Devonian core complex exhumation and Cenozoic decollements as alternatives to the Ellesmerian Orogeny
(Conference object; Konferansebidrag, 2018-10)The Ellesmerian Orogeny (Piepjohn et al., 2000) is a short-lived contractional–transpressional event that occurred in the Late Devonian–Mississippian, i.e., after Devonian collapse of the Caledonides and prior to Carboniferous rifting. Thus far, this episode of contraction–transpression was required to explain the presence of undeformed Carboniferous–Permian sedimentary rocks on top of folded ... -

Impact of Timanian thrusts on the Phanerozoic tectonic history of Svalbard
(Conference object; Konferansebidrag, 2019-09-13)Despite more than a century of investigation, the relationship between basement rocks throughout the Svalbard Archipelago is still a mystery. Though these rocks display similar geochronological ages, they show significantly different metamorphic grades and structures. Thus far, Svalbard was believed to be composed of three terranes of rocks formed hundreds–thousands of kilometers apart and accreted ... -

Shotgun Environmental DNA, Pollen, and Macrofossil Analysis of Lateglacial Lake Sediments From Southern Sweden
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-06-20)The lake sediments of Hässeldala Port in south-east Sweden provide an archive of local and regional environmental conditions ~14.5–9.5 ka BP (thousand years before present) and allow testing DNA sequencing techniques to reconstruct past vegetation changes. We combined shotgun sequencing with plant micro- and macrofossil analyses to investigate sediments dating to the Allerød (14.1–12.7 ka BP), Younger ... -
Predictors fpr expired CO2 in neonatal bag-mask ventilation at birth: observational study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-09-26)<p><i>Background - </i>Expired carbon dioxide (ECO<sub>2</sub>) indicates degree of lung aeration immediately after birth. Favourable ventilation techniques may be associated with higher ECO<sub>2</sub> and a faster increase. Clinical condition will however also affect measured values. The aim of this study was to explore the relative impact of ventilation factors and clinical factors on ECO<sub>2</sub> ... -
The regulative lock-in: the challenge of establishing Sami fisheries governance in Norway
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-11-06)For almost 30 years, the Sami Parliament has worked to gain influence in the Norwegian fisheries governing system in order to secure Sami fisheries as the material basis of Sami culture. Due to developments in international law and their implementation in state law, the Sami Parliament has gained formal access to the country’s fisheries governance decision-making process. This paper addresses the ... -

The study is concerned with how the student teachers engage with, make sense ... -
Profiles of Perfectionism Among Adolescents Attending Specialized Elite- and Ordinary Lower Secondary Schools: A Norwegian Cross-Sectional Comparative Study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-09-06)The versatile construct of perfectionism has been heavily debated, e.g., its nature or measurement constituents, how it influences performances or, most importantly, our health. Conventional linear analyses seem inadequate to address such challenges. Hence, we used a latent variable and a person-centered approach to identify different patterns of perfectionism, and their relationships with psychological ... -
Diversity and Distribution of Meroplanktonic Larvae in the Pacific Arctic and Connectivity With Adult Benthic Invertebrate Communities
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-08-13)Pelagic larval stages (meroplankton) of benthic invertebrates seasonally make up a significant proportion of planktonic communities, as well as determine the distribution of their benthic adult stages, yet are frequently overlooked by both plankton and benthic studies. Within the Arctic, the role of meroplanktonic larvae may be particularly important in regions of inflow from sub-Arctic regions, ... -
Comparing the Efficacy of an Identical, Tailored Smoking Cessation Intervention Delivered by Mobile Text Messaging Versus Email: Randomized Controlled Trial
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-09-27)<p><i>Background - </i>There is a need to deliver smoking cessation support at a population level, both in developed and developing countries. Studies on internet-based and mobile phone–based smoking cessation interventions have shown that these methods can be as effective as other methods of support, and they can have a wider reach at a lower cost. <p><i>Objective - </i>This randomized controlled ... -

The results are based on data from a previous randomized controlled trial treating obesity with vitamin D<sub>3</sub>. A sample of 448 overweight ... -
Teknologi, natur og litteratur: Deiktisk diskurs hos Vetlesen og Borgmann
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-10-15)I <i>The Denial of Nature</i> (2015) argumenterer Arne Johan Vetlesen for at litteratur og poesi, av den typen den amerikanske filosofen Albert Borgmann karakteriserer som deiktisk diskurs, fremviser naturens iboende verdi. Ifølge Vetlesen tilbyr deiktisk diskurs en pre-teoretisk tilnærming til naturen som den filosofiske debatten siden kan baseres på. Artikkelen viser at selv om både Vetlesen og ... -

Cold-seep macrofaunal assemblages in cores from Vestnesa Ridge, eastern Fram Strait, during the past 45000 years
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-10-22)Four cores from 1200 m water depth from Vestnesa Ridge on the western Svalbard margin in the eastern Fram Strait were studied for their content of fossil macro-faunas. Three of the cores were collected from a pockmark with active methane seepage, and one core (control core) was taken just outside the seepage area for comparison. Together the cores cover the last 45 000 years (mid-late Weichselian ...
