Climate–ecosystem modelling made easy: The Land Sites Platform
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Dynamic Global Vegetation Models (DGVMs) provide a state-of-the-art process-based approach to study the complex interplay between vegetation and its physical environment. For example, they help to predict how terrestrial ... -
Climatic and biogeographical drivers of functional diversity in the flora of the Canary Islands
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Aim Functional traits can help us to elucidate biogeographical and ecological processes driving assemblage structure. We analysed the functional diversity of plant species of different evolutionary origins across an island ... -
Climatic and environmental factors influencing occurrence and distribution of macroalgae – a fjord gradient revisited
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)During the last decades, trends of increasing sea water temperatures and precipitation have been observed in the North Atlantic. Increasing sea water temperatures are expected to have strong effects on coastal benthic ... -
Climatic mean and interannual variation of northern Barents Sea water mass distribution and circulation. A combined study of ROMS, current and hydrography observations
(Master thesis, 2008-06-02)Evaluating current measurements, hydrography observations and model (ROMS) results of the northern Barents Sea, water mass distribution and circulation is investigated. Water mass exchange with the Arctic Ocean is linked ... -
A climatic trigger for the giant Troll pockmark field in the northern North Sea
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-04)Pockmarks are seafloor craters usually formed during methane release on continental margins. However, the mechanisms behind their formation and dynamics remain elusive. Here we report detailed investigations on one of the ... -
Climatology of aerosol optical properties in Northern Norway and Svalbard
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-12-07)We present comparisons between estimates of the aerosol optical thickness and the °Angstr¨om exponent in Northern Norway and Svalbard based on data from AERONET stations at Andenes (69 ◦N, 16 ◦E, 379 m altitude) and Hornsund ... -
Climatology of polar lows impacting Norway
(Master thesis, 2016-06-01)Polar lows (PLs), mesoscale cyclones in high latitudes, impacting Norway are studied in this thesis. A climatology of PLs in the Nordic seas for the period 1979-2015 is made, by applying a cyclone detection and tracking ... -
Clinoform systems: Review and dynamic classification scheme for shorelines, subaqueous deltas, shelf edges and continental margins
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-10)Clinoforms are inclined and normally basinward-dipping horizons developed over a range of spatial and temporal scales in both siliciclastic and carbonatic systems. The study of clinoform successions underpins sequence ... -
Clique-Based Neural Associative Memories
(Doctoral thesis, 2021-11-15)Auto-associative memories store a set of patterns and retrieve them by resorting to a part of their contents. This thesis focuses on developing and extending a type of associative memories relying on a sort of coded neural ... -
Clitellate worms (Annelida) in late-glacial and Holocene sedimentary DNA records from the Polar Urals and northern Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-11-26)While there are extensive macro‐ and microfossil records of a range of plants and animals from the Quaternary, earthworms and their close relatives amongst annelids are not preserved as fossils and therefore the knowledge ... -
Cloned and outbred Atlantic salmon display equal parasite dispersion when infected with the salmon louse
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-11)The salmon louse is an ectoparasitic copepod that infects salmonids in the marine environment. This parasite causes a major economic and biological challenge to the Atlantic salmon farming industry, and efforts to increase ... -
Cloning, expression and purification of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar, L.) neuroglobin
(Journal article, 2012)Neuroglobin (Ngb) exists only in small amounts in salmon brain. In order to study the protein in more detail salmon neuroglobin (sNgb) was cloned, hetereologously expressed in E.coli and purified. The protein had red color ... -
Cloning, tissue and ontogenetic expression of the taurine transporter in the flatfish Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-04)Flatfish species seem to require dietary taurine for normal growth and development. Although dietary taurine supplementation has been recommended for flatfish, little is known about the mechanisms of taurine absorption in ... -
Close Relatives of Feedback Vertex Set Without Single-Exponential Algorithms Parameterized by Treewidth
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The Cut & Count technique and the rank-based approach have lead to single-exponential FPT algorithms parameterized by treewidth, that is, running in time 2^𝒪(tw)n^𝒪(1), for Feedback Vertex Set and connected versions of ... -
Close to open—Factors that hinder and promote open science in ecology research and education
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022-12-21)The Open Science (OS) movement is rapidly gaining traction among policy-makers, research funders, scientific journals and individual scientists. Despite these tendencies, the pace of implementing OS throughout the scientific ... -
Close-Kin Mark-Recapture Models
(Master thesis, 2019-07-09)Close-Kin Mark-Recapture (CKMR) is a recent extension of the ordinary mark–recapture methods used to estimate animal abundance and other population parameters. Where ordinary mark–recapture only consider the subsequent ... -
A closer look into the microbiome of microalgal cultures
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Although bacteria are commonly co-occurring in microalgal cultivation and production systems, little is known about their community structure and how it might be affected by specific microalgal groups or growth conditions. ... -
Clostridium thailandense sp. nov., a novel CO2-reducing acetogenic bacterium isolated from peatland soil
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Some species of the genus Clostridium are efficient acetate producers and have been deemed useful for upgrading industrial biogas. An acetogenic, strictly anaerobic, Gram-stain-positive, subterminal endospore-forming ... -
Clumped isotope thermometry as a new tool for reconstructing Miocene climate change
(Doctoral thesis, 2020-01-27)This PhD thesis focuses on the clumped isotope paleothermometer and its application to foraminiferal carbonates buried in ocean sediments. Based on new proxy evidence for ocean temperature, the thesis aims at improving our ... -
