  Microplastic pellets in Arctic marine sediments: a common source or a common process? 

  Collard, France; Hallanger, Ingeborg G.; Philipp, Carolin; Herzke, Dorte; Hotvedt, Ådne; Galtung, Kristin; Rydningen, Tom Arne; Litti, Lucio; Gentili, Giulia; Husum, Katrine; Schmidt, Nathascha (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2025-05-05)

  Plastic consumption is increasing, and millions of tonnes of plastic are released into the oceans every year. Plastic materials are accumulating in the marine environment, especially on the seafloor. The Arctic is contaminated with plastics, including microplastics (MPs, <5 mm) but occurrences, concentrations and fate are largely unknown. This study aimed at assessing whether MPs accumulate at greater ...

  Study of the energy consumption and duration of a Cyber-Physical System reconfiguration in the Arctic Tundra: from experiments on real infrastructure to extensive simulations 

  Omond, Antoine (Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2025-05-23)

  Cyber-Physical systems (CPS) deployed in scarce-resource environments like the Arctic Tundra for in-situ and long-term observation face extreme conditions. Nodes deployed on the field are under a limited energy budget. To save energy and increase their lifetimes, nodes are forced to alternate between short uptime periods and long sleeping periods. Uptime schedules depend notably on observation tasks ...

  Arctic fjord ecosystem adaptation to cryosphere meltdown over the past 14,000 years 

  Knies, Jochen Manfred; Ahn, Youngkyu; Ebner, Berenice; Smik, Lukas; Jang, Kwangchul; Nam, Seung-Il; Belt, Simon T.; Schubert, Carsten J. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2025-04-25)

  The Arctic cryosphere is the epicentre of acute global change impact, with abrupt warming and amplification driving rapid sea ice decline and irreversible glacial ice loss. A key challenge is understanding how the cryosphere meltdown will impact Arctic marine carbon cycles and ecosystems. Here, we use organic geochemical biomarkers to trace the contribution of different planktonic groups to organic ...

  WORKSHOP MNT konferansen 2025: Praksis i disiplin og tverrfaglige studieprogram: Hva, hvorfor og hvordan? 

  Holtermann, Kristin; Soule, Jonathan; Cotner, Sehoya Harris; Sundset, Monica Alterskjær; Finstad, Bjørn-Petter; Lien, Ingrid Hovda; van der Meeren, Gro Ingleid; Velle, Gaute; Sandvoll, Ragnhild (Conference object; Konferansebidrag, 2025)

  I løpet av de siste tiårene har flere fagmiljø i høyere utdanning i Norge utviklet og etablert praksisemner for studenter innen disiplinfagene biologi og geologi, samt det tverrfaglige studiet fiskeri og havbruksvitenskap. I denne workshopen vil vi gjennomføre en interaktiv “Jigsaw aktivitet” for å presentere og diskutere erfaringer og forskningsresultater fra implementeringen av disse praksisemnene ...

  Narrating the soundscape of coastal tourism 

  Bertella, Giovanna; Vester, Heike Iris (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2025-05-06)

  This research letter concerns the soundscape along the Norwegian coastline, but the concepts can be applied to most coastal destinations. We wrote this letter in our roles as scholars of tourism and biology as well as members of a non-profit organisation located in northern Norway that is dedicated to science, conservation and the protection of marine mammals. By contrasting a promotional video with ...
