    • Distinct change in zooplankton zoogeography in high-Arctic Isfjorden, Svalbard 

      Stürzinger, Vegard (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2023-08-18)
      Klimaendringer påvirker arktis mer en andre områder i verden. Isfjorden på Svalbard utgjør et et utmerket modellsystem for å måle endringer i zooplanktonsammfunnet. IMOS tidserien ved Janne Søreide med kolleger har samlet in data i over 20 år, og konsekvent for flere stasjoner i de siste 8 årene. I denne master oppgaven ser jeg på hvordan zoogeografisk relativ abundans har endret seg de siste 12 ...
    • Let it glow! Adapting a method to detect microplastics in snow and evaluate the potential for long-range transport 

      Stürzinger, Vegard (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2020-05-31)
      Harmonization of methods in microplastics research is lacking; this is affecting the comparability of results and hindering reproducibility. Investigating microplastics in snow is a relatively new field of research, and it can be used to answer questions about long-range atmospheric transport of microplastics. In this thesis, snow sampling methods were combined with the dye, Nile Red, to develop a ...
