Towards a More Robust Salmon: Using CRISPR/Cas9 editing to increase protein levels in Zebrafish and Atlantic salmon
(Master thesis, 2024-08-15)With an increasing world population, the demand for high quality food grows every year. The aquaculture industry shows promising potential as it provides nutritionally rich, affordable provisions, but is still facing ... -
The Troll Observing Network (TONe): plugging observation holes in Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Understanding how Antarctica is changing and how these changes influence the rest of the Earth is fundamental to the future robustness of human society. Strengthening our understanding of these changes and their implications ... -
An 18S V4 rDNA metabarcoding dataset of protist diversity in the Atlantic inflow to the Arctic Ocean, through the year and down to 1000 m depth
(Journal article, 2021)Arctic marine protist communities have been understudied due to challenging sampling conditions, in particular during winter and in deep waters. The aim of this study was to improve our knowledge on Arctic protist diversity ... -
Observed Seasonal Evolution of the Antarctic Slope Current System off the Coast of Dronning Maud Land, East Antarctica
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)The access of heat to the Antarctic ice shelf cavities is regulated by the Antarctic Slope Front, separating relatively warm offshore water masses from cold water masses on the continental slope and inside the cavity. ... -
Locally Abstract, Globally Concrete Semantics of Concurrent Programming Languages
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Formal, mathematically rigorous programming language semantics are the essential prerequisite for the design of logics and calculi that permit automated reasoning about concurrent programs. We propose a novel modular ... -
Increasing fault slip rates within the Corinth Rift, Greece: A rapidly localising active rift fault network
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)As a young (<5 Myr old) active rift with high resolution spatial and temporal constraints, the Corinth Rift is a natural laboratory for testing models of rift and fault network development in the early stages of continental ... -
Physical Variability in Meter-Scale Laboratory CO2 Injections in Faulted Geometries
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Carbon, capture, and storage (CCS) is an important bridging technology to combat climate change in the transition toward net-zero. The FluidFlower concept has been developed to visualize and study CO2 flow and storage ... -
Implementation of a Simple Actuator Disk for Large-Eddy Simulation in the Weather Research and Forecasting Model (WRF-SADLES v1.2) for wind turbine wake simulation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)In this study, we present the development of a Simple Actuator Disk model for Large-Eddy Simulation (SADLES), implemented within the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model, which is widely used in atmospheric research. ... -
Transition from Late-Miocene syn-orogenic extension to Plio-Pleistocene Corinth Rifting in the Southern Hellenides, Northern Peloponnese, Greece
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)This study investigates the Late Miocene to Pliocene transition from contractional to extensional tectonics in the upper plate of the Western Aegean retreating subduction system focusing on the Northern Peloponnese area, ... -
Pixelwise immersion factor calibration for underwater hyperspectral imaging instruments
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)In situ spectral reflectance initially captured at high spatial resolution with underwater hyperspectral imaging (UHI) is effective for classification and quantification in oceanic biogeochemical studies; however, the ... -
Extracellular vesicles for breast cancer diagnosis and therapy
(Journal article, 2024)Breast cancer is still suffering from its poor diagnosis and the lack of effective treatment. Despite of recent development of some novel chemicals, which are found to have inspiring therapeutic effects in vitro, their ... -
An Inductive Bias for Emergent Communication in a Continuous Setting
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)We study emergent communication in a multi-agent reinforcement learning setting, where the agents solve cooperative tasks and have access to a communication channel. The communication channel may consist of either discrete ... -
An experimental study of foams stabilized by anionic and non-ionic surfactants for geological carbon storage in saline aquifers.
(Master thesis, 2024-06-17)CCS (Carbon Capture and Storage) is regarded as an important contributor in mitigating CO2 emissions and combating climate change. With increased focus on CCS as an option to reduce CO2 emissions, new CCS projects include ... -
Investigating voltage ripple effects in PEM electrolysis: test protocol development and experimental characterisation
(Master thesis, 2024-08-01)PEM water electrolysis is a key technology for producing high-purity hydrogen with a compact design. However, the widespread adoption of PEM electrolysers faces challenges such as the high cost associated with the power ... -
Diversity, habitat endemicity and trophic ecology of the fauna of Loki’s Castle vent field on the Arctic Mid-Ocean Ridge
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Loki’s Castle Vent Field (LCVF, 2300 m) was discovered in 2008 and represents the first black-smoker vent field discovered on the Arctic Mid-Ocean Ridge (AMOR). However, a comprehensive faunal inventory of the LCVF has not ... -
More Frequent Abrupt Marine Environmental Changes Expected
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)We quantify an elevated occurrence of abrupt changes in ocean environmental conditions under human-induced climate forcing using Earth system model output through a novel analysis method that compares the temporal evolution ... -
A Pore-Level Study of Dense-Phase CO2 Foam Stability in the Presence of Oil
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)The ability of foam to reduce CO2 mobility in CO2 sequestration and CO2 enhanced oil recovery processes relies on maintaining foam stability in the reservoir. Foams can destabilize in the presence of oil due to mechanisms ... -
Trace Element and Sulfur Isotope Signatures of Volcanogenic Massive Sulfide (VMS) Mineralization: A Case Study from the Sunnhordland Area in SW Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024-04-07)The Sunnhordland area in SW Norway hosts more than 100 known mineral occurrences, mostly of volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS) and orogeny Au types. The VMS mineralization is hosted by plutonic, volcanic and sedimentary ... -
Interannual differences in sea ice regime in the north-western Barents Sea cause major changes in summer pelagic production and export mechanisms
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)The Barents Sea is a highly dynamic and productive marine ecosystem and a hotspot of global warming. Variability in sea ice extent is a common feature in the Barents Sea with substantial movements of the sea ice edge on ... -
