Sedimentology and reservoir properties of tabular and erosive offshore transition deposits in wave-dominated, shallow-marine strata: Book cliffs, USA
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Facies models for wave-dominated shorelines include an ‘offshore transition zone’ between shelfal mudstones and nearshore shoreface sandstones. Offshore transition-zone deposits are commonly tabular sandstone beds interbedded ... -
SeeCiTe: a method to assess CNV calls from SNP arrays using trio data
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Motivation Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping arrays remain an attractive platform for assaying copy number variants (CNVs) in large population-wide cohorts. However, current tools for calling CNVs are still ... -
Seed Amplification Assay as a Diagnostic Tool in Newly-Diagnosed Parkinson's Disease
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Seed amplification assays (SAA) are the first credible molecular assay for Parkinson’s disease (PD). However, the value of SAA to support the clinicians’ initial diagnosis of PD is not clear. In our study, we analyzed ... -
Seeds for New Beginnings? Ecological Uncertainty, Blurry Ideology, and Speculative Design at the Universitas symposium, 1972
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)In 1972, designer Emilio Ambasz (b. 1943) organized the symposium “The Universitas Project” at MoMA in New York City. The issue at stake was how the field of design should tackle the possibly irresolvable societal, political, ... -
Seeing the wood for the trees: Carbon storage and conservation in temperate forests of the Himalayas
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Forests have a prominent role to play in the success of the UN’s Agenda 2030, thus actions to halt deforestation are high on the international sustainability agenda. As humans are altering the composition and extent of ... -
Seeking Consensus on Confusing and Contentious Issues: Young Norwegians’ Experiences of Environmental Debates
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)In this paper, I examine how young people in Norway, an affluent nation in the global north with long traditions of acknowledging the young as citizens, articulate and negotiate agency and norms for practicing environmental ... -
Segmentation of the Caledonian orogenic infrastructure and exhumation of the Western Gneiss Region during transtensional collapse
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)The (ultra)high-pressure Western Gneiss Region of the Norwegian Caledonides represents an archetypical orogenic infrastructure of a continent–continent collision zone. To test established exhumation models, we synthesize ... -
Seismic expression of shear zones: Insights from 2-D point-spread-function based convolution modelling
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Shear zones are common strain localization structures in the middle and lower crust and play a major role during orogeny, transcurrent movements and rifting alike. Our understanding of crustal deformation depends on our ... -
Seismic interpretation of sill complexes in sedimentary basins: Implications for the sub-sill imaging problem
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Application of 3D-seismic reflection-data to igneous systems in sedimentary basins has led to a revolution in the understanding of mafic sill-complexes. However, there is considerable uncertainty on how geometries and ... -
Seismic on floating ice: data acquisition versus flexural wave noise
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Geophysical surveying of the Arctic will become increasingly important in future prospecting and monitoring of the terrestrial and adjacent areas in this hemisphere. Seismic data acquired on floating ice are hampered with ... -
Seismicity modulation due to hydrological loading in a stable continental region: A case study from the Jektvik swarm sequence in Northern Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Seismic swarms have been observed for more than 40 yr along the coast of Nordland, Northern Norway. However, the detailed spatio-temporal evolution and mechanisms of these swarms have not yet been resolved due to the ... -
Selection for biparental inheritance of mitochondria under hybridization and mitonuclear fitness interactions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Uniparental inheritance (UPI) of mitochondria predominates over biparental inheritance (BPI) in most eukaryotes. However, examples of BPI of mitochondria, or paternal leakage, are becoming increasingly prevalent. Most ... -
Selection of Norwegian police drone operators: an evaluation of selected cognitive tests from “The Vienna Test System"
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)A nationwide sample of 129 police officers participated in a study aimed at validating and presenting practical implications of a selection procedure for applicants to an educational program for Norwegian police drone ... -
Selective Hydrodeoxygenation of Lignin-Derived Phenols to Aromatics Catalyzed by Nb2O5-Supported Iridium
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The dominating catalytic approach to aromatic hydrocarbons from renewables, deoxygenation of phenol-rich depolymerized lignin bio-oils, is hard to achieve: Hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of phenols typically leads to loss of ... -
Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors during pregnancy and risk of persistent pulmonary hypertension in the newborn: population based cohort study from the five Nordic countries
(Journal article, 2012-01-12)Objective: To assess whether maternal use of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) increases the risk of persistent pulmonary hypertension in the newborn, and whether such an effect might differ between specific ... -
Selectivity of the collagen-binding integrin inhibitors, TC-I-15 and obtustatin
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Integrins are a family of 24 adhesion receptors which are both widely-expressed and important in many pathophysiological cellular processes, from embryonic development to cancer metastasis. Hence, integrin inhibitors are ... -
Self-assessment of range of motion in patients undergoing surgery for a unilateral shoulder condition
