The Climate Response to Emissions Reductions Due to COVID-19: Initial Results From CovidMIP
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Many nations responded to the corona virus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic by restricting travel and other activities during 2020, resulting in temporarily reduced emissions of CO2, other greenhouse gases and ozone and ... -
Co-occurrence of contaminants in marine fish from the North East Atlantic Ocean: Implications for human risk assessment
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Marine fish from the North East Atlantic Ocean (NEAO) are nutrient rich and considered a valuable economic resource. However, marine fish are also a major dietary source of several contaminants, including persistent organic ... -
Effects of cnidarian biofouling on salmon gill health and development of amoebic gill disease
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-07-06)This study examines the potential implications of biofouling management on the development of an infectious disease in Norwegian farmed salmon. The hydroid Ectopleura larynx frequently colonises cage nets at high densities ... -
Effects of geography and species variation on selenium and mercury molar ratios in Northeast Atlantic marine fish communities
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-11-01)Methylmercury (MeHg) is a potent neurotoxin that bioaccumulates in seafood. Co-occurrence of selenium (Se) may affect the bioavailability and toxicity of MeHg in organisms. Here we report the concentrations of total mercury ... -
European warm-season temperature and hydroclimate since 850 CE
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The long-term relationship between temperature and hydroclimate has remained uncertain due to the short length of instrumental measurements and inconsistent results from climate model simulations. This lack of understanding ... -
Global Stokes drift climate under the RCP8.5 scenario
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The future Stokes drift climate is investigated using a global wave climate projection (2071–2100) forced with EC-EARTH winds under the RCP8.5 scenario. The future climate run is compared against a historical run (1976–2005). ... -
Lanthanide complex-incorporated periodic mesoporous organosilica nanospheres with tunable photoluminescence
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-09-23)A series of nanoscale periodic mesoporous organosilica spheres (PMOSs) have been synthesized via the co-condensation of N,N-bis(trimethoxysilylpropyl)-2,6-pyridine dicarboxamide (DPA-Si) and tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) ... -
Longitudinal magnetic resonance imaging-based assessment of vascular changes and radiation response in androgen-sensitive prostate carcinoma xenografts under androgen-exposed and androgen-deprived conditions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2010-10)Prostate cancer (PCa) patients receive androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT) to reduce tumor burden. However, complete eradication of PCa is unusual, and recurrent disease is evident within approximately 2 years in high-risk ... -
Mercury bioaccumulation pathways in tusk (Brosme brosme) from Sognefjord, Norway: Insights from C and N isotopes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-11)Seafood is the main source of methylmercury (MeHg) exposure for humans and elevated total mercury (Hg) concentrations have been reported in marine fish from Norwegian fjords compared with offshore areas. Hg in tusk fillets ... -
Metabolomic and transcriptomic response to imatinib treatment of gastrointestinal stromal tumour in xenograft-bearing mice
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Background Although imatinib is a well-established first-line drug for treating a vast majority of gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GIST), GISTs acquire secondary resistance during therapy. Multi-omics approaches provide ... -
Modeling cultural dissemination and divergence between rural and urban regions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-10-31)The process by which beliefs, opinions, and other individual, socially malleable attributes spread across a society, known as "cultural dissemination," is a broadly recognized concept among sociologists and political ... -
Processes Driving Global Interior Ocean pH Distribution
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Ocean acidification evolves on the background of a natural ocean pH gradient that is the result of the interplay between ocean mixing, biological production and remineralization, calcium carbonate cycling, and temperature ... -
Rapid temporal decline of mercury in Greenland halibut (Reinhardtius hippoglossoides)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Mercury (Hg) pollution in the ocean is an issue of global concern, however bioaccumulation regimes of this ubiquitous pollutant in marine apex predators have important knowledge gaps. Our fish length and stable isotope ... -
Sequential extraction procedure to obtain the composition of terrigenous detritus in marine sediments
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The geochemical and isotopic composition of terrigenous clays from marine sediments can provide important information on the sources and pathways of sediments. In order to extract the detrital signal from bulk marine ... -
A Study of Automatically Detected Flow Channels in the Polar Cap Ionosphere
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-11-13)This paper presents a new algorithm for detecting high‐speed flow channels in the polar cap. The algorithm was applied to Super Dual Auroral Radar Network data, specifically to data from the new Longyearbyen radar. This ... -
A survey of dioxin-like contaminants in fish from recreational fishing.
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)The dioxin and dioxin-like compounds are regarded as one of the most toxic group of environmental contaminants. Food for the commercial market is regularly monitored for their dioxin levels and the concentration allowed ... -
