Investigation of the inflammatory response in human monocytes and macrophages exposed to micro- and nanoplastics in vitro
(Master thesis, 2023)Mennesker eksponeres for mikro- og nanoplast (MNP) i økende mengder gjennom inntak av mat og drikke, innånding og hudkontakt. Likevel er innvirkningen disse partiklene kan ha på menneskers helse fortsatt ikke fullt ut ... -
Is ambient light during the high Arctic polar night sufficient to act as a visual cue for zooplankton?
(Journal article, 2015)The light regime is an ecologically important factor in pelagic habitats, influencing a range of biological processes. However, the availability and importance of light to these processes in high Arctic zooplankton communities ... -
Is basal metabolic rate associated with recruit production and survival in free-living house sparrows?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Life history theory predicts that available energy is limited and needs to be allocated among different processes such as growth, reproduction and self-maintenance. Basal metabolic rate (BMR), a common measure of an animal's ... -
Is it possible to escape from a crocodile attack? Review of human and saltwater crocodile conflict in Asia in Australia
(Master thesis, 2022)Human and saltwater crocodile conflict has been increasing yearly in crocodile-inhabited countries in Asia and Australia. This study was conducted to foster the safety of humans and the wellbeing of saltwater crocodiles, ... -
Is the rate of metabolic ageing and survival determined by basal metabolic rate in the zebra finch?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014-09-29)The relationship between energy metabolism and ageing is of great interest because aerobic metabolism is the primary source of reactive oxygen species which is believed to be of major importance in the ageing process. We ... -
Is there genetic variation in the response to competition intensity in juvenile brown trout Salmo trutta?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)Effects of intraspecific competition intensities on the relative performance (growth and movement) of juvenile brown trout Salmo trutta originating from nine different families were tested in tank experiments and in ... -
Is there plasticity in developmental instability? The effect of daily thermal fluctuations in an ectotherm
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Diversified bet‐hedging (DBH) by production of within‐genotype phenotypic variance may evolve to maximize fitness in stochastic environments. Bet‐hedging is generally associated with parental effects, but phenotypic variation ... -
Isbjørnens effekt på fugl i et arktisk klima i endring - Sluttrapport for Svalbards miljøvernfond
(NINA Rapport;1163, Research report, 2015)Arktis blir stadig varmere og utbredelsen av havis blir mindre. Det forandrer leveområdet til de mange artene som er avhengige av havis. Isbjørnen er avhengig av havis for å jakte på sel, og økende lengde på den isfrie ... -
Ivaretagelse av ville pollinatorer og planter tilknyttet kulturlandskapet i byutviklingen. Oppsummering av forskningsprosjektet BE(E) DIVERSE
(NIBIO Rapport, Research report, 2023)Det er en global nedgang av ville pollinatorer, og hovedårsaken til dette er at leveområdene deres er under press og går tapt på grunn av urbanisering og andre arealendringer. I BE(E) DIVERSE prosjektet har vi derfor studert ... -

(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Japanese quails (Coturnix japonica) were exposed in ovo to tris(1,3-dichloro-2-propyl) phosphate (TDCIPP; 500 ng/µl), Dechlorane Plus (DP; 500 ng/µl), or a 1:1 mixture of these two to investigate the effects on liver and ... -
Jellyfishing in Europe: Current status, knowledge gaps, and future directions towards a sustainable practice
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Jellyfish are often described as a nuisance species, but as our understanding shifts to more ecosystem-based conceptions, they are also recognized as both important components of marine ecosystems and a resource for humans. ... -
Jointly creating digital abstracts: dealing with synonymy and polysemy
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Background Ideally each Life Science article should get a ‘structured digital abstract’. This is a structured summary of the paper’s findings that is both human-verified and machine-readable. But articles can contain a ... -
K-selection as microbial community management strategy: A method for improved viability of larvae in aquaculture
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Aquaculture has the potential to become a major food supplier in a world with an increasing human population, and increased consumption of fish will likely have positive health implications. For marine aquaculture, the ... -
