Inferring regional patterns from local dynamics using spatially explicit simulation modelling and remote sensing data

The availability and quality of field data is one of the most severe limitations to studies of spatio-temporal population processes such as cyclic dynamics and population synchrony. We propose here an approach that will overcome many limitations concernin g data adequacy and which can dramaticall...

Barents sea eccosstem dynamics - a spatial approach

How perturbations from harvest and climate cascade through marine shelf ecosystems depend on species interactions. Interaction strength is therefore of vital importance to ecosystem dynamics. In this project, we propose a spatial approach to study trophi c and competitive interactions in boreal ...

Exposure as a factor for primary and secundary production in a kelp forest

Project summary It is a well established fact that kelp forest are highly productive areas, with an annual production about 10 times of what might be found in phytoplankton dominated waters. Resent research have also shown that kelp is an important carbon source for many animals in these areas. ...
