A tale of stress, reproduction, survival and climate change - Case study of the Norwegian Arctic fox (Vulpes lagopus) and measurement of glucocorticoids
(Master thesis, 2020)Klimaendringer setter arktik tundra under press; klimasensitive arter som gnagere kan få syklusen sin forstyrret som et resultat. Gnagere er for de fleste arktiske kjøttetere og omnivore en viktig del av deres diet. Når ... -
Abundance of planktonic sea lice in intensive sea farm locations at Frøya: January-September 2018
(Master thesis, 2019)Lepeiophtheirus salmonis og Caligus elongatus er dei to artane av havlus som som utgjer det største trugsmålet mot lakseoppdrett og villaks i Norge. Spreiing av lusa skjer hovudsakleg i planktoniske stadium. Kunnskap om ... -
Acclimation Potential to a Future Ocean Acidification Scenario in the Key Copepod Species Calanus finmarchicus: - with emphasis on the genetic contribution to the acclimation response
(Master thesis, 2014)Ocean acidification, as a result of the increased concentration of carbon dioxide in the ocean, poses a threat towards marine ecosystems through lowered pH and altered seawater chemistry. The marine copepod Calanus ... -
Accumulation of Gadolinium in organs of lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus)
(Master thesis, 2023)Sjeldne jordarter, også kjent som rare earth elements (REE) er grunnstoffer som vekker økende bekymring som forurensningskilder. Økt menneskelig bruk av REE har ført til rapportering av økte REE konsentrasjoner i naturen, ... -
Acute thermal tolerance correlates with longer-term warming tolerance but not growth during thermal stress in zebrafish
(Master thesis, 2019)For akvatiske ektoterme dyr medfører global oppvarming en økning i eksponering til både akutt-dødelige og langvarige ikke-dødelige temperaturutfordringer. Samtidig er sammenhengen mellom disse dyrenes yteevne og toleranse ... -
Acute Toxicity and Stress Gene Transcription in Two Copepod Species (Calanus finmarchicus and Calanus glacialis) Exposed to Fresh Crude Oil WSF
(Master thesis, 2011)Increasing oil activities from the gas and oil industry may constitute a hazard towards the marine environment due to potential risks for accidents, such as oil spills. This study examine acute eects on mortality (LC50) ... -
Adaptation of a logical model that depicts psoriatic keratinocytes towards patient-specific psoriasis logical models
(Master thesis, 2022)Det finnes mange subgrupper av psoriasis, noe som gjør det utfordrende for leger å evaluere alvorlighetsgraden til pasientene. Sykdommen deles inn i alvorlig, moderat og mildt forløp, og disse alvorlighetsgradene styrer ... -
Aerial & Underwater Hyperspectral Imagery For Shallow Benthic Nature Type Mapping
(Master thesis, 2022)Natur i Norge (NiN) systemet klassifiserer naturtyper basert på miljøvariabler. Storskala kartlegging av bentiske naturtyper er vanskelig, ettersom lys utslukkes fort på dype områder, og grunt vann er vanskelig å forsere. ... -
Alien plant species in Svalbard
(Master thesis, 2012)Increased introductions combined with favorable growing conditions may enhance the presence and increase the success of alien plant species in High Arctic settlements. With global warming, the presence and success of alien ... -
Allyl isothiocyanate induces a shift in the cell cycle distribution of Arabidopsis thaliana
(Master thesis, 2013)Isothiocyanates (ITCs) are degradation products of glucosinolates present in members of the Brassicaceae familiy acting e.g. as herbivore repellents and antimicrobial compounds. Recent results indicate that allyl ITC (AITC) ... -
Altering the Glucosinolate Profile of Arabidopsis thaliana: Characterization and Impact on Resistance Against Botrytis cinerea
(Master thesis, 2017)The glucosinolate-myrosinase system is a well-known part of the Brassicacea plant immunity. This family includes several important crop species as well as the model organism Arabidopsis thaliana, thus encouraging and ... -
An assessment of critical steps in cultivating Palmaria palmata in Norwegian waters
(Master thesis, 2022)Makroalger som et bærekraftig alternativ har de siste tiårene fått økt oppmerksomhet da de har vist stort potensiale med mange bruksområder. Rødalgen Palmaria palmata er en av artene som har fått økt fokus grunnet dens ... -

An assessment of gains in conservation: A case study in Sør-Trøndelag, Norway
(Master thesis, 2012)SummaryForest ecosystems are important due to the services they are providing (e.g. food, timber, water and air clearance, etc.). This study investigated the change of forest habitat representation in the protected area ... -
An experimental test of optimal sampling behaviour in Siberian jays (Perisoreus infaustus)
(Master thesis, 2010)Optimal foraging models tend to assume that animals have perfect information. However, the world is constantly changing, and so it is likely that animals benefit from gathering better knowledge much of the time. Therefore, ... -
An investigation into animal personality in early benthic phase European lobster (Homarus gammarus)
(Master thesis, 2016)Consistent individual differences in behavior, also known as animal personality, have been described across a wide range of taxa. In this study, evidence for animal personality was investigated in the European lobster, an ... -
An investigation of biofouling and its management in Norwegian salmon aquaculture, and the potential effects on cleaner fish behaviour
(Master thesis, 2020)Det høyfrekvente notvaskregimet i norsk lakseoppdrett, som er sterkt drevet av å sikre avlusningseffekten og appettitten for lus hos rensefisk, har store negative konsekvenser for merdmiljøet, fiskehelse \& velferd og ... -
Analysis and comparision of Transcription Factor - Target Gene databases using network analysis. - The gene regulatory network documented on the basis of experimental evidence is analysed and compared by the graph based analysis method of various resources of gene regulatory network available from various public resource database is performed.
