      Rock-derived or petrogenic organic carbon has traditionally been regarded as being non-bioavailable and bypassing the active carbon cycle when eroded. However, it has become apparent that this organic carbon might not be so inert, especially in fjord systems where petrogenic organic carbon influxes can be high, making its degradation another potential source of greenhouse gas emissions. The extent ...
    • Northern cod species face spawning habitat losses if global warming exceeds 1.5°C 

      Dahlke, Flemming T.; Butzin, Martin; Nahrgang, Jasmine; Puvanendran, Velmurugu; Mortensen, Atle; Pörtner, Hans-Otto; Storch, Daniela (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-11-28)
      Rapid climate change in the Northeast Atlantic and Arctic poses a threat to some of the world’s largest fish populations. Impacts of warming and acidification may become accessible through mechanism-based risk assessments and projections of future habitat suitability. We show that ocean acidification causes a narrowing of embryonic thermal ranges, which identifies the suitability of spawning ...
