Directional wave measurements from navigational buoys
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)In-situ wave measurements are often required by marine industry standards and for verification of coastal wave forecasts. Obtaining wave measurements is costly and it would be advantageous to utilize existing platforms ... -
Directional wave measurements using an autonomous vessel
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-08-01)An autonomous vessel, the Offshore Sensing Sailbuoy, was used for wave measurements near the Ekofisk oil platform complex in the North Sea (56.5º N, 3.2º E, operated by ConocoPhillips) from 6 to 20 November 2015. Being 100 ... -
Directly measured currents and estimated transport pathways of Atlantic Water between 59.58N and the Iceland-Faroes-Scotland Ridge
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-11-24)Using vessel-mounted acoustic Doppler current profiler data from four different routes between Scotland, Iceland and Greenland, we map out the mean flow of water in the top 400 m of the northeastern North Atlantic. The ... -
Direkte bruk av nanofluider som kjølevæske i en dieselmotor
(Master thesis, 2023-06-01)The work carried out in this thesis is the characterization and investigation of carbon- based nanofluids as a potential engine coolant for a single-cylinder diesel engine. Car- bon black particles could be sufficiently ... -
Disappearance of Pacific Water in the northwestern Fram Strait
(Journal article, 2005-07-28)Water of Pacific origin, entering the Arctic Ocean through the Bering Strait, exits the Arctic Ocean through the Canadian Archipelago and the Fram Strait. The amount and timing of Pacific Water export through these gates ... -
Discards of cod (Gadus morhua) in the Norwegian coastal fisheries: improving past and future estimates
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Discarding can be an unknown source of biases and uncertainties in stock assessments. Discarding patterns and quantities vary so a routine methodology for estimating discards is important to give a better picture of total ... -
Discovery of active off-axis hydrothermal vents at 9° 54′N East Pacific Rise
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Comprehensive knowledge of the distribution of active hydrothermal vent fields along midocean ridges is essential to understanding global chemical and heat fluxes and endemic faunal distributions. However, current knowledge ... -
Discovery of Nuclear-Encoded Genes for the Neurotoxin Saxitoxin in Dinoflagellates
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-05-18)Saxitoxin is a potent neurotoxin that occurs in aquatic environments worldwide. Ingestion of vector species can lead to paralytic shellfish poisoning, a severe human illness that may lead to paralysis and death. In ... -
The discovery of the Younger Dryas, and comments on the current meaning and usage of the term
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)The Younger Dryas (YD) cold event was discovered in Denmark by Hartz and Mithers in 1904 and the term coined by Hartz in 1912. It was identified as a lacustrine clay bed containing plant macrofossils of an Arctic flora, ... -
Discrete Approximations of BV solutions to Doubly Nonlinear Degenerate Parabolic Equations

Discriminating between surfaces of peripheral membrane proteins and reference proteins using machine learning algorithms
(Master thesis, 2019-04-05)In biology, the cell membrane is an important component of a cell and usually works as a “fence” to distinguish the inside and outside of a cell. The key role is to protect the cells from being interfered by their surroundings ... -
Discrimination of n-3 Rich Oils by Gas Chromatography
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2010-11-22)Exploring the capabilities of instrumental techniques for discriminating n-3 rich oils derived from animals is a very important though much neglected area that was emphasized more than 100 years ago. In this study the ... -
A discussion on turbulent and undular bores using the models from the shallow water equations and the dispersive system.
(Master thesis, 2010-05-26)The bore is a wave phenomenon that occurs in channels and rivers of shallow water. Referred to as a discharge wave, a bore is generated by a sudden increase of water flow. Bores appear in certain rivers as the tide pushes ... -
Disentangling effects and context dependencies of climate change on alpine plants
(Doctoral thesis, 2022-12-02)Klimaendringer byr på nye utfordringer for fjellplanter, og påvirker dem både direkte gjennom å endre fysiologiske prosesser, og indirekte gjennom endringer i interaksjoner mellom planter. Disse indirekte effektene kan ... -
Disentangling genetic and epigenetic determinants of ultrafast adaptation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)A major rationale for the advocacy of epigenetically mediated adaptive responses is that they facilitate faster adaptation to environmental challenges. This motivated us to develop a theoretical–experimental framework for ... -
Disentangling Obstacles to Knowledge Co-Production for Early-Career Researchers in the Marine Sciences
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Knowledge co-production involving researchers and non-academic actors is becoming increasingly important for tackling sustainability issues. Coastal and marine social-ecological systems are one example where knowledge ... -
Disentangling rock record bias and common-cause from redundancy in the British fossil record
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-09-04)The fossil record documents the history of life, but the reliability of that record has often been questioned. Spatiotemporal variability in sedimentary rock volume, sampling and research effort especially frustrates ... -
Disentangling source of moisture driving glacier dynamics and identification of 8.2 ka event: evidence from pore water isotopes, Western Himalaya
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Two atmospheric circulation patterns, the Indian Summer Monsoon (ISM) and mid-latitude Westerlies control precipitation and thus glacier variability in the Himalaya. However, the role of the ISM and westerlies in controlling ...
