Global warming makes polar cod grow larger in the Arctic Barents Sea
We studied the effect of changes in sea ice cover, sea temperature, and biomass of prey or predator on the length of polar cod. Our results show a significant negative effect of sea ice cover on length of all age groups of polar cod: Polar cod grow faster when there is less sea ice.

Match-mismatch dynamics between the Arctic cod and its main prey in the Norwegian-Barents Sea system
We assessed the effect of the predator−prey relationship on predator survival by developing a novel metric of predator−prey overlap using spatio-temporal statistical models. We found that the amount of overlap between cod larvae (length: 11−15 mm) and their prey explained 29 % of cod recruitment variability.

Professor Nils Chr. Stenseth med flere er kritisk til at universitetene stoppet forskningsprosjekter da koronaviruset «stengte» Norge.
