Research:

 

Cnidaria: Distribution and general biology of Octocorallia and Scleractinia in the Trondheimsfjord.
Cirripedia: Zoogeography, general biology of cirripedian species (Balanidae, Lepadidae).
Mollusca: Systematics, zoogeography and general biology of Polyplacophora, Prosobranchia and Bivalvia in the North Atlantic and Arctic.
Biotoxicology: influence of antifouling paint components on cod larvae and lumpfish embryos and larvae.
Hydrography: Long time series on water exchange in the Trondheimsfjord.

Quite a number of projects and surveys from the above fields are ongoing. Selected ones to be concluded in 2006-2007 are: Prosobranchia in the Trondheimsfjord; Polyplacophora in Icelandic waters; Marine molluscs around Svalbard; Phycical parameters influencing the depth distribution of cold water corals in the Trondheimsfjord.
