Basement structure and its influence on the structural configuration of the northern North Sea rift
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-06)The northern North Sea rift basin developed on a heterogeneous crust comprising structures inherited from the Caledonian orogeny and Devonian postorogenic extension. Integrating two‐dimensional regional seismic reflection ... -
Basic mechanisms for control of appetite and feed intake in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)
(Doctoral thesis, 2022-11-10)Atlantisk laks (Salmo salar L.) er en nøkkelart i norsk sjømateksport, og representerer 70 – 80 Mrd NOK i verdi. Den store økningen i produksjon kombinert med overfôring har bidratt til negative effekter på det marine ... -
Basin Interactions and predictability

Basin-scale architecture of deeply emplaced sill complexes: Jameson Land, East Greenland
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)Igneous sills are common components in rifted sedimentary basins globally. Much work has focused on intrusions emplaced at relatively shallow palaeodepths (0 – 1.5 km). However, owing to constraints of seismic reflection ... -
Bat (Chiroptera) activity and community composition in contrasting agricultural landscapes and the adjacent Budongo forest reserve, Uganda
(Master thesis, 2010-06-01)Abstract. Human activities are causing a biodiversity crisis in all biomes of the Earth. As the world's population continues to grow, more land will be converted to agricultural land to meet the growing food demands, ... -
Batch Queue Interface for the JAliEn Grid Middleware

Batterilading i hybride fremdriftssystemer ved hjelp av tapsenergi fra forbrenningsmotoren
(Master thesis, 2017-06-23)In a time when emission standards are getting stricter, the search for more environmentally friendly propulsion is more relevant than ever. Hybridization and electric propulsion has, thus, become more common in some sectors, ... -
A Battle Lost? Report on Two Centuries of Invasion and Management of Lantana camara L. in Australia, India and South Africa
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-03-05)Recent discussion on invasive species has invigorated the debate on strategies to manage these species. Lantana camara L., a shrub native to the American tropics, has become one of the worst weeds in recorded history. In ... -
Bayesian and frequentist computation with application to data from the Medical Birth Registry of Norway
(Doctoral thesis, 2019-04-25)In chapter 1, the field of statistics is discussed in general terms. Then, Bayes’ theorem is presented together with the posterior distribution. Finally, we consider maximum likelihood estimation and its relation to ... -
Bayesian modelling of organ deformations in radiotherapy
(Doctoral thesis, 2023-06-13)Moderne strålebehandling mot kreft er skreddarsydd for å gje ein høg stråledose tilpassa svulsten (målvolumet), mens så lite dose som mogleg vert gitt til det friske vevet omkring. Den totale dosen vert levert over nokre ... -
Bayesian Parameter Estimation of the Energy-loss Distribution of QCD Jets in a Quark-Gluon Plasma
(Master thesis, 2022-06-01) -
Bayesian Variational Methods in Carbon Storage Monitoring
(Doctoral thesis, 2021-01-19)This thesis explores the use of deep learning and variational inference in Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) monitoring. It consists of an introductory part and three scientific papers. The first chapter introduces CCS and ... -
Be-10 Dating of Ice-Marginal Moraines in the Khumbu Valley, Nepal, Central Himalaya, Reveals the Response of Monsoon-Influenced Glaciers to Holocene Climate Change
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The dynamic response of large mountain glaciers to climatic forcing operates over timescales of several centuries and therefore understanding how these glaciers change requires observations of their behavior through the ... -
Beam diffraction effects in guided-wave transmission of fluid embedded elastic plate. Influence of receiver distance and finite aperture.
(Master thesis, 2018-06-23)For the past decades, plate transmission effects have been extensively studied with the incentive of applying the knowledge in GUW methods in the industry. With these studies, multiple anomalous effects have been identified, ... -
Beauty production in pp collisions at √s=2.76 TeV measured via semi-electronic decays
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-11)The ALICE Collaboration at the LHC reports measurement of the inclusive production cross section of electrons from semi-leptonic decays of beauty hadrons with rapidity |y|<0.8 and transverse momentum 1<pT<10 GeV/c, in pp ... -
Bedymo: A combined quasi-geostrophic and primitive equation model in σ coordinates
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)This paper introduces the Bergen Dynamical Model (Bedymo), an idealized atmospheric circulation model, which combines the quasi-geostrophic approximation and the hydrostatic primitive equations into one modelling framework. ... -
Begrepsforståelse i matematikkfaget

Behavior-dependent selectivity of yellowtail flounder (Limanda ferruginea) in the mouth of a commercial bottom trawl
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-09-02)To improve the efficiency of a commercial bottom trawl for catching yellowtail flounder (Limanda ferruginea), we studied the behavior of individuals in the middle of the trawl mouth. Observations were conducted with a ... -
Behavioral and depth preference for wrasse (Labridae) used as cleaner fish in salmon aquaculture
(Master thesis, 2023-06-02)Wild and farmed wrasse are used as cleaner fish in Norwegian salmon aquaculture as a biological remedy against the ectoparasite salmon lice. For wrasse to be a well-functioning cleaner fish, it is essential that the species ... -
