• Can multitrophic interactions and ocean warming influence large-scale kelp recovery? 

      Christie, Hartvig C; Gundersen, Hege; Rinde, Eli; Filbee-Dexter, Karen; Norderhaug, Kjell Magnus; Pedersen, Torstein; Bekkby, Trine; Gitmark, Janne Kim; Fagerli, Camilla With (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Ongoing changes along the northeastern Atlantic coastline provide an opportunity to explore the influence of climate change and multitrophic interactions on the recovery of kelp. Here, vast areas of sea urchin‐dominated ...
    • Congruence, but no cascade - Pelagic biodiversity across three trophic levels in Nordic lakes 

      Andersen, Tom; Hessen, Dag Olav; Håll, Johnny Peter; Khomich, Maryia; Kyle, Marcia; Lindholm, Markus; Rasconi, Serena; Skjelbred, Birger; Thrane, Jan-Erik; Walseng, Bjørn (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Covariation in species richness and community structure across taxonomical groups (cross‐taxon congruence) has practical consequences for the identification of biodiversity surrogates and proxies, as well as theoretical ...
    • Effect of ocean acidification on growth and otolith condition of juvenile scup, Stenotomus chrysops 

      Perry, Dean M.; Redman, Dylan H.; Widman Jr., James C.; Meseck, Shannon; King, Andrew Luke; Pereira, Jose J. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)
      Increasing amounts of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) from human industrial activities are causing changes in global ocean carbonate chemistry, resulting in a reduction in pH, a process termed “ocean acidification.” It ...
    • In a squeeze: Epibiosis may affect the distribution of kelp forests 

      Andersen, Guri Sogn; Christie, Hartvig C; Moy, Frithjof Emil (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      The processes limiting the population recovery of the kelp Saccharina latissima after recent large‐scale loss from the south coast of Norway are poorly understood. Previous investigations do, however, suggest that the ...
    • Isotopic niche differs between seal and fish-eating killer whales (Orcinus orca) in northern Norway 

      Jourdain, Eve; Andvik, Clare Margaret; Karoliussen, Richard; Ruus, Anders; Vongraven, Dag; Borgå, Katrine (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Ecological diversity has been reported for killer whales (Orcinus orca) throughout the North Atlantic but patterns of prey specialization have remained poorly understood. We quantify interindividual dietary variations in ...
    • UV radiation affects antipredatory defense traits in Daphnia pulex 

      Eshun-Wilson, Franceen; Wolf, Raoul; Andersen, Tom; Hessen, Dag O; Sperfeld, Erik (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      In aquatic environments, prey perceive predator threats by chemical cues called kairomones, which can induce changes in their morphology, life histories, and behavior. Predator‐induced defenses have allowed for prey, such ...
