Water Flow Requirements of Post-smolt Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar L.) Reared in Intensive Seawater Flow-through Systems: A Physiological Perspective
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-05-26)Environmental challenges related to open sea cage production of Atlantic salmon have sparked interest in developing commercial-scale semi-closed sea systems for post-smolt Atlantic salmon (100–1000 g). Determining the mass-specific water flow required by post-smolts will largely influence the design and dimensioning of such systems. In this experiment, post-smolts were exposed to four levels of ... -
A welfare analysis of Norway’s export promotion programme for whitefish
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-10-19)Norway recently increased the effective levy used to fund its export promotion programme for whitefish by 21 per cent. Study results suggest the intensified programme is welfare increasing. The net social gain, defined as the difference between the increase in economic surplus associated with the increased advertising and the decrease in economic surplus associated with the increased effective levy, ... -
The Well – Mixing skirt and freshwater lens concepts with smart-lighting and -feeding to enhance lice prevention and safeguard fish welfare
(Research report; Forskningsrapport, 2019)A commercial scale sea-cage design, combining skirt and freshwater lens concepts with smart lighting and feeding for improved lice prevention and fish welfare, was trialed. Environment, lice levels and fish welfare were assessed. In addition, acoustic tags and echo sounders were used to track fish behaviour. An associated laboratory trial on brackish water salinity effects on host-attached salmon ... -
What do the Great Barrier Reef management and Norwegian spatial fisheries management have in common?
(Conference object; Konferansebidrag, 2018)What do the Great Barrier Reef management and Norwegian spatial fisheries management have in common? The presentation addresses the importance of governmentality (Foucault 1978), understood as the art of governing for successful marine governance (MG). Management of the Great Barrier Reef and the Norwegian spatial management of fisheries are used as examples of systems that depends on and foster ... -

What hat are you wearing? On the multiple roles of fishery scientists in the ICES community
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-10-29)Trends towards a more participatory agenda in policy-relevant science imply that the roles and work tasks of scientists become more multifaceted. In Europe, the increased use of multiannual plans creates a need for fishery scientists to contribute with their expertise in a wide variety of situations. We identify and characterize four roles for scientists as <i>developers</i>, <i>reviewers</i>, ... -
When is enough, enough? Quantifying trade-offs between information quality and sampling effort for fishing gear selectivity data
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-06-21)There is general pressure throughout the world’s fisheries for the industry to have greater involvement not only in the development of fishing gears but also in the testing and documentation of their effect. In the European Union, the Common Fisheries Policy of 2013, together with the proposed reform of the technical measures regulation, highlights the need for greater flexibility in fisheries through ... -
Why and how to regulate Norwegian salmon production? – The history of Maximum Allowable Biomass (MAB)
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-07-05)Salmon farming has been a great success story in Norway over the last 50 years, but the industry is still much disputed. Right from the start, farmers were licensed, with a limit on total production. In addition, each site was regulated according to carrying capacity. Over the years, various management measures have been used to regulate both the total production and environmental conditions, before ... -
Wild and Farmed Arctic Charr as a Tourism Product in an Era of Climate Change
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-08-12)The topic investigated is the social-ecological system of Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus) fishing and aquaculture as a tourism product in an era of climate change. Arctic charr is a resilient salmonid species that was traditionally an important part of the sustenance economy in Arctic and Subarctic communities as a source of fresh food throughout the year. Arctic charr populations have declined ... -
Willingness to pay for mangrove restoration to reduce the climate change impacts on ecotourism in Rekawa coastal wetland, Sri Lanka
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-05-03)This study investigates tourist preferences and willingness to pay (WTP) for restoration of mangroves to reduce the effects of climate change (CC) on ecotourism at Rekawa coastal wetland, Sri Lanka, using a double bounded discrete choice elicitation format in a contingent valuation method. The survey also included socio-economic, demographic, and attitudinal characteristics of respondents. The ... -
Willingness to pay for unfamiliar public goods: Preserving cold-water coral in Norway
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-02-17)The world's largest concentration of cold-water coral (CWC) is found off the Norwegian coast. Most CWC discoveries are recent, posing new challenges for Norwegian coastal and fishery authorities regarding the management of deep-sea resources. Scientific knowledge of CWC is limited, and many citizens have not even heard about them. This creates problems for the application of the stated preference ... -
Willingness to pay to protect cold water corals
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-08-16)There is increasing pressure to use currently untapped resources in the deep sea, raising questions regarding ecosystem service trade‐offs in these often unknown areas. We assessed the trade‐offs between protection of cold‐water coral reefs and economic activities, such as fisheries and petroleum extraction, through a survey of a representative sample of the populations of Norway and Ireland. ... -
