Ice Thickness and Bed Elevation of the Northern and Southern Patagonian Icefields
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The Northern and Southern Patagonian Icefields are the largest ice masses in the Southern Hemisphere outside Antarctica, but their ice volume and bed topography are poorly known. Here, we combine airborne gravity data ... -
Ice-algal carbon supports harp and ringed seal diets in the European Arctic: evidence from fatty acid and stable isotope markers
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Sea-ice declines in the European Arctic have led to substantial changes in marine food webs. To better understand the biological implications of these changes, we quantified the contributions of ice-associated and pelagic ... -
Ice-flow patterns and precise timing of ice sheet retreat across a dissected fjord landscape in western Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-06)We reconstruct patterns of ice flow and retreat of the southwestern Scandinavian Ice Sheet, from 2900 field observations of glacial striae and elevation measurements of 60 ice-marginal-deltas from a high-resolution LiDAR ... -
Ice-flow patterns in Boknafjorden and the deglaciations history of the Espedalen-Høgsfjorden region in Forsand, Rogaland
(Master thesis, 2019-06-26)Over 1000 glacial striation observations have been collected from various published and unpublished sources and compiled in a GIS striations database for Rogaland. An interpretation of the major flow sets represented by ... -
Ice-sheet dynamics and glacial development of the Norwegian continental margin during the last 3 million years
(Doctoral thesis, 2007-06-29)This thesis is mainly about the dynamics of the palaeo-ice sheets that covered Scandinavia, Barents Sea and Svalbard during the last glaciation. Morphological interpretation of regional and detailed bathymetric data sets ... -
Ice-stream dynamics of the SW Barents Sea revealed by high-resolution 3D seismic imaging of glacial deposits in the Hoop area
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-03-01)Recent developments in seismic acquisition systems and seismic data visualization have contributed to improve the imaging of seismic geomorphologies over a broad range of topics. This study focuses on a new high-resolution ... -
The Iceland Greenland seas project
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The Iceland Greenland Seas Project (IGP) is a coordinated atmosphere–ocean research program investigating climate processes in the source region of the densest waters of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation. ... -
The Iceland-Faroe Slope Jet: a conduit for dense water toward the Faroe Bank Channel overflow
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Dense water from the Nordic Seas passes through the Faroe Bank Channel and supplies the lower limb of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, a critical component of the climate system. Yet, the upstream pathways ... -
The Iceland–Faroe inflow of Atlantic water to the Nordic Seas
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2003-12)The flow of Atlantic water between Iceland and the Faroe Islands is one of three current branches flowing from the Atlantic Ocean into the Nordic Seas across the Greenland–Scotland Ridge. By the heat that it carries along, ... -
Ichthyobodo hippoglossin. sp. (Kinetoplastea: Prokinetoplastida: Ichthyobodonidae fam. nov.), an ectoparasitic flagellate infecting farmed Atlantic halibut Hippoglossus hippoglossus
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2007-01-18)Diseased Atlantic halibut Hippoglossus hippoglossus juveniles from a hatchery in western Norway showed gill and skin infections with an Ichthyobodo species. Genus Ichthyobodo contains a single valid species, I. necator, ... -
Ichthyobodo infections on farmed and wild fish. Methods for detection and identification of Ichthyobodo spp.
(Doctoral thesis, 2013-03-01)Ichthyobodosis is an important parasitic disease that has caused severe loss among ornamental and farmed fish world wide for more than a century. The disease is caused by heavy infections on skin and gills by parasitic ... -
Idealized Modeling of the North Icelandic Jet
(Master thesis, 2023-06-01)The North Icelandic Jet (NIJ) is a crucial component of the lower limb of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, supplying one-third to one-half of the overflow water transport through Denmark Strait, including ... -
Identification and characterisation of novel SNP markers in Atlantic cod: Evidence for directional selection
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2008-02-26)Background The Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) is a groundfish of great economic value in fisheries and an emerging species in aquaculture. Genetic markers are needed to identify wild stocks in order to ensure sustainable ... -
Identification and characterisation of the ecdysone biosynthetic genes neverland, disembodied and shade in the salmon louse Lepeophtheirus salmonis (Copepoda, Caligidae)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-02-05)The salmon louse is a marine ectoparasitic copepod on salmonid fishes. Its lifecycle consists of eight developmental stages, each separated by a molt. In crustaceans and insects, molting and reproduction is controlled by ... -
Identification and characterization of a hyperthermophilic GH9 cellulase from the Arctic Mid-Ocean Ridge vent field
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-09-06)A novel GH9 cellulase (AMOR_GH9A) was discovered by sequence-based mining of a unique metagenomic dataset collected at the Jan Mayen hydrothermal vent field. AMOR_GH9A comprises a signal peptide, a catalytic domain and a ... -
Identification and characterization of retinoblastoma gene mutations disturbing apoptosis in human breast cancers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2010-07-01)Background The tumor suppressor pRb plays a key role regulating cell cycle arrest, and disturbances in the RB1 gene have been reported in different cancer forms. However, the literature reports contradictory findings with ... -
Identification and characterization of the Atlantic salmon peptide transporter 1a
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Peptide transporter 1 (PepT1) mediates the uptake of dietary di-/tripeptides in vertebrates. However, in teleost fish gut, more than one PepT1-type transporter might operate, because of teleost-specific whole gen(om)e ... -
