Weather Effects on the Haul‐Out Behaviour of Ringed Seals in the Amundsen Gulf

open access: yesMarine Ecology, Volume 47, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT Ringed seals (Pusa hispida) use sea ice year‐round in the Arctic as a platform for giving birth, raising young and moulting. Arctic ringed seal population assessments are typically conducted by aerial surveys flown in the spring, when many seals haul out. However, many factors can influence whether a seal is hauled out on the ice and available

Age, growth rate, and otolith growth of polar cod (Boreogadus saida) in two fjords of Svalbard, Kongsfjorden and Rijpfjorden

open access: yesOceanologia, 2017
This work presents biological information for polar cod (Boreogadus saida) collected with a Campelen 1800 shrimp bottom trawl in Kongsfjorden (two stations located in the inner part of the fjord adjacent to the glacier) and Rijpfjorden (one station at ...

Growth Autocorrelation in Atlantic Bluefin Tuna Thunnus thynnus Larvae in the Northwest Mediterranean and the Gulf of Mexico

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, Volume 35, Issue 2, Page 297-305, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Growth and survival rates during the early life stages are key vital parameters driving population dynamics of fish. Growth rates generally present a pattern of autocorrelation. Growth autocorrelation is stronger when faster and slower growing individuals continue to grow faster and slower.

Fish in Kongsfjorden under the influence of climate warming

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
IntroductionKongsfjorden is being impacted by climate warming, which has fostered the increase of abundance of Atlantic fish (e.g. Atlantic cod, Gadus morhua), fish that are non-endemic for Kongsfjorden.

Distribution and ecology of polar cod (Boreogadus saida) in the eastern Barents Sea: A review of historical literature

open access: yesMarine Environmental Research, 2021
The polar cod (Boreogadus saida) has a circumpolar distribution and is the most abundant planktivorous fish in the Arctic. Declining sea-ice coverage impacts polar cod directly and also facilitates expansion of human activities in the region leading to increasing anthropogenic pressures on biota.

Spring phenology of the Arctic Ocean shelf production system

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
The shelf areas of the Arctic Ocean host some of the world’s most productive marine ecosystems, yet their under-ice early-season phenology and inter-trophic dynamics remain poorly understood amid rapid climate change.

Diet of the ringed seal (Phoca hispida) in Greenland

open access: yesNAMMCO Scientific Publications, 1998
Analysis of 454 stomachs of ringed seals (Phoca hispida) collected from the Inuit hunt in six municipalities in West Greenland and 30 alimentary tracts collected by scientists in East Greenland, showed seasonal and regional differences in the diet.

Community structure and range shifts in Arctic marine fish under climate change

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2026, Issue 1, January 2026.
Arctic marine ecosystems are rapidly transforming due to climate change. Warming temperatures and shrinking sea ice are enabling boreal fish to expand northward, possibly disturbing cold‐adapted Arctic species assemblages. Species range shifts have been documented in the Bering and Barents Seas, raising concerns about ecosystem restructuring.
