• Hermansen, G.H., Hjort, N.L., and Kjesbu, O.S. (2015). Recent advances in statistical methodology applied to the Hjort liver index time series 1859-2012 and associated influential factors. Accepted for publication in the Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences (for their special issue related to the scientific legacy of Johan Hjort). [The Hjort time series in question concerns liver quality for the Atlantic cod (skrei, Gadus morhua). Its roots lie with the classic Hjort 1914 publication, then giving liver data for 1880 to 1913, one of the first ever published teleost time series. Various efforts of Kjesbu and co-authors have then led to an extended time series 1859 to 2012, ostensibly the longest series of marine science.]
