Species distribution models as a tool for early detection of the invasive Raphidiopsis raciborskii in European lakes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)In freshwater habitats, invasive species and the increase of cyanobacterial blooms have been identified as a major cause of biodiversity loss. The invasive cyanobacteria Raphidiopsis raciborskii a toxin-producing and ... -
Recycled aggregates derived from excavation materials — mechanical performance and identification of weak minerals
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022) -
Genomic reaction norms inform predictions of plastic and adaptive responses to climate change
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Genomic reaction norms represent the range of gene expression phenotypes (usually mRNA transcript levels) expressed by a genotype along an environmental gradient. Reaction norms derived from common-garden experiments are ... -
Machine Learning: The Backbone of Intelligent Trade Credit-Based Systems
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Technology has turned into a significant differentiator in the money and traditional recordkeeping systems for the financial industry. To depict two customers as potential investors, it is mandatory to give the complex ... -
The Redesigned Serpens, a Low-Cost, Highly Compliant Snake Robot
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The term perception-driven obstacle-aided locomotion (POAL) was proposed to describe locomotion in which a snake robot leverages a sensory-perceptual system to exploit the surrounding operational environment and to identify ... -
Adaptive ML-based technique for renewable energy system power forecasting in hybrid PV-Wind farms power conversion systems
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Large scale integration of renewable energy system with classical electrical power generation system requires a precise balance to maintain and optimize the supply–demand limitations in power grids operations. For this ... -
Impact of Separator Thickness on Temperature Distribution in Single Cell of Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cell Operated at Higher Temperature of 90 °C and 100 °C
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The New Energy and Industry Technology Development Organization (NEDO) road map (Japan, 2017) has proposed that a polymer electrolyte fuel cell (PEFC) system, which operates at a temperature of 90 °C and 100 °C, be applied ... -
A Conceptual Model for Blockchain-Based Agriculture Food Supply Chain System
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)In agriculture supply chain management, traceability is a crucial aspect to ensure food safety for increasing customer loyalty and satisfaction. Lack of quality assurance in centralized data storage makes us move towards ... -
Cascaded Multilevel Inverter-Based Asymmetric Static Synchronous Compensator of Reactive Power
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The topology of the static synchronous compensator of reactive power for a low-voltage three-phase utility grid capable of asymmetric reactive power compensation in grid phases has been proposed and analysed. It is implemented ... -
Host in reserve: The role of common shrews (Sorex araneus) as a supplementary source of tick hosts in small mammal communities influenced by rodent population cycles
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Rodents often act as important hosts for ticks and as pathogen reservoirs. At north -ern latitudes, rodents often undergo multi- annual population cycles, and the peri -odic absence of certain hosts may inhibit the survival ... -
Classification of pig calls produced from birth to slaughter according to their emotional valence and context of production
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Vocal expression of emotions has been observed across species and could provide a non-invasive and reliable means to assess animal emotions. We investigated if pig vocal indicators of emotions revealed in previous studies ... -
Fishing for more data: Exploratory stock assessment of the data-limited brown crab (Cancer pagurus) stock in Norway
(Master thesis, 2022)Formal stock assessment is a key step in managing fisheries sustainably and preventing overexploitation (Hilborn, 2011). However, the majority of the world’s exploited stocks are considered data-limited and lack formal ... -
Assessing impact of fishing on growth of corkwing wrasse (Symphodus melops) and goldsinny wrasse (Ctenolabrus rupestris)
(Master thesis, 2022)Corkwing wrasse (Symphodus melops) and goldsinny wrasse (Ctenolabrus rupestris) are two temperate wrasse (Labridae) species that are targeted by commercial fishery due to their ability to reduce sea-lice infections. The ... -
Identifying protists along the Agder coastline using Illumina sequencing
(Master thesis, 2022)Environmental quality, sustainability and functioning of marine ecosystems are closely linked to species richness and diversity. Microalgae play key roles in coastal ecosystems contributing significantly to carbon flux ... -
The use of bioacoustics to assess the impact of environmental parameters on male pool frog (Phelophylax lessonae) call characteristics
(Master thesis, 2022)The purpose of this investigation was to use current methods of bioacoustic analysis to determine whether the environmental parameters of water temperature and background noise significantly affect the characteristics of ... -
Sea lice feeding behavior of wild and hatchery lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) under hatchery conditions.
