Silent bird cliffs. Many Norwegian #seabird populations have declined significantly in recent decades. In this
@NINAforskning #scicomm project we have illustrated the dramatic changes. The article is in Norwegian but the photos speak for themselves.

Hver tredje ærfugl har forsvunnet fra norske farvann i løpet av to tiår. DNA-analyser av fuglene kan hjelpe oss å ta vare på arten. @biovitenskap @Fuglevern @EarthBioGenome @SEAPOP4 #ærfugl

Flere masterstudenter ved @biovitenskap har de siste årene jobbet med gråmåke og ærfugl i Oslofjorden for å forstå hvordan hva de spiser påvirker forurensingsbelastningen. Les mer her 👇

I) gulls breeding in Oslofjord divide as marine or terrestrial feeding
II) marine pollution levels > terrestrial
III) despite lower trophic levels, oslofjord gulls pollution > Barents Sea gulls
IV) higher oxidative stress in all the urban than rural herring gulls investigated.

Happy and proud that the last (for now?) publication in the urban gulls project is out! Big thanks to all collaborators and esp @BorgaK for having me on the project🐦 Check out our results on diet, pollution and stress urban vs remote herring gulls in the paper🥳

[Katrine Borgå @BorgaK]

New study on urban Oslofjord herring gulls - here we compared dietary markers, pollution load and DNA damage with a remote breeding colony - Hornøya on the coast to the Barents Sea #urbanfjord

@JuliaGieb SO excited to learn about these results!!

[Helene Skjeie Thorstensen @helenetho]

@JuliaGieb @nansenlegacy @APECS_Norway This is making me so happy💕

[Helene Skjeie Thorstensen @helenetho]

@nicvaliente @TER_Vienna @andreasarichter @MSCActions Congrats and good luck Nico🥳🥳

[Ecophy @Ecophy_CEBC]

William Jouanneau’s first PhD paper is out in @EnvSciTech! We studied the maternal transfer of legacy and emerging #PFAS to Eggs in an #Arctic #Seabird.

Can't wait for @NorskHavforsk to talk about #ScandiFish. ScandiFish is a costume made #metabarcoding reference database for #Scandinavian fish communities for #MiFish primers.
Made in collaboration with @matstopel & @alexander_eiler.

Harmful #pollutants are found in the tiniest #Arctic #animals. Julia Giebichenstein, PhD at @UniOslo and member of @nansenlegacy will tell you all on "The Arctics invisible #pollution" on 11.10.21 at Brygg Oslo.

📣New paper alert with novel results from the Arctic polar night 🌚✨. We found low mercury levels in Barents Sea fish during the winter, but distinct inter-specific and spatial differences: https://t.co/grdK3zoMY2
