Wave Breaking in Undular Bores with Shear Flows
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)It is well known that weak hydraulic jumps and bores develop a growing number of surface oscillations behind the bore front. Defining the bore strength as the ratio of the head of the undular bore to the undisturbed depth, ... -
Wave loads on ocean infrastructure increase as a result of waves passing over abrupt depth transitions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Abrupt changes in water depth are known to lead to abnormal free-surface wave statistics. The present study considers whether this translates into abnormal loads on offshore infrastructure. A fully non-linear numerical ... -
Wavefield Migration Imaging of Moho Geometry and Upper Mantle Structure Beneath Southern New England
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The crust and upper mantle beneath the New England Appalachians exhibit a large offset of the Moho across the boundary between Laurentia and accreted terranes and several dipping discontinuities, which reflect Paleozoic ... -
Wavelet Screening identifies regions highly enriched for differentially methylated loci for orofacial clefts
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)DNA methylation is the most widely studied epigenetic mark in humans and plays an essential role in normal biological processes as well as in disease development. More focus has recently been placed on understanding ... -
Wavelet Screening: a novel approach to analyzing GWAS data
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background Traditional methods for single-variant genome-wide association study (GWAS) incur a substantial multiple-testing burden because of the need to test for associations with a vast number of single-nucleotide ... -
Waves generated by moving loads on ice plates: Viscoelastic approximations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The paper investigates waves generated by the moving loads on ice plates floating on an incompressible fluid. Two different viscoelastic approximations are considered for the ice cover: A model depending on the strain-relaxation ... -
Waving the map for national identity: How cartography in Norway and Sweden was used as a nation-building tool in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Cartography has for centuries been used as a political instrument to support national pride, impact and influence, whether through use of a national prime meridian or local toponyms, the emphasising of the country’s extent ... -
Ways of counting in Micronesia
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)In many languages in Micronesia, clever ways of extending their counting systems to numbers far beyond imagination were developed in precolonial times. Here, we provide an exhaustive overview of these systems, highlight ... -
Ways of knowing with data visualizations
(Chapter, 2020)Data visualizations combine numeric data with visual representation, and these modes allow them to express certain kinds of knowledge more easily than others. This chapter uses examples of historical data visualizations ... -
‘We are unlikely to return to the same world, and I do not want it to destroy my future.’ Young people's worries through the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)This study aims to explore what worries youth were having during the seventh to ninth week of the COVID-19 lockdown. Our findings build on the responses to an open-ended survey question from 1314 youths. The worries covered ... -
“We don’t throw stones, we throw flowers”: race discourse and race evasiveness in the Norwegian university classroom
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)How do university students and instructors engage in discussions about race and racism in a country where speaking about race is perceived as racist? In Norway, as in much of Europe, the concept of “race” is silenced, ... -
“We in the Mojo Community” – Exploring a Global Network of Mobile Journalists
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Mobile journalism is a fast-growing area of journalistic innovation that requires new skills and work practices. Thus, a major challenge for journalists is learning not only how to keep up with new gadgets but how to advance ... -
“We teachers really got together”. The school as an educational community during the Covid-19 pandemic
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The schools’ closure and the adoption of distance learning (DL) during the Covid-19 pandemic deeply changed Italian schools’ teaching and organizational practices. This article investigates how a micro-universe of four ... -
“We Want to Be Educated!” A Thematic Analysis of Gifted Students’ Views on Education in Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Norwegian educational policy focuses on inclusive, equivalent, and adapted education for all. We followed procedures for an inductive thematic approach to explore the educational experiences of seventeen gifted students ... -
The weak variable sharing property
(Journal article, 2023)An algebraic type of structure is shown forth which is such that if it is a characteristic matrix for a logic, then that logic satisfies Meyer's weak variable sharing property. As a corollary, it is shown that RM and all ... -
Weakening of Cold Halocline Layer Exposes Sea Ice to Oceanic Heat in the Eastern Arctic Ocean
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)A 15-yr duration record of mooring observations from the eastern (>70°E) Eurasian Basin (EB) of the Arctic Ocean is used to show and quantify the recently increased oceanic heat flux from intermediate-depth (~150–900 m) ... -
Weakening of the Atlantic Niño variability under global warming
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The Atlantic Niño is one of the most important patterns of interannual tropical climate variability, but how climate change will influence this pattern is not well known due to large climate model biases. Here we show that ... -
Wearing-off at the end of natalizumab dosing interval and risk of MS disease activity: A prospective 1-year follow-up study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Natalizumab effectively prevents disease activity in relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis by binding α4 integrin and inhibiting leukocyte migration to the central nervous system. We recently reported an association between ... -
Wearing-off at the end of natalizumab dosing intervals is associated with low receptor occupancy
