Widespread glacial erosion on the Scandinavian passive margin
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)The topography in Scandinavia features enigmatic high-elevation low-relief plateau regions dissected by deep valleys and fjords. These plateau regions have long been interpreted as relict landforms of a preglacial origin, ... -
Widespread promoter methylation of synaptic plasticity genes in long-term potentiation in the adult brain in vivo.
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-03-23)Background: DNA methylation is a key modulator of gene expression in mammalian development and cellular differentiation, including neurons. To date, the role of DNA modifications in long-term potentiation (LTP) has not ... -

Width Notions for Ordering-Related Problems
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)We are studying a weighted version of a linear extension problem, given some finite partial order ρ, called Completion of an Ordering. While this problem is NP-complete, we show that it lies in FPT when parameterized by ... -
«…wie ich so die blasse gebirgige Ebene betrat…» Gestisk figurering som strategi i Robert Walsers sene prosastykker
(Master thesis, 2023-09-15)Denne masteroppgaven utforsker gestisk figurering som materiell og litterær strategi i den sveitsiske forfatteren Robert Walsers sene prosastykker. Det argumenteres for at Walser i de sene prosastykkene utvikler skrivestrategier ... -
Wikipedia as an arena and source for the public: a scandinavian comparison of "Islam"
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)This article compares Wikipedia as an arena and source for the public through analysis of articles on “Islam” across the three Scandinavian languages. Findings show that the Swedish article is continuously revised and ... -
Wikipedia based Query Expansion for Searching in Norwegian
(Master thesis, 2015-06-01)With the rapid increase of information available on the Internet, searching is becoming a daily operation. This thesis address the issue that arises when there is a difference between what the users are typing in the search ... -
Wild and farmed salmon (Salmo salar) as reservoirs for infectious salmon anaemia virus, and the importance of horizontal- and vertical transmission
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-04-16)The infectious salmon anaemia virus (ISAV) is an important pathogen on farmed salmon in Europe. The virus occurs as low- and high virulent variants where the former seem to be a continuous source of new high virulent ISAV. ... -
Will Climate Change Impact Polar NOx Produced by Energetic Particle Precipitation?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Energetic electron precipitation (EEP) is an important source of polar nitrogen oxides (NOx) in the upper atmosphere. During winter, mesospheric NOx has a long chemical lifetime and is transported to the stratosphere by ... -
Williams Syndrome neuroanatomical score associates with GTF2IRD1 in large-scale magnetic resonance imaging cohorts: A proof of concept for multivariate endophenotypes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-06-08)Despite great interest in using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for studying the effects of genes on brain structure in humans, current approaches have focused almost entirely on predefined regions of interest and had ... -
Willow canopies and plant community structure along an alpine environmental gradient
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2005)We examined the impact of Salix lapponum canopies on plantcommunity structure in five sites along a climatic gradient in aglacier foreland in alpine south Norway. Species richness is lowerinside canopies compared to outside ... -
Wilson line correlators beyond the large-Nc
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)We study hard 1 → 2 final-state parton splittings in the medium, and put special emphasis on calculating the Wilson line correlators that appear in these calculations. As partons go through the medium their color continuously ... -
Wind and wave extremes over the world oceans from very large ensembles
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-07)Global return values of marine wind speed and significant wave height are estimated from very large aggregates of archived ensemble forecasts at +240 h lead time. Long lead time ensures that the forecasts represent independent ... -
Wind coherence measurement by a single pulsed Doppler wind lidar
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-09)A single pulsed Doppler wind lidar, deployed at the FINO1 platform in the North Sea, has been used to monitor the lateral and vertical coherence of the along-wind component. To maximize the sampling frequency of the ... -
Wind Energy on the High Seas: Regulatory Challenges for a Science Fiction Future
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)This paper aims to study the current regulation and governance of wind energy turbines on the high seas and detect regulatory challenges. We focus on the existing regulatory framework to develop marine wind farms in areas ... -
Wind Farm Layout Optimization - A case study on maximizing the annual energy production in Creyke Beck B.
(Master thesis, 2016-06-01)For offshore wind farms, detailed planning, including wind farm design optimization, is becoming increasingly important to secure and increase the wind farm's revenue during its operational life time. Since the energy ... -
Wind Intensity Is Key to Phytoplankton Spring Bloom Under Climate Change
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-08-30)The onset of the spring bloom (OSB) occurs when phytoplankton growth exceeds losses and is promoted by a transition from deep convection to a shallow mixing layer concurrent with increasing light intensities in nutrient-enriched ... -
Wind of Change: Discourse Collisions and Coalitions in the Fosen Vind Case
(Master thesis, 2023-05-22)I 2021 annullerte Høgsterett konsesjonane til to vindparkar på Fosenhalvøya i Trøndelag. Vindparkane blei vurdert som eit brot på dei lokale samiske reindriftssamane sin rett til “å dyrke sin eigen kultur”, som er beskytta ... -
Wind Stress in the Coastal Zone: Observations from a Buoy in Southwestern Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-08-26)Several studies have focused on the investigation of the wind stress in open ocean conditions where coastal processes were negligible. However, the direction and magnitude of the wind stress vector in coastal areas are ...
