  Morphology and Holocene activity of a high-latitude canyon – channel system: The proximal Lofoten Basin channel system (Norwegian Sea) 

  Amundsen, Hilde; Laberg, Jan Sverre; Wiberg, Daniel Hesjedal; Rydningen, Tom Arne; Lasabuda, Amando; Bjordal-Olsen, Stine; Forwick, Matthias (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2025-04-30)

  Canyon – channel systems have the potential to be biological and marine litter “hotspots”, and they can act as important carbon sinks. However, knowledge about the modern (Holocene) activity of many of these systems remains poor. This includes the high-latitude Andøya Canyon - Lofoten Basin Channel located in the Norwegian Sea (∼69oN). This study focuses on the proximal Lofoten Basin Channel and ...

  Environmental effects monitoring of offshore oil and gas activities on the Norwegian continental shelf: A review 

  Beyer, Jonny; Ellingsen, Kari; Yoccoz, Nigel; Buhl-Mortensen, Pål; Bakke, Torgeir (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2025-04-24)

  This review examines the evolution and findings of Norway's offshore environmental monitoring (OEM) program over the past five decades. The program targets soft sediments, water column organisms, and deep-water epifauna across the Norwegian Continental Shelf (NCS) to assess the impacts of offshore oil and gas activities. The program is required by Norwegian authorities and financed by oil and gas ...

  Prevalence and density of Elaphostrongylus rangiferi larvae in faecal samples of semi-domestic reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus) in Norway 2013-16 

  Josefsen, Terje Domaas; Mørk, Torill; Nymo, Ingebjørg Helena; Sanchez Romano, Javier; Tryland, Morten (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2025-01-21)

  Background - The reindeer brainworm, Elaphostrongylus rangiferi, is a protostrongylid parasite of reindeer that has caused severe disease outbreaks in reindeer husbandry. E. rangiferi is considered ubiquitous in Norway, though most published prevalence studies are from Finnmark county only. In the present study, faecal samples were collected over three winter seasons (2013–2016) from eight herds of ...

  Southern Ocean Carbon Export Revealed by Backscatter and Oxygen Measurements From BGC-Argo Floats 

  Liniger, Guillaume; Moreau, Sebastien Daniel Vincent; Lannuzel, Delphine; Carranza, Magdalena M.; Strutton, Peter G. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2025-04-28)

  The Southern Ocean (south of 30°S) contributes significantly to global ocean carbon uptake through the solubility, physical and biological pumps. Many studies have estimated carbon export to the deep ocean, but very few have attempted a basin-scale perspective, or accounted for the sea-ice zone (SIZ). In this study, we use an extensive array of BGC-Argo floats to improve previous estimates of carbon ...

  Contextually determined or semantically distinct? The competition between instrumental, long form nominative and short form nominative in Russian predicate adjectives 

  Nesset, Tore; Janda, Laura Alexis (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2025-03-19)

  Based on data from the syntactic subcorpus of the Russian National Corpus, we undertake a quantitative analysis of the competition between Russian predicate adjectives in the instru- mental (e.g., pustym ‘empty’), the long form nominative (e.g., pustoj ‘empty’), and the short form nominative (e.g., pust ‘empty’). It is argued that the choice of adjective form is partly determined by the context. ...
