(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background: This study aimed to clarify the interrelationship and additive effects of contact force (CF), power and application time in both conventional and high-power short-duration (HPSD) settings. Methods: Among 38 ... -
Impacts of Covid-19 on Norwegian salmon exports: A firm-level analysis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)A rapidly growing literature investigates how the recent Covid-19 pandemic has affected international seafood trade along multiple dimensions, creating opportunities as well as challenges. This suggests that many of the ... -
The impacts of COVID-19 pandemic on service delivery and treatment outcomes in people living with HIV: a systematic review
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Introduction The COVID-19 epidemic and various control and mitigation measures to combat the widespread outbreak of the disease may affect other parts of health care systems. There is a concern that the COVID-19 pandemic ... -
Impacts of forest fire on understory species diversity in canary pine ecosystems on the island of La Palma
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021-11-25)Forest fires are drivers of spatial patterns and temporal dynamics of vegetation and biodiversity. On the Canary Islands, large areas of pine forest exist, dominated by the endemic Canary Island pine, Pinus canariensis C. ... -
Impacts of future climate on local water supply and demand – A socio-hydrological case study in the Nordic region
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Study region Fårö island, part of Region Gotland, Sweden. Study focus Despite its importance for proactive planning and management, understanding of how future climate and socioeconomic trends may interact to influence ... -
The Impacts of Gender Attitudes and Socio-Economic Determinants on Ideal Fertility: A Study among Young Men in Ghana
(Master thesis, 2017-06-24)Introduction Fertility is one of most important factors of demographic studies; alarming Total Fertility Rate (TFR) threatens developing indicators in many ways. Gender equality, child and infant mortality, achieving of ... -
The Impacts of governmental policies on the investment decision for renewable energies in the Swiss electricity market
(Master thesis, 2014-06-29)Switzerland faces two major challenges in the electricity sector. The existing nuclear power plants will be phased out and at the same time new renewable electricity sources should increase their share in production. These ... -
Impacts of Greenland Block Location on Clouds and Surface Energy Fluxes over the Greenland Ice Sheet
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Clouds and blocking activity have been implicated as causes of increased Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) melt in the 21st century. Although Greenland blocks (i.e., long-lasting, mostly stationary anticyclones) generally reduce ... -
Impacts of Ionospheric Ions on Magnetic Reconnection and Earth's Magnetosphere Dynamics
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Ionospheric ions (mainly H+, He+, and O+) escape from the ionosphere and populate the Earth's magnetosphere. Their thermal energies are usually low when they first escape the ionosphere, typically a few electron volt to ... -
Impacts of Peak-Flow Events on Hyporheic Denitrification Potential
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Subsurface flows, particularly hyporheic exchange fluxes, driven by streambed topography, permeability, channel gradient and dynamic flow conditions provide prominent ecological services such as nitrate removal from streams ... -
Impacts of predation by Eurasian otters on Atlantic salmon in two Norwegian rivers
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)1. The return of the Eurasian otter (Lutra lutra) to western Norway has sparked human–predator conflicts because otters prey on vulnerable Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) populations. Although predation may not be the ultimate ... -
