      The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (Ahr) is a ligand-activated transcription factor that mediates the toxicity of dioxins and dioxin-like compounds (DLCs) in vertebrates. Two clades of the Ahr family exist in teleosts (Ahr1 and ...
    • Expression of visual opsins in the retina of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) during smoltification 

      Viken, Eirik Næss (Master thesis, 2020-06-24)
      Abstract: The visual system of Atlantic salmon is highly adapted to their migratory and dynamic life-history, where the profound transformational process of smoltification is crucial. The retina contain both rod- and cone ...
    • Expressive Visualization and Rapid Interpretation of Seismic Volumes 

      Patel, Daniel (Doctoral thesis, 2009-10-27)
      One of the most important resources in the world today is energy. Oil and gas provide two thirds of the world energy consumption, making the world completely dependent on it. Locating and recovering the remaining oil and ...

      Poormohammadi, Mahdi (Doctoral thesis, 2013-10-11)
      Despite the great success of the Standard Model in describing many aspects of the experiments, there are compelling reasons that it needs to be improved. One of the major mysteries physics has been exploring is the composition ...
    • Extended Supersymmetry and Superfields 

      Olsen, Richard (Master thesis, 2010-08-01)
      This thesis concerns the reconstruction of N=1 supersymmetry, starting with the Standard Model. Next, we partially construct an N=2 superfield theory. The differential representation of the N=2 supercharges is found. Issues ...

      This manuscript extends the definition of the Absolute Standardized Mean Difference (ASMD) for binary exposure (M = 2) to cases for M > 2 on multiple imputed data sets. The Maximal Maximized Standardized Difference (MMSD) ...
    • Extending local magnitude ML to short distances 

      Luckett, Richard; Ottemöller, Lars; Butcher, Antony; Baptie, Brian (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      Local magnitudes calculated at stations less than 10 km from earthquakes in the British Isles are up to one unit of magnitude higher than local magnitudes calculated at more distant stations. This causes a considerable ...
    • Extending Whitney's extension theorem: nonlinear function spaces 

      Roberts, David M.; Schmeding, Alexander (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      We consider a global, nonlinear version of the Whitney extension problem for manifold-valued smooth functions on closed domains , with non-smooth boundary, in possibly non-compact manifolds. Assuming is a submanifold with ...
    • Extension of the hard-sphere model for particle-flow simulations 

      Kosinski, Pawel Jan; Balakin, Boris; Kosinska, Anna Dorota (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      Discrete element methods require appropriate models for particle-particle collisions. Usually, researchers use soft-sphere types of models where the collision dynamics is solved numerically. This makes the simulation ...
    • Extensional inheritance and surface processes as controlling factors of mountain belt structure 

      Erdős, Zoltán; Huismans, Ritske S.; van der Beek, Peter; Thieulot, Cedric (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-12)
      Surface processes and inherited structures are widely regarded as factors that strongly influence the evolution of mountain belts. The first-order effects of these parameters have been studied extensively throughout the ...
    • Extensions in graph normal form 

      Walicki, Michal (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Graph normal form, introduced earlier for propositional logic, is shown to be a normal form also for first-order logic. It allows to view syntax of theories as digraphs, while their semantics as kernels of these digraphs. ...
    • An extensive common‐garden study with domesticated and wild Atlantic salmon in the wild reveals impact on smolt production and shifts in fitness traits 

      Skaala, Øystein; Besnier, Francois; Borgstrøm, Reidar; Barlaup, Bjørn Torgeir; Sørvik, Anne Grete Eide; Normann, Eirik; Østebø, Britt Iren; Hansen, Michael Møller; Glover, Kevin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-02-19)
      Interactions between domesticated escapees and wild conspecifics represent a threat to the genetic integrity and fitness of native populations. For Atlantic salmon, the recurrent presence of large numbers of domesticated ...
    • Extensive intraspecies cryptic variation in an ancient embryonic gene regulatory network 

      Torres Cleuren, Yamila Nicole; Ewe, Chee Kiang; Chipman, Kyle C; Mears, Emily R; Wood, Cricket G; Al-Alami, Coco Emma Alma; Alcorn, Melissa R; Turner, Thomas L; Joshi, Pradeep M; Snell, Russell G; Rothman, Joel H (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-08-15)
      Innovations in metazoan development arise from evolutionary modification of gene regulatory networks (GRNs). We report widespread cryptic variation in the requirement for two key regulatory inputs, SKN-1/Nrf2 and MOM-2/Wnt, ...

      Seafloor volcanic eruptions are difficult to directly observe due to lengthy eruption cycles and the remote location of mid-ocean ridges. Volcanic eruptions in 2005–2006 at 9°50′N on the East Pacific Rise have been well ...
    • Extra Dimensions at Particle Colliders 

      Dvergsnes, Erik Wolden (Doctoral thesis, 2004-11-05)
    • Extra-pair mating and evolution of cooperative neighbourhoods 

      Eliassen, Sigrunn; Jørgensen, Christian (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-07-02)
      A striking but unexplained pattern in biology is the promiscuous mating behaviour in socially monogamous species. Although females commonly solicit extra-pair copulations, the adaptive reason has remained elusive. We use ...
    • Extra-pair paternity explains cooperation in a bird species 

      Krams, Indrikis A.; Mennerat, Adele; Krama, Tatjana; Krams, Ronalds; Joers, Priit; Elferts, Didzis; Luoto, Severi; Rantala, Markus J.; Eliassen, Sigrunn (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      In many social animals, females mate with multiple males, but the adaptive value of female extra-pair mating is not fully understood. Here, we tested whether male pied flycatchers (Ficedula hypoleuca) engaging in extra-pair ...
