    • Morphological update on Calycina marina (Pezizellaceae, Helotiales, Leotiomycetes), a new combination for Laetinaevia marina 

      Baral, Hans-Otto; Rämä, Teppo (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-11-05)
      Laetinaevia marina is a frequent ascomycetous fungus that is widely distributed on the seashores of Scandinavia and Great Britain. It grows on fronds of Fucales (Phaeophyceae) that are washed ashore and lie decaying at the high tide mark or further up on the beach. It is one of the few described marine discomycetes. In the current generic concept it is regarded as a member of Naevioideae ...
    • Motivation for learning statistics: An example from fishery and aquaculture science 

      Sønvisen, Signe Annie (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-04-15)
      Teaching statistics to generalist students oriented toward a profession, rather than academic merits, may be challenging. As statistics courses also tend to have a low student appeal, tailoring a course toward this type of audience is demanding. Framed within the theory of statistical thinking and literacy, this article shows how an investigative process, using domain data and real-life examples, ...
    • MPA in Labor: Securing the Pearl Cays of Nicaragua 

      Gonzalez, Clarence; Jentoft, Svein (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2011)
      Implementation of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) has always a step-zero, i.e., an initial phase when the idea is incepted, communicated and negotiated among stakeholders. What happens during this phase is likely to have an impact later on. If not done right, the management of the MPA may encounter problems at later stage that will be difficult to correct. Inspired by this working theory, this article ...

    • Mucosal and systemic physiological changes underscore the welfare risks of environmental hydrogen sulphide in post-smolt Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) 

      Lazado, Carlo C.; Stiller, Kevin Torben; Timmerhaus, Gerrit; Reiten, Britt Kristin Megård; Nicolaysen, Ilona Lorraine; Carletto, Danilo; Alipio, Hanna Ross De Dios; Hansen-Bergstedt, Julie; Andersen, Øivind (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-01-04)
      Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) might encounter toxic hydrogen sulphide (H<sub>2</sub>S) gas during aquaculture production. Exposure to this gas can be acute or chronic, with heightened levels often linked to significant mortality rates. Despite its recognised toxicity, our understanding of the physiological implications of H<sub>2</sub>S on salmon remains limited. This report details the mucosal and ...
    • Mucosal Environment Induces Phage Susceptibility in Streptococcus mutans 

      Sundberg, Lotta-Riina; Rantanen, Noora; de Freitas Almeida, Gabriel Magno (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-09-19)
      Pathogenic bacteria are attracted toward mucosa, as it is their way of entry into the body. However, we know surprisingly little about the phage-bacterium interactions in the mucosal environment. Here, we explored the effect of the mucosal environment on growth characteristics and phage-bacterium interactions in Streptococcus mutans, a causative agent of dental caries. We found that although mucin ...
    • A multi-region and multi-period harvest schedule of the trawl fleet 

      Alizadeh Ashrafi, Tannaz; Ersdal, Anne Mai; Nordli, Anders Samuelsen (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-01-21)
      Under the individual vessel quota regulations, the expected economic return of a multi species fishery is influenced by an array of a multi-component choice such as targeted species, landings per haul, harvesting time and its location. The components of effort allocation decisions are further complicated by changes in the market conditions and the constant movements of fish between spawning and ...

      Despite increased fisheries science output and publication outlets, the global crisis in fisheries management is as present as ever. Since a narrow research focus may be a contributing factor to this failure, this study uncovers topics in fisheries research and their trends over time. This interdisciplinary research evaluates whether science is diversifying fisheries research topics in an attempt ...
    • The Nasal Geometry of the Reindeer Gives Energy-Efficient Respiration 

      Magnanelli, Elisa; Wilhelmsen, Øivind; Acquarone, Mario; Folkow, Lars; Kjelstrup, Signe (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-07-14)
      Reindeer in the arctic region live under very harsh conditions and may face temperatures below 233 K. Therefore, efficient conservation of body heat and water is important for their survival. Alongside their insulating fur, the reindeer nasal mechanism for heat and mass exchange during respiration plays a fundamental role. We present a dynamic model to describe the heat and mass transport that takes ...

Vi forklarer bakgrunnen for begrepet økosystemtjenester, ...
    • The Neglected Marine Fungi, Sensu stricto, and Their Isolation for Natural Products’ Discovery 

      Overy, David P.; Rämä, Teppo; Oosterhuis, Rylee; Walker, Allison K.; Pang, Ka-Lai (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-01-10)
      Despite the rapid development of molecular techniques relevant for natural product research, culture isolates remain the primary source from which natural products chemists discover and obtain new molecules from microbial sources. Techniques for obtaining and identifying microbial isolates (such as filamentous fungi) are thus of crucial importance for a successful natural products’ discovery program. ...
    • Nemo-effekten og koraller 

      Armstrong, Claire W.; Aanesen, Margrethe (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2014-05-07)
      Bryr den norske befolkningen seg om dyphavet og de organismer som lever der selv om vi ikke har noen direkte nytte av dem? Er vi villig til å ofre økonomisk aktivitet som fiskeri og oljevirksomhet for beskytte miljøet i dyphavet? Vår studie sier ja.
    • A netting-based alternative to rigid sorting grids in the small-meshed Norway pout (Trisopterus esmarkii) trawl fishery 

      Eigaard, Ole R.; Herrmann, Bent; Feekings, Jordan; Krag, Ludvig Ahm; Sparrevohn, Claus R. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-01-28)
      A new bycatch reduction device, termed “Excluder”, is presented as an alternative to a traditional rigid sorting grid, mandatory in the small-meshed Norway Pout (<i>Trisopterus esmarkii</i>) trawl fishery in the North Sea. The fishery is a high-volume fishery with large vessels, large demersal trawls and catches up to 100 tons per haul of this small forage fish. The Excluder is a 30 m long netting-based ...
    • New approach for modelling size selectivity in shrimp trawl fisheries 

      Larsen, Roger B.; Herrmann, Bent; Sistiaga, Manu Berrondo; Brinkhof, Jesse; Tatone, Ivan; Langård, Lise (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-07-10)
      In the deep sea trawl fishery targeting shrimp (Pandalus borealis) and other cold-water shrimp species, fishers often use a Nordmöre sorting grid ahead of a small mesh codend to avoid bycatch. However, small fish can pass through the grid and are subsequently retained in the codend. This makes shrimp size selection complex and the size-dependent curve for both the shrimp and the bycatch species often ...
