Climate History of the Arctic: temperature reconstruction of an arctic lake on Spitsbergen based on chironomid
(Master thesis, 2010-06-01)ABSTRACT. The increase in global climatic changes seen in recent years is debated to be a result from expanding anthropogenic activity. The aim for the study is to contribute to the climatic history at western Spitsbergen ... -
Climate warming causes life-history evolution in a model for Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014)Climate change influences the marine environment, with ocean warming being the foremost driving factor governing changes in the physiology and ecology of fish. At the individual level, increasing temperature influences ... -
Climate-driven differences in growth performance of cohabitant fir and birch in a subalpine forest in Dhorpatan Nepal
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Himalayan Silver Fir (Abies spectabilis) and Himalayan Birch (Betula utilis) are tree species often found coexisting in sub-alpine forests of the Nepal Himalayas. To assess species-specific growth performances of these ... -
Climate-Driven Plant Response and Resilience on the Tibetan Plateau in Space and Time: A Review
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Climate change variation on a small scale may alter the underlying processes determining a pattern operating at large scale and vice versa. Plant response to climate change on individual plant levels on a fine scale tends ... -
Climate-Induced Evolution of the Behaviour and Life-History Strategies of Atlantic Cod (Gadus morhua). A Modelling Approach
(Doctoral thesis, 2015-08-21)Climate change influences the marine environment, with ocean warming being the foremost driving factor governing changes in the physiology and ecology of fish. At the individual level temperature can directly influence ... -
Climate–ecosystem modelling made easy: The Land Sites Platform
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Dynamic Global Vegetation Models (DGVMs) provide a state-of-the-art process-based approach to study the complex interplay between vegetation and its physical environment. For example, they help to predict how terrestrial ... -
Climatic and biogeographical drivers of functional diversity in the flora of the Canary Islands
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Aim Functional traits can help us to elucidate biogeographical and ecological processes driving assemblage structure. We analysed the functional diversity of plant species of different evolutionary origins across an island ... -
Climatic and environmental factors influencing occurrence and distribution of macroalgae – a fjord gradient revisited
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)During the last decades, trends of increasing sea water temperatures and precipitation have been observed in the North Atlantic. Increasing sea water temperatures are expected to have strong effects on coastal benthic ... -
Cloned and outbred Atlantic salmon display equal parasite dispersion when infected with the salmon louse
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-11)The salmon louse is an ectoparasitic copepod that infects salmonids in the marine environment. This parasite causes a major economic and biological challenge to the Atlantic salmon farming industry, and efforts to increase ... -
Cloning, expression and purification of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar, L.) neuroglobin
(Journal article, 2012)Neuroglobin (Ngb) exists only in small amounts in salmon brain. In order to study the protein in more detail salmon neuroglobin (sNgb) was cloned, hetereologously expressed in E.coli and purified. The protein had red color ... -
Cloning, tissue and ontogenetic expression of the taurine transporter in the flatfish Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-04)Flatfish species seem to require dietary taurine for normal growth and development. Although dietary taurine supplementation has been recommended for flatfish, little is known about the mechanisms of taurine absorption in ... -
Close to open—Factors that hinder and promote open science in ecology research and education
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022-12-21)The Open Science (OS) movement is rapidly gaining traction among policy-makers, research funders, scientific journals and individual scientists. Despite these tendencies, the pace of implementing OS throughout the scientific ... -
A closer look into the microbiome of microalgal cultures
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Although bacteria are commonly co-occurring in microalgal cultivation and production systems, little is known about their community structure and how it might be affected by specific microalgal groups or growth conditions. ... -
Clostridium thailandense sp. nov., a novel CO2-reducing acetogenic bacterium isolated from peatland soil
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Some species of the genus Clostridium are efficient acetate producers and have been deemed useful for upgrading industrial biogas. An acetogenic, strictly anaerobic, Gram-stain-positive, subterminal endospore-forming ... -
Co-infection with Norwegian Salmonid Alphavirus (NSAV) and Infectious Pancreatic Necrosis Virus (IPNV) in Chinook Salmon Embryo Cells (CHSE-214).
(Master thesis, 2009-06-02)Infectious pancreatic disease (IPN) and pancreas disease (PD) of salmon are viral diseases caused by Infectious Pancreatic Necrosis Virus (IPNV) (Birnaviridae) and Salmonid Alphavirus (SAV) (Togaviridae). Both IPNV- and ... -
Co-localization of clinically relevant antibiotic- and heavy metal resistance genes on plasmids in Klebsiella pneumoniae from marine bivalves
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Klebsiella pneumoniae is an opportunistic pathogen frequently associated with antibiotic resistance and present in a wide range of environments, including marine habitats. However, little is known about the development, ... -
Co-operative learning in undergraduate mathematics and science education: A scoping review
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)To cope with an unpredictable future, higher education in mathematics and science (MS) needs to educate a knowledgeable and skilled workforce. Co-operative learning (CL) is a teaching method associated with increased ... -
Coastal heathland vegetation is surprisingly resistant to experimental drought across successional stages and latitude
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)In the last decade, several major dwarf-shrub dieback events have occurred in northern European coastal heathlands. These dieback events occur after extended periods with sub-zero temperatures under snow-free conditions ... -
