Interactions between eutrophication, oil and contaminants in marine ecosystems

Although there is much knowledge about environmental processes associated with environmental pressures such as eutrophication, oil and contaminants, there is limited understanding of how such pressures interact in their effects in marine ecosystems. This project aims to clarify interactions betwe...

Causes and consequences of a large-scale shift from sugar kelp (Saccharina latissima) to ephemeral algae and implications for management

The SACCHARINA project is based on the dramatic decline in the sugar kelp forest along the coast of Southern Norway. The sugar kelp normally dominates the sea-bed at 2 to 15 m depth in sheltered coastal areas of the Norwegian coast. Surveys have found tha t the sugar kelp forests have disappeared...
