    • Flashing light emitting diodes (LEDs) induce proteins, polyunsaturated fatty acids and pigments in three microalgae 

      Lima, Serena; Schulze, Peter Simon Claus; Schüler, Lisa M.; Rautenberger, Ralf; Morales-Sanchez, Daniela; Santos, Tamára F.; Pereira, Hugo; Varela, João C.S.; Scargiali, Francesca; Wijffels, Rene Hubertus; Kiron, Viswanath (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-11-25)
      As the periodic emission of light pulses by light emitting diodes (LEDs) is known to stimulate growth or induce high value biocompounds in microalgae, this flashing light regime was tested on growth and biochemical composition of the microalgae <i>Nannochloropsis gaditana, Koliella antarctica</i> and <i>Tetraselmis chui</i>. At low flashing light frequencies (e.g., 5 and 50 Hz, Duty cycle = 0.05), ...
    • Flashing lights affect the photophysiology and expression of carotenoid and lipid synthesis genes in Nannochloropsis gaditana 

      Lima, Serena; Lokesh, Jep; Schulze, Peter S.C.; Wijffels, Rene Hubertus; Kiron, Viswanath; Scargiali, Francesca; Petters, Sebastian; Bernstein, Hans Christopher; Morales-Sanchez, Daniela (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-11-20)
      Nannochloropsis gaditana is a promising microalga for biotechnology. One of the strategies to stimulate its full potential in metabolite production is exposure to flashing lights. Here, we report how N. gaditana adapts to different flashing light regimes (5, 50, and 500 Hz) by changing its cellular physiology and the relative expression of genes related to critical cellular functions. We analyzed ...

      Jackson, Peter; Rivera Ferre, Marta; Candel, Jeroen; Davies, Anna; Derani, Cristiane; de Vries, Hugo; Dragovic-Uzelac, Verica; Hoel, Alf Håkon; Holm, Lotte; Mathjis, Erik; Morone, Piergiuseppe; Penker, Marianne; Spiewak, Ruta; Termeer, Katrien; Thøgersen, John (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-03-11)
      The European Commission’s recently published ‘Farm to Fork’ strategy seeks to facilitate a transition towards a sustainable food system. The strategy moves from a linear understanding of the food system towards a more circular view of the system’s complex interdependencies. Despite these laudable intentions, it does not follow the guidance of the EU’s Group of Chief Scientific Advisors that the ...
    • Food Safety Risks Posed by Heavy Metals and Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) related to Consumption of Sea Cucumbers 

      Elvevoll, Edel O.; James, David; Toppe, Jogeir; Gamarro, Esther Garrido; Jensen, Ida-Johanne (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-12-09)
      The global production of sea cucumbers was 245 thousand tons in 2020. Sea cucumbers are important food items in Asian and Pacific cuisines, the highest proportion being consumed in China as “bêche-de-mer” dried, gutted, boiled and salted body wall. However, consumption of sea cucumbers is expanding in China and globally, and the high demand has led to decline in populations of sea cucumbers, due to ...
    • Food-web structure varies along environmental gradients in a high-latitude marine ecosystem 

      Kortsch, Susanne; Primicerio, Raul; Aschan, Michaela; Lind, Sigrid; Dolgov, Andrey V.; Planque, Benjamin (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-05-17)
      Large-scale patterns in species diversity and community composition are associated with environmental gradients, but the implications of these patterns for food-web structure are still unclear. Here, we investigated how spatial patterns in food-web structure are associated with environmental gradients in the Barents Sea, a highly productive shelf sea of the Arctic Ocean. We compared food webs ...
    • For all audiences: Incorporating immature stages into standardised spider inventories has a major impact on the assessment of biodiversity patterns 

      Domènech, Marc; Wangensteen, Owen S.; Enguídanos, Alba; Malumbres-Olarte, Jagoba; Arnedo, Miquel A. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-04-25)
      Although arthropods are the largest component of animal diversity, they are traditionally underrepresented in biological inventories and monitoring programmes. However, no biodiversity assessment can be considered informative without including them. Arthropod immature stages are often discarded during sorting, despite frequently representing more than half of the collected individuals. To date, ...
    • Forfeiting the priority effect: turnover defines biofilm community succession 

      Brislawn, Colin J.; Graham, Emily B.; Dana, Karl; Ihardt, Peter; Fansler, Sarah J.; Chrisler, William B.; Cliff, John B.; Stegen, James C.; Moran, James J.; Bernstein, Hans C. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-03-18)
      Microbial community succession is a fundamental process that affects underlying functions of almost all ecosystems; yet the roles and fates of the most abundant colonizers are often poorly understood. Does early abundance spur long term persistence? How do deterministic and stochastic processes influence the ecological contribution of colonizers? We performed a succession experiment within a hypersaline ...
    • Forging connections, pursuing social justice: a tribute to Maarten Bavinck’s conceptual and institution-building contributions to maritime studies 

      Scholtens, Joeri; Johnson, Derek; Jentoft, Svein; Ros-Tonen, Mirjam; Chuenpagdee, Ratana; Gupta, Joyeeta; Kraan, Marloes; Menon, Ajit; Roth, Dik (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-09-30)
      This paper is written in recognition of the contributions that Maarten Bavinck has made to the field of maritime studies and for the inspiration that he has been for many. It is hard to separate Maarten’s academic and institution-building contributions from his personal qualities, particularly his interest in human relationships. Maarten’s aptitude for building bridges between people, ideas, and ...
    • Formation of Stanley Patch volcanic cone: New insights into the evolution of Deception Island caldera (Antarctica) 

      Hopfenblatt, J.; Geyer, A.; Aulinas, M.; Álvarez-Valero, A.M.; Gisbert, G.; Kereszturi, G.; Ercilla, G.; Gómez-Ballesteros, M.; Márquez, A.; Garcia-Castellanos, Daniel; Pedrazzi, D.; Sumino, H.; Höskuldsson, Ármann; Giralt, S.; Preckler, Carlos Angulo (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-04-16)
      Deception Island (South Shetland Islands) is one of the most active volcanoes in Antarctica, with more than 20 explosive eruptive events registered over the past centuries. Recent eruptions (1967, 1969, and 1970) and volcanic unrest episodes (1992, 1999, and 2014–2015) demonstrate that volcanic activity is likely occurring in the future. This is of special concern for scientists, logistic personnel, ...
    • Forvaltning, styring og kybernetisering i fiske – konsekvenser for raudåtenæringa? 

      Johnsen, Jahn Petter (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2008)
      Norsk fiskerinæring har gjennomgått betydelige teknologiske og organisatoriske endringer. Blant annet har de tidligere frie fiskeriene blitt lukket, og en rekke styrings- og reguleringssystemer er innført. Fra å være basert på uformell organisering og implisitt styring, fikk vi gjennom 1980- og 90-åra ei fiskerinæring som var gjenstand for eksplisitt styring. Etter tusenårsskiftet ser vi konturene ...
    • Found in translation: identifying ecosystem services through public consultation statements in a marine spatial planning process 

      Sundsvold, Bente; Armstrong, Claire W. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-04-15)
      There has been a widespread push to incorporate ecosystem services (ES) in research and policy-making, yet ES have remained an expert-driven discourse not well integrated into hands-on planning and management, particularly at the more local levels. We carry out a retrospective investigation of an inter-municipal marine spatial planning (MSP) process in Northern Norway, where the allocation of new ...
    • Four new suomilides isolated from the cyanobacterium Nostoc sp. KVJ20 and proposal of their biosynthetic origin 

      Schneider, Yannik Karl Heinz; Liaimer, Anton; Isaksson, Johan Mattias; Wilhelmsen, Oda Sofie Bye; Andersen, Jeanette Hammer; Østnes Hansen, Kine; Hansen, Espen Holst (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-04-20)
      The suomilide and the banyasides are highly modified and functionalized non-ribosomal peptides produced by cyanobacteria of the order Nostocales. These compound classes share several substructures, including a complex azabicyclononane core, which was previously assumed to be derived from the amino acid tyrosine. In our study we were able to isolate and determine the structures of four suomilides, ...
