Ice-free period too long for Southern and Western Hudson Bay polar bear populations if global warming exceeds 1.6 to 2.6 °C
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-06-13)Hudson Bay has warmed over 1 °C in the last 30 years. Coincident with this warming, seasonal patterns have shifted, with the spring sea ice melting earlier and the fall freeze-up occurring later, leading to a month longer of ice-free conditions. This extended ice-free period presents a significant challenge for polar bears, as it restricts their hunting opportunities for seals and their ability ... -

A solar cycle clock for extreme space weather
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-04-08)The variable solar cycle of activity is a long-standing problem in physics. It modulates the overall level of space weather activity at earth, which in turn can have significant societal impact. The Hilbert transform of the sunspot number is used to map the variable length, approximately 11 year Schwabe cycle onto a uniform clock. The clock is used to correlate extreme space weather seen in the aa ... -
The Impact of Climate Change on Construction Activity Performance
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-01-31)There are specific construction operations that require weather forecast data to make short-term decisions regarding construction; however, most resource-related decision making and all project management plans must be carried out to anticipate weather conditions beyond the capabilities of the currently available forecasting technologies.

Marine oils were produced post-catch using thermal separation and enzymatic hydrolysis ... -
In all languages? How minority languages are excluded from scholarly publishing
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-01-23)English may have become the lingua franca of academia, but there are good grounds for preserving linguistic diversity in scholarly communication, including public engagement and impact generation at a local level. Several initiatives have emerged in recent years that seek to promote multilingualism in scholarly communication as an expression of bibliodiversity, among them the ‘In all languages’ ... -

Automated Avalanche Terrain Exposure Scale (ATES) mapping - local validation and optimization in western Canada
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-03-20)The Avalanche Terrain Exposure Scale (ATES) is a system for classifying mountainous terrain based on the degree of exposure to avalanche hazard. The intent of ATES is to improve backcountry recreationist’s ability to make informed risk management decisions by simplifying their terrain analysis. Access to ATES has been largely limited to manually generated maps in high-use areas due to the cost and ... -

Tis study aimed to assess awareness of these three conditions among Russian adults (N = 3803) and the associated socio-demographic, lifestyle, and health characteristics. ... -
Medicalization of Old Age: Experiencing Healthism and Overdiagnosis in a Nordic Welfare State
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-05-16)In Denmark, people are expected to take responsibility for their health, not least as their bodies age and they experience signs of physical or mental decline. Drawing on fieldwork among older Danes, I illustrate that an excessive focus on health gives rise to social and structural controversies and disparities, linking ideas of healthy behavior at the individual level with the societal framing of ... -
Risk of death in Klebsiella pneumoniae bloodstream infections is associated with specific phylogenetic lineages
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-04-02)Background: Klebsiella pneumoniae species complex (KpSC) bloodstream infections (BSIs) are associated with considerable morbidity and mortality, particularly in elderly and multimorbid patients.
