Når akademikarar nytar ordet komplekst, lyt ein vere på vakt. Dete er eit moteord som i mange tilfelle tåkelegg meir enn det klargjer. Det gjeld også i ordskiftet om krigen i Ukraina.

The authors of this paper share a common background from the Northern Norway region, a rural county and the largest and least populated county of Norway. The region is characterised by high out-migration, lower educational levels, and higher drop-out rates from secondary education than in other regions of Norway. Limited educational provision makes it necessary for many young people in rural areas ...

<p>The offshore deep-sea stratigraphy provides the archive for reconstructing the paleoenvironment of the surrounding land and continental shelf areas. Mapping of seismic reflections as well as borehole correlation may identify the processes and timing of basin infilling. Regional and local tectonic events will be linked to other controlling factors in defining the structural configuration in order ...

Background The recognition that people are social beings is fundamental for person-centered care. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the lives of older people were restricted in ways that dramatically reduced their opportunities for face-to-face contact. Limited contact with family members due to social distancing raised concerns about the well-being of older people. In Norway, interactive technologies ...

In Norway, it is mandatory for all spouses and co-habiting partners with children under the age of 16 to attend a mediation session in the case of relationship breakdown. Traditionally, this has been an arena for parents only. In the recent years children’s participation rate has increased. This project aims to understand the contributions from participating children as well as identify possible ...

The geological evolution of the northern Barents Shelf is complex, and the area has undergone several phases of tectonic activity leading to a mosaic of several deep and shallow basins, platforms, salt-cored domes and structural highs. The area is highly gas prone with some very few commercial oil discoveries, and only two fields currently in production. Deep burial and subsequent Late Cretaceous–Cenozoic ...

Evidence Based Practice: Accessing and Assessing Evidence: Course Development Proposal at Implementation Phase Mbachi Ruth Msomphora UiT - The Arctic University of Norway, Tromsø, Norway. Email: mbachi.msomphora@uit.no Based on the questions we get from our students and researchers at the University in Tromsø (UiT), I (on behalf of the University Library) recognised the need for introducing a ...

Introduction - We hypothesized that nifedipine and sildenafil would have no detrimental effects on placental hemodynamics and gas exchange under fetal hypoxemia.<p> <p>Methods - In 33 chronically instrumented fetal sheep, placental volume blood flow (QPlac) and umbilical artery (UA) vascular impedance were measured by Doppler ultrasonography. Fetal carotid artery blood pressure and blood gas ...

The fluids have been around us for as far as we know and it enabled us to cross the oceans, ride the winds, shortens the distances, and much more. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) has extended our understanding of fluids. Until today, the analytical solution of fundamental equations of fluid mechanics is a million-dollar award (referred to Clay Mathematics Institute). As engineers, let's leave ...
