Growth performance and welfare of post-smolt (Salmo salar L.) reared in semi closed containment systems (S-CCS) – a comparative study
(Master thesis, 2020-06-23)The salmon industry faces challenges related to sea lice infestations, escapees, diseases and environmental impact. Semi closed containment systems (S-CCS) have been proposed to abate these challenges. In the S-CCS, cultured ... -
Reproductive allocation and floral traits of insect-pollinated forbs along climatic gradients in semi-natural grasslands
(Master thesis, 2020-06-24)Anthropogenic climate change is increasing both temperatures and precipitation in Western Norway, and these trends will be magnified in the future. This is expected to alter ecosystems, and to affect plants at different ... -
Skin development in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) post-smolts reared in freshwater or low strength seawater and effect on susceptibility to Tenacibaculum finnmarkense
(Master thesis, 2020-06-24)Ulcer development caused by bacterial infections in the sea is a large problem in the Norwegian salmon farming industry, leading to increased mortalities, reduced fish welfare, down-classification at harvest, and increased ... -
Trichlorfon, a salmon lice pesticide, and the effect on metabolism and inflammation in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar, L.)
(Master thesis, 2020-06-26)Since the beginning of the salmon farming industry in Norway, the substantial fish health and welfare and economic costs caused by the parasitic salmon lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) has increased in tandem with the expanding ... -
The effects of climate on resource allocation and traits of alpine and boreal herbaceous plants
(Master thesis, 2020-06-26)Climate is rapidly changing, and species are expected to change their ranges to where conditions are now more suitable. Which lowland species that range shift into alpine environments could have potentially different effects ... -
Integrated taxonomic revision of Afrotropical Xyleborinus reveals an extraordinary recent radiation on Madagascar
(Master thesis, 2020-06-26)Collection efforts on Madagascar have previously revealed a high species diversity in the Scolytinae genus Xyleborinus Reitter, 1913 compared with the African mainland. This study has produced a well supported phylogeny ... -
