Are Reservoirs Water Consumers or Water Collectors? Reflections on the Water Footprint Concept Applied on Reservoirs
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)IPCC Special Report on Renewable Energy Sources (2011) revealed potentially very high water consumption rates from hydropower production compared to other renewable technologies, but suffered from few studies and methodological ... -
Articulating the new urban water paradigm
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Urban water systems in industrialized countries have underpinned unprecedented improvements in urban living standards through effective drinking water supply, sanitation and drainage. However, conventional urban water ... -
Assessing and Mitigating Ice-Jam Flood Hazards and Risks: A European Perspective
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The assessment and mapping of riverine flood hazards and risks is recognized by many countries as an important tool for characterizing floods and developing flood management plans. Often, however, these management plans ... -
Assessing energy-smartness in smart cities
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The massive urbanization process registered since 1950s and projected to continue for the coming decades is posing a crucial issue for the management of existing cities and the planning of future ones. Smart cities are ... -
Assessing macrophyte seasonal dynamics using dense time series of medium resolution satellite data
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The improved spatial and temporal resolution of latest-generation Earth Observation missions, such as Landsat 8 and Sentinel-2, has increased the potential of remote sensing for mapping land surface phenology in inland ... -
Assessing soil index parameters to determine the frost susceptibility of crushed rock aggregates
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)In Norway, crushed rock aggregates are widely used in all layers of pavement infrastructures. Frost heave severely affected the Norwegian road network during cold winters of 2009/10 and 2010/11, including newly built roads. ... -
Assessing the effects of four SUDS scenarios on combined sewer overflows in Oslo, Norway: evaluating the low-impact development module of the mike urban model
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Paved surfaces, increased precipitation intensities in addition to limited capacity in the sewer systems, cause a higher risk of combined sewer overflows (CSOs). Sustainable drainage systems (SUDS) offer an alternative ... -
Assessing the performances and transferability of graph neural network metamodels for water distribution systems
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Metamodels accurately reproduce the output of physics-based hydraulic models with a significant reduction in simulation times. They are widely employed in water distribution system (WDS) analysis since they enable ... -
Assessing the robustness of raingardens under climate change using SDSM and temporal downscaling
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Climate change is expected to lead to higher precipitation amounts and intensities causing an increase of the risk for flooding and combined sewer overflows in urban areas. To cope with these changes, water managers are ... -
Assessing Visual Preferences of the Local Public for Environmental Mitigation Measures of Hydropower Impacts—Does Point-of-View Location Make a Difference?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Hydropower is a highly appreciated climate-friendly source of energy production. However, it has non-negligible negative impacts on the environment and landscape aesthetics where the energy is produced, affecting the ... -
Assessment of carbon dioxide emissions during production, construction and use stages of asphalt pavements

Assessment of future water availability under climate change, considering scenarios for population growth and ageing infrastructure
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Climate change is likely to cause higher temperatures and alterations in precipitation patterns, with potential impacts on water resources. One important issue in this respect is inflow to drinking water reservoirs. Moreover, ... -
Assessment of future water availability under climate change, considering scenarios for population growth and ageing infrastructure
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Climate change is likely to cause higher temperatures and alterations in precipitation patterns, with potential impacts on water resources. One important issue in this respect is inflow to drinking water reservoirs. Moreover, ... -
Assessment of the impacts of landscape patterns on water quality in Trondheim rivers and Fjord, Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Due to the impacts of hydrological and ecological processes on water quality, discharges from upstream catchments have induced significant pollution to the recipients. This study aims to investigate the possible pollution ... -
Assessment of the steady glide phase in ski jumping
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The purpose of this investigation was to compare how key variables of the steady glide phase relate to performance in the two hill sizes used in World Cup and Olympic competitions, i.e, normal and large hills. In this ... -
Asset management for blue-green infrastructures: a scoping review
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Urban drainage systems have developed way beyond the traditional piped combined or separate sewer systems. Many ‘new’ systems are being introduced, ranging from stormwater infiltration facilities to green roofs. However, ... -
Asymmetric tide in Lake Vallunden (Spitsbergen)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)We observed strongly asymmetric tide in a channel connecting the Van Mijen Fjord and Lake Vallunden in Spitsbergen. The channel is approximately 100 m long, 10 m wide, and 1–2 m deep. Asymmetric tide was also observed in ... -
At Differing Scales: The Commonalities Between Green Leasing and Urban FM from the perspectives of Sustainable Urban Development Projects
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Purpose The purpose of this study is to look at what Urban Facilities Management (FM) and Green Leasing have in common and the degree to which they are ultimately reliant on one another. Whilst both are similar in terms ... -
