A Global Model for Marine Invasive Species Distribution via Plastic Debris
Wilson, Elisha James (Master thesis, 2023)Marine økosystemer trues av spredningen av fremmede arter gjennom konkurranse om ressurser, endring av habitat og overføring av sykdommer. Disse faktorene kan akselerere nedgangen til innfødte arter og forstyrre økosystemers ... -
Controlling biodiversity impacts of future global hydropower reservoirs by strategic site selection
Dorber, Martin; Arvesen, Anders; Gernaat, David; Verones, Francesca (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Further reservoir-based hydropower development can contribute to the United Nations’ sustainable development goals (SDGs) on affordable and clean energy, and climate action. However, hydropower reservoir operation can lead ... -
Global characterization factors for quantifying the impacts of increasing water temperature on freshwater fish
Li, Dan; Dorber, Martin; Barbarossa, Valerio; Verones, Francesca (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Water temperature is an abiotic master variable for the survival of aquatic organisms. Global warming alters the thermal regimes of rivers and, thus, poses a threat to freshwater biodiversity. To address the impacts of ... -
Global extinction probabilities of terrestrial, freshwater, and marine species groups for use in Life Cycle Assessment
Verones, Francesca; Kuipers, Koen Jacobus Josefus; Núñez, Montse; Rosa, Francesca; Scherer, Laura; Marques, Alexandra; Michelsen, Ottar; Barbarossa, Valerio; Jaffe, Benjamin; Pfister, Stephan; Dorber, Martin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Human activities put pressure on the natural environmental and the Life Cycle Assessment methodology (LCA) is becoming a more prevalent tool to assess the relevant environmental impacts from products and processes on ... -
Linking inventories and impact assessment models for addressing biodiversity impacts: mapping rules and challenges
Sanyé‑Mengual, E; Valente, António; Biganzoli, F; Dorber, Martin; Verones, Francesca; Marques, Alexandra; Ortigosa Rodriguez, J; De Laurentiis, Valeria; Fazio, Simone; Sala, Serenella (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Purpose An adequate matching between the nomenclature of elementary flows in life cycle inventory (LCI) databases and life cycle impact assessment (LCIA) methods is key for ensuring the proper application of life cycle ... -
Modeling net land occupation of hydropower reservoirs in Norway for use in life cycle assessment
Dorber, Martin; May, Roelof Frans; Verones, Francesca (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Increasing hydropower electricity production constitutes a unique opportunity to mitigate climate change impacts. However, hydropower electricity production also impacts aquatic and terrestrial biodiversity through freshwater ... -
More than half of data deficient species predicted to be threatened by extinction
Borgelt, Jan; Dorber, Martin; Høiberg, Marthe Alnes; Verones, Francesca (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species is essential for practical and theoretical efforts to protect biodiversity. However, species classified as “Data Deficient” (DD) regularly mislead practitioners due to their uncertain ... -
New indicator of habitat functionality reveals high risk of underestimating trade-offs among sustainable development goals: The case of wild reindeer and hydropower
Dorber, Martin; Panzacchi, Manuela; Strand, Olav; Van Moorter, Bram (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Although biodiversity is crucial for Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), following the current trajectory, we risk failing SDG 15. Using a new indicator quantifying the loss of functional habitat (habitat that is ... -
Optimal combination of bioenergy and solar photovoltaic for renewable energy production on abandoned cropland
Leirpoll, Malene Eldegard; Næss, Jan Sandstad; Cavalett, Otávio; Dorber, Martin; Hu, Xiangping; Cherubini, Francesco (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Ambitious climate change mitigation scenarios require large-scale deployment of bioenergy and solar photovoltaics. Utilizing recently abandoned cropland for renewable energy production is a promising option for energy ... -
Quantifying biodiversity impacts of hydropower electricity production within the framework of Life Cycle Assessment
Dorber, Martin (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2019:161, Doctoral thesis, 2019)The United Nations developed 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for the transition into a more sustainable world. One of the central aspects of the SDGs is the provisioning of sustainable energy, covered by SDG 7 ... -
