      1. Due to globalisation, trade and transport, the spread of alien species is increasing dramatically. Some alien species become ecologically harmful by threatening native biota. This can lead to irreversible changes in local biodiversity and ecosystem functioning, and, ultimately, to biotic homogenisation.<p><p> 2. We risk-assessed all alien plants, animals, fungi and algae, within certain ...

    • Bycatch in trawl-fisheries. Sub-project 3 

      Sundet, Jan Henry; Hauan, Marit Anne (Research report; Forskningsrapport, 2000)
      The main goals of this sub-project were to evaluate whether interviewing fishers could be an appropriate method to reveal quantities of the bycatches in the Norwegian trawl fisheries, and to describe the knowledge about and the fishermen's attitudes to the bycatch problem. In total 11 crew members on trawlers from a fishing company in Lofoten were interviewed. The data from the interviews showed ...
    • Climate change, non-indigenous species and shipping: assessing the risk of species introduction to a high-Arctic archipelago 

      Ware, Christopher; Berge, Jørgen; Sundet, Jan Henry; Kirkpatrick, JB; Coutts, A.D.M.; Jelmert, Anders; Olsen, SM; Floerl, O; Wisz, Mary S.; Alsos, Inger Greve (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      Aim: Anticipated changes in the global ocean climate will affect the vulnerability of marine ecosystems to the negative effects of non-indigenous species (NIS). In the Arctic, there is a need to better characterize present and future marine biological introduction patterns and processes. We use a vector-based assessment to estimate changes in the vulnerability of a high-Arctic archipelago to marine ...
    • First record of cuticle bands in the stomach ossicles of the red king crab Paralithodes camtschaticus (Tilesius, 1815) (Decapoda: Anomura: Lithodidae) from Norway. 

      Bluhm, Bodil; Kilada, Raouf; Ambrose, William; Renaud, Paul Eric; Sundet, Jan Henry (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-09-09)
      The red king crab Paralithodes camtschaticus (Tilesius, 1815) is a large predator intentionally introduced to the Barents Sea and adjacent fjords in the 1960s. Its establishment has given rise to both a high-value fishery and destructive effects on seafloor habitats and communities. Given the need for accurate information on age, growth, and longevity that could improve management and mitigation ...
    • Microplastic Fiber Emissions From Wastewater Effluents: Abundance, Transport Behavior and Exposure Risk for Biota in an Arctic Fjord 

      Herzke, Dorte; Ghaffari, Peygham; Sundet, Jan Henry; Tranang, Caroline Aas; Halsband, Claudia (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-06-07)
      Microfibers (MF) are one of the major classes of microplastic found in the marine environment on a global scale. Very little is known about how they move and distribute from point sources such as wastewater effluents into the ocean. We chose Adventfjorden near the settlement of Longyearbyen on the Arctic Svalbard archipelago as a case study to investigate how microfibers emitted with untreated ...
