An EvoDevo Study of Salmonid Visual Opsin Dynamics and Photopigment Spectral Sensitivity
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Salmonids are ideal models as many species follow a distinct developmental program from demersal eggs and a large yolk sac to hatching at an advanced developmental stage. Further, these economically important teleosts ... -
Evolution and developmental system drift in the endoderm gene regulatory network of Caenorhabditis and other nematodes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Developmental gene regulatory networks (GRNs) underpin metazoan embryogenesis and have undergone substantial modification to generate the tremendous variety of animal forms present on Earth today. The nematode Caenorhabditis ... -
Evolution and Transformation of the North Icelandic Irminger Current Along the North Iceland Shelf
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The North Icelandic Irminger Current (NIIC) flowing northward through Denmark Strait is the main source of salt and heat to the north Iceland shelf. We quantify its along-stream evolution using the first high-resolution ... -
Evolution of a major segmented normal fault during multiphase rifting: The origin of plan-view zigzag geometry
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-05)This case study addresses fault reactivation and linkage between distinct extensional episodes with variable stretching direction. Using 2-D and 3-D seismic reflection data we demonstrate how the Vesterdjupet Fault Zone, ... -
Evolution of a narrow-band spectrum of random surface gravity waves
(Journal article, 2003-03) -
Evolution of a portfolio-based design in ecology: a three-year design cycle
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Portfolio-based designs are among the most popular student-centered approaches in higher education. While the pedagogical literature typically provides generic advice on ideal portfolio-based designs, there is little ... -
Evolution of age and length at maturation of Alaskan salmon under size-selective harvest
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-02)Spatial and temporal trends and variation in life-history traits, including age and length at maturation, can be influenced by environmental and anthropogenic processes, including size-selective exploitation. Spawning ... -
The evolution of catchment-depositional system relationships on the dip slopes of intra-rift basement highs: an example from the Frøya High, Mid-Norwegian Rifted Margin
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Basement highs form one of many potential sediment source areas during the evolution of continental rifts and rifted margins and add to the topographic complexity typical of active rifts. Footwall basement highs acting as ... -
Evolution of IMF By induced asymmetries during substorms: Superposed epoch analysis at geosynchronous orbit
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The By component of the magnetic field inside the magnetosphere is positively correlated with the By component of the Interplanetary Magnetic Field (IMF). This leads to asymmetries in aurora, plasma convection and electric ... -
Evolution of IMF By Induced Asymmetries: The Role of Tail Reconnection
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)North-south asymmetries arise in the magnetosphere-ionosphere system when a significant east-west (By) component is present in the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF). During such conditions, a By component with the same ... -
The evolution of insular woodiness
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Insular woodiness (IW)—the evolutionary transition from herbaceousness toward woodiness on islands—is one of the most iconic features of island floras. Since pioneering work by Darwin and Wallace, a number of drivers of ... -
Evolution of normal fault systems in physical analogue experiments
(Master thesis, 2019-06-26) -
Evolution of normal faults and fault-related damage: insights from physical experiments
(Master thesis, 2016-06-01)Our understanding of the growth of natural extensional faults is limited to the study of a random snapshot in time, namely that of present day, aided by various techniques to reconstruct fault growth history. Furthermore, ... -
Evolution of ore forming fluids at the St. Jonsfjorden Au-Cu prospect, Svalbard
(Master thesis, 2024-06-03)The southern part of St. Jonsfjorden hosts Au and Cu mineralization in epigenetic quartz carbonate veins that cross-cut Ordovician-Silurian sediments and are localized along an E-W orientated thrust fault. The mineralization ... -
Evolution of ore-forming fluids in a post-collisional porphyry Cu-Au system: A case study from the Bučim deposit, Republic of North Macedonia
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The Bučim porphyry Cu-Au deposit is situated in the westernmost part of the Serbo-Macedonian Massif, Republic of North Macedonia. The deposit is hosted by Precambrian gneisses with tectonically imbedded rare lenses of ... -
Evolution of reproduction periods in seasonal environments
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Many species are subject to seasonal cycles in resource availability, affecting the timing of their reproduction. Using a stage-structured consumer-resource model in which juvenile development and maturation are resource ... -
Evolution of Rift Architecture and Fault Linkage During Continental Rifting: Investigating the Effects of Tectonics and Surface Processes Using Lithosphere-Scale 3D Coupled Numerical Models
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Continental rifts grow by propagation, overlap and linkage of individual fault segments. These processes are influenced by erosion and sedimentation and generate complex three-dimensional fault-interaction patterns. We use ... -
Evolution of talc- and carbonate-bearing alterations in ultramafic rocks on Leka (central Norway)
(Master thesis, 2014-02-05)The thesis focuses on several low-angle fracture zones within the ultramafic section of the Leka Ophiolite Complex, central Norway, along which the original lithology has been completely serpentinized and carbonated. The ... -
Evolution of temperature optimum in Thermotogaceae and the prediction of trait values of uncultured organisms
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-06-03)Quantitative characterization of the mode and rate of phenotypic evolution is rarely applied to prokaryotes. Here, we present an analysis of temperature optimum (Topt) evolution in the thermophilic family Thermotogaceae, ... -
Evolution of the delta family of ionotropic glutamate receptors
(Doctoral thesis, 2024-06-14)I pattedyrhjernen er ionotrope glutamatreseptorer (iGluR) avgjørende for å formidle eksitatorisk nevrotransmisjon. Disse reseptorene deles inn i fire forskjellige familier: AMPA, KA, NMDA og delta. I motsetning til de andre ...
