      Stenseth, Nils Christian; Payne, Mark R.; Bonsdorff, Erik; Dankel, Dorothy Jane; Durant, Joel Marcel; Anderson, Leif G.; Armstrong, Claire W.; Blenckner, Thorsten; Brakstad, Ailin; Dupont, Sam; Eikeset, Anne Maria; Goksøyr, Anders; Jónsson, Steingrímur; Kuparinen, Anna; Våge, Kjetil; Österblom, Henrik; Paasche, Øyvind (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-08-17)
      The ocean is a lifeline for human existence, but current practices risk severely undermining ocean sustainability. Present and future social−ecological challenges necessitate the maintenance and development of knowledge and action by stimulating collaboration among scientists and between science, policy, and practice. Here we explore not only how such collaborations have developed in the Nordic ...
    • Implementation of integrated ecosystem assessments in the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea - Conceptualizations, practice, and progress 

      Clay, Patricia M; Ferretti, Johanna; Bailey, Jennifer L.; Goti, Leyre; Dankel, Dorothy Jane; Santurtun, Marina; Fuller, Jessica Leyla; Linke, Sebastian; Schmidt, Jörn; Nielsen, Kåre Nolde; Goldsborough, David; Groeneveld, Rolf; Fraga, Ana Rita; Elegbede, Isa; Röckmann, Christine (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-05-23)
      With increasing activities of multiple sectors in marine spaces, management of marine social–ecological systems requires more holistic approaches. Adopting such an approach, however, presents difficult institutional and disciplinary challenges. Here, we use the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) as a case study on the implementation of ecosystem-based management (EBM) and ...
    • The melting snowball effect: A heuristic for sustainable Arctic governance under climate change 

      Dankel, Dorothy Jane; Tiller, Rachel; Koelma, Elske; Lam, Vicky W.Y.; Liu, Yajie (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-07-08)
      Climate change in the Arctic is occurring at a rapid rate. In Longyearbyen, Svalbard, the world’s northernmost city, deadly avalanches and permafrost thaw-induced architectural destruction has disrupted local governance norms and responsibilities. In the North Atlantic, the warming ocean temperatures have contributed to a rapid expansion of the mackerel stock which has spurred both geo-political ...
    • Multidisciplinary perspectives on living marine resources in the Arctic 

      Kvamsdal, Sturla Furunes; Dankel, Dorothy Jane; Ekerhovd, Nils-Arne; Hoel, Alf Håkon; Renner, Angelika; Sandø, Anne Britt; Steinshamn, Stein Ivar (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-10-20)
      Many areas in the Arctic are vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. We observe large-scale effects on physical, biological, economic and social parameters, including ice cover, species distributions, economic activity and regional governance frameworks. Arctic living marine resources are affected in various ways. A holistic understanding of these effects requires a multidisciplinary enterprise. ...
    • Resilience to exogenous shocks in environmental management regimes in the Arctic – lessons learned from survivors 

      Tiller, Rachel; Nyman, Elizabeth; Dankel, Dorothy Jane; Liu, Yajie (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-06-13)
      A changing climate will impact not only the environment but all levels of governance thereof, including the context of the close to 400 multilateral environmental management agreements signed since the year 2000. For the Ocean, researchers project that the increasing sea surface temperatures will facilitate large changes in the marine food web, including large shifts in distribution patterns of ...
    • What hat are you wearing? On the multiple roles of fishery scientists in the ICES community 

      Dankel, Dorothy Jane; Stange, Kari; Nielsen, Kåre Nolde (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>, ...
