Recent work explores how prehistoric societies sustainedably managed coastal resources and how colonial activities altered animal domestication and ecosystems in the Maya region. She frequently collaborates with institutions like NORCE Norwegian Research Centre and the University of New Mexico. Her presentations include talks at the Society of American Archaeology (2024) and the Southern African Society for Quaternary Research (2024). While no awards are explicitly listed, her active research contributions suggest engagement with academic recognition processes. She has no listed advisees or grants explicitly detailed beyond funding sources. Labs/teams include affiliations with SapienCE (Centre for Early Sapiens Behaviour) and SEAS Programme (Sustainability and Early Societies), though specific lab roles aren't detailed.

Jelena Kolarevic is Professor at the Norwegian Fisheries College, UiT The Arctic University of Norway, Tromsø. She leads research on recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS), water-quality engineering, biosensor technology and salmon welfare, and participates in several national projects aimed at automating land-based salmon farming. Research interests revolve around the interface of technology and biology in closed-containment aquaculture. Her group develops real-time monitoring tools (acoustic, optical and biochemical sensors) to track fish behaviour, respiratory activity and water chemistry, with the overarching goal of optimising growth conditions and safeguarding welfare. Recent work explores how ozonation, photoperiod, CO₂ levels and soundscapes affect salmon performance and stress physiology. Across 60+ articles since 2020 she has advanced: (i) RAS water treatment (ozone, organic matter, disinfection by-products), (ii) sensor-based welfare indicators (accelerometers, ventilation loggers, passive acoustics), and (iii) physiological responses to fasting, salinity, CO₂ and oxidative disinfectants. These studies collectively underpin evidence-based protocols for large-scale, land-based salmon production. She currently heads or co-leads competitive grants including CandRAS (education for RAS industry), LAKSVEL (operational welfare indicators), Balanst (real-time control of fish-environment-energy) and multiple Nofima–UiT industry projects on ozonation, degassing and biosecurity. Professor Kolarevic is actively involved in supervising PhD and MSc candidates within the Aquaculture and Environment research group, although individual student names are not listed in the supplied text.

Kjartan Østbye is a full Professor at the University of Inland Norway (INN), based at the Faculty of Applied Ecology, Agricultural Sciences and Biotechnology within the Department of Forestry and Wildlife Management . He is an active member of the research group E4 – Evenstad ecology, evolution and environment , contributing to internationally recognised research in ecology, conservation genetics and fish biology. Research interests revolve around how freshwater organisms adapt to environmental change. His work integrates evolutionary ecology , landscape genetics and ecotoxicology to investigate: adaptive divergence and speciation in post-glacial fishes (sticklebacks, whitefish, Arctic charr); genetic consequences of habitat fragmentation on amphibians and mammals; mercury biomagnification and amino-acid dynamics in subarctic lake food webs; remote-sensing approaches to predict habitat properties and inform conservation. Across more than 50 peer-reviewed publications since the early 1990s, his research exhibits a clear trajectory: early ecotoxicological studies on aluminium toxicity in salmonids evolved into sophisticated genomic and modelling approaches that illuminate how landscape structure, predation regimes and climatic gradients shape biodiversity. Recent work couples field sampling with next-generation sequencing and GIS-based habitat modelling to forecast species distributions under future climate scenarios. Scientific awards & recognition : while specific honours are not listed in the provided text, the volume and impact of his publications (many in top ecology and evolution journals) indicate sustained international recognition. Advising & grants : the extensive publication record implies supervision of numerous graduate students and post-doctoral researchers; however, individual student names are not supplied in the text. External funding has supported large-scale comparative studies across Scandinavian lakes and long-term translocation experiments with Arctic charr. Laboratory & field teams : work is centred at INN’s Evenstad campus, with active field programmes in boreal and subarctic lake systems and collaborations extending to Sweden and beyond.
