Lipid metabolism and diapause timing in Calanus copepods: The impact of predation risk, food availability and oil exposure
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2021:355, Doctoral thesis, 2021)Calanoid copepods of the Calanus genus have an important ecological role as energetic links between primary producers and higher trophic level species in the North Atlantic and Arctic Oceans. Most individuals spend a large ... -
Lipid metabolism in Calanus finmarchicus is sensitive to variations in predation risk and food availability
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Late developmental stages of the marine copepods in the genus Calanus can spend extended periods in a dormant stage (diapause) that is preceded by the accumulation of large lipid stores. We assessed how lipid metabolism ... -
Lipids and fatty acids development in lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) larvae fed with different start feeding diets (Artemia, cirripedia, copepod (Acartia tonsa) and formulated diet
(Master thesis, 2022)Salmon lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) infestations on Salmonids (Salmo salar) in cages has brought Norwegian aquaculture to a stable production since 2012. Many chemotherapeutic , chemical, and mechanical approaches have ... -
Litter type and termites regulate root decomposition across contrasting savanna land-uses
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Decomposition is a vital ecosystem process, increasingly modified by human activity. Theoretical frameworks and empirical studies that aim to understand the interplay between human land-use, macro-fauna and decomposition ... -
Liverworts from the largest of the United States: a checklist for Alaska
(Journal article, 2015)We report 294 liverwort taxa in 267 species for the State of Alaska, excluding the Aleutian Islands,15 taxa are listed as doubtful and an additional 17 of the previous reports are rejected as erroneous. The checklist is ... -

Local Ecological Knowledge for Improved Biodiversity Conservation at Indawgyi Wildlife Sanctuary, Myanmar
(Master thesis, 2020)Bevaring av biologisk mangfold i Myanmar står overfor store utfordringer. Det kontinuerlige økonomiske presset for å utnytte landets naturressurser truer de naturlige økosystemer. Verneområder har blitt etablert de to siste ... -
Local People Knowledge on Bushmeat Hunting in the Serengeti Ecosystem: A Case Study of Topi (Damaliscus lunatus)
(Master thesis, 2017)Illegal harvesting is considered the most significant threat to biodiversity in conservation in Africa. The Serengeti National Park (SENAPA), Tanzania, is facing a similar problem since its establishment in the 1950s. ... -
Local variations in species composition on Laminaria hyperborea stipes as response of degree of exposure and impact by aquaculture
(Master thesis, 2018)Laminaria hyperborea kelp forest is a vitally important habitat that provides feeding ground, hiding space and habitat for numerous other species of both fauna and flora. Approximately 80 % of the total Norwegian algae ... -
Location is everything, but climate gets a share: analyzing small-scale environmental influences on breeding success in the white-throated dipper
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Ecological and evolutionary effects of environmental variation on wild populations are of particular interest in a changing world. Large-scale environmental indices are classically used as environmental explanatory variables ... -
