      Le, Doan Dung (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2007-05)
      The marine protected area (MPA) of Nha Trang Bay, in eastern Vietnam, was created in 2002 as a pilot initiative to enable an adequate management of the fringing reef communities, while providing opportunities for alternative livelihoods to the local fisher populations. A reassessment of the data obtained during the baseline survey performed in 2002 and of an inventory performed in 2005 indicates ...
    • Metazoan Parasites in deep-sea sharks Part I. A Review of the Parasite Fauna of sharks of the genus Etmopterus Part II. Metazoan gastrointestinal parasites of Etmopterus spinax (L., 1758) from southern Norwegian waters 

      Costa Ramos Da Rocha Marques, Diogo (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2019-11-15)
      Parasites play an important role in ecology due to their potential influence on the biodiversity and dynamics of ecosystems. The complexity of interaction between parasites and their hosts is crucial to understanding the host’s populations dynamics, behaviour as well as interconnections between food chains in an ecosystem. Parasites have wide applications as bio-indicators for example to detect and ...
    • Modelling the bycatch reduction of a shrimp trawl with a combined Nordmøre grid and sieve panel configuration in the north east Atlantic deep-water shrimp (Pandalus borealis) fishery 

      Jacques, Nadine Louise (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2018-06-01)
      The aim of this study was to investigate whether a sieve panel could be an alternative to the Nordmøre grid or if a sieve panel could combine with the Nordmøre grid regarding bycatch reduction while simultaneously maintaining shrimp retention in the Northeast Atlantic deep-water shrimp (Pandalus borealis) fishery. These gears are the two most established bycatch reduction devices used today in shrimp ...

    • Natural transformation in Streptococcus gordonii biofilm 

      Rahman, Fatema (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2011-06-01)
      Natural transformation is one of the three mechanisms of horizontal gene transfer by which bacteria are able to take up free DNA from the surrounding environment. In natural ecosystems, bacteria preferentially attach to surfaces, forming matrix-enclosed communities known as biofilm. Biofilm cells differ phenotypically and physiologically from their free-floating counterparts. Objective: To estimate ...

      Gupta, Aashish (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2022-05-16)
      Aquaculture has been an integral part of human civilization since 3500 BC. The practices and the techniques have evolved across the world to suit a) production scale, b) climatic conditions and c) type of fish being harvested. What started as a basis of nutrition for coastal civilization has now metamorphized into an excellent source of income as well as nutrition in poorer countries like Nepal. ...
    • The new Common Fisheries Policy and its landing obligation- Implications for governability and legitimacy. A case study of the Scottish mixed roundfish trawl fishery 

      Kolflaath, Bjørnar Siikavuopio (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2015-05-18)
      The European Union has been applying a top-down and centralized approach to management of fish stocks to try dealing with the complexity of the marine environment. Since the establishment of the Common Fisheries Policy in 1983 the principle of relative stability has maintained the main resource “conservation” component of the policy, despite all its criticism for being the major driving factor for ...

    • Nutrients as controlling factors of phytoplankton. Production in the Balsfjord - Northern Norway 

      Adjetey, Eric Teye (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2009-05-15)
      Fisheries management research is mostly centered on providing the needed knowledge about the fish stock in order to influence fishermen’s behavior at sea for stock sustainability. Management should also integrate knowledge acquired from primary producers (particularly phytoplankton) which form the foundations for fish production in implementing fishing controlling measures. Phytoplankton production ...
    • Nutritional composition of aquatic species in Laotian rice field ecosystems : possible impact of reduced biodiversity 

      Nurhasan, Mulia (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2008-05-22)
      The population density of Laos PDR has increased from 15 persons per square km in 1985 to 19 persons in 1995 and to 24 persons in 2005. This has threatened food security, which in Laos PDR is generally synonymous with rice availability. Rice production in Laos rose by 70 percent from 1990 to 2004. Evidence from Vietnam, Malaysia and Central Thailand has shown that the rise of rice production steadily ...
