(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-08-13)The Barents Sea is one of the main pathways for warm and saline Atlantic Water (AW) entering the Arctic Ocean. It is an important region where water mass transformation and dense-water production contribute to the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation. Here, we present data from three cruises and nine glider missions conducted between 2019 and 2022 in the northwestern Barents Sea, and compare ... -
Sea ice variability from the penultimate glacial to the last interglacial in the Eastern Fram Strait
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2025-01-28)The ongoing reduction of Arctic sea ice underscores the need to understand the drivers behind sea ice variability and associated ocean-climate impacts. The Last Interglacial, Marine Isotope (sub)Stage (MIS) 5e, and its transitions offer insights into sea ice variability during a period warmer than pre-industrial, and intervals of large climatic changes. This study examines a marine sediment core ... -
The Elusive Congo Craton Margin During Gondwana Breakup: Insights from Lithospheric Mantle Structure and Heat Flow beneath the Xaudum Kimberlite Province, NW Botswana
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-01-16)The continental lithospheric mantle (CLM) beneath the southern margin of the Congo craton has remained elusive, mainly because of the thick Phanerozoic sedimentary cover concealing possible kimberlite and lamproite diatremes. In this study, we explore this lithospheric mantle section using major and trace element compositions of mantle-derived clinopyroxene and garnet xenocrysts from kimberlites of ... -
Preliminary characterization and evaluation of local concrete sludges for use as supplementary cementitious materials
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2025-01-31)Concrete sludge (CS) is an emerging supplementary cementitious material (SCMs). However, the diverse range of SCMs and their various sources for each necessitate initial characterization and evaluate the potential of CS as a SCM. In this study, CS were collected from seven different concrete producers (designated as CS1 to CS7) in the Northern Norway region. This preliminary characterization aims ... -
Five millennia of mitonuclear discordance in Atlantic bluefin tuna identified using ancient DNA
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2025-02-07)Mitonuclear discordance between species is readily documented in marine fishes. Such discordance may either be the result of past natural phenomena or the result of recent introgression from previously seperated species after shifts in their spatial distributions. Using ancient DNA spanning five millennia, we here investigate the long-term presence of Pacific bluefin tuna (Thunnus orientalis) and ... -

Folkesongen frå private rom til scena: Endringar i norske folkesongpraksisar frå 1950-talet og fram til i dag
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2025-01-16)Utviklinga av folkesongen i Noreg dei siste seksti til sytti åra har vore formidabel. Mellom anna i Noreg og i Sverige er det påvist ei vokal bølge innan folkesong i tiåra før siste hundreårsskiftet (Gjertsen, 1996, s. 2; Åkesson, 2007). Ein kan omtale denne utviklinga i folkesongen som ei endring frå kvardagssong og allemannseige til nærast ein elitekultur (Espeland, 2002). Der visebølga på 1960- ... -
Epilog
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2024-06-25)I dette etterordet trekker jeg trådene sammen. Finnes det noen linjer som ordner bidragene? Fellesskap er ett gjennomgående tema. Alle kapitlene handler om fellesskap. Finnes det andre? Ifølge Niklas Luhmann (2016) benytter den sosiologiske samfunnsanalysen seg av i alt fire distinksjoner som også er mekanismer for samfunnsmessig integrasjon. De fire er funksjon, klasse, skillet mellom sentrum og ... -
