “Balanced Harvesting” (BH) has been suggested as a possible strategy to ensure a high sustainable yield while maintaining ecosystem structure and function. BH ... -
Factors leading to variation of spawning time in the Barents Sea capelin (Mallotus villosus)
(Master thesis, 2015-11-20)Barents Sea capelin (Mallotus villosus) is a semalparous fish species, and the timing of spawning both in terms of age and season is variable. The present thesis explores potential factors leading to variation in timing ... -
From winter to late summer in the northwestern Barents Sea shelf: Impacts of seasonal progression of sea ice and upper ocean on nutrient and phytoplankton dynamics
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Strong seasonality is a key feature of high-latitude systems like the Barents Sea. While the interannual variability and long-term changes of the Barents Sea are well-documented, the seasonal progression of the physical ... -
Seasonality and drivers of water column optical properties on the northwestern Barents Sea shelf
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Hydrographic and bio-optical measurements were conducted along a south–north transect on the northwestern Barents Sea shelf from early spring to late summer in 2021. Strong climate change manifestations observed in this ... -
Towards improved management of deep-sea sponge grounds in Norwegian waters
(Master thesis, 2016-10-04)Throughout this thesis I will further identify sponges ecological significance and vulnerability to human activities in the North Atlantic, with interest in Norwegian waters and background research of the integrated Barents ...
