      Harvest control rules have become an important tool in modern fisheries management, and are increasingly adopted to provide continuity in management practices, to deal with uncertainty and ecosystem considerations, and to relieve management decisions from short-term political pressure. We provide the conceptual and institutional background for harvest control rules, a discussion of the structure of ...
    • Hav, fisk og ressursforvaltning i nordområdene 

      Hoel, Alf Håkon (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-12-08)
      Mesteparten av norske havområder ligger nord for polarsirkelen og er åsted for noen av verdens rikeste fiskerier. De største fiskebestandene er delt med andre land, og internasjonalt samarbeid om ressursforvaltningen er derfor en viktig dimensjon ved nordområdepolitikken. Slikt samarbeid er basert på globale normer om hvordan levende marine ressurser skal forvaltes og deles og foregår på en rekke ...

      The lumpfish, Cyclopterus lumpus, holds significant promise as a candidate for large-scale aquaculture production, particularly in its role as a cleaner fish used to manage sea lice infestations in Atlantic salmon Salmo salar farming. Melanomacrophage centers (MMCs) represent polymorphic structures present in the hemolymphopoietic organs of various vertebrates, serving as a widely applicable ...
    • Heterochronic maturation of anatomical plugs for protecting the airway in rorqual whales (Balaenopteridae) 

      Lauridsen, Henrik; Bie Thøstesen, Charlotte; Pedersen, Christina Carøe Ejlskov; Ringgaard, Steffen; Elstrup, Mette; Møller, Peter Daniel Rask; Johansson, Daniel Klingberg; Alstrup, Aage Kristian Olsen (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-12-14)
      Recently, a unique mechanism for protecting the airway during lunge feeding was discovered in rorqual whales (Balaenopteridae). This mechanism is based on an oral plug structure in the soft palate with similarities in musculo-fatty composition to the nasal plugs protecting the respiratory tract of rorquals from water entry and barotrauma during diving. As a follow-up, we present here a ...

      Garbett, Amy; L. Loca, Sophie; Barreau, Thomas; Biscoito, Manuel; Bradley, Caroline; Breen, Joe; Clarke, Maurice; Ellis, Jim R.; Griffiths, Andrew Mark; Hannon, Gary; Jakobsdottir, Klara; Junge, Claudia; Lynghammar, Arve; McCloskey, Matthew; Minos, George; D. Phillips, Natasha; A. Prodöhl, Paolo; Roche, William; Iglesias, Samuel P.; Thorburn, James; C. Collins, Patrick (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-05-29)
      Morphological similarities between skates of the genus Dipturus in the north-eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean have resulted in longstanding confusion, misidentification and misreporting. Current evidence indicates that the common skate is best explained two species, the flapper skate (D. intermedius) and the common blue skate (D. batis). However, some management and conservation initiatives developed ...

      Holm, Anne Marie Rubæk; Knudsen, Steen Wilhelm; Månsson, Malene; Pedersen, Ditte Elmgreen; Nordfoss, Pauli Holm; Johansson, Daniel Klingberg; Gramsbergen, Marthe; Havmøller, Rasmus Worsøe; Sigsgaard, Eva Egelyng; Thomsen, Philip Francis; Olsen, Morten Tange; Møller, Peter Daniel Rask (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-10-20)
      The anthropogenic impact on the world's ecosystems is severe and the need for non-invasive, cost-effective tools for monitoring and understanding those impacts are therefore urgent. Here, we combine two such methods in a comprehensive multi-year study; camera trapping (CT) and analysis of environmental DNA (eDNA), in river marginal zones of a temperate, wetland Nature Park in Denmark. CT was ...
    • Homing of Antigen-Presenting Cells in Head Kidney and Spleen – Salmon Head Kidney Hosts Diverse APC Types 

      Iliev, Dimitri Borisov; Thim, Hanna Leena; Lagos, Leidy; Olsen, randi; Jørgensen, Jorunn B (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      Lymph nodes and spleen are major organs where mammalian antigen-presenting cells (APCs) initiate and orchestrate Ag-specific immune responses. Unlike mammals, teleosts lack lymph nodes and an interesting question is whether alternative organs may serve as sites for antigen presentation in teleosts. In the current study, fluorescent ovalbumin (Ova) and CpG oligonucleotides (ODNs) injected intra-abdominally ...

      Agent-based models (ABMs) are increasingly utilized in ecology and related fields, yet concerns persist regarding the lack of consideration for lessons learned from previous models. This study explores the potential of systematically conducted ABM reviews to contribute to cumulative science and theory development by synthesizing individual ABM findings more effectively. We are conducting a meta-review ...
    • How vulnerable is the European seafood production to climate warming? 

      Blanchet, Marie-Anne; Primicerio, Raul; Smalås, Aslak; Arias-Hansen, Juliana; Aschan, Michaela (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-10-16)
      The main challenge for the European seafood industry is to ensure sustainable production volume while adapting to climate warming. Marine fisheries mainly target 41 species which account for 80% of the seafood production in Europe. The remaining 20% comes from marine and freshwater aquaculture, which harvest mainly 5 and 11 species, respectively. European seafood production volume (2004–2014) recorded ...
