Aromatic plants in nests of blue tits (Cyanistes caeruleus)
(Master thesis, 2024-11-20)Blue tits (Cyanistes caeruleus) build their nests out of moss and line them with insulating materials such as feathers, fur, and hair. In the southern areas of the species distribution range, blue tits often add aromatic ... -
Hvilke klimavariabler er viktig for variasjon i diversitet og komposisjon av floraen på fjelltopper i Nord-Norge?
(Master thesis, 2024-11-20)Denne studien undersøker hvordan diversitet og komposisjon av karplanter på fjelltopper i Nord-Norge påvirkes av dagens klimatiske situasjon. Lignende studier har blitt gjennomført tidligere, men gjerne på et mer globalt ... -
Hvilken effekt har klimaendringer hatt på økologiske samfunn i alpine områder?
(Master thesis, 2024-11-20)Hensikt: Økende global oppvarming kan skape store konsekvenser for det biologiske mangfoldet. Med økende temperaturer er det observert en økning av termofile arter, og/eller nedgang av kuldetolerante arter i alpine områder. ... -
Does pollinator-dependency in vascular plants affect the elevational range expansion of species in the northern Scandinavian mountains?
(Master thesis, 2024-11-20)Rising temperatures have led to the number of species increasing on mountain peaks across Europe. A greater increase in species richness leads to more competition for resources on the mountains which threatens local species. ... -
Effekter av klimaendringer på artskomposisjon av karplanter på fjelltopper i Nord-Norge
(Master thesis, 2024-11-20)Global oppvarming fører til omfattende endringer i strukturen og sammensetningen av plantesamfunn. Særlig utsatt er økosystemer som befinner seg på de kaldeste marginene på jorden, som fjelltopper. Planter i disse områdene ... -
In vitro responses of Northern Elephant Seals (Mirounga angustirostris) endothelial cells to contaminants under hypoxic and high pressure conditions
(Master thesis, 2024-11-27)Northern elephant seals (Mirounga angustirostris), as apex predators in their marine ecosystem, are vital for maintaining ecological balance. These seals are expert divers, frequently reaching depths below 600 meters, where ... -
Long-term changes in stratification and convection in the Nordic Seas : An observational perspective
(Doctoral thesis, 2025-01-21)I løpet av de siste tiårene har de Nordiske Hav gjennomgått en endring mot høyere temperatur og lavere tetthet. I Grønlandshavet ble den tyngste vannmassen i de Nordiske Hav dannet gjennom konveksjon som nådde helt til ... -
Does size matter? The importance of size and winter signal for the smoltification of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar, Linnaeus 1758)
(Master thesis, 2024-10-29)In Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) aquaculture, there has been a trend toward producing larger smolt in freshwater (FW) as a way to reduce production time in open net-pens at sea (SW). Earlier, the common way to induce ... -
Geofaglige vurderinger og kvantifisering av stislitasje i daler rundt Jostedalsbreen og i Jostedalsbreen nasjonalpark, Vestland fylke
(Master thesis, 2024-11-20)Det er forventet at det i fremtiden vil bli økt nedbør og høyere temperaturer, i tillegg til at flere turister vil komme til Vestlandet. En økt ferdsel vil kunne gi utfordringer knyttet til å bevare verneverdiene og ... -

Sedimentology and reservoir properties of the Jurassic Cook Formation, in the Northeastern Norwegian North Sea
(Master thesis, 2024-11-20)Porosity and permeability vary significantly within the Lower Jurassic Cook Formation which is a problem when exploring for hydrocarbons or storage of CO2. Reservoir quality varies significantly from well to well, but the ... -
The ontogeny of lymphoid organs and IgM+ B-cells in ballan wrasse (Labrus bergylta) reveals a potential site for extrarenal B-cell lymphopoiesis: The pancreas
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Vaccination of farmed fish is the most effective prophylactic measure against contagious diseases but requires specific knowledge on when the adaptive immune system is fully developed. The present work describes kidney and ... -
IEA Wind Task 49: Reference Site Conditions for Floating Wind Arrays
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)The commercial-scale deployment of floating offshore wind (FOW) projects is expected to take place in a diverse range of sites that may differ significantly from existing fixed-bottom projects. FOW farms are particularly ... -
The Thermal Evolution of Western Norway Based on Multi-Sample Models of an Elevation Transect: Implications for the Formation of High-Elevation Low-Relief Surfaces on an Elevated Rifted Continental Margin
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)The post-Caledonian thermal and geomorphological evolution of onshore Western Norway is poorly understood, including the formation and age of the high-elevation low-relief surfaces seen across the Norwegian landscape. We ... -
Liver condition of 0 and 1-group cod (Gadus morhua) in the Barents Sea
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Liver condition is hypothesized to be a better condition index for juvenile cod than other somatic condition indices, since cod store most of their excess energy in their liver. It is suggested that population changes in ... -
Testing of Chemical Vapor Deposition Lab-Grown Diamonds
(Master thesis, 2024-11-20)Over the last years, Dr. Justas Zalieckas has led research at the nanophysics group at IFT, developing novel CVD diamond growth technology for a range of applications. One of the target areas has been the production of ... -

Population structure and history of North Atlantic Blue whales (Balaenoptera musculus musculus) inferred from whole genome sequence analysis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Knowledge of genetic diversity and structure is essential for developing conservation strategies for endangered species. Blue whales were hunted to near extinction in the mid-twentieth century. Not-withstanding almost ... -
Environmentally driven changes in Atlantic salmon oxidative status interact with physiological performance
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Farmed Atlantic salmon in sea cages experience natural seasonal changes in seawater temperature and photoperiod. Atlantic salmon have more oxidized tissues in spring and early summer, and this corresponds to the period of ...
