  • From Pride to Progress: Promoting Sustainable Fashion Consumption Through Strategic Framing 

    Arnesen, Sarah Lisa (Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2025-09-19)
    The fashion industry faces growing criticism for its negative environmental and social impacts, highlighting the urgent need for sustainable practices and responsible consumption. Although many consumers express positive attitudes toward sustainability, these attitudes often do not translate into actual behavior. This disconnect, known as the attitude and behavior gap, poses a critical challenge for ...
  • Leveraging Life Cycle Assessment for Energy Transition in Iron Ore Production 

    Pouresmaieli, Mahdi; Nouri, Ali; Barabadi, Abbas (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2025-07-14)
    In this study, titled “Reducing the Carbon Footprint of a Medium-Scale Iron Ore Complex with a Sustainable Development Approach”, a Cradle-to-Gate Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) was conducted across the stages of extraction, concentrate processing, and pellet production. The significance of the topic lies in the mining industry's considerable share in energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, ...
  • Atmospheric Ice Accretion Emergency Events Management: Power Distribution Networks 

    Nouri, Ali; Barabady, Javad; Barabadi, Abbas (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2025-07-22)
    As climate change intensifies, extreme weather events—such as heatwaves, floods, and atmospheric icing—pose growing threats to critical infrastructure systems. Power distribution networks in cold regions are particularly vulnerable to Atmospheric Icing Accretion Emergency Events (AIAEEs), which can trigger mechanical failures, electrical faults, and prolonged outages. To address these complex ...
  • Pathological mechanisms of the ubiquitin E3 ligases TRIM27, TRIM32 and TRIM45 in cancer and autophagy 

    Berge, Anne Kristin McLaren (Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2025-09-26)
    TRIM proteins are E3 ubiquitin ligases, meaning that they modify other substrate proteins with ubiquitin, either tagging them for destruction or influencing their function. We have focused on three TRIM proteins, TRIM32, TRIM45, and TRIM27. Using in silico and in vitro methods we have further elucidated the importance of TRIM proteins in tumorigenesis and autophagy. In our study we found ...
  • Characterization, calibration and optical performance of ocean light instruments and the legal background for deployment in the Arctic 

    Schartmüller, Bernhard (Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2025-09-19)
    While commercial light instruments can measure high and medium light intensities, there are few that can capture the low light conditions, consisting of light from moon, stars and aurora, that prevail during the (polar) night. In the ocean, light intensities are even lower because of the high absorption of water, optically significant constituents and phytoplankton. In polar regions, snow and sea ...
