Artikeln utgör en idéhistorisk undersökning av Arne Garborgs intresse för spiritismen under 1890-talets första hälft. Artikeln argumenterar för att Garborg anlägger samma förhållningssätt till spiritismen som den samtida parapsykologin i det att han söker ge en naturlig förklaring till de fenomen som rapporteras från spiritistiska seanser. Garborgs uppmärksammande av spiritismen sätts vidare i ...

Background: Epidemiological data of cephalosporin-resistant Enterobacterales in Sub-Saharan Africa is still restricted,and in particular in Mozambique. The aim of this study was to detect and characterize extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) - and plasmid-mediated AmpC (pAmpC)-producing clinical strains of Escherichia coli at Maputo Central Hospital (MCH), a 1000-bed reference hospital in Maputo, ...

My research interest intends to distinguish, portray, and investigate minority Rohingya women's health situation and Bangladesh's health policy towards them after their huge departure from Myanmar to Bangladesh on 25 August 2017, from an indigenous perspective. The neighborhood reconciliation of Rohingyas in Bangladesh is certainly not a feasible choice, considering the difficulties and the frail ...

National art museums are integral to a nation’s cultural landscape, acting as both a witness to the past, and a source of inspiration going forward. Yet the boundaries of Indigenous cultural regions don’t necessarily coincide with officially recognised national borders. Northern Norway is both a part of Norway, as well as a part of Sápmi, yet Sámi representation in national Norwegian cultural ...

Increasing water temperatures from novel climate change may alter freshwater fish life history strategies, especially those of fish populations in northern latitudes. Fish species life history strategies are reflected by their environments and increasing water temperature may alter the most favorable strategies considering growth and reproductive patterns. In this study, life history traits of a ...

<i>Amblyraja hyperborea</i> is the cartilaginous fish with the widest distribution across the Arctic seas and shelves and yet, large parts of its biology remain unknown. In a changing climate where the ice cover in the polar regions is retreating and fisheries are expanding northward, studying poorly known species is more important than ever. To provide a more exhaustive understanding of this species, ...

Seen in light of the increasing interest of nature-based tourism and recreational outdoor activities in Norway the last decades (Haukeland, Grue & Veisten, 2010), spatiotemporal information on human activity in remote areas and knowledge about how this activity may affect wildlife and nature is a crucial part of a knowledge-based management (Gundersen et.al., 2011, p.14; Gundersen, Strand & Punsvik, ...

Recent evidence shows that temporal changes of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in Arctic ecosystems are not only due to emission patterns and regulations; environment-related changes in prey availability and long-range transport may also influence concentrations of these compounds in tissues of Arctic predators. Arctic foxes (Vulpes lagopus) in Svalbard, Norway, scavenge and hunt opportunistically ...

Plastic is a major component of marine litter in the world’s oceans and therefore it is critical we develop a better understanding of the fate of plastic in the marine environment, and the potential impacts on biota. Microplastics are the most abundant size class (<5 mm) of plastic found in the marine environment and have the potential to interact with smaller marine organisms at lower trophic levels. ...
