Hvorfor jobber ikke flere utviklingshemmede i arbeidsmarkedstiltaket "Varig tilrettelagt arbeid" (VTAO)?
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021)Personer med utviklingshemming er i hovedsak ekskludert fra det ordinære arbeidslivet. I 2006 ble arbeidsmarkedstiltaket Varig tilrettelagt arbeid i ordinær virksomhet (VTAO) innført for å øke arbeidsdeltakelsen for denne gruppen. Innføringen av VTAO-tiltaket kan ses som en «Top-down»-innovasjon som i dag i liten utstrekning tilbys utviklingshemmede. Med utgangspunkt i intervju med Nav-veiledere ... -
Potensial for reduksjon av livssyklus klimagassutslipp ved gjenbruk og resirkulering av betong
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2021-05-15)Verden står ovenfor store klimaendringer og klimagassmengden fortsetter å øke. For å begrense økning av gjennomsnittstemperaturen må tiltak iverksettes for å redusere utslippene. Betong er det mest anvendte byggematerialet i verden og det brukes dobbelt så mye betong enn andre byggematerialer til sammen. Sementproduksjon antas å bidra til 7-8 prosent av klimagassutslipp på verdensbasis. Betong ... -

(Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2021-10-31)Oppgaven undersøker, hvordan Jürgen Moltmanns og Catherine Mowry LaCugnas treenighetslære forholder seg til Karl Rahners tese «Den immanente triniteten er den økonomiske triniteten og omvendt.» Tesen har i det 20. århundre fått mye oppmerksomhet og kan anses som toneangivende for en «renessanse» av treenighetslæren. Rahner har med dette slått fast at Gud, slik vi møter ham i frelseshistorien er den ... -

«Jeg har lyst til å være tynn» - En kvalitativ studie om erfaringer etter fedmekirurgi
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2021-10-25)Bakgrunn: Sykelig overvekt anses å være en alvorlig langvarig sykdom som representerer risiko for ulike somatiske og psykiske tilleggslidelser. Kirurgi som behandlingsmetode er omdiskutert og kritisert i flere studier, som viser til at overvekt er et sammensatt problem som omfatter mer enn selve overvekten. Tilbudet av fedmekirurgi er svært tilgjengelig og økende, men pasienters egne erfaringer med ... -

The mediating impact of lifestyle factors in the relationship between socioeconomic status and self-reported health in a Norwegian cohort of women
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2020-12-01)Introduction: Information on self-reported health (SRH) with a simple question on “How do you rate your health?” provides sufficient information to be a reasonable proxy of health. Socioeconomic inequalities in health are often monitored via SRH. Individuals with better socioeconomic status (SES) more likely to rate their SRH as good.

Ocean Alkalinization: The Rights and Obligations under International Law
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2021-09-01)This thesis is to analyse how ocean alkalinization is regulated in international law. From a legal perspective, there are some uncertainties related to ocean alkalinization activities, as there are no regulations specifically applicable to this technology. That does not mean that it is unregulated, as it falls under international law, such as climate law, environmental law and the law of the sea. ... -
Technical and Legal Implications for Dynamic Legalities: How Can the BBNJ Treaty Accommodate Dynamic Management Decision-Making for Arctic MPAs?

Climate change is resulting in declining sea-ice extent and thickness, ecosystem restructuring, and new opportunities for human activities. Marine protected areas (MPAs) for the Arctic high seas will need to be adaptive and flexible to respond to the complex and dynamic system. Dynamic Ocean Management (DOM), a novel approach where management ... -

The Harstad injury prevention study : hospital-based injury recording and community-based intervention
(Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 1995)Accidental injury is the leading cause of death in Norway under the age of 50. A 19 % reduction of age standardized accident mortality was observed from 1956 to 1983. In spite of this, next to Finland, Norway has the highest accident mortality rate among the Nordic countries (1) . To reduce accidental injury it is important to gain knowledge about all injuries, not only the fatal ones. The ... -
Feeding at the front line: Interannual variation in the use of glacier fronts by foraging black-legged kittiwakes
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-10-28)Tidewater glacier fronts can represent important foraging areas for Arctic predators. Their ecological importance is likely to change in a warmer Arctic. Their profitability and use by consumers are expected to vary in time, but the underlying mechanisms driving such variation remain poorly known. The subglacial plume, originating from meltwater discharge, is responsible for the entrainment and ... -
The Art of Radio Documentary
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-06)For many years, I have been a devoted fan of radio documentaries. Back in the 1980s and 1990s I used to record some of the documentaries on my old Phillips cassette recorder. When digital technology replaced such tapes, I put them in a drawer. To make a radio documentary, you only need a good voice recorder and a talent to connect with people. Listening to a good radio documentary, you get the ...
