World Government, Social Contract and Legitimacy
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-05-22)The notion of world government is anathema to most political theorists. This is the case due to the arguments that a world government is infeasible, undesirable and unnecessary. This threefold argument is partly predicated on the assumption that in world politics the larger a geographical and political entity is, the greater the chance of it becoming unstable, ungovernable and, ultimately, illegitimate. ... -
Writing data citation guidelines for linguistics: Lessons learned
(Conference object; Konferansebidrag, 2019-10)One of the main objectives of the Linguistics Data Interest Group is to develop and adopt common principles and guidelines for data citation and attribution. As a first step, the Austin Principles of Data Citation in Linguistics were published in 2018. Since then, the group has been working on developing data citation guidelines, whose target audiences are academic publishers, resource providers, ... -
Y-veien til bachelor i ingeniørfag - muligheter, dilemma og utfordringer : fra evaluering av prosjektet Y-veinord

Yhđessä – Sammen om kvenske virkeligheter: Situering og akademisk ansvarlighet i forskningsprosessen
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-12-17)This article discusses methodological aspects of an ongoing research project on Kven worldings. The work is inspired by Donna Haraway’s perspectives on situated research. A metalogue, where the authors share reflections and discuss their maneuvers as researchers, makes visible some of the ontological and epistemological troubles the researchers are facing related to the philosophical research approach, ... -
YKL-40 (Chitinase-3-Like Protein 1) Serum Levels in Aortic Stenosis
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-09-23)<p><i>Background:</i> Identification of novel biomarkers could provide prognostic information and improve risk stratification in patients with aortic stenosis (AS). YKL-40 (chitinase-3-like protein 1), a protein involved in atherogenesis, is upregulated in human calcific aortic valves. We hypothesized that circulating YKL-40 would be elevated and associated with the degree of AS severity and outcome ... -

Your place or mine? Exploring birdwatching tourists’ behaviour disturbing birds in a nature reserve
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-04-11)To manage for more sustainable wildlife viewing tourism, a better understanding of tourists’ behaviour that might disturb and negatively affect wildlife such as birds is needed. We conducted a qualitative case study of visitors to Hornøya, a protected bird cliff in Northern Norway. Behaviours with the potential to disturb seabirds at the site were explored using the theory of planned behaviour ... -
Zonal Wave Number Diagnosis of Rossby Wave-Like Oscillations Using Paired Ground-Based Radars
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-05-03)Free traveling Rossby wave normal modes (RNMs) are often investigated through large-scale space-time spectral analyses, which therefore is subject to observational availability, especially in the mesosphere. Ground-based mesospheric observations were broadly used to identify RNMs mostly according to the periods of RNMs without resolving their horizontal scales. The current study diagnoses zonal ... -
Zonal wavenumber diagnosis of Rossby-wave-like oscillations using paired ground-based radars

Ground‐based mesospheric observations were broadly used to identify RNMs mostly according to the periods of RNMs without resolving their horizontal scales.

Zooplankton assemblages along the North American Arctic: Ecological connectivity shaped by ocean circulation and bathymetry from the Chukchi Sea to Labrador Sea
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-11-09)We defined mesozooplankton biogeography in the North American Arctic to elucidate drivers of biodiversity, community structure, and biomass of this key component of the Arctic marine ecosystem. A multivariate analysis identified four mesozooplankton assemblages: Arctic-oceanic, Arctic-shelf, Coastal-Hudson, and Labrador Sea. Bathymetry was a major driver of the distribution of these assemblages. ... -
Zooplankton in Svalbard fjords on the Atlantic–Arctic boundary
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-07-01)Zooplankton abundance and community structures were studied in three west Spitsbergen fjords at the beginning of the warm phase, which seem to have entered in 2006. Sampling was conducted in summer 2007 at stations distributed along transects in Hornsund, Isfjorden and Kongsfjorden. Variations in zooplankton standing stocks and community structures (assessing taxonomic diversity and zoogeographical ... -
Økosystemforvaltning - Hvorfor økonomisk analyse er viktig
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019)<p>I et økosystem vil noen arter være byttedyr, andre predatorer og mange begge deler, skiftende gjennom sitt livsløp. Så også i de marine økosystem der norske fiskere årlig fisker mellom 2 og 3 millioner tonn, noe som gjør at Norge er blant de 10 største fiskerinasjoner i verden. De fleste fiskebestander av stor kommersiell verdi har en utbredelse som innebærer at årlige totalkvoter fastsettes og ... -

The β3 Adrenergic Receptor Antagonist L-748,337 Attenuates Dobutamine-Induced Cardiac Inefficiency While Preserving Inotropy in Anesthetized Pigs
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-09-23)Excessive myocardial oxygen consumption (MVO<sub>2</sub>) is considered a limitation for catecholamines, termed oxygen cost of contractility. We hypothesize that increased MVO<sub>2</sub> induced by dobutamine is not directly related to contractility but linked to intermediary myocardial metabolism. Furthermore, we hypothesize that selective b<sub>3</sub> adrenergic receptor (b<sub>3</sub>AR) ...
