It is well known that Norwegian children code-switch from their native dialect to something resembling Central or Standard East Norwegian in their in-character role utterances during role play. Despite this, the structural aspects of the phenomenon are not exhaustively studied and understood, and the function of this role-play register as a tool for communication in role play deserves further ...

In order to deliver on the emission cuts in the Paris Agreement, additional renewable energy production is required to cover the rising energy demand. This thesis assesses the wind resources, energy production potential and the economic sustainability of a new potential wind farm, located at Senja island in northern Norway. The aim of this thesis is to decide if a new wind farm at Senja is an ...

Hydrogen production by electrolysis using renewable energy sources is essential for hydrogen to be able to contribute to the green energy transition. Producing the hydrogen on the site of use minimizes the transportation costs and footprint, and utilization of all by-products increases the electric efficiency of hydrogen production. During hydrogen production by electrolysis the chief part of energy ...

The partly ionized ionosphere responds differently to high power, high frequency radio waves based on the wave frequency, the wave power, the wave polarization, and the propagation angle relative to the magnetic field. Ionospheric modification experiments are conducted to investigate the responses and their dependencies, setting experimental constraints on the contributions from non-resonant collisional ...

The study of the ionosphere has been of central interest since its discovery in the early 20th century. In later decades there has been an increasing appreciation and need for understanding the spatial and temporal structure of the ionosphere and how the structure is affected by various processes in the atmosphere. An important process in this context is that of atmospheric gravity waves ...

This thesis discusses mobility, identity, and security (MIS), risk to life, emancipatory everyday peace in the context of biopolitics and human agency of North Korean border crossers. It begins with providing a new concept of human agency comprised of ability and answerability laid on the ground of the ethics of coexistence. Next, the thesis provides prevalent definitions of three identity groups ...

Threatened wildlife is being poached at an alarming rate to feed the global illicit wildlife trafficking (IWT). Poachers and armed non-state actors – including rebel forces such as the Lord's Resistance Army – are targeting elephants and rhinos across Africa in order to meet growing global demand. This thesis places a particular emphasis on the worldwide security implications of the IWT in a time ...

Due to Iceland’s position in the middle of the North Atlantic, the island is highly sensitive to oceanic and atmospheric fluctuations, which lead to changes in the environment. These fluctuating environmental conditions in addition to Iceland’s high volcanic activity make it a strategic study area for paleoenvironmental and tephra studies. Lake sediments contain information about such past climate ...

Tromsø by har stort behov for å kunne tiltrekke seg høykvalifisert arbeidskraft. Denne oppgaven har som formål å undersøke hvilket beslutningsgrunnlag høykvalifiserte arbeidsinnvandrere hadde da de bestemte seg for å flytte til Tromsø fra utlandet på grunn av et jobbtilbud. Hvilke faktorer spilte inn da beslutningen ble tatt og hvilken type informasjon har arbeidsinnvandrerne oppsøkte for å opplyse ...

I denne avhandlingen har vi gjennomført en verdsettelse av Mowi ASA (Mowi). Hensikten har vært å estimere aksjeverdien til Mowi 31.12.21, samt utarbeide en kjøps-, hold- eller salgsanbefaling. Tilnærmingen som nyttes er fundamental verdsettelse og herunder totalkapitalmetoden. Til slutt presenteres en handlingsstrategi basert på estimert verdi og aksjekursen til Mowi på Oslo Børs. Mowi er ...
