Denne studien handler om implementering av kunstig intelligens (KI) i helsesektoren. Nærmere bestemt handler studien om hvordan Helse Nord og Universitetssykehuset i Nord Norge (UNN) legger til rette for og forbereder organisasjonen for implementering av KI-teknologi som del av beslutningsstøtten i den kliniske praksisen. Å klargjøre organisasjonen før en endring skjer, blir av flere fremhevet som ...

In order to obtain gear-based management instruments of shrimp trawl fishery for southern velvet shrimp in the South China Sea (SCS), the size selectivity and catch efficiency of four codends were tested and compared. These codends included two mesh sizes, 30 and 35 mm, and two mesh shapes, T0 (diamond-mesh) and T90 (diamond-mesh turned by 90°), respectively. Our results demonstrated that increasing ...

This paper takes as a starting point the competence needs of managers responsible for the complex crisis response operations in a High Arctic setting. We elaborate on the need for competence on multi-organizational cooperation and coordination at tactical and operational management levels in maritime mass rescue operations (MRO). We look into the special context of High Arctic environments with ...

This paper proposes the concept of a field programmable and configurable power electronic converter together with a new synthesis method. By considering the converter as a pack of resources, the converter topology and configuration of inputs and outputs can be programmed in the field through, utilising the available device resources.

Many areas in the Arctic are vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. We observe large-scale effects on physical, biological, economic and social parameters, including ice cover, species distributions, economic activity and regional governance frameworks. Arctic living marine resources are affected in various ways. A holistic understanding of these effects requires a multidisciplinary enterprise. ...

Aims and objectives: This thesis investigates cross-linguistic influence (CLI) in child third language (L3) acquisition. The main objectives are to find the source of CLI, whether it is L1, L2, or both, and to find out whether CLI occurs on a property-by-property basis or as a wholesale phenomenon. Methodology: Persian-Norwegian heritage bilinguals acquiring L3 English are compared to L2 English ...

En vurdering av den rettslige og faktiske rettssikkerheten til den samiske befolkning i Norge, i lys av retten til samisk språk, kultur og samfunn.

Individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) undergo an aggressive treatment with cholesterollowering drugs to prevent coronary heart disease. Recent evidence suggests an interplay between the gut microbiota, blood lipid levels and lipid-lowering drugs, but this has yet to be studied in individuals with FH. The objective of the study was to characterize the gut microbiota of individuals ...

The size of the last glacial ice sheet on the Northeast (NE) Greenland shelf and its interaction with ocean circulation have been the subject of debate. Here we provide insights into the extent of the ice sheet around the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) and investigate timing and strength of changes in the flow of Atlantic Water. The study is based on a multiproxy investigation of a marine sediment core, ...

The Arctic Ocean north of Svalbard has recently experienced large sea ice losses and the increasing prominence of Atlantic water (AW) advection. To investigate the impact of these ongoing changes on annual particle export, two moorings with sequential sediment traps were deployed in ice-free and seasonally ice-covered waters on the shelf north (NSv) and east (ESv) of Svalbard, collecting sinking ...
