This article discusses methodological aspects of an ongoing research project on Kven worldings. The work is inspired by Donna Haraway’s perspectives on situated research. A metalogue, where the authors share reflections and discuss their maneuvers as researchers, makes visible some of the ontological and epistemological troubles the researchers are facing related to the philosophical research approach, ...

This article explores Southern Saami reindeer herders’ experiences and contestations over state consultation and corporate dialogue during a confict over the Øy ellet wind energy project in Norway. Informed by a committed research approach and juxtaposition with findings from Indigenous peoples’ territorial struggles in Latin-America, the article provides critical perspectives on governance ...

To manage for more sustainable wildlife viewing tourism, a better understanding of tourists’ behaviour that might disturb and negatively affect wildlife such as birds is needed. We conducted a qualitative case study of visitors to Hornøya, a protected bird cliff in Northern Norway. Behaviours with the potential to disturb seabirds at the site were explored using the theory of planned behaviour ...

Free traveling Rossby wave normal modes (RNMs) are often investigated through large‐scale space‐time spectral analyses, which therefore is subject to observational availability, especially in the mesosphere. Ground‐based mesospheric observations were broadly used to identify RNMs mostly according to the periods of RNMs without resolving their horizontal scales. The current study diagnoses zonal wave ...

Zooplankton abundance and community structures were studied in three west Spitsbergen fjords at the beginning of the warm phase, which seem to have entered in 2006. Sampling was conducted in summer 2007 at stations distributed along transects in Hornsund, Isfjorden and Kongsfjorden. Variations in zooplankton standing stocks and community structures (assessing taxonomic diversity and zoogeographical ...

Året 1877 ble Macks bryggeri stiftet av en andre generasjons innvandrer, bakersønnen Ludwig Mack. Bryggeriet vokste snart til å bli en av Tromsøs viktigste industribedrifter.

Excessive myocardial oxygen consumption (MVO₂) is considered a limitation for catecholamines, termed oxygen cost of contractility. We hypothesize that increased MVO₂ induced by dobutamine is not directly related to contractility but linked to intermediary myocardial metabolism. Furthermore, we hypothesize that selective b₃ adrenergic receptor (b₃AR) ...
