• Benthic scavenger community composition and carrion removal in Arctic and Subarctic fjords 

      Dunlop, Katherine Mary; Renaud, Paul Eric; Berge, Jørgen; Jones, Daniel O.B.; Harbour, Rob P.; Tandberg, Anne Helene S.; Sweetman, Andrew K. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      In high latitude coastal regions, benthic scavenger communities are largely composed of invertebrates that play a key role in the cycling of organic matter. Factors including temperature and depth can structure Arctic and ...
    • Diets of gadoid fish in Arctic waters of Svalbard fjords during the polar night 

      Larsen, Lars-Henrik; Cusa, Marine Lure Joana; Eglund-Newby, Sam; Berge, Jørgen; Renaud, Paul Eric; Varpe, Øystein; Geoffroy, Maxime; Falk-Petersen, Stig (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      As the climate warms, boreal fish species are expected to expand into the Arctic domain. Though water temperature is an important factor driving expansion of aquatic species, other variables may play a critical role in ...
    • High Arctic Mytilus spp.: occurrence, distribution and history of dispersal 

      Leopold, Peter; Renaud, Paul Eric; Ambrose, William G; Berge, Jørgen (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)

      The Barents Sea is one of the Polar regions where current climate and ecosystem change is most pronounced. Here we review the current state of knowledge of the physical, chemical and biological systems in the Barents Sea. ...
    • Summer and winter MgCO3 levels in the skeletons of Arctic bryozoans 

      Iglikowska, Anna; Krzemińska, Małgorzata; Renaud, Paul Eric; Berge, Jørgen; Hop, Haakon; Kuklinski, Piotr (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      In the Arctic, seasonal patterns in seawater biochemical conditions are shaped by physical, chemical, and biological processes related to the alternation of seasons, i.e. winter polar night and summer midnight sun. In ...
    • Understanding the Biogeochemical Impacts of Fish Farms Using a Benthic-Pelagic Model
