A desktop study on biofloc technology
(Research report, 2023)Aquaculture industry is a growing sector worldwide and is expected to contribute significantly to satisfying the increasing protein needs of a growing population. Biofloc technology (BFT) emerged over the past decades as ... -
Detection and quantification of CO2 seepage in seawater using the stoichiometric Cseep method: Results from a recent subsea CO2 release experiment in the North Sea
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is a potential significant mitigation strategy to combat climate change and ocean acidification. The technology is well understood but its current implementation must be scaled up nearly ... -
Developing a methodology for user-oriented verification of polar low forecasts
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Polar lows exhibit features with very sharp weather contrasts. In weather forecasting, a small misplacement of areas with hazardously high wind speeds can have fatal impacts for people living in polar regions. Therefore, ... -
Developing an Observing Air–Sea Interactions Strategy (OASIS) for the global ocean
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The Observing Air–Sea Interactions Strategy (OASIS) is a new United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development programme working to develop a practical, integrated approach for observing air–sea interactions ... -
Development of a digital droplet PCR approach for the quantification of soil micro-organisms involved in atmospheric CO2 fixation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Carbon-fixing micro-organisms (CFMs) play a pivotal role in soil carbon cycling, contributing to carbon uptake and sequestration through various metabolic pathways. Despite their importance, accurately quantifying the ... -
Development of a risk assessment for sea trout in coastal areas exploited for aquaculture
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The regulation of aquaculture production in Norway considers the potential impact of salmon lice on wild fish. However, most attention has been focused on impacts on wild Atlantic salmon, despite the fact that anadromous ... -
The development of ocean currents and the response of the cryosphere on the Southwest Svalbard shelf over the Holocene
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)While general trends in the inflow of Atlantic Water (AW) to the European Arctic over the present interglacial (the Holocene) are well known, regional changes in climate and the AW current and subsequent environmental ... -
Digital fisheries data in the Internet age: Emerging tools for research and monitoring using online data in recreational fisheries
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Recreational fisheries are diverse in scale, scope, and participation worldwide, constituting an important ecosystem service of marine and freshwater ecosystems. Management of these socio-ecological systems is challenged ... -
Dissolution Dominates Silica Cycling in a Shelf Sea Autumn Bloom
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Small marine microalgae called diatoms are responsible for significant levels of primary production in support of marine ecosystems. Diatom cells are formed from silica dissolved in seawater; however, diatom cells may also ... -
Dissolved inorganic nutrients in the western Mediterranean Sea (2004–2017)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Long-term time series are a fundamental prerequisite to understanding and detecting climate shifts and trends. Understanding the complex interplay of changing ocean variables and the biological implication for marine ... -
Distinct polymer-dependent sorption of persistent pollutants associated with Atlantic salmon farming to microplastics
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Interactions of microplastics and persistent organic pollutants (POPs) associated with Atlantic salmon farming were studied to assess the potential role of microplastics in relation to the environmental impact of aquaculture. ... -
Diverse Surface Signatures of Stratospheric Polar Vortex Anomalies
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The Arctic stratospheric polar vortex is an important driver of winter weather and climate variability and predictability in North America and Eurasia, with a downward influence that on average projects onto the North ... -
Diversity and phylogeny of demosponge fauna in the abyssal nodule fields of the eastern Clarion-Clipperton Zone, Pacific Ocean
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)More than 7000 demosponge species have been described to date globally but <2% are known from the abyssal plains, which occupy some 50% of the Earth's surface. The demosponge fauna in the abyssal nodule fields at ... -
DNA damage and health effects in juvenile haddock (Melanogrammus aeglefinus) exposed to PAHs associated with oil-polluted sediment or produced water
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The research objective was to study the presence of DNA damages in haddock exposed to petrogenic or pyrogenic polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from different sources: 1) extracts of oil produced water (PW), dominated by ... -
A DNA-Free Editing Platform for Genetic Screens in Soybean via CRISPR/Cas9 Ribonucleoprotein Delivery
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)CRISPR/Cas9-based ribonucleoprotein (RNP)-mediated system has the property of minimizing the effects related to the unwanted introduction of vector DNA and random integration of recombinant DNA. Here, we describe a platform ... -
Documentation of Microplastics in Tissues of Wild Coastal Animals
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Microplastic pollution is omnipresent in biota around the globe, and concerns are rising that humans are exposed to microplastics (MP) through food. Investigations of MP in wild animals relevant for human consumption and ... -
Does vaterite otolith deformation affect post-release survival and predation susceptibility of hatchery-reared juvenile Atlantic Salmon?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Sagittal otoliths are calcareous structures in the inner ear of fishes involved in hearing and balance. They are usually composed of aragonite; however, aragonite can be replaced by vaterite, a deformity which is more ... -
Drift diving: A quick and accurate method for assessment of anadromous salmonid spawning populations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The accuracy of drift diving surveys of Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L. and sea trout, Salmo trutta L., was evaluated by comparing the abundance and size distribution with catches in a fish trap over 6 years in the River ... -
Drivers of Megabenthic Community Structure in One of the World’s Deepest Silled-Fjords, Sognefjord (Western Norway)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The Sognefjord is the longest (205 km) and deepest (1308 m) fjord in Norway, and the second-longest in the world. Coast-fjord exchange in Sognefjord is limited by a seaward sill at 170 m water depth, which causes a clear ... -
