Towards a more climate-resilient agricultural sector in Norway
(Master thesis, 2023)Landbruk og klimaet påvirker hverandre i stor grad. Landbruket er svært avhengig av stabile økosystemer, samtidig som det er ansvarlig for 19-29% av globale drivhusgassutslipp og den viktigste driveren til biodiversitetstap ... -
Towards an engineering tool for the prediction of running ductile fractures in CO2 pipelines
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)A prerequisite for the deployment of CO2 capture and storage (CCS) is to establish a large network of high-pressure transport pipelines. It is then vital to assess new and existing pipeline designs for running ductile ... -
Towards comparable carbon credits: Harmonization of lca models of cellulosic biofuels
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Decarbonization programs are being proposed worldwide to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from transportation fuels, using Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) models or tools. Although such models are broadly accepted, varying ... -
Towards EU climate neutrality: Progress, policy gaps and opportunities
(Book, 2024)Based on an assessment of more than 80 indicators, we found that more efforts are needed across all sectors to achieve the EU climate objectives from 2030 to 2050, and particularly in buildings, transport, agriculture and ... -
Towards inclusion of plastic pollution in Life Cycle Assessments: Impacts of entanglement from species to ecosystem quality level
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2024:353, Doctoral thesis, 2024)Continuous inputs of plastic into the ocean degrade marine ecosystem quality, necessitatinginterventions from local to global scales. As the impacts of mismanaged plastic are largely absent from Life Cycle Assessments ... -
Towards robust, authoritative assessments of environmental impacts embodied in trade: Current state and recommendations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Global multiregional input‐output databases (GMRIOs) became the standard tool for tracking environmental impacts through global supply chains. To date, several GMRIOs are available, but the numerical results differ. This ... -
Towards Simpler and More Affordable Heating and Ventilation Systems for Deep Energy Retrofit of Norwegian Detached Houses
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2024:233, Doctoral thesis, 2024) -
Towards the incorporation of surface acoustic waves for improving the detection of nanoplasmonic biosensors
(Master thesis, 2021)Kreft er en av de ledende dødsårsakene i verden. Med Verdens helseorganisasjon sin forventede økning i antall nye krefttilfeller, vil tidlig kreftpåvisning og -diagnose være nøkkelfaktorer for å redusere dødeligheten og ... -
Tracer gas techniques for airflow characterization in double skin facades
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Monitoring airflow rates and fluid dynamics phenomena in the ventilated cavity is a challenging aspect of the experimental assessment of the performance of double-skin facades (DSF). There are various methods to characterize ... -
Tracing global supply chains to air pollution hotspots
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)While high-income countries have made significant strides since the 1970s in improving air quality, air pollution continues to rise in many developing countries and the world as a whole. A significant share of the pollution ... -
Tracking and sizing of particles in the Mie scattering regime using a laser scanning technique
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2020:219, Doctoral thesis, 2021) -
Trade and the role of non-food commodities for global eutrophication
(Journal article, 2018)The oversupply of nutrients (phosphorous and nitrogen) in fresh and marine water bodies presents a serious ecosystem threat due to impacts on water quality through eutrophication. With agriculture characterized as a primary ... -
Trade linked global aluminium cycle - An overview of supply chain and expansion of model to differentiate beverage can cycle
(Master thesis, 2017)Since the advent of industrialization, humans have been exploiting natural resources more than ever. Extracting oil, wood, minerals, ores and other materials from lithosphere, there has been a massive change in peoples ... -
Trading-off ecosystem services for better ecological restoration: A case study in the Loess Plateau of China
(Journal article, 2020)Balancing trade-off between multiple ecosystem services (ESs) is critical for restored ecosystem, including in the Loess Plateau of China where ESs are undergoing significant changes. In this study, the ESs were quantified ... -
Trailing edge vortex shedding in hydraulic turbines and the effect of stream-wise vorticity on vortex induced vibrations
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2021:42, Doctoral thesis, 2021)Experiments as well as some numerical simulations were conducted investigating the resonance region of vortex induced vibrations for different trailing edges of a hydrofoil in channel flow. The study focuses on the ... -
Trans-arctic re-routing of container vessels using the MariTEAM model: A comparative analysis of short- and long-term climate change impacts
(Master thesis, 2022)Maritim skipsfart står for 80 % av verdenshandelen i volum, og ettersom etterspørselen forventes å øke, vil også eksosutslippene knyttet til fartøysaktivitet øke. Arktis varmes opp dobbelt så raskt som det globale ... -
Transcritical R744 refrigeration systems for supermarket applications: Current status and future perspectives
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Visible signs of climate change call for urgent actions on food retail industry, since such a sector is characterized by an abundant carbon footprint. Being CO2 (or R744) recognised across the world as the most promising ... -
Transforming conventional hydropower plants into pumped storage by turbine replacement
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2024:207, Doctoral thesis, 2024)While the global community has started to realize the impact of the climate changes, the global temperatures are rising, extreme weather occurs more frequently and certain species are struggling to adapt. To slow down the ... -
