First Steps Towards RAT: A Protocol for Documenting Data Use in the Agent-Based Modeling Process
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2021)While there is a number of frameworks and protocols in Agent-Based Modeling (ABM) that support the documentation of different aspects of a simulation study, it is surprising to find only a small number dealing with the handling of data. Here we present the results of discussions we had on the topic at the Lorentz Center workshop on Integrating Qualitative and Quantitative Evidence using Social ... -
Country of ownership influence on brand equity and loyalty
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2023-05-31)This study aims to investigate the impact of country of ownership on Norwegian consumers' brand attitudes, perceived quality, brand value, and loyalty. As companies increasingly internationalize, it becomes crucial to examine how this may influence brand equity and identify strategies to mitigate any potential negative effects. This knowledge would be beneficial for both national and international ... -
Ultrasonic imaging as a means of monitoring gonadal development in lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus)
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-09-21)The commercial farming of juvenile lumpfish requires monitoring of gonadal development to achieve synchronized production. Conventional methods such as gonadosomatic index (GSI), sex hormone analyses, gonadal histology, endoscopy, and gene expression analyses are costly, invasive, and often involve sacrificing the fish. We assessed the efficiency of ultrasound as a non-invasive method for monitoring ... -
Long-term herbivore removal experiments reveal how geese and reindeer shape vegetation and ecosystem CO2-fluxes in high-Arctic tundra
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-09-23)1. Given the current rates of climate change, with associated shifts in herbivore population densities, understanding the role of different herbivores in ecosystem functioning is critical for predicting ecosystem responses. Here, we examined how migratory geese and resident, non-migratory reindeer—two dominating yet functionally contrasting herbivores—control vegetation and ecosystem processes in ... -
Marine Micro- and Macroalgae in the Polar Night
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2020)Microalgae have unique adaptions including low metabolic activity, utilization of lipid storage, and resting stage formation to survive the Polar Night. Some species are mixotrophic or heterotrophic and do survive periods that are not favorable for photosynthetic (autotrophic) growth, such as the Polar Night. In addi- tion, the autotrophic and mixotrophic species seem to maintain the key components ... -
Trapped in the TAC Machine: Making a Fisheries-Based Indicator System for Coastal Cod in Steigen, Norway
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2020)The GAP project is concerned with the lack of stakeholder participation in providing knowledge for management. This creates a legitimacy problem as the fishermen do not get to share the knowledge basis for and justification of management decisions. In addition, fishermen’s experience-based knowledge remains unused. GAP intends to bridge the legitimacy and knowledge gaps, finding practical ways for ... -
Bridging the Gap: Experiments in the Heart of the Transition Zone
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2020)This book is about the on-going transition of fisheries governance and the emergence of research practices and advice frameworks that allow for the co-creation of common knowledge bases for management. This chapter introduces the context under which the GAP project (‘Bridging the gap between science and stakeholders') was conceived, describes its overall approach, orientates the reader to key issues ... -
Knowledge for Fisheries Governance: Participation, Integration and Institutional Reform
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2020)As outlined in Chapter 1, the GAP project is situated within a transition zone from a traditional fisheries management approach that relies upon a clear separation of knowledge towards a new ‘bridging perspective’, which aims to establish a common knowledge base for fisheries governance. The transition builds on collaborative practices of participatory research and joint knowledge production, as ... -
Bridging Gaps, Reforming Fisheries
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2020)Scientific debates often revolve around the issues of ‘unbiased science’ with the majority of scientists keeping themselves at arm’s length from policy-making to ensure their credibility. Participatory research has been shifting these dynamics and has led to the emergence of research practices and advice frameworks that allow co-creation of common knowledge bases for management. This chapter, following ... -
Conclusion
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2020)This chapter summarizes the arguments and discusses the results of the GAP project in the context of the ongoing reform in fisheries governance. -
Small-Scale Fisheries Governance in Norway: Hierarchy, Institutions and Markets
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2020-04-29)Small-scale fisheries are highly relevant in Norway. Until 1989, small-scale fisheries were open access and, like other Norwegian fisheries, subsidised; since then they have changed radically. The closure of major fisheries in the early 1990s, following collapses in important stocks and the removal of direct subsidies, has affected fisheries of all sizes. Societal changes have also had an impact on ... -

Startup Competitions Decoded: Unpacking the Phenomenon's Dimensions
(Conference object; Konferansebidrag, 2023-09-18)Drawing on a typological theorizing style (Cornelissen, 2017), this paper investigates and deconstructs the fuzzy nature of startup competitions (Cornelissen, Höllerer and Seidl, 2021). Despite the pivotal role that startup competitions play in promoting innovation and shaping policies related to business creation and welfare there exists a scarcity of comprehensive research that thoroughly investigates ... -
Digital forretningsmodellinnovasjon: Filmfestival i endring
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2021)Publikum besøker filmfestivaler, alene eller sammen med andre mennesker, fordi de gir verdifulle opplevelser. Uansett motiver for å delta på en filmfestival er tilstedeværelsen avgjørende for øyeblikkopplevelsen. Digitalisering samt siste års pandemi har vist oss at denne tilstedeværelsen kan være digital så vel som fysisk. Nye, innovative teknologiløsninger kan hjelpe bedrifter og reisemål til å ... -
Økonomiske konsekvenser for mindre aktører av ulike skattemodeller i havbruk: En komparativ analyse av den norske og den færøyske modellen
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2023-05-29)Denne oppgaven handler om Finansdepartementets forslag til innføring av grunnrenteskatt i havbruksnæringen. Begrunnelsen for å innføre en slik skatt er at den ekstra profitten, eller grunnrenten som havbruksnæringen tjener gjennom statlige reguleringer av begrensede ressurser, også skal komme felleskapet til gode. Som svar på Finansdepartementets forslag har Sjømat Norge fremmet en alternativ metode ... -
Seleksjon i Forsvaret
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2023-06-01)Denne oppgaven ønsker å gi svar på om Forsvaret selekterer ledere for fremtiden, og hvorvidt lederopptaket predikerer senere karriereprestasjoner. Riktig seleksjon er viktig for alle organisasjoner, men spesielt viktig for Forsvaret som med sitt mandat i ytterste konsekvens gir lederen ansvar for oppdrag som kan bety forskjellen på liv eller død. Det er gjennomført en longitunell undersøkelse ... -
Exploring quantitative modelling of semantic factors for content marketing
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2023-05-31)Developments in business analytics as well as an increased availability of data has allowed digital marketers to better understand and capitalize on consumer behavior to maximize the engagement with marketing materials. However, because most previous studies in this field have focused on consumer behavior theory, they have been largely limited in scope due to small datasets and reliance on human-labeled ... -
