    • Lack of strong seasonality in macrobenthic communities from the northern Barents Sea shelf and Nansen Basin 

      Jorda Molina, Eric; Sen, Arunima; Bluhm, Bodil Annikki Ulla Barbro; Renaud, Paul Eric; Włodarska-Kowalczuk, Maria; Legeżyńska, Joanna; Oleszczuk, Barbara; Reiss, Henning (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-10-12)
      The Barents Sea has been coined ‘the Arctic hotspot’ of climate change due to the rapidity with which environmental changes are taking place. This transitional domain from Atlantic to Arctic waters is home to highly productive benthic communities. This system strongly fluctuates on a seasonal basis in its sympagic-pelagicbenthic coupling interactions, with potential effects on benthic standing ...
    • Macrofauna and meiofauna food-web structure from Arctic fjords to deep Arctic Ocean during spring: A stable isotope approach 

      Oleszczuk, Barbara; Silberberger, Marc Jürgen; Grzelak, Katarzyna; Winogradow, Aleksandra; Dybwad, Christine Schumann; Peeken, Ilka; Wiedmann, Ingrid; Kędra, Monika (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-07-13)
      The knowledge on benthic trophic relations is particularly important for understanding the functioning of still pristine and less studied Arctic Ocean ecosystems. This study examines the benthic food-web structure in the European sector of the Arctic Ocean and assesses if and how it differs along depth gradients in the marginal seaice zone during spring. Samples of the sediment organic matter were ...
