Measuring Methane in the Arctic Ocean - From legal framework to time series analysis via technology innovation
(Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2022-03-24)<p>Understanding how the earth system interacts with ongoing climate change is important to find a realistic route towards a sustainable future. The impact of Arctic seabed methane seepage on contemporary and future climate is still poorly constrained, described, and quantified. An important limiting factor in our understanding of seabed seepage in the Arctic is a lack of in situ measurements; ... -
Bioactivity of a Marine Diatom (Porosira glacialis [Grunow] Jorgensen 1905) Cultivated With and Without Factory Smoke CO2
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-02-16)Using industrial emissions as a strategy for CO<sub>2</sub> sequestration through carbon capture and utilization (CCU) in cultivation of microalgae can potentially change cultivation factors such as pH, nutrient availability and presence of trace metals, which could alter the growth and metabolism of the microalgae. It is therefore important to investigate whether such changes in culturing conditions ... -

Cascading effects of moth outbreaks on subarctic soil food webs
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-07-23)The increasing severity and frequency of natural disturbances requires a better understanding of their effects on all compartments of biodiversity. In Northern Fennoscandia, recent large-scale moth outbreaks have led to an abrupt change in plant communities from birch forests dominated by dwarf shrubs to grass-dominated systems. However, the indirect effects on the belowground compartment remained ... -
Kjønna språk og språkbruk før og no
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-12-12)Denne artikkelen, som har utgangspunkt i eit plenumsforedrag med same tittel, halde på SONE-konferansen i 2019, er eit oversyn over språk og kjønn-forskinga i Norge, slik denne forskinga spring ut av feminismen og den generelle sosiolingvistikken. Langt på veg speglar den norske forskinga den internasjonale, særleg den angloamerikanske. Såleis har det vore naudsynt å referere til og å gjere greie ... -

Accounting for food web dynamics when assessing the impact of mesopredator control on declining prey populations
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-01-06)<p>1. Increasing populations of mesopredators are suspected to cause declines in vulnerable wildlife to the extent that mesopredator decimation actions (culling) have become commonplace. Design constraints, especially a lack of spatial replication, often hamper the assessment of the impact of such actions. However, extensive temporal replication (i.e. time series) and accounting for potentially ... -
