The Effect of Natural and Artificial Light on in situ Vertical Migration of Salmon Lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) Copepodids
(Master thesis, 2020)Det har blitt foreslått at de smittsomme og planktoniske copepodittene av lakselus Lepeophtheirus salmonis (Krøyer, 1837) oppsøker overflaten fordi det er der laksevertene sannsynligvis vil være. I tillegg har det tidligere ... -
The Effect of Nutrient Release from Fish Farms on the Lower Trophic Levels of the Marine Food Web in North Patagonia, Chile
(Master thesis, 2012)A mesocosm experiment was performed over 16 days during austral summer in 2010, in Northern Patagonia, Chile. Nutrients were added in 8 different concentrations along a gradient, simulating different levels of nutrients ... -
The effect of nutrition on important life-history traits in the marine copepod Calanus finmarchicus
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU;2016:54, Doctoral thesis, 2016)Summary of thesis: Copepods dominates the zooplankton biomass in all seas of the world and are probably the most numerous multicellular organism on earth. Calanus finmarchicus (Gunnerus 1770) is the dominating ... -

(Master thesis, 2011)Black-legged kittiwakes (Rissa tridactyla) breeding in the Arctic, are exposed to annual fluctuating environmental conditions. The impact of inter-year variations in environmental conditions on the blood concentrations of ... -
The Effect of Platelet Lysate as a Medium Supplement in Cultures of Human Multiple Myeloma
(Master thesis, 2014)Multiple myeloma (MM) is a cancer of antibody-producing plasma cells in the bone marrow. It is the second most frequent hematological malignancy and comprises 1 % of all cancer. Most human myeloma cell lines (hMCLs) derived ... -
The effect of purging on sexually selected traits through antagonistic pleiotropy with survival
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Sexually selected traits are expected to evolve to a point where their positive effect on reproductive success is counterbalanced by their negative effect on survival. At the genetic level, such a trade-off implies ... -
The effect of relatedness and pack size on territory overlap in African wild dogs
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Background Spacing patterns mediate competitive interactions between conspecifics, ultimately increasing fitness. The degree of territorial overlap between neighbouring African wild dog (Lycaon pictus) packs varies greatly, ... -
The effect of repeated handling on telomere dynamics, body condition, and short-term survival in chicks of the Black-legged Kittiwake (Rissa tridactyla)
(Master thesis, 2017)In the present study, effects of investigator disturbance on chicks of the Black-legged Kittiwake were investigated by looking at telomere dynamics, growth, and short-term survival. An experiment group was exposed to a ... -
