The effect of socioeconomic factors on local community recognition of ecosystem services and support for biodiversity conservation: A case study of local communities in and around the Shwe Sett Taw Wildlife Sanctuary
(Master thesis, 2021)Protected Areas (PA) were established for conservation purposes in the past, later inevitably integrated into the local community residing in and around those areas for a certain period of time. One of the most important ... -
The effect of surveillance fishing on migrated distance of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) during the spawning period
(Master thesis, 2022)Atlantisk laks (Salmo salar L.) har blitt utsatt for et økende antall trusler de siste tiårene, noe som har ført til synkende bestander og til og med utryddelse av enkelte bestander. En av de største truslene er tilstedeværelse ... -
The effect of warming and foliar fungi on insect communities in the alpine tundra of Dovre, Trøndelag
(Master thesis, 2024)Den alpine tundraen er spesielt sårbar ovenfor effekten av global oppvarming sammenlignet med andre økosystemer. Noen av disse effektene, som migrering av planter oppover fjellet, har allerede blitt studert i flere år, men ... -
The Effects of Antioxidants Supplementation on Asymmetric Dimethylarginine, Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor and C-reactive protein Levels in Female Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis
(Journal article, 2017)Background & Aims: Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is one of the common autoimmune diseases with unknown etiology. It has been suggested that antioxidant supplements may play a role in inflammation perpetuating process. This ... -
The Effects of Diet and Weather on Early-life Growth and Survival in Atlantic Puffin Nestlings in Northern Norway
(Master thesis, 2023)Den hurtige nedgangen i sjøfuglpopulasjoner i verden de siste tiårene har gjort forskning på effekter av klimaendringer og andre potensielle trusler mot sjøfulger mer og mer viktig. Enkelte hekkeparametere hos sjøfugler ... -
The Effects of Early-Life Mercury Exposure on Natal Recruitment in Black-Legged Kittiwakes Breeding in Svalbard
(Master thesis, 2023)Livskvaliteten tidlig i livet hos krykkje (Rissa tridactyla) bestemmes av flere økologiske og miljømessige faktorer som påvirker umiddelbar overlevelse, men som også kan ha langvarige effekter ved å justere den adulte ... -
THE EFFECTS OF EXCLUSION OF BROWSING MOOSE ON ABOVE GROUND CARBON STOCKS IN EARLY SUCCESSIONAL STAGES IN BOREAL FORESTS
(Master thesis, 2017)Climate change can occur due to the rising of CO2 in the atmosphere. Understanding factors that can increase atmospheric CO2 is very important to decrease global temperature. There are many publications that investigate ... -
The effects of habitat size and distance to forest edge on the occupancy dynamics of rock ptarmigan (Lagopus muta) in Norway
(Master thesis, 2019)Oppvarming som resultat av klimaendringer har hatt særskilt høy betydning i høyfjellsområder og viser oppvarmingsrater nærmere det dobbelte av den globale trenden. De alpine artene som oppholder seg i disse områdene er ... -
The effects of inbreeding on resting metabolic rate and thermal conductance in wild house sparrows (Passer domesticus)
(Master thesis, 2022)Menneskelige påvirkninger fører til at populasjoner blir mindre, mer fragmenterte og isolerte, som kan resultere i populasjonsstørrelser som er mer sårbare for innavl. Når innavl reduserer trekk som er nært knyttet til ... -
The effects of mechanical shock on cortisol production and bone deformities in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) eggs
