Assessment of possible adverse consequences for biodiversity when planting vascular plants outside their natural range in Norway -(VKM)
(Research report; Forskningsrapport, 2021-06-25)We sow or plant vascular plant species on a large scale in revegetation and restoration projects in Norway today. Some of the species used are already found in Norway, but many of the species, subspecies or populations used though native are not local, that is, they are <i>regionally alien</i>. A regionally alien species is a species that is native to Norway (has been in Norway since 1800) somewhere ... -
Assessment of risk and risk-reducing measures related to the introduction and dispersal of the invasive alien carpet tunicate Didemnum vexillum in Norway
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-02-17)Didemnum vexillum is colonial sea squirt, a marine species which originates from the northwest Pacific; it was first recorded in Norway in November 2020. Didemnum vexillum is an alien species, meaning that it is a species that has been transferred from its original region to other regions of the world through human activity, and it had not previously been recorded in Norwegian waters. The species ... -

Protocol and description of literature searches for the risk-benefit assessment of fish in the Norwegian diet. The Steering Committee of the Norwegian Scientific Committee for Food and Environment
(Research report; Forskningsrapport, 2020)Fish contains nutrients that are positive for our health. At the same time, it contains varying levels of undesirable substances that can have a negative effect on health. Undesirable substances can be found in different levels in most types of food. In a risk-benefit assessment, both the nutrients and the undesirable substances are assessed and it is evaluated whether it in total gives a more ... -
