    Multi-seasonal and high-resolution studies of the Polar Front

    Environmentally sustainable industry operations require comprehensive ecosystem understanding, safe and effective monitoring technologies, and a reliable data archive for assessing risk and driving management strategies. Perhaps nowhere is this more evident than in sensitive Arctic regions where the knowledge base is incomplete, operational risk is high, and databases are fragmented and not user-f

    Forskning for økt matproduksjon - fra verdensrom til havrom

    Forskningsmiljøene utforsker nå kombinert bruk av fjernmåling og havdroner for å bygge kunnskap som kan effektivisere fisket etter lavtrofiske marine arter som fôr-ingrediens i oppdrettsnæringen.

    Contributions to a Global Ocean Observing System: Uncrewed surface vehicles for monitoring air-sea interactions

    Observing air-sea interactions on a global scale is essential for improving Earth system forecasts. These exchanges are however challenging to quantify. The reasons for this are extreme conditions, remote and under-sampled locations, requirements for the study of a multitude of co-located variables, and high variability of fluxes in space and time.

    Last chance to see? The Central Arctic Ocean on the threshold of change

    Long cold winters, thick year-round sea-ice, and great distances from major logistics centers have kept many secrets regarding the status and processes of the central Arctic Ocean ecosystem. Occasional research cruises, remote sensing technology, models, and our imagination provided the basis for our understanding through the end of the 20th century. Longer navigation seasons due to reduced sea-ic

    From Sea to Lab- studying the effects from pollutants and stress on marine mammals

    Text by Audrey Youjia Su
    Large marine mammals are some of the most polluted animals on the planet. This is a result of a process known as biomagnification, where chemical pollutants get ingested by small marine organisms and build up in the fatty tissues of larger animals as they move up the food chain. Animals at the top of the chain, such as killer whales, can end up carrying over 100x the ha

    IceView is the first project to receive financing from the Arctic Phi-Lab

    The Norwegian Geotechnical Institute gets support to develop an application for remote sensing of the coastal ice, called IceView.
    The IceView project is led by the Norwegian Geotechnical Institute (NGI) with the goal to develop algorithms to continuously map coastal ice using InSAR, a technique that enables observations of small movements from space. The Alfred Wegner Institute in Germany and

Recently Pierre Priou from Akvaplan-niva participated in the annual meeting in the ICES Working Group on Fisheries Acoustics Science and Technology (WGFAST). The meeting var hosted by Hafró/MFRI in Hafnarfjörður, Iceland (Hafrannsóknastofnun). Pierre presented the latest development in the projects Migratory Crossroads and the CliN-BluFeed projects. In both projects we use gliders and uncrewed surface vehicles equipped with echosounders to study the small plankton species Calanus finmarchicus. The Migratory Corssroads project is financed by the Research Council of Norway (Norges forskningsråd), led by Akvaplan-niva, and the partners are UiT The Arctic University of Norway/UiT Norges arktiske universitet, the Norwegian Institute for Water Research (Norsk institutt for vannforskning - NIVA), the Norwegian Institute of Nature Research (Norsk institutt for naturforskning- NINA), the Technical University of Denmark (DTU Aqua), and the Scripps Oceanographic Institution - University of San Diego. The CliN-BluFeed project is financed by the Sustainable Blue Economy Partnership, and the partners are Cyprus Subsea Consulting and Services CSCS Ltd, the Atlantic International Research Centre (AIR Centre), the Institute of Oceanology of Polish Academy of Sciences (IOPAN), and the Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI).

The research team on the SLICE project is currently sampling fat tissue from polar bears in Svalbard in collaboration with the Norwegian Polar Institute. The ice-class research vessel “RV Kronprins Haakon” will operate as a lab for the team for the coming weeks. We wish them the best of luck in search for a better understanding of the effects from pollutants on our important marine mammals. The SLICE project is financed by the Research Council of Norway, led by Akvaplan-niva, and the partners are the University of Bergen, the Norwegian Polar Institute, UiT The Arctic University of Norway, the Norwegian Institute for Air Research (NILU), the Norwegian Institute for Water Research (NIVA), Institute of Environmental Assessment and Water Research (CSIC) Spain, Universite Catholique de Louvain (Belgium), University of Abertay.

Den siste uken har det blitt samlet inn biopsier av spermhval og grindhval til SLICE prosjektet. Disse blir nå prosessert på Akvaplan-niva der det undersøkes hvor levedyktig biopsiene er. Videre skal disse prøvene anvendes for å studere hvordan miljøgifter påvirker marine pattedyr.

Long cold winters, thick year-round sea-ice, and great distances from major logistics centers have kept many secrets regarding the central Arctic Ocean ecosystem. Longer navigation seasons due to reduced sea-ice cover in recent years have however led to more frequent investigation. This is part of a race to understand how this ocean functions – before the rapid changes taking place in the area is changed forever. https://akvaplan.no/no/nyhet/2025-03-28/last-chance-to-see-the-central-arctic-ocean-on-the-threshold-of-change-495618
