Kiselalger som fôrkomponent i laksefôr. Biokjemisk sammensetning og fettsyreprofil hos atlantisk laks (Salmo salar L.) fôret med ulike lipid- og proteinkilder
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2020-05-15)Det økende behovet for marine ressurser som ingrediens i fôr har ført til et søk etter nye ressurser, da dagens ressurser ikke lengre er bærekraftig. For å øke utbytte er det foreslått å rette søket lengre ned i næringskjeden. Marine kiselalger er et eksempel på slike organismer. Disse er ikke godt utnyttet i dag, hovedsakelig på grunn av manglende kunnskap rundt teknologi, samt forskning på hvilke ... -

Oceanic plastic pollution caused by Danish seine fishing in Norway
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-05-06)Wear and tear on fishing gear is a sparsely investigated source of microplastic pollution in the sea. In Norway, Danish seine ropes and trawls are the fishing gears that contribute most to this pollution. The main reason for this pollution is that the seine ropes are dragged along the seabed over a considerable distance, creating a friction force that results in high ropes wear. This note reports ... -

Effect of dietary components on the gut microbiota of aquatic animals. A never-ending story?
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-11-07)It is well known that healthy gut microbiota is essential to promote host health and well-being. The intestinal microbiota of endothermic animals as well as fish are classified as autochthonous or indigenous, when they are able to colonize the host’s epithelial surface or are associated with the microvilli, or as allochthonous or transient (associated with digesta or are present in the lumen). ... -
RAT-RS: a reporting standard for improving the documentation of data use in agent-based modelling
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-03-30)This article describes and justifies a reporting standard to improve data use documentation in Agent-Based Modelling. Following the development of reporting standards for models themselves, empirical modelling has now developed to the point where these standards need to take equally effective account of data use (which previously has tended to be an afterthought to model description). It is ... -
