Quality Characteristics of Sous-vide Cooked Atlantic Herring--Effect of Natural Plant Antioxidants and Frozen Storage
(Master thesis, 2020)Atlantic herring has a high nutritional value and is a good source of lipids with a high content of PUFAs (polyunsaturated fatty acids) in addition to protein, minerals (calcium, phosphorus, magnesium) and vitamins (A, D). ... -
Quality of Atlantic Cod Frozen in Cell Alive System, Air-Blast, and Cold Storage Freezers
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Gutted Atlantic cod, packed in cartons, were frozen immediately after killing in a magnetic field (cell alive system). The results were compared with traditional air-blast freezing or by putting the cartons directly in a ... -
Quantifying fixed individual heterogeneity in demographic parameters: Performance of correlated random effects for Bernoulli variables
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)1. An increasing number of empirical studies aim to quantify individual variation in demographic parameters because these patterns are key for evolutionary and ecological processes. Advanced approaches to estimate individual ... -
Quantifying professionalism in peer review
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background The process of peer-review in academia has attracted criticism surrounding issues of bias, fairness, and professionalism; however, frequency of occurrence of such comments is unknown. Methods We evaluated ... -
Quantifying regional feed utilization, production and nutrient waste emission of Norwegian salmon cage aquaculture
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)ABSTRACT: We analyzed growth performance and waste emissions of cage aquaculture responding to biophysical conditions that vary along the coastline of Norway. The analysis is based on a published mass balance model predicting ... -
Quantitative and qualitative consequences of reduced pollen loads in a mixed-mating plant
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Greater pollination intensity can enhance maternal plant fitness by increasing seed set and seed quality as a result of more intense pollen competition or enhanced genetic sampling. We tested experimentally these effects ... -

Quantitative assessment of observed versus predicted responses to selection
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Although artificial-selection experiments seem well suited to testing our ability to predict evolution, the correspondence between predicted and observed responses is often ambiguous due to the lack of uncertainty estimates. ... -
Quantitative confocal laser scanning microscopy: optimization for in vivo and in vitro analysis of intracellular transport
(Doctoral thesis at NTNU;978-82-326-1163-8, Doctoral thesis, 2015) -
Quantitative genetic modeling and inference in the presence of nonignorable missing data
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Natural selection is typically exerted at some specific life stages. If natural selection takes place before a trait can be measured, using conventional models can cause wrong inference about population parameters. When ... -
Quantitative mismatch between empirical temperature-size rule slopes and predictions based on oxygen limitation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)In ectotherms, adult body size commonly declines with increasing environmental temperature, a pattern known as the temperature-size rule. One influential hypothesis explaining this observation is that the challenge of ... -
Quantitative transcriptomics, and lipidomics in evaluating ovarian developmental effects in Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) caged at a capped marine waste disposal site
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)In the present study, a previously capped waste disposal site at Kollevåg (Norway) was selected to study the effects of contaminant leakage on biomarkers associated with Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) reproductive endocrinology ... -
Radiative forcing geoengineering causes higher risk of wildfires and permafrost thawing over the Arctic regions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Radiative forcing geoengineering is discussed as an intermediate solution to partially offset greenhouse gas-driven warming by altering the Earth’s energy budget. Here we use an Earth System Model to analyse the response ... -
Radiological detection of nephrocalcinosis in farmed Atlantic salmon Salmo salar L.

Rainfall seasonality predicts the germination behaviour of a tropical dry-forest vine
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Seed dormancy is considered to be an adaptive strategy in seasonal and/or unpredictable environments because it prevents germination during climatically favorable periods that are too short for seedling establishment. ... -

Rapid Determination of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) in Harbour Porpoise Liver Tissue by HybridSPE®–UPLC®–MS/MS
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)A rapid hybrid solid phase extraction (HybridSPE®) protocol tailored to ultra-performance liquid chromatography–electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC®–ESI–MS/MS) analysis was developed for the determination ... -
Rapid determination of thyroid hormones in blood plasma from Glaucous gulls and Baikal seals by HybridSPE®-LC-MS/MS
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)A rapid hybrid solid phase extraction (HybridSPE®) protocol tailored to liquid chromatography–electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (LC–ESI–MS/MS) analysis, was developed for the determination of four thyroid ... -
Rapid development of brood-parasitic cuckoo embryos cannot be explained by increased gas exchange through the eggshell
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Obligate avian brood parasites lay their eggs in hosts' nests and play no role in the provisioning of the progeny. Many parasites, including Cuculus cuckoos, hatch before their hosts and the altricial chick evicts hosts ... -
Rare earth element distribution in the ne Atlantic: Evidence for benthic sources, longevity of the seawater signal, and biogeochemical cycling
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Seawater rare earth element (REE) concentrations are increasingly applied to reconstruct water mass histories by exploiting relative changes in the distinctive normalised patterns. However, the mechanisms by which water ...
