Am I Sámi Enough? Narratives as a Means of Exploring a Sámi Pedagogy for Kindergarten
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2024-07-15)“Muitalus” is “story” or “narrative” in North Sámi. The word is closely related to the word for “remember” – “muitit”. The objective of narrative inquiry is to transform those who are participating. Such an enquiry must carry expectations for the future. In indigenous societies, telling stories has always been a means of transferring knowledge, sharing knowledge of expected behavior, or learning ... -
She's the Lion King!
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2024-07-15)In this autobiographical narrative inquiry, which is framed within the three-dimensional space of temporality, sociality and place, the author takes us back to her earliest memories of being a child – and of being a teacher – in kindergarten. Parallel to retelling these memories, the author reflects on how the kindergarten as an institution has developed in Norway, and on what belonging to kindergarten ... -
On the Traveling and Turns of Being and Becoming a Narrative Inquirer
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2024-07-15)I am a narrative inquirer still in the making. My journey of being and becoming a narrative inquirer, so far, has involved a series of personal and professional turns. In this chapter I draw on two painful experiences of shortcoming and the apparent paradox that every time we perform a turn, we are looking backwards in order to move forward. Turning points are openings to learning and to surprise. ... -
Fellesskap og klassebevissthet i det meritokratiske klassesamfunnet – en klasseanalyse
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2024-06-25)I dette kapittelet skal vi se nærmere på fellesskap forstått som sosial integrasjon og kollektiv bevissthet i et klasseperspektiv, hvor klasseanalysen tar utgangspunkt i klasseidentitet og den subjektive klassestrukturen, eller klasse for seg, i stedet for en mer tradisjonell analyse med utgangspunkt i klasse i seg. Analysen, som også inkluderer funksjonalistiske begreper og en enkel komparativ ... -

Norway stands out for its highly digitalized public sector, a result of strategic legislative and policy initiatives promoting a digital-friendly environment. We ... -
Tømmer i flyt – kvensk kulturarv i bevegelse
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2024-11-04)I dette kapittelet undersøkes forflytninger av tømmervirke i flere kontekster. Tømmeret er bygningsrester fra en gård som iscenesettes i en kunstinstallasjon i samtidskunstutstillingen Kven Connection, stilt ut ved det lokale museet i Vadsø høsten 2017. Forflytningen aktualiserer sentrale spørsmål rundt hvordan museer kan arbeide for å synliggjøre minoritetskultur og skape kulturarv. Analysen viser ... -
Co-observation of germline pathogenic variants in breast cancer predisposition genes: Results from analysis of the BRIDGES sequencing dataset
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-08-02)Co-observation of a gene variant with a pathogenic variant in another gene that explains the disease presentation has been designated as evidence against pathogenicity for commonly used variant classification guidelines. Multiple variant curation expert panels have specified, from consensus opinion, that this evidence type is not applicable for the classification of breast cancer predisposition gene ... -
GEOMETRIC INTEGRATION ON SYMMETRIC SPACES
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-01)We consider geometric numerical integration algorithms for differential equations evolving on symmetric spaces. The integrators are constructed from canonical operations on the symmetric space, its Lie triple system (LTS), and the exponential from the LTS to the symmetric space. Examples of symmetric spaces are n-spheres and Grassmann manifolds, the space of positive definite symmetric matrices, ... -

Preferences for Intuition and Deliberation in Decision-Making in the Public Sector: Cross-Cultural Comparison of China, Taiwan, the Philippines, and the USA
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-02-12)This paper explores hypotheses based on Hofstede’s cultural framework showing that decision-makers’ culture impacts their implicit choice. How people make decisions is tested through the behavioral dimension preference for intuition/preference for deliberation based on data from 1,233 employees in China, Taiwan, the Philippines, and the USA. This study reveals significant variation in individuals’ ... -
Carbon cycling during the India-Asia collision revealed by δ26Mg–δ66Zn–δ98Mo evidence from ultrapotassic volcanoes in NW Tibet
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-06-18)India-Asia continental collision–induced volcanic gas emissions are thought to have played an important role in driving Cenozoic atmospheric CO<sub>2</sub> variations, yet the details of how the deep carbon cycle may influence volcanic CO<sub>2</sub> degassing are not understood. We present a novel study employing Mg-Zn-Mo isotopic compositions of Cenozoic ultrapotassic lavas from NW Tibet. The ... -
Proglacial methane emissions driven by meltwater and groundwater flushing in a high-Arctic glacial catchment
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2025-02-06)Glacial groundwater is a conduit for geologic methane release in areas of glacier retreat on Svalbard, representing a large, climate-sensitive source of the greenhouse gas. Methane emissions from glacial melt rivers are known to occur in other regions of the Arctic, but such emissions have not yet been considered on Svalbard. Over the summer of 2021, we monitored methane concentrations in the ... -
Crustal Heterogeneity Onshore Central Spitsbergen: Insights From New Gravity and Vintage Geophysical Data
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2025-01-23)Gravity data provide constraints on lateral subsurface density variations and thus provide crucial insights into the geological evolution of the region. Previously, gravity data from the Norwegian Arctic archipelago of Svalbard comprised an onshore regional gravity database with coarse station spacing of 2–20 km, offshore gravity profiles acquired in some fjords, airborne gravity, and satellite ... -
A fishy gut feeling – current knowledge on gut microbiota in teleosts
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2025-01-10)The importance of the gastrointestinal microbiota (GM) in health and disease is widely recognized. Although less is known in fish than in mammals, advances in molecular techniques, such as 16S rRNA sequencing, have facilitated characterization of fish GM, comprising resident autochthonous and transient allochthonous bacteria. The microbial diversity and composition are strongly influenced by diet. ... -

The newly discovered Attu carbonatite of West Greenland: A Mesoproterozoic dyke intrusion enriched in primary Sr-Ba-REE minerals
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-06-22)A newly discovered ca. 1.5 Ga old carbonatite dyke in central West Greenland is characterized by very high contents of rare earth elements (REE), Sr and Ba (up to 12.4 wt% total REE, 14.6 wt% SrO and 12.4 wt% BaO). The dyke occurrence is named ‘Attu carbonatite’ after the nearby village Attu. The carbonatite is primarily composed of carbonate minerals such as Sr-rich calcite (CaCO<sub>3</sub>) and ... -
Photonics of Hydrothermally Treated β-Lactoglobulin Amyloids
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-04-24)Increased temperature and high pressure are applied to β-lactoglobulin fibrils in the autoclave, resulting in the acquisition of a composite material comprised of partially disassembled amyloid fibrils and carbon dots. Confirmation of the preservation of the β-sheet motif attributed to amyloids in the hydrothermally treated fibrils is obtained through wide-angle X-ray scattering and ThT assay. Z-scan ... -
