    • Coincident mass occurrence of gelatinous zooplankton in Northern Norway 

      Knutsen, Tor; Hosia, Aino; Falkenhaug, Tone; Skern-Mauritzen, Rasmus; Wiebe, Peter H.; Larsen, Roger B.; Aglen, Asgeir (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-05-23)
      In autumn 2015, several sources reported observations of large amounts of gelatinous material in a large north Norwegian fjord system, either caught when trawling for other organisms or fouling fishing gear. The responsible organism was identified as a physonect siphonophore, Nanomia cara, while a ctenophore, Beroe cucumis, and a hydromedusa, Modeeria rotunda, were also registered in high abundances ...

    • Distribution of rorquals and Atlantic cod in relation to their prey in the Norwegian high Arctic 

      Solvang, Hiroko K.; Haug, Tore; Knutsen, Tor; Gjøsæter, Harald; Bogstad, Bjarte; Hartvedt, Siri; Øien, Nils; Lindstrøm, Ulf (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-03-14)
      Recent warming in the Barents Sea has led to changes in the spatial distribution of both zooplankton and fish, with boreal communities expanding northwards. A similar northward expansion has been observed in several rorqual species that migrate into northern waters to take advantage of high summer productivity, hence feeding opportunities. Based on ecosystem surveys conducted during August–September ...

    • Harp seal body condition and trophic interactions with prey in Norwegian high Arctic waters in early autumn 

      Haug, Tore; Biuw, Martin; Gjøsæter, Harald; Knutsen, Tor; Lindstrøm, Ulf; MacKanzie, Kirsteen M.; Meier, Sonnich; Nilssen, Kjell Tormod (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-12-28)
      In September 2016, a marine ecosystem survey covered all trophic levels from phytoplankton to seals in the Arctic Ocean to the west and north of Svalbard. At the ice edge, 26 harp seals were sampled to assess whether recent environmental changes had affected their diets and body condition by comparing our current results with previous investigations conducted 2–3 decades ago in the northern Barents ...

    • Report from a krill focused survey with RV Kronprins Haakon and land-based predator work in Antarctica during 2018/2019 

      Krafft, Bjørn Arne; Bakkeplass, Kjell Gunnar; Berge, Terje; Biuw, Martin; Erices, Julio Alberto; Jones, Elizabeth Marie; Knutsen, Tor; Kubilius, Rokas; Kvalsund, Merete; Lindstrøm, Ulf; Macaulay, Gavin; Renner, Angelika; Rey, Alina; Søiland, Henrik; Wienerroither, Rupert; Ahonen, Heidi; Goto, Jade; Hoem, Nils; Huerta, Magdelena; Höfer, Juan; Iden, Oda; Jouanneau, William; Kruger, Lucas; Liholt, Håvard; Lowther, Andy; Makhado, Azwianewi B.; Mestre, Mireia; Narvestad, Audun; Oosthuisen, Chris; Rodrigues, Jose Antonio Canseco; Øyerhamn, Rune (Research report; Forskningsrapport, 2019)
      The primary objective for this krill research activity was twofold 1) to conduct a survey that provides updated estimates of the biomass and distribution of krill which are used in models to estimate sustainable yield in CCAMLR Area 48 and 2) to develop knowledge on the marine environment essential for the implementation of a Feed-Back Management (FBM) system. The survey follows a similar design ...
