• Ancient RNA from Late Pleistocene permafrost and historical canids shows tissue-specific transcriptome survival 

      Smith, Oliver; Dunshea, Glenn; Sinding, Mikkel-Holger; Fedorov, Sergey; Germonpre, Mietje; Bocherens, Hervé; Gilbert, Marcus Thomas Pius (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      While sequencing ancient DNA (aDNA) from archaeological material is now commonplace, very few attempts to sequence ancient transcriptomes have been made, even from typically stable deposition environments such as permafrost. ...
    • Fear effects and group size interact to shape herbivory on coral reefs 

      Bauman, Andrew G; Hoey, Andrew; Dunshea, Glenn; Fong, Jenny; Chan, Ian, Z. W.; Todd, Peter Alan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      1. Fear of predators (‘fear effects’) are an important determinant of foraging decisions by consumers across a range of ecosystems. Group size is one of the main behavioural mechanisms for mitigating fear effects while ...
    • Kunnskapsstatus for bruk av molekylære verktøy i kartlegging og overvåkning av biologisk mangfold i marine miljø 

      Dunshea, Glenn; Martell, Luis; Bakken, Torkild; Budaeva, Nataliya; Ekrem, Torbjørn; Tandberg, Anne Helene S.; Baussant, Thierry; de Boer, Hugo; Hestetun, Jon Thomassen; Hobæk, Anders; Kallioniemi, Eveliina; Larsen, Aud; Markussen, Stine Svalheim; Mauvisseau, Quentin; Ray, Jessica Louise; Yoccoz, Nigel; Willassen, Endre (Research report, 2021)
      Denne rapporten er bestilt av Miljødirektoratet fra NorBOL (Norwegian Barcode of Life), et nasjonalt nettverk av forskningsinstitusjoner som koordineres av NTNU Vitenskapsmuseet. Universitetsmuseet i Bergen har hatt ...
    • Macroalgal browsing on a heavily degraded, urbanized equatorial reef system 

      Bauman, Andrew G; Hoey, Andrew; Dunshea, Glenn; Feary, David A.; Low, Jeffery; Todd, Peter A. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)
      The removal of macroalgal biomass is critical to the health of coral reef ecosystems. Previous studies on relatively intact reefs with diverse and abundant fish communities have quantified rapid removal of macroalgae by ...
    • A regionally coherent ecological fingerprint of climate change, evidenced from natural history collections 

      Speed, James David Mervyn; Evankow, Ann; Petersen, Tanja Kofod; Ranke, Peter Sjolte; Nilsen, Nellie Henriette; Turner, Grace Winifred; Aagaard, Kaare; Bakken, Torkild; Davidsen, Jan Grimsrud; Dunshea, Glenn; Hassel, Kristian; Finstad, Anders Gravbrøt; Husby, Magne; Hårsaker, Karstein; Koksvik, Jan Ivar; Prestø, Tommy; Vange, Vibekke (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Climate change has dramatic impacts on ecological systems, affecting a range of ecological factors including phenology, species abundance, diversity, and distribution. The breadth of climate change impacts on ecological ...
    • Species-specific coral calcification responses to the extreme environment of the southern Persian Gulf 

      Howells, Emily J.; Dunshea, Glenn; McParland, Dain; Vaughan, Grace O.; Heron, Scott F.; Pratchett, Morgan S.; Burt, John A.; Bauman, Andrew G. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)
      Sustained accretion of calcium carbonate (mostly by scleractinian corals) is fundamental for maintaining the structure and function of coral reef ecosystems, but may be greatly constrained by extreme and rapidly changing ...
    • The effect of Marine Protected Areas on the diet of Lillesand European lobster (Homarus gammarus): A DNA-based diet analysis approach 

      Leiknes, Silje Marie (Master thesis, 2023)
      Nedgangen i den norske bestanden av Europeisk hummer (Homarus gammarus) har blant annet ført til etableringen av over 50 fredningsområder for hummer siden starten av 2000-tallet. Til tross for de kjente positive effektene ...
    • Variation in d13C and d15N values of mothers and their calves across southern right whale nursery grounds: the effects of nutritional stress? 

      Carroll, Emma L.; Dunshea, Glenn; Ott, Paulo H.; Valenzuela, Luciano O.; Baker, C. S.; Childerhouse, Simon J.; Gaggiotti, Oscar; Flores, Paulo A. C.; Groch, Katia Regina; Gröcke, Darren R.; Hindell, Mark A.; Lundquist, David; Oliveira, Larrissa R.; Rowntree, Victoria; Sironi, Mariano; Newsome, Seth D. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Southern right whales (SRW) are capital breeders that use stored energy reserves to sustain themselves and their calves on nursery areas. With successful calving events declining in some SRW populations, it has been ...
