Når tillit forvitrer. En studie om oppløsning av interkommunalt samarbeid
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2019-08-30)I forbindelse med kommunereformen har flere kommuner valgt å så seg sammen. En konsekvens av reformen er at tilsynelatende velfungerende interkommunale samarbeid mellom parter i og utenfor sammenslåingsprosesser blir oppløst. Dette er tilfellet for de aller fleste samarbeidene mellom Evenes og Tjeldsund kommune, som ble oppløst i etterkant av sammenslåingsvedtak mellom kommunene Skånland og Tjeldsund. ... -
Hvordan påvirker egenskaper ved fagfelt ledelse av kunnskapsarbeidere?
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2019-09-02)Sammendrag Kunnskapsarbeid er et tema som har fasinert og interessert meg i mange år. Tema for oppgaven er ledelse av kunnskapsarbeidere, med problemstillingen: Hvordan påvirker egenskaper ved fagfelt ledelse av kunnskapsarbeidere? For å forsøke å finne svar på problemstillinga har jeg også laget noen forskningsspørsmål: 1. Hvordan opplever lederen kunnskapsarbeidernes behov for ledelse i ... -
Measurement of inner wall limiter SOL widths in KSTAR tokamak
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-12-27)Scrape-off layer (SOL) widths <i>λ<sub>q</sub></i> are presented from the KSTAR tokamak using fast reciprocating Langmuir probe assembly (FRLPA) measurements at the outboard mid-plane (OMP) and the infra-Red (IR) thermography at inboard limiter tiles in moderately elongated (<i>κ</i> = 1.45 – 1.55) L-mode inner wall-limited (IWL) plasmas under experimental conditions such as B<sub>T</sub> = 2.0 T, ... -
SOL width and intermittent fluctuations in KSTAR
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-12-27)Radial profiles of the ion saturation current and its fluctuation statistics are presented from probe measurements in L-mode, neutral beam heated plasmas at the outboard mid-plane region of KSTAR. The results are consistent with the familiar two-layer structure, seen elsewhere in tokamak L-mode discharges, with a steep near-SOL profile and a broad far-SOL profile. The profile scale length in the ... -
Abnormal phasic activity in saliency network, motor areas, and basal ganglia in Parkinson's disease during rhythm perception
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-10-29)Behavioral studies indicate that persons with Parkinson's disease have complexity dependent problems with the discrimination of auditory rhythms. Furthermore, neuroimaging studies show that rhythm processing activates many brain areas that overlap with areas affected by Parkinson's disease (PD). This study sought to investigate the neural correlates of rhythm processing in PD and healthy controls, ... -
Spatio-temporal patterns of PAHs, PCBs and HCB in sediments of the western Barents Sea
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2011-11-25)We examine the composition and levels of organic contaminants (PAHs, PCB, HCB) in four sediment cores collected from the Barents Sea. We assess the influence of temporal variations in contaminant supplies and post-depositional reworking on contaminant distribution. Anthropogenic levels of ∑ 12PAH reached 95 ng g<sup>−1</sup>, higher inventories dominated by BKF were observed at southern stations, ... -
Surface mass balance and stable oxygen isotope ratios from shallow firn cores on Fimbulisen, East Antarctica
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2012)The mass balance of Antarctica is one of the crucial factors for determining sea-level change in a warming climate. The marginal zones of the continent, namely the ice shelves, are most sensitive to climate change. During the 2009/10 austral summer an extensive glaciological field campaign was carried out on Fimbulisen, an ice shelf in East Antarctica, to investigate its recent surface mass balance. ... -
Increased occurrence of the jellyfish Periphylla periphylla in the European high Arctic
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-06-25)The jellyfish <i>Periphylla periphylla</i>, which can have strong ecological impacts on its environment, is ubiquitous in the Norwegian Sea and its range was predicted to extend northwards. The occurrence of <i>P. periphylla</i> in the northern Barents Sea increased since 2014 and, for the first time, several individuals were collected within a high Arctic fjord (> 78°N) in western Spitsbergen in ... -
The quantitative level of T315I mutated BCR-ABL predicts for major molecular response to second-line nilotinib or dasatinib treatment in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013-05)The BCR-ABL T315I mutation causes resistance to imatinib, nilotinib and dasatinib in chronic myeloid leukemia. Forty BCR-ABL positive patients with imatinib resistance were analyzed for T315I mutated clones after six months on nilotinib or dasatinib treatment by quantitative allele-specific ligation polymerase chain reaction with a sensitivity of 0.05%. Ligation polymerase chain reaction revealed ... -
Airmanship - A qualitative approach
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2014-10)The purpose of this study was to investigate how pilots themselves characterize a good pilot and airmanship, and how safety is created by the practice of knowledge. The purpose of this study was to get the insiders’ understanding of the concept of airmanship. Results indicate that the formulation of the concept of airmanship is complex, and it is first and foremost comprised of the knowledge about ... -
Aspect angle sensitivity of pump-induced optical emissions at EISCAT
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2014-12-04)We investigate the aspect angle sensitivity of the pump-induced artificial optical emissions in the ionosphere over the European Incoherent Scatter Scientific Association (EISCAT) high-frequency transmitter facility at Ramfjord, Norway, as a function of the pump beam launch angle relative to the magnetic field line direction. The highest intensity optical emissions occur when the pump beam pointing ... -
One-Year Analysis of Dust Impact-Like Events Onto the MMS Spacecraft
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-10-16)We present an analysis of 1‐year data of dust impacts observed on two of the Earth‐orbiting Magnetospheric Multiscale mission (MMS) spacecraft. The dust impact signals were identified in observations of the electric field probes and were registered simultaneously by monopole and dipole configurations of the instrument. This unique setup allows us to reliably identify changes in the spacecraft potential ... -

Learning from experience
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-01-14)The purpose of this study was to explore how pilots potentially learn from their and others‘ experience through post-flight debriefing. Through a case study of pilots who fly air ambulances, this article attempts to illustrate the importance of learning from experience (Bion 1962) among pilots in aviation. -
Links between transactional sex and HIV/STI-risk and substance use among a large sample of European men who have sex with men
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-08-05)<i>Background</i> - In Europe, the highest proportion of HIV diagnoses are in gay men and other men who have sex with men (MSM). Globally, HIV prevalence is particularly high among males who report selling sex, but rates among men who buy sex from other men are less clear. This study analyzed the association of transactional sex (TS) and HIV diagnosis, sexually transmitted infection (STI) diagnoses, ... -
Current state of knowledge on biological effects from contaminants on arctic wildlife and fish

The Reformation and the linguistic situation in Norway
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-08-05)The article gives a short account of the development of the spoken language from Old Norwegian to Modern Norwegian, the transition from Norwegian to Danish as the written language in Norway and the language of the church around the Reformation. It is argued that the changes in the spoken language were a long-term development completed, on the whole, at the time of the Reformation, that the transition ... -
Seasonal and spatial variations in biomarker baseline levels within Arctic populations of mussels (Mytilus spp.)
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-11-28)Climate change and pollution resulting from human activities in the Arctic require reliable monitoring systems in sentinel species. Mytilus spp. are used as sentinel species all around the world. The use of Mytilus spp. in environmental monitoring requires knowledge about natural variations in pollution biomarkers. Seasonal variations in baseline levels of biomarkers were studied over a year in the ...
