Approaching the Arctic: the occurrence of Parin’s spinyfin Diretmichthys parini (Beryciformes: Diretmidae) in the Nordic Seas
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Two adult specimens of the tropical to subtropical fish species Diretmichthys parini are reported from the North Sea and the northern Norwegian Sea, respectively. Both were accidentally caught as bycatch by commercial ... -
Approaching the boundary problem: Self-determination, inclusion, and the unpuzzling of transboundary conflicts
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)In recent decades, decisionmakers have increasingly faced conflicts juxtaposing demands for self-determination and inclusion. Political theorists term this juxtaposition “the boundary problem.” They have offered normative ... -
Approaching trade in pre-state and early state societies

Appropriate waist circumference cut points for identifying insulin resistance in black youth: a cross sectional analysis of the 1986 Jamaica birth cohort
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2010-12-07)Background While the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) has ethnic specific waist circumference (WC) cut-points for the metabolic syndrome for Asian populations it is not known whether the cut-points for black populations ... -
The appropriation of a religion: The case of Zoroastrianism in contemporary Russia
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013-10-10)This paper distinguishes between the (ontological) creation, (historical) emergence and (legal) ‘making’ of religion. Many religions claim plausibility by invoking long chains of (invented) traditions, while some post-modern ... -
An approximate hybrid method for modeling of electromagnetic scattering from an underground target
(Doctoral thesis, 2010-12-09)The detection of a potential petroleum reservoir is achieved through inversion of electromagnetic data acquired in sea floor receivers. Inversion of electromagnetic data requires a number of repeated solves of the ... -
Approximating Acyclicity Parameters of Sparse Hypergraphs
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2009)The notions of hypertree width and generalized hypertree width were introduced by Gottlob, Leone, and Scarcello (PODS'99, PODS'01) in order to extend the concept of hypergraph acyclicity. These notions were further generalized ... -
Approximating cube roots of integers, after Heron’s Metrica III.20

Approximation algorithms in combinatorial scientific computing
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)We survey recent work on approximation algorithms for computing degreeconstrained subgraphs in graphs and their applications in combinatorial scientific computing. The problems we consider include maximization versions of ... -
Approximation in (poly-) logarithmic space
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)We develop new approximation algorithms for classical graph and set problems in the RAM model under space constraints. As one of our main results, we devise an algorithm for d–Hitting Set that runs in time nO(d2+(d/ε)), ... -
Apps as Companions: How Quantified Self Apps Become Our Audience and Our Companions
(Palgrave Pivot, Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2018)Self-tracking apps gather intimate information about our daily lives. Sometimes, they take the role of a confidante, an anthropomorphised companion we can trust. Humans have long confided in non-human companions, such as ... -
Aquaculture relevant stressors and their impacts on skin and wound healing in post-smolt Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.)
(Doctoral thesis, 2018-11-30)The work described in this thesis focuses on the response mechanisms in the skin of post-smolt Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) under the following challenging conditions: <ul> i. The effect of high biomass and low specific ... -
Aquaculture-driven evolution of the salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) mtDNA genome
(Master thesis, 2022-06-01)Widespread resistance towards pyrethroids, a pesticide that has been extensively used in salmonid aquaculture to control sea lice, is reported in the salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis). The resistance mechanism has ... -
Aquaculture-driven evolution of the salmon louse mtDNA genome
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Resistance toward the antiparasitic pyrethroid, deltamethrin, is reported in the Atlantic salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis salmonis), a persistent ectoparasite of farmed and wild salmonids. The resistance mechanism ... -
Aquaculture-driven evolution: distribution of pyrethroid resistance in the salmon louse throughout the North Atlantic in the years 2000–2017
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The parasitic salmon louse, and its documented resistance to chemotherapeutants, represents the most persistent environmental challenge to global salmonid aquaculture. We used a genetic marker associated with pyrethroid ... -
Aquaporin evolution in fishes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-07-26)Aquaporins represent a primordial group of transmembrane solvent channels that have been documented throughout the living biota. This facet alone emphasizes the positive selection pressure for proteins associated with ... -
The Arabidopsis (ASHH2) CW domain binds monomethylated K4 of the histone H3 tail through conformational selection
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Chromatin post‐translational modifications are thought to be important for epigenetic effects on gene expression. Methylation of histone N‐terminal tail lysine residues constitutes one of many such modifications, executed ... -
Arabisk-norsk kontrastiv grammatikk. Er det læringsfremmende å drive kontrastiv grammatikkundervisning for arabisktalende norskinnlærere med lite skolebakgrunn ved hjelp av skriftlig, tospråklig materiell?
(Master thesis, 2016-11-21)I denne oppgaven belyser jeg ulike aspekter ved grammatikkundervisning for arabisktalende norskinnlærere med lite skolebakgrunn. Utgangspunktet for oppgaven er et kontrastivt undervisningsopplegg i grammatikk som vi laget ... -
