Solar Orbiter is equipped with electrical antennas performing fast measurements of the surrounding electric field. The antennas register high-velocity dust impacts through the electrical signatures of impact ionization. Although the basic principle of the detection has been known for decades, the understanding of the underlying process is not complete, due to the unique mechanical and electrical ...

Aim - To assess the relationship between periodontitis and experimental pain tolerance.<p> <p>Materials and Methods - Participants from the population-based seventh survey of the Tromsø Study with data on periodontitis were included (n = 3666, 40–84 years old, 51.6% women). Pain tolerance was assessed through (i) pressure pain tolerance (PPT) test with a computerized cuff pressure algometry on ...

During the last few decades, several sectors in Antarctica have transitioned from glacial mass balance equilibrium to mass loss. In order to determine if recent trends exceed the scale of natural variability, long-term observations are vital. Here we explore the earliest, large-scale, aerial image archive of Antarctica to provide a unique record of 21 outlet glaciers along the coastline of East ...

This chapter outlines the development of “The Ocean Senses Activity Book” integrating a multisensory approach to ocean education for pupils and the general public. Originating from an expedition in the Arctic Ocean, the project aimed to cultivate more effective cognitive approaches to ocean literacy education and communication. It bridged the gap between scientific exploration and public engagement, ...

This chapter frames marine sustainability within ongoing global and regional initiatives in lifelong learning and adult education. The authors of this chapter argue that to achieve the ambitious targets set out in the SDGs, our adult population must be able to recognise, engage with, and act upon economic, social, and environmental challenges. The authors of this chapter present the many barriers ...

The report documents the experience and knowledge gained during the Ocean Incubator Network workshop on Ocean Literacy, led by Margherita Paola Poto and Laura Vita. The event was held at the Arctic House in Copenhagen and funded by UArctic UiT, The Arctic University of Norway, over May 2-4, 2024. The workshop was organized as a dynamic living laboratory facilitating active participation and contribution ...

This thesis focuses on participation in physical activity among adults with intellectual disabilities. The aim is to explore motivation, the use of mobile health applications, and identify barriers to participation in physical activity. The thesis sought to understand why some individuals engage in physical activity while others do not, and how technology can help increase activity levels. In the ...

Innen ikke-småcellet lungekreft (NSCLC) forskes det på en potensiell synergistisk effekt av kombinasjonen av angiogenesehemmere og immunterapi (med eller uten kjemoterapi). Immunterapi ansees som en av de største nyvinningene innen kreftbehandling, imidlertid vil ikke alle pasientgrupper dra nytte av behandlingen. Man tenker at angiogenesehemmere kan fremme antitumoreffekter via oppregulering av ...

Background: Both children and adolescents often express musculoskeletal pain without a clear somatic cause. The prevalence of musculoskeletal pain has been shown to be increasing. Additionally, there has been described a sharp rise in prevalence of so-called adverse childhood experiences (ACE), and studies have shown that musculoskeletal pain may be related to different ACE. The aim of this study ...

Grain-size end-member (EM) modelling is a robust statistical approach for identifying and quantifying dominant grain-size distributions. This approach provides a novel perspective for understanding the impact of interactions between depositional processes in complex sedimentary environments. This study examines grain-size distributions of six glacimarine sediment cores collected along an Nsingle ...
