Environmental effects of oil and gas exploration on the benthic fauna of the Norwegian continental shelf: an analysis using the OLF database

We will use traditional and new multivariate statistical methods to analyse effects of using oil-based and non-oli-based drilling fluids on the benthos of the Norwegian continental shelf. These methods allow one to test hypotheses of cause and effect and thus may move from a descriptive to a pr...

PROOF-Langtidsvirkn. av utslipp til

Comparative oral and water based exposures of cod to produced water components.

There are presently three on-going PROOF projects at RF-Akvamiljø and Institute of Marine Research (IMR) concerning effects of produced water components in cod. The projects have different objectives, and they focus on different aspects of effects in fish . Consequently, the studies vary in the w...

Proteome Expression Signatures (PES) in fish as a diagnostic tool to evaluate the environmental impacts of offshore oil and gas exploration

Project summary Recent studies on fish examining the impact of produced water released offshore have revealed an extremely complex response to oil micro droplets and oil spiked with relevant doses of poly-aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and alkylated phenols (AP). Protein expression signatures (PES...

Predicting chronic effects in Fish from sublethal markers

Offshore activities input large volumes of moderately contaminated effluents into the North Sea. There is uncertainty as to the biological effects of the effluents, although there are signs that some biological systems are affected.

Phenotypic variability in life-history traits: is intra population variability important for zooplankton dynamics

State-of-the-art studies in theoretical disciplines predict that populations will evolve as environments change. There is hardly any empirical information that can shed light on the importance of this process for natural marine zooplankton. This is most u nfortunate, as many of the changes predic...

NORKLIMA-Klimaendringer og konsekvenser for Norge

Climatic responses in boreal ecosystems: a spatiotemporal analysis spanning 70 years of vegetation dynamics in a north-boreal alpine ecotone

The north boreal forests and the low alpine areas cover a large proportion of the Norwegian land surface. The predicted anthropogenic climate changes are supposed to have large influences in these areas due to potential immigration of tree species above t he existing treeline. Steep temperature g...

Living with little or no oxygen: from molecules to physiological biodiversity

While most vertebrates die within minutes of anoxia (no oxygen), a few species can tolerate anoxia about 1000 times longer. These include the crucian carp (Carassius carassius, No: karuss), a common fish in Norway, and some turtles. Anoxia and ischemia r elated diseases are the major killers in t...

3 - Effects of produced water to Atlantic cod: Mechanistic studies and biomarker development with proteomics based methods.

Effects of contaminants on an organism start at the molecular level, and are transferred to higher levels of biological organization if the exposure is persistent and toxicological repair is overwhelmed. Long-term effects of produced water on the reproduc tion of Atlantic cod can therefore be stu...

Evolution of chloroplasts: addressing the genomic processes behind acquisition of secondary and tertiary organelles

The dinoflagellate chloroplasts (plastids) originate from eukaryotic photosynthetic endosymbionts. Rather than being derived from a single group (being monophyletic) the plastids of dinoflagellates are originate from several organism groups and are thus of polyphyletic origin. Most dinoflagellat...
