Et longitudinelt studium av utvalgte gjellepatogener assosiert med gjellesykdom hos oppdrettslaks i Vest-Norge.
(Master thesis, 2015-01-08)Studien var en longitudinel undersøkelse av forekomst av gjellepatogener. En populasjon av høstutsatt Atlantisk laks på Vestlandet ble fulgt gjennom ett år i sjø (oktober 2013 - september 2014). Det ble utført månedlige ... -
The European Forest Plant Species List (EuForPlant): Concept and applications
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Question When evaluating forests in terms of their biodiversity, distinctiveness and naturalness, the affinity of the constituent species to forests is a crucial parameter. Here we ask to what extent are vascular plant ... -
Evaluating effort regulation in mixed fisheries: a Monte Carlo approach
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)This paper evaluates whether effort regulation could achieve the goal of protecting low-abundance species in mixed fisheries. We construct a two-species bio-economic model and compare the stock abundance ratio in the end ... -
Evaluating primary (cry1Ab) and secondary effects (deoxynivalenol) of GM maize when fed to zebrafish (Danio rerio). Investigating growth, intestinal mRNA and white blood cell differentiation
(Master thesis, 2012-06-01)Several of the plants which are currently being used in fish feed in Norway today, are being genetically modified (GM) around the world. The use of GM plants is increasing worldwide, and whether these are safe to use in ... -
Evaluating the Representation of Community Colleges in Biology Education Research Publications following a Call to Action
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Interest in biology education research (BER) has been growing over the last two decades, yet few BER publications focus on community colleges, which serve a large percentage of the undergraduate student population and a ... -
Evaluating the suitability of RAS culture environment for rainbow trout and Atlantic salmon: A ten-year progression of applied research and technological advancements to optimize water quality and fish performance
(Doctoral thesis, 2020)Over the last several decades, recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) have become a viable technology for the production of high-value food-fish. In Norway, for example, many Atlantic salmon smolt farms are now using RAS, ... -
Evaluating the utility of a Novel Harvest Control Rule in the management of long-lived sporadically recruiting species through Management Strategy Evaluation
(Master thesis, 2019-08-16)Fish species that exhibit sporadic recruitment, late maturity and that are long-lived, can be difficult to manage. The issue arises from the high variability in stock dynamics. Where there are significant interannual ... -
An evaluation of 0-group abundance indices of Barents Sea fish stocks
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2009-01-23)The International 0-group fish survey in the Barents Sea (1965-2002) aimed to give initial indication of the recruiting year class strengths. Since 2003 the 0-group survey has been a part of a Joint Norwegian-Russian ... -
Evaluation of a eukaryote phylogenetic microarray for environmental monitoring of marine sediments
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Increased exploitation of resources in sensitive marine ecosystems emphasizes the importance of knowledge regarding ecological impacts. However, current bio-monitoring practices are limited in terms of target-organisms and ... -
Evaluation of black soldier fly larvae meal as a functional feed ingredient in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) under farm-like conditions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) were fed diets containing black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) meal at two inclusion levels for 13 months in open sea-cages. BSFL meal replaced plant-based ingredients and dietary insect meal ... -
Evaluation of harvest control rules: simple one-parameter versus complex multi-parameter strategies
(Master thesis, 2004)Harvest control rules (HCR) are sets of well-defined rules that can be used for determining annual fish catch quotas or effort. If a management policy can be expressed as a HCR, then the HCR provides means to determine the ... -
Evaluation of photodegradable chitin synthetase inhibitors for the treatment of salmon lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Some photolabile ethanolamine analogues of the chitin synthetase inhibitors diflubenzuron, teflubenzuron, and lufenuron were tested for activity as anti-lice compounds towards salmon lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis). Two ... -
Evaluation of potential reference genes in real-time RT-PCR studies of Atlantic salmon
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2005)Background: Salmonid fishes are among the most widely studied model fish species but reports on systematic evaluation of reference genes in qRT-PCR studies is lacking. Results: The stability of six potential reference genes ... -
Evaluation of the efficacy of two Tenacibaculum vaccine prototypes in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) against T. maritimum challenge
(Master thesis, 2024-03-25)Mouthrot is a serious disease affecting recently sea launched Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) smolt in British Columbia (Canada) and has been a well-known concern for decades. Still, it was just recently that Tenacibaculum ... -
Evidence for light-controlled migration amplitude of a sound scattering layer in the Norwegian Sea
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)The oceanic sound scattering layer (SL) is an ubiquitous acoustic signature of mesopelagic fishes and invertebrates that are important food sources for the oceanic macrofauna and players in the biological carbon pump. We ... -
Evidence of diel vertical migration in Mnemiopsis leidyi
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-01-22)The vertical distribution and migration of plankton organisms may have a large impact on their horizontal dispersal and distribution, and consequently on trophic interactions. In this study we used video-net profiling to ... -
Evidence that Listeria innocua modulates its membrane’s stored curvature elastic stress, but not fluidity, through the cell cycle
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-08-14)This paper reports that the abundances of endogenous cardiolipin and phosphatidylethanolamine halve during elongation of the Gram-positive bacterium Listeria innocua. The lyotropic phase behaviour of model lipid systems ... -
