    • Growth and production of the brittle stars Ophiura sarsii and Ophiocten sericeum (Echinodermata: Ophiuroidea) 

      Ravelo, Alexandra M.; Konar, Brenda; Bluhm, Bodil; Iken, Katrin (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-03-28)
      Dense brittle star assemblages dominate vast areas of the Arctic marine shelves, making them key components of Arctic ecosystem. This study is the first to determine the population dynamics of the dominant shelf brittle star species, <i>Ophiura sarsii</i> and <i>Ophiocten sericeum</i>, through age determination, individual production and total turnover rate (P:B). In the summer of 2013, <i>O. ...
