      Diapausing populations of Calanus finmarchicus at depth in the Lofoten Basin (LB) return to the continental shelf and slope off the Lofoten-Vesterålen Islands during the phytoplankton spring bloom to feed and spawn, forming surface swarms with a great abundance. To study how overwintering populations of C. finmarchicus move with the deep currents and return to the shelf, Lagrangian transport ...
    • Spring phytoplankton distributions and primary productivity in waters off northern Norway 

      Meng, Rui; Smith, Walker O.; Basedow, Sünnje Linnéa (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-04-13)
      The distributions of phytoplankton, zooplankton and hydrographic features off the coast of northern Norway were assessed in late April – early May 2019 using ship-based observations (CTD casts and Moving Vessel Profilers) and autonomous vehicles. A satellite chlorophyll climatology was generated to place our in-situ observations within a longer temporal sequence. Substantial spatial and temporal ...
