The Scandinavian concept of friluftsliv has become established in the international literature on outdoor life. However, when emphasising fri-luftsliv as a recreational way of outdoor life, other understandings and nuances are disguised. With a post-colonial and Indigenous methodolo-gical perspective, the authors argue that the Sámi words olggonastin, meahcástallan and olggustállan are often more ...

In O’Sadnick et al. (2020), estimations of ice extent along the coast of Norway since 2001 determined from MODIS imagery are presented. From our findings, it is evident that the amount of ice in one fjord over time often varies and shows little consistency leading to the next question of ‘Why’? The study continues to relate freezing degree days, rainfall plus snowmelt, and snowfall to values of ...

The understanding of the relationship between language, ethnic groups, and material culture in prehistory is still very limited, even within highly competent academic communities. To researchers without archaeological training it may be easy to make a direct association between archaeological cultures, distribution of signifi cant artefact types, and ethnic groups, especially as such explicit links ...

Since 2014, an electronic prescribing system has been piloted for patients receiving medications as multidose drug dispensing; a system commonly used in home care services. In this longitudinal study of 499 patients, we investigate workload at the pharmacies, measured as the number of times pharmacists assess prescriptions. In the 26-week period before the implementation, 17% of the patients got ...

Background - At the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, guidance was needed more than ever to direct frontline healthcare and national containment strategies. Rigorous guidance based on robust research was compromised by the emergence of the pandemic and the urgency of need for guidance. Rather than aiming to “get guidance right”, guidance developers needed to “get guidance right now”.<p> <p>Aim - ...

Measuring viscosity online in processes is crucial to maintaining the quality of many chemical and biological processes. The damping induced by the liquid around the resonator is used to determine the viscosity of the liquids. Typical viscosity sensors are probe style and obstruct the piping system, disturbing the flow and creating a potential source of contamination in critical processes. The ...

This study aims to evaluate the global functional outcomes after moderate-to-severe traumatic injury at 6 and 12 months and to examine the sociodemographic and injury-related factors that predict these outcomes. A prospective cohort study was conducted in which trauma patients of all ages with a New Injury Severity Score > 9 who were discharged alive from two regional trauma centres in Norway ...

Denne rapporten presenterer nullpunktsituasjonen knyttet til grunneier- og partssammensatte verneområdestyrer i Raet nasjonalpark, Jomfruland nasjonalpark og Trollheimen landskapsvernområde. Bidrar forsøksordningen med grunneier- og brukerrepresentanter i nasjonalpark- og verneområdestyrer til forenkling, effektivisering og økt medvirkning? Er det slik at verneverdiene påvirkes av ny styresammensetning? ...
