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 ... -
FishSizer: Software solution for efficiently measuring larval fish size
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Length and depth of fish larvae are part of the fundamental measurements in many marine ecology studies involving early fish life history. Until now, obtaining these measurements has required intensive manual labor and the ... -
Assessing Stress Resilience After Smolt Transportation by Waterborne Cortisol and Feeding Behavior in a Commercial Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) Grow-Out Recirculating Aquaculture System
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Sampling protocols and water quality sensors have been developed to assess fish health and welfare in recirculating aquaculture systems (RASs). Still, the use of fish-based non-invasive welfare indicators, reflecting the ... -
A diversity of patterns: 10-year trajectories of men and women diagnosed with psychosis for the first time. A time-geographic approach
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)People with severe mental illness face a different ‘interventional’ landscape compared to some decades ago, when mental hospitals were dominant, in Sweden as well as in the rest of the Western world. The aim ... -
Higher physical fitness levels are associated with less language decline in healthy ageing
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018) -
Graphene and graphene oxide on Ir(111) are transparent to wetting but not to icing
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Anti-icing coatings reduce the freezing onset temperature for water by changing the chemical and physical environment at the water-substrate interface to prevent ice nucleation and growth. Graphene oxide has several ... -
Categorising animals and habitats in disaster-related activities
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021) -
Autonomous Operation of Stationary Battery Energy Storage Systems—Optimal Storage Design and Economic Potential
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Global warming requires a changeover from fossil fuel based to renewable energy sources on the electrical supply side and electrification of the demand side. Due to the transient nature of renewables and fluctuating demand, ... -
Demographic responses to protection from harvesting in a long-lived marine species
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Marine protected areas (MPAs) are usually considered to have positive effects on the recovery of over-exploited populations. However, resolving the extent to which MPAs function according to their conservation goals ... -
Effects of repeated short episodes of environmental acidification on Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) from a landlocked population
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Chronic or repeated exposure to environmental contaminants may result in allostatic overload, a physiological situation in which the costs of coping affect long-term survival and reproductive output. Continuous measurements ... -
The planar two-body problem for spheroids and disks
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)We outline a new method suggested by Conway (CMDA 125:161–194, 2016) for solving the two-body problem for solid bodies of spheroidal or ellipsoidal shape. The method is based on integrating the gravitational potential ... -
Establishing the representativeness of available surface water scenarios for plant protection products in environmental risk assessment Opinion of the Panel on Plant protection Products of the Norwegian Scientific Committee for Food and Environment (VKM)in Norway -
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021) -
European Union legislation on macroalgae products
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Macroalgae-based products are increasing in demand also in Europe. In the European Union, each category of macroalgae-based products is regulated separately. We discuss EU legislation, including the law on medicinal ... -
Preprinting is positively associated with early career researcher status in ecology and evolution
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021) -
Effects of nitrogen enrichment on zooplankton biomass and N:P recycling ratios across a DOC gradient in northern-latitude lakes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)We used data from whole-lake studies to assess how changes in food quantity (phytoplankton biomass) and quality (phytoplankton community composition, seston C:P and N:P) with N fertilization affect zooplankton biomass, ... -
Toward a better understanding of fish‐based contribution to ocean carbon flux
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021) -
Long-term response of marine benthic fauna to thin-layer capping with powdered activated carbon in the Grenland fjords, Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The Grenland fjords in Norway have a long history of contamination by large emissions of dioxins and mercury. As a possible sediment remediation method in situ, thin-layer capping with powdered activated carbon (AC) mixed ... -
Integral functions of marine vertebrates in the ocean carbon cycle and climate change mitigation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)In the last decade, the ocean has absorbed a quarter of the Earth’s greenhouse gas emissions through the carbon (C) cycle, a naturally occurring process. Aspects of the ocean C cycle are now being incorporated into climate ... -
Investigation of temperature coefficients of PV modules through field measured data
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Varying broadband irradiance and temperature are generally known as the major factors influencing the performance of PV modules, but studies have also shown the substantial impact of spectral variations. In this work, a ...
