A Synergistic Approach for Evaluating Climate Model Output for Ecological Applications
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Increasing concern about the impacts of climate change on ecosystems is prompting ecologists and ecosystem managers to seek reliable projections of physical drivers of change. The use of global climate models in ecology ... -
Acclimation to various temperature and pCO2 levels does not impact the competitive ability of two strains of Skeletonema marinoi in natural communities
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Understanding the long-term response of key marine phytoplankton species to ongoing global changes is pivotal in determining how oceanic community composition will respond over the coming decades. To better understand the ... -
Advancing Through the Pandemic From the Perspective of Marine Graduate Researchers: Challenges, Solutions, and Opportunities
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has brought about a new social and academic reality to researchers worldwide. The field of marine science, our own topic of interest, has also been impacted in multiple ways, from cancelation ... -
Approaches to Reconsider Literature on Physiological Effects of Environmental Change: Examples From Ocean Acidification Research
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Understanding links between the abiotic environment and organism fitness and function is a central challenge of biology, and an issue of growing relevance due to anthropogenic environmental changes. To date, our understanding ... -
Arctic Sensitivity? Suitable Habitat for Benthic Taxa Is Surprisingly Robust to Climate Change
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Arctic marine ecosystems are often assumed to be highly vulnerable to ongoing climate change, and are expected to undergo significant shifts in structure and function. Community shifts in benthic fauna are likely to result ... -
Assessing Tolerance to the Hydrodynamic Exposure of Posidonia oceanica Seedlings Anchored to Rocky Substrates
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Among a suite of abiotic and biotic factors, the hydrodynamic regime strongly influences the success of seagrass recruitment through sexual propagules. Uprooting of propagules by drag forces exerted by currents and waves ... -

Benthic Communities on the Mohn’s Treasure Mound: Implications for Management of Seabed Mining in the Arctic Mid-Ocean Ridge
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 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 ... -
Biogeochemical structure of the Laptev Sea in 2015-2020 associated with the River Lena plume
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The discharge of rivers and the subsequent dispersion of their plumes play a pivotal role in the biogeochemical cycling of the Arctic Ocean. Based on the data collected during annual transects conducted in the autumn period ... -
A Blueprint for an Inclusive, Global Deep-Sea Ocean Decade Field Program
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The ocean plays a crucial role in the functioning of the Earth System and in the provision of vital goods and services. The United Nations (UN) declared 2021–2030 as the UN Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development. ... -
China’s regulatory respond to plastic pollution: Trends and trajectories
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Despite China having an international reputation as one of the largest contributors to plastic pollution in the world’s oceans, research analyzing China’s regulatory approach to governing plastic has been limited and ... -
Coastal Research Seen Through an Early Career Lens—A Perspective on Barriers to Interdisciplinarity in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The value of interdisciplinarity for solving complex coastal problems is widely recognized. Many early career researchers (ECRs) therefore actively seek this type of collaboration through choice or necessity, for professional ... -
A Decade of Incorporating Social Sciences in the Integrated Marine Biosphere Research Project (IMBeR): Much Done, Much to Do?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Successful management and mitigation of marine challenges depends on cooperation and knowledge sharing which often occurs across culturally diverse geographic regions. Global ocean science collaboration is therefore essential ... -
Disappearing Blue Mussels – Can Mesopredators Be Blamed?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Despite many theories, the recent evident decreases in blue mussel (Mytilus edulis) abundance in southern Norway and western Sweden (eastern North Sea) have not yet been explained. To test the possible role of increased ... -
Dispersal and Deposition of Detritus From Kelp Cultivation
