Det norske samfunnet som handlingsdyktig fellesskap - Svikt og endring etter 22. juli-terroren
(Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2017-11-27)Avhandlingen skal gi ny kunnskap om hvordan det norske samfunnet håndterte terrorangrepene i Oslo og på Utøya 22. juli 2011. Forskningsobjektet er den samfunnsmessige erkjennelsen av at ”vi sviktet som samfunn”, og den kollektive håndteringen av denne erkjennelsen. For å få til dette skal avhandlingen betrakte samfunnet med en systemteoretisk modell av samfunn som handlingsdyktig fellesskap. Modellens ... -
Regression analysis using a blending type spline construction
(Peer reviewed; Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2017-10-18)Regression analysis allows us to track the dynamics of change in measured data and to investigate their properties. A sufficiently good model allows us to predict the behavior of dependent variables with higher accuracy, and to propose a more precise data generation hypothesis. By using polynomial approximation for big data sets with complex dependencies we get piecewise smooth functions. One way ... -
An initial assessment of the possibilities of fish catch prediction using Gaussian processes
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2016-12-15)The fishing and aquaculture industry is one of the largest industries of Norway. Enhanced knowledge of the distribution of fish in the ocean is important for an economical and sustainable fishing industry. This study investigates the possibilities of using Gaussian processes for regression within fish catch prediction. A dataset that combines catch reports from the Norwegian shipping company Havfisk ... -
Internkommunikasjon i endringer. En studie av mellomlederes perspektiv på internkommunikasjon i endringer, i Nord-Norges største grossistselskap
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-05-31)Oppgavens fokus er internkommunikasjon i endringer, da det kan oppstå et gap mellom hvor en organisasjon er, og hvor de ønsker å være. Internkommunikasjon er sett som en nøkkelfaktor for å implementere en endring, da det brukes for å forklare og forberede ansatte for en endring, som vil lukke gapet mellom hvor en organisasjon er og hvor de vil. En mellomleder er en sterk ressurs for å hjelpe ... -

The impact of stakeholder relations on the sustainability of tourism development. An Indonesian case study
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-10-31)Following the publication of the Brundtland Commission’s Our Common Future Report, the concept of sustainable tourism development became highly influential internationally. Yet, despite the concept being frequently discussed, what exactly it embodies has not been conclusively defined. What is generally agreed upon is, that in order for tourism to fulfill its positive potential, it must be meticulously ... -
A Lighthouse in the North. Pikene på Broen and the role of contemporary art in tourism development in Kirkenes
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-10-31)Up until today, the arctic tourism industry has prioritized the development of nature-based activities. Cultural tourism has been promoted as well, but only little attention has been paid to the development of contemporary art attractions. In April 2017, a case study centered around the company Pikene på Broen was conducted in Kirkenes. It was based on a qualitative methodological approach. This ... -
Festival volunteer management. Welcoming locals and non-locals. An autoethnographic study
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-10-31)The research at hand is a qualitative autoethnographic multi-sited research on festival volunteer management and namely – the way festival volunteer management relies on local and non-local volunteers. Research was conducted on the basis of two festivals in northern Norway – TIFF (Tromsø) and “Barents Spektakel” (Kirkenes). In order to answer research question, “How does the volunteer management ... -
Seasonal and spatial dynamics of meroplankton in a sub-Arctic fjord With additional focus on larvae of the invasive red king crab
(Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2017-12-07)Many benthic marine organisms produce pelagic larvae, meroplankton, which spend from hours to months in the pelagic. During this time, they form an important part of the pelagic community. Few studies have focused on the year round dynamics of meroplankton, thus many aspects of meroplankton dynamics remains unknown at high-latitudes. In the 1960s the red king crab was intentionally introduced into ... -
Trophic niche similarity among sea trout Salmo trutta in Central Norway investigated using different time-integrated trophic tracers
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-11-21)From 2011 to 2013, anadromous brown trout Salmo trutta (213−730 mm, total body length, LT) were collected during or shortly after their marine feeding migration at 7 different localities in central Norway. The mean volume of stomach content (%) of marine fish prey eaten by S. trutta captured in marine waters varied from 34 to 89%. There was a high prevalence (67−100%) for parasite groups potentially ... -
A systematic review of sex differences in the placebo and the nocebo effect
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-07-31)Objectives: The present review investigated whether there are systematic sex differences in the placebo and the nocebo effect. <br>Methods: A literature search was conducted in multiple electronic databases. Studies were included if the study compared a group or condition where a placebo was administered to a natural history group or similar cohort. <br>Results: Eighteen studies were identified ... -
Spatial patterns of spring meroplankton along environmental gradients in a sub-Arctic fjord
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-11-02)The spatial patterns in abundance and composition of benthic invertebrate larvae (meroplankton), the correlation between these patterns and environmental variables (temperature, salinity and chl a) and the relative abundance of meroplankton in the mesozooplankton community were investigated in the sub-Arctic Porsangerfjord, Norway (70° N). Zooplankton samples and CTD-profiles were collected at ... -
Spatial variability of CO2 uptake in polygonal tundra: Assessing low-frequency disturbances in eddy covariance flux estimates
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-06-29)The large spatial variability in Arctic tundra complicates the representative assessment of CO<sub>2</sub> budgets. Accurate measurements of these heterogeneous landscapes are, however, essential to understanding their vulnerability to climate change. We surveyed a polygonal tundra lowland on Svalbard with an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) that mapped ice-wedge morphology to complement eddy ...
