r3Cseq: an R/Bioconductor package for the discovery of long-range genomic interactions from chromosome conformation capture and next-generation sequencing data
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013)The coupling of chromosome conformation capture (3C) with next-generation sequencing technologies enables the high-throughput detection of longrange genomic interactions, via the generation of ligation products between DNA ... -
Radiometrically determined dates and sedimentation rates for recent sediments in nine North African wetland lakes (the CASSARINA Project)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2001)Sediment cores were collected from nine wetland lakes in Morocco, Tunisia and Egypt for the CASSARINA project investigating environmental change in Northern African wetlands. The cores were dated radiometrically by using ... -
Rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss skin responses to salmon louse Lepeophtheirus salmonis: From copepodid to adult stage
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The marine crustacean Lepeophtheirus salmonis (salmon louse) is a common ectoparasite of wild and farmed salmonids. The parasite has a complex ontogeny comprising eight instars. The planktonic copepodid stage settles on ... -
Rainforest and cloud forest Scolytodes (Curculionidae, Scolytinae, Hexacolini) from the ALAS inventory in Costa Rica: new species, new synonymy, new records
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-07-11)Quantitative collecting efforts over the last several decades in Costa Rica have resulted in many new species of insects. The Arthropods of La Selva projects included collecting from a typical lowland Neotropical forest ... -
Rainwater harvesting cisterns and local water management; A qualitative geographical / socio-anthropological case study and ethnographic description from the districts of Hajja, Mabyan and Shiris, Governorate of Hajja, Yemen
(Master thesis, 2006)The thesis provides a qualitative geographical/socio-anthropological case study and ethnographic description of rainwater harvesting cisterns and their role in local water management. The analysed data is presented in a ... -
Rapid and reliable cloning of PCR products

Rapid climate changes during the Lateglacial and the early Holocene as seen from plant community dynamics in the Polar Urals, Russia
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)A detailed, well-dated record of pollen and sedimentary ancient DNA (sedaDNA) for the period 15 000–9500 cal a bp describes changes at Lake Bolshoye Shchuchye in the Polar Ural Mountains, located far east of the classical ... -
Rapid high-resolution detection of colistin resistance in Gram-negative bacteria using flow cytometry: a comparison with broth microdilution, a commercial screening test and WGS
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background Even though both EUCAST and CLSI consider broth microdilution (BMD) as the reference method for antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) of colistin, the method exhibits potential flaws related to properties ... -
Rapid life‑history evolution in a wild Daphnia pulex population in response to novel size‑dependent predation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The effect of size-selective predation on prey communities and their traits is well documented, but the relative roles of genetic adaptation and phenotypic plasticity continue to be debated. We looked for evidence of genetic ... -
Rate-of-change analysis in palaeoecology revisited: a new approach
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Dynamics in the rate of compositional change (rate-of-change; RoC), preserved in paleoecological sequences, are thought to reflect changes due to exogenous (climate and human forcing) or endogenous (local dynamics and ... -
Re-sampling in beach- and sand dune communities at South West Karmøy - 2008. Some comparisons and interpretations.
(Master thesis, 2009-06-02)Sandy beaches with accompanying immature dunes as well as mature sand dunes are regarded a rare biotope in Norway. The localities of this survey are situated at the south west coast of Karmøy. As a former resident of the ... -
Reaction norm analysis reveals rapid shifts toward delayed maturation in harvested Lake Erie yellow perch (Perca flavescens)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-01-06)Harvested marine fish stocks often show a rapid and substantial decline in the age and size at maturation. Such changes can arise from multiple processes including fisheries‐induced evolution, phenotypic plasticity, and ... -
“Real-time” genetic monitoring of a commercial fishery on the doorstep of an MPA reveals unique insights into the interaction between coastal and migratory forms of the Atlantic cod
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-05)With the decline of many of the world’s fisheries, increased regulation, including marine protected areas (MPA), forms an increasingly important role in promoting sustainable resource use. Here, we present a novel “real-time” ... -
Recent ecosystem dynamics in nine North African lakes in the CASSARINA Project
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2001)An integrated multi-disciplinary study of nine North African lakes (CASSARINA) aims to establish ecological baselines and to explore responses to 20th century human impacts on their ecosystems. Water chemistry measurements ... -
Recent environmental change and atmospheric contamination on Svalbard as recorded in lake sediments – an introduction
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2004)This paper outlines an interdisciplinary project on recent environmental change and atmospheric contamination on the high Arctic archipelago of Svalbard (76º30'N – 80º30'N). It describes the rationale and aims of the project ... -
