The Shallow-water Macro Echinoderm Fauna of Nha Trang Bay (Vietnam): Status at the Onset of Protection of Habitats
(Master thesis, 2006-05)Hon Mun Marine Protected Area, in Nha Trang Bay (South Central Vietnam) was established in 2002. In the first period after protection had been initiated, a baseline survey on the shallow-water macro echinoderm fauna was ... -
The "shallow-waterness" of the wave climate in European coastal regions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-07-20)In contrast to deep water waves, shallow water waves are influenced by bottom topography, which has consequences for the propagation of wave energy as well as for the energy and momentum exchange between the waves and the ... -
Shear zone evolution during core complex exhumation – Implications for continental detachments
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The formation of low-angle detachments involves exhumation of previously ductile material and fault zone weakening. To better understand this relationship, we studied a deeply eroded metamorphic core complex, which formed ... -
Shedding Light on Fish Otolith Biomineralization Using a Bioenergetic Approach
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-11-14)Otoliths are biocalcified bodies connected to the sensory system in the inner ears of fish. Their layered, biorhythm-following formation provides individual records of the age, the individual history and the natural ... -
Shelf/fjord exchange driven by coastal-trapped waves in the Arctic

Shelter seeking and competitive behavior in hatchery reared juvenile European lobster (Homarus gammarus) exposed to predator odors
(Master thesis, 2012-07-01)Releases of hatchery reared juvenile European lobster have been performed throughout Europe since the 19th century. However, poor survival in the wild reduces the success of both stock enhancement programs and large-scale ... -
Shifts in soil prokaryotic communities of boreal and alpine semi-natural grasslands along temperature and precipitation gradients: An investigation into the effects of graminoid removal
(Master thesis, 2018-06-27)Biotic interactions are important drivers of ecological responses to climate change. By studying the effects of graminoid removal on forb populations along temperature and precipitation gradients, Olsen et al. (2016) found ... -
The SHIP Validator: An Annotation-based Content-Validation Framework for Java Applications
(Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2010)In this paper, we investigate the use of Java annotations for software security purposes. In particular, we implement a framework for content validation where the validation tests are specified by annotations. This approach ... -
Ship wave patterns on floating ice sheets
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)This paper aims to explore the response of a floating icesheet to a load moving in a curved path. We investigate the effect of turning on the wave patterns and strain distribution, and explore scenarios where turning ... -
A Ship-Based Characterization of Coherent Boundary-Layer Structures Over the Lifecycle of a Marine Cold-Air Outbreak
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Convective coherent structures shape the atmospheric boundary layer over the lifecycle of marine cold-air outbreaks (CAOs). Aircraft measurements have been used to characterize such structures in past CAOs. Yet, aircraft ... -
SHMIP The subglacial hydrology model intercomparison Project
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-10-24)Subglacial hydrology plays a key role in many glaciological processes, including ice dynamics via the modulation of basal sliding. Owing to the lack of an overarching theory, however, a variety of model approximations exist ... -
Shoelaces: An interactive tool for ribosome profiling processing and visualization
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-07-18)Background: The emergence of ribosome profiling to map actively translating ribosomes has laid the foundation for a diverse range of studies on translational regulation. The data obtained with different variations of this ... -
Short and Modular Synthesis of Substituted 2‑Aminopyrroles
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)We herein describe a simple and metal-free domino methodology to synthesize 2-aminopyrroles from alkynyl vinyl hydrazides. The domino reaction involves a novel propargylic 3,4-diaza-Cope rearrangement and a tandem ... -
Short-term hydropower scheduling at watercourses with flooding risks

Short-term solar and wind variability in long-term energy system models - A European case study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Integration of variable renewables such as solar and wind has grown at an unprecedented pace in Europe over the past two decades. As the share of solar and wind rises, it becomes increasingly important for long-term energy ... -
Short-term Spatiotemporal Load Forecasting for Norwegian Bidding Zones
(Master thesis, 2021-06-01)Short-term load forecasting is vital for electric utility companies. The objective of this thesis is the short-term load forecasting of the five bidding zones in the Norwegian electrical grid. This master thesis proposes ... -
Shortwave absorptance in a tropical cloudy atmosphere: Reconciling calculations and observations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-10-04)[1] The absorption of shortwave (SW) radiation by clouds is a topic surrounded by contradictory reports and controversy. Some studies have shown large discrepancies between observed SW absorption and absorption predicted ... -
“Show me how to use a microscope” – The development and evaluation of certification as direct assessment of practical lab skills
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Practical lab skills are rarely directly assessed. To improve constructive alignment between the described learning outcomes of practical skills and assessment, we developed and tested a certification procedure for microscopy ... -
The Sibling Distribution for Multivariate Life Time Data
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)A flexible class of multivariate distributions for continuous lifetimes is proposed. The distribution is defined in terms of the age-at-death of m siblings. The expression for the joint density is derived using classical ...
