The importance of social dimension and maturation stage for the probabilistic maturation reaction norm in Poecilia reticulata
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013-10-01)Maturation is an important event in an organism's life history, with important implications on dynamics of both wild and captive populations. The probabilistic maturation reaction norm (PMRN) has emerged as an important ... -

An investigation into the parasitic barnacle, Anelasma squalicola; prevalence, infection behaviour and effects on its host, Etmopterus spinax, in Lusterfjord, Norway.
(Master thesis, 2016-06-27)Anelasma squalicola is a recently evolved parasite. Very little is known of its biology due to its normally low prevalence in deep sea lantern sharks (family: Etmopteridae), in which it is found embedded in the skin. A ... -
Life-history implications of the allometric scaling of growth
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-10-21)Several phenomenological descriptions, such as the von Bertalanffy growth model, have been widely used to describe size-at-age and individual growth across a diverse range of organisms. However, for modelling life histories, ... -
Spawning, settlement and growth of Ciona intestinalis in Øygarden, Hardangerfjorden and Kvitsøy
(Master thesis, 2015-04-24)Due to the increasing aquaculture industry, new resources for feed should be assessed. A high protein content in Ciona intestinalis have increased the interest to farm C. intestinalis, and use as a feed resource. In addition, ...
