Comparing land use impacts using ecosystem quality, biogenic carbon emissions, and restoration costs in a case study of hydropower plants in Norway
Lillesund, Vilde Fluge; Hagen, Dagmar; Michelsen, Ottar; Foldvik, Anders; Barton, David Nicholas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Purpose Habitat destruction is today the most severe threat to global biodiversity. Despite decades of efforts, there is still no proper methodology on how to assess all aspects of impacts on biodiversity from land use and ... -
Demonstrating a new framework for the comparison of environmental impacts from small- and large-scale hydropower and wind power projects
Bakken, Tor Haakon; Aase, Anne Guri; Hagen, Dagmar; Sundt, Håkon; Barton, David Nicholas; Lujala, Paivi (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Climate change and the needed reductions in the use of fossil fuels call for the development of renewable energy sources. However, renewable energy production, such as hydropower (both small- and large-scale) and wind power ... -
Integrated hydrological risk analysis for hydropower projects
Bakken, Tor Haakon; Barton, David Nicholas; Charmasson, Julie (Chapter, 2019)The production of electricity from hydropower is exclusively determined by the availability of water. Upstream water use such as irrigation and drinking water supply, down-stream constraints and climate change are just ... -
Metodikk for å fastsette miljømål for sterkt modifiserte vannforekomster. Auravassdraget som eksempel
Finstad, Anders Gravbrøt; Barton, David Nicholas; Jensen, Arne Johan; Johnsen, Bjørn Ove; Järnegren, Johanna; Sandlund, Odd Terje (NINA rapport;292, Research report, 2007)Bakgrunnen for dette prosjektet er et behov fra DN og NVE om å gi en naturvitenskapelig og samfunnsøkonomisk vurdering av miljømålfastsetting i sterkt modifiserte vannforekomster (SMVF). Miljømålet i SMVF er godt økologisk ... -
Modeling the effects of alternative mitigation measures on Atlantic salmon production in a regulated river.
Adeva Bustos, Ana; Hedger, Richard David; Fjeldstad, Hans-Petter; Alfredsen, Knut; Sundt, Håkon; Barton, David Nicholas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)As part of the investigation of a new and optimized environmental flow regime in a regulated river (Mandalselva, Norway), a modeling study was conducted on the trade-offs between the production of Atlantic salmon (Salmo ... -

Catrinu-Renström, Maria Daniela; Barton, David Nicholas; Bakken, Tor Haakon; Marttunen, Mika; Mochet, Andrea Mammoliti; May, Roelof Frans; Hanssen, Frank Ole (Report;, Research report, 2013) -
Multi-criteria decision analysis in Bayesian networks - diagnosing ecosystem service trade-offs in a hydropower regulated river
Barton, David Nicholas; Sundt, Håkon; Adeva Bustos, Ana; Fjeldstad, Hans-Petter; Hedger, Richard David; Forseth, Torbjørn; Köhler, Berit; Aas, Øystein; Alfredsen, Knut; Madsen, Anders L. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The paper demonstrates the use of Bayesian networks in multicriteria decision analysis (MCDA) of environmental design alternatives for environmental flows (eflows) and physical habitat remediation measures in the Mandalselva ... -
The potential of geospatial analysis and Bayesian networks to enable i-Tree Eco assessment of existing tree inventories
Cimburova, Zofie; Barton, David Nicholas (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Valuing the ecosystem services of urban trees is important for gaining public and political support for urban tree conservation and maintenance. The i-Tree Eco software application can be used to estimate regulating ecosystem ... -
Use of Multi-Criteria Involvement Processes to Enhance Transparency and Stakeholder Participation at Bergen Harbour, Norway
Sparrevik, Lars Magnus; Barton, David Nicholas; Oen, Amy MP; Nagothu, Sekhar; Linkov, Igor (Journal article, 2011)Use of participatory stakeholder engagement processes could be important to reduce the risk of potential conflicts in managing contaminated sites. Most stakeholder engagement techniques are qualitative in nature and require ...
