Summary of mire restoration and evaluation of two methods for monitoring mire restoration in Norway
(Master thesis, 2022)Intakte myrer har store karbonlagre, men har i mange tilfeller tidligere blitt drenerte for skogbruk eller landbruk. Derfor ble det igangsatt en plan for restaurering av våtmark av Miljødirektoratet i 2016, med mål om å ... -
Summer and winter MgCO3 levels in the skeletons of Arctic bryozoans
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)In the Arctic, seasonal patterns in seawater biochemical conditions are shaped by physical, chemical, and biological processes related to the alternation of seasons, i.e. winter polar night and summer midnight sun. In ... -
Supporting Fall Prevention for the Elderly by Using Mobile and Ubiquitous Computing
(Master thesis, 2013)Approximately one third of the elderly (over age 65) fall each year. Falls are the one of the main reasons of injury-related cases and the leading cause of accidental deaths among the elderly. The overwhelming majority of ... -
Survival and cause-specific mortality of harvested willow ptarmigan (Lagopus lagopus) in central Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Survival is a key demographic component that often varies as a result of human activities such as recreational harvest. Detailed understanding of seasonal variation in mortality patterns and the role of various risk factors ... -
Survival and growth of farmed, hybrid, and wild salmon during migration in the North Atlantic Ocean
(Master thesis, 2023)Aquaculture has become a significant source of food, surpassing wild fisheries, and contributes to global food security, economic growth, and poverty alleviation. Among various teleost species, Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar ... -
Survival rate and breeding outputs in a high Arctic seabird exposed to legacy persistent organic pollutants and mercury
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Chronic exposure to pollutants may represent a threat for wildlife.We tested whether adult survival rate, breeding probability and breeding success the year of sampling and the following year were affected by blood levels ... -
Sustainable management of populations impacted by harvesting and climate change
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The sustainable use of natural resources is critical for addressing the global challenges of today. Strategies for sustainable harvesting need to consider not only harvested species, but also other non-harvested species ... -
Sustainable strategies for harvesting predators and prey in a fluctuating environment
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The effects of harvest and fluctuating environment on inter-dependent predators and prey are complex and not well-known. We define a stochastic model where the predators and prey dynamically interact. The novelty of the ... -
Sweat responses during inactive recovery after high-intensity running in hot, dry and humid conditions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)This study investigated the relationship between high (85%) and low (19%) relative humidity (RH) and sweat rate during inactive recovery after high-intensity work in a hot environment (30 °C). Ten male subjects performed ... -
Swim for it: Effects of simulated fisheries capture on the post-release behaviour of four Great Barrier Reef fishes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)After being caught and released by a fishery, some animals may be sufficiently impaired so as to be vulnerable to predators. The duration and severity of post-release impairments have rarely been studied under natural ... -
Sympatric Atlantic puffins and razorbills show contrasting responses to adverse marine conditions during winter foraging within the North Sea
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Background: Natural environments are dynamic systems with conditions varying across years. Higher trophic level consumers may respond to changes in the distribution and quality of available prey by moving to locate new ... -
System responses to equal doses of photosynthetically usable radiation of blue, green, and red light in the marine diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Due to the selective attenuation of solar light and the absorption properties of seawater and seawater constituents, free-floating photosynthetic organisms have to cope with rapid and unpredictable changes in both intensity ... -
Systematic review of toxicity removal by advanced wastewater treatment technologies via ozonation and activated carbon
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Upgrading wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) with advanced technologies is one key strategy to reduce micropollutant emissions. Given the complex chemical composition of wastewater, toxicity removal is an integral parameter ... -
Systematic revision of Chone Krøyer, 1856, Dialychone Claparède, 1870 and Paradialychone Tovar-Hernández, 2008 (Sabellidae: Annelida) in Norwegian waters
(Master thesis, 2018)The species of Chone, Dialychone and Paradialychone (Sabellidae: Annelida) in Norwegian waters are assessed using morphological and molecular data. The monophyly of Chone, Dialychone, Paradialychone and Euchone is tested ... -
Systematically controlled decomposition mechanism in phosphorus flame retardants by precise molecular architecture
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Flame retardants (FR) are inevitable additives to many plastics. Halogenated organics are effective FRs but are controversially discussed due to the release of toxic gases during a fire or their persistence if landfilled. ... -
