Occupational exposure to air pollutants emitted from in situ burning of offshore oil spills: a large-scale field study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background: In-situ burning (ISB) could be an effective cleanup method during spills. This study aims to study occupational exposure to pollutants emitted from offshore, large-scale ISB-experiments among personnel on ... -
Occupational Hazards and Use of Personal Protective Equipment among Small Scale Welders in Lusaka, Zambia
(Master thesis, 2015-05-15)Introduction Welding is associated with various inherent occupational hazards which may result in severe consequences on health of workers performing this task. Very little information exists regarding health hazards and ... -
Occupational issues of adults with ADHD
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013-02-17)Background: ADHD is a common neurodevelopmental disorder that persists into adulthood. Its symptoms cause impairments in a number of social domains, one of which is employment. We wish to produce a consensus statement on ... -
Occupational noise exposure and hearing loss: A study on knowledge, attitude and practice among Tanzanian iron and steel workers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)We assessed Knowledge Attitude and Practice (KAP) regarding occupational noise exposure, Noise-induced hearing loss, audiometry and use of hearing protection devices among iron and steel factory workers exposed to high ... -
Occupational Status Is Compromised in Adults With ADHD and Psychometrically Defined Executive Function Deficits
(Journal article, 2014-09)Objective: Problems related to executive function (EF) are frequently reported in adults with ADHD. However, only a subgroup of patients show deficits on common neuropsychological tests designed to measure EF. We investigated ... -
Occupying a Square? : A Recognition Theory of Social Movements in the Age of Wealth-Induced Political Inequality
(Doctoral thesis, 2023-01-20)Vår tid er preget av sosiale konflikter. Fra og med Den arabiske våren og de spanske Indignados i 2011 har vi sett et tilbakevendende globalt konfliktfenomen i form av alt fra Occupy Wall Street og den israelske sosiale ... -
Occurrence and phenomenology of hallucinations in the general population: A large online survey
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Although epidemiological studies report that hallucinations occur in 6–15% of the general population, little is known about their phenomenology. To overcome this paucity, this study investigates the phenomenological ... -
Occurrence and severity of myasthenic crisis in an unselected Turkish cohort of patients with myasthenia gravis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a disorder of the neuromuscular junction that can deteriorate into myasthenic crisis, involving weakness of bulbar and respiratory muscles. In this study, we describe the clinical manifestations ... -
The occurrence of biomineralisation products in four lichen species growing on sandstone in western Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2002)High performance thin-layer chromatography/thin-layer chromatography, X-ray diffraction, and scanning electron microscopy analysis of thallus and lichen-rock interface samples, were undertaken to characterize biomineralization ... -
Occurrence of salmonid alphavirus and piscine orthoreovirus-1 infections in migrating salmon (Salmo salar L.) post-smolt in western Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Viral diseases are a serious problem in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) farming in Norway, often leading to reduced fish welfare and increased mortality. Disease outbreaks in salmon farms may lead to spread of viruses to ... -
Occurrence Statistics of Horse Collar Aurora
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Horse collar aurora (HCA) are an auroral feature where the dawn and dusk sector auroral oval moves polewards and the polar cap becomes teardrop shaped. They form during prolonged periods of northward interplanetary magnetic ... -
The occurrence, pathology and morphological development of Paranucleospora theridion in salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis)
(Master thesis, 2012-06-04)In 2003 a microsporidian parasite was discovered in salmon lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis). The same parasite was later described from Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) and salmon lice and was identified as Paranucleospora ... -
Ocean abyssal carbon experiments at 0.7 and 4 km depth
(Journal article, 2005)Observations from small-scale (20 to 90 litres) CO2 experiments conducted off the coast of California at 684 m depth and at 3942 m depth are discussed. In both experiments, when the seawater velocity was sufficiently strong, ... -
Ocean acidication in the Arabian Sea and the Red Sea - factors controlling pH
(Master thesis, 2010-06-01)The CO2 increase in the ocean due to uptake of anthropogenic CO2 and the companying lowering of ocean pH is of major concern. In this study we investigated the variability of CO2 system parameters, focusing particularly ... -
Ocean acidification in the subpolar North Atlantic: rates and mechanisms controlling pH changes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-06-23)Repeated hydrographic sections provide critically needed data on and understanding of changes in basin-wide ocean CO2 chemistry over multi-decadal timescales. Here, high-quality measurements collected at twelve cruises ... -
Ocean Biogeochemical Predictions—Initialization and Limits of Predictability
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Predictions of ocean biogeochemistry, such as primary productivity and CO2 uptake, would help to understand the changing marine environment and the global climate. There is an emerging number of studies where initialization ... -
Ocean biogeochemistry in the Norwegian Earth System Model version 2 (NorESM2)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The ocean carbon cycle is a key player in the climate system through its role in regulating the atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration and other processes that alter the Earth's radiative balance. In the second version ... -
Ocean Breath: Origin, Transport and Fate of Anthropogenic Carbon and Oxygen in the Ocean
(Doctoral thesis, 2023-08-25)Menneskeskapte klimaendringer endrer måten atmosfæren og havet utveksler energi og egenskaper på ved å redusere havventilasjonen. Endringer i ventilasjonen antas å være en viktig tilbakekoblingsmekanisme i klimasystemet ... -
The ocean carbon sink - impacts, vulnerabilities and challenges
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-06-09)Carbon dioxide (CO2) is, next to water vapour, considered to be the most important natural greenhouse gas on Earth. Rapidly rising atmospheric CO2 concentrations caused by human actions such as fossil fuel burning, land-use ...
