  • Zoobooth: A portable, open-source and affordable approach for repeated size measurements of live individual zooplankton 
    Broch, Catharina; Heuschele, Jan David (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)
    Repeated size measurements of individual animals are valuable data for many research questions, but it is often hard to obtain without causing stress or damage to the animal. We developed a video-based approach called ...
  • Zooplankton diversity and dispersal by birds; Insights from different geographical scales 
    Hessen, Dag Olav; Jensen, Thomas Correll; Walseng, Bjørn (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)
