    • Hyperbenthic food-web structure in an Arctic fjord 

      McGovern, Maeve; Berge, Jørgen; Szymczycha, Beata; Węsławski, Jan Marcin; Renaud, Paul Eric (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-09-17)
      Current knowledge of the Arctic marine ecosystem is based primarily on studies performed during the polar day on the pelagic and benthic realms. Both the polar night and the hyperbenthic layer remain as substantial knowledge gaps in our understanding of the marine system at high latitudes. This study investigated the hyperbenthic food web in Kongsfjord, a high-latitude, ice-free fjord, in September ...

    • Hyperbenthic Food-Web Structure in Kongsfjord: A Two-Season Comparison using Stable Isotopes and Fatty Acids. 

      McGovern, Maeve (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2016-04-21)
      Current knowledge of the Arctic marine ecosystem is based primarily on studies performed during the polar day on the pelagic and benthic realms. Both the polar night and the hyperbenthic layer remain substantial knowledge gaps in the understanding of the marine system at high latitudes. To help address these knowledge gaps, this project investigates the hyperbenthic food web structure in Kongsfjord, ...

    • Implications of Coastal Darkening for Contaminant Transport, Bioavailability, and Trophic Transfer in Northern Coastal Waters 

      McGovern, Maeve; Evenset, Anita; Borgå, Katrine; Wit, Heleen de; Braaten, Hans Fredrik Veiteberg; Hessen, Dag Olav; Schultze, Sabrina; Ruus, Anders; Poste, Amanda (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-06-13)
      The increased transport of terrestrially derived organic material (tOM) from catchments to rivers and lakes is leading to browning of northern freshwaters.(1) Although the same environmental drivers can be expected to lead to widespread increases in tOM and subsequent darkening in adjacent coastal systems,(2) this has received considerably less attention, and long-term monitoring data for detecting ...

    • Land-Ocean Interactions in a Changing Arctic: Effects of terrestrial inputs on coastal food-web carbon source and contamination in Isfjorden, Svalbard 

      McGovern, Maeve (Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2022-04-29)
      Climate change driven increases in temperature are enhancing land-ocean connectivity in the coastal Arctic, with a range of implications for coastal food-webs and contaminant cycling. Terrestrial inputs are a direct source of carbon and legacy contaminants to coastal areas, but as a source of freshwater, nutrients and suspended inorganic sediments, they can also affect coastal food-webs and contaminant ...
