The Role of Indirect Genetic Effects in Evolutionary Rescue
(Master thesis, 2020)Globale miljøendringer fører til en kraftig nedgang i biodiversitet og de tilhørende økosystemtjenestene. Det å forstå mekanismene som påvirker en populasjons evne til å tilpasse seg disse miljøendringene er kritisk kunnskap ... -
The role of platelet activating factor in activation of growth arrested keratinocytes and re-epithelialisation
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2008:179, Doctoral thesis, 2008)Skin disorders such as psoriasis and chronic wounds are characterised by chronic inflammation accompanied by hyper-proliferation. Inflammation and proliferation are also phases in normal cutaneous wound healing. Upon ... -
The role of PRL-3 in Multiple Myeloma cells in the context of BCR signaling
(Master thesis, 2021)Mylomatose, eller Multiple Myloma (MM) er en B-cellet ondartet kreftart som er kjennetegnet av samling og spredning av plastmaceller som utskiller antistoffer igjennom beinmargen. MM er en sykdom med høy genetisk heterogenitet ... -
The role of rural education programs on Conservation Biology - Unravelling and possibly affect the understanding of ecosystem services and attitudes toward nature amongst people living in the Serengeti-Mara ecosystem
(Master thesis, 2018)Today, human-induced impacts like climate change, human population growth and land use change are negatively affecting the biodiversity and ecosystems, which are important for human well-being. Africa is amongst the places ... -
The Role of the Arctic Fox in the Breeding Success of the Snow Bunting
(Master thesis, 2022)The reproductive success of breeding birds can be determined by many different factors. One factor often associated with the failure of a brood is nest depredation. To avoid depredation, different bird species implement ... -
The role of the copepod Calanus finmarchicus in affecting the fate of marine oil spills
(Doctoral thesis at NTNU;2015:304, Doctoral thesis, 2015)Background: Oil spills in marine environments are subject to biological, physical and chemical weathering processes, including entrainment of oil as droplets in the water column. The oil droplets with diameter < 100 μm ... -
The role of two zinc finger protein transcription factors in Arabidopsis thaliana cell wall integrity maintenance
(Master thesis, 2022)Alle planteceller er omringet av en kompleks struktur av polysakkarider og proteiner som kalles for celleveggen. I tillegg til å sørge for mekanisk støtte, virker celleveggen som en barriere mellom plantecellen og dens ... -
The Role of Wildlife Education in Conservation Biology: Can awareness change Locals` Attitudes towards the Endangered African Wild Dog (Lycaon pictus) ?
(Master thesis, 2013)In this master thesis, I will concentrate on the increasing interest for the research field of conservation biology, and what it can do to contribute to turn the future development in a more sustainable direction for a ... -
The socio-ecological impacts of the invasive house crow (Corvus splendes) in Tanzania
(Master thesis, 2023)Invasjonsarter er en av de største truslene for biologisk mangfold i naturen i dag. Lokal kunnskap og holdninger til invasjonsarter kan bidra til å forstå hvilken påvirkning de har på miljøet. Ved å avdekke allmennhetens ... -
The stress hormone corticosterone in a marine top predatorreflects short-term changes in food availability
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)In many seabird studies, single annual proxies of prey abundance have been used to explain variability in breeding performance, but much more important is probably the timing of prey availability relative to the breeding ... -
The stress of being contaminated? Adrenocortical function and reproduction in relation to persistent organic pollutants in female black legged kittiwakes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)High levels of environmental pollutants such as persistent organic pollutants (POPs) including PCB and DDT have been found in the Arctic and many of those pollutants may impair reproduction through endocrine disruption. ... -
