    • Younger Dryas ice margin retreat triggered by ocean surface warming in central-eastern Baffin Bay 

      Oksman, Mimmi; Weckström, Kaarina; Miettinen, Arto; Juggins, Stephen; Divine, Dmitry V; Jackson, Rebecca; Telford, Richard; Korsgaard, Niels J.; Kučera, Michal (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-10-18)
      The transition from the last ice age to the present-day interglacial was interrupted by the Younger Dryas (YD) cold period. While many studies exist on this climate event, only few include high-resolution marine records that span the YD. In order to better understand the interactions between ocean, atmosphere and ice sheet stability during the YD, more high-resolution proxy records from the Arctic, ...

    • Methane- and dissolved organic carbon-fueled microbial loop supports a tropical subterranean estuary ecosystem 

      Brankovits, D.; Pohlman, J.W.; Niemann, Helge; Leigh, M.B.; Leewis, M.C.; Becker, K.W.; Iliffe, F.A.; Lehmann, M.F.; Phillips, B. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-11-28)
      Subterranean estuaries extend inland into density-stratified coastal carbonate aquifers containing a surprising diversity of endemic animals (mostly crustaceans) within a highly oligotrophic habitat. How complex ecosystems (termed anchialine) thrive in this globally distributed, cryptic environment is poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that a microbial loop shuttles methane and dissolved organic ...

(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-12-27)
      Insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I has cancer promoting activities. However, the hypothesis that circulating IGF-I concentration is related to risk of lymphoma overall or its subtypes has not been examined prospectively. IGF-I concentration was measured in pre-diagnostic plasma samples from a nested case–control study of 1,072 cases of lymphoid malignancies and 1,072 individually matched controls ...

      The aim of this study was to reduce barriers that prevent implementation of evidence-based recommendations about single-fraction palliative radiotherapy (PRT) and to demonstrate that single-fraction PRT yields similar outcomes as long-course treatment (≥10 fractions) in patients with bone metastases from breast cancer. This retrospective study (2007–2014) included 118 Norwegian female patients. All ...

    • The Argentinian mother-and-child contaminant study: a cross-sectional study among delivering women in the cities of Ushuaia and Salta 

      Økland, Inger; Odland, Jon Øyvind; Matiocevich, Silvinia; Alvarez, Marisa Viviana; Aarsland, Torbjørn; Nieboer, Evert; Hansen, Solrunn (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-08-28)
      Several ongoing international multidisciplinary projects have examined linkages between environmental chemicals and health. In contrast to Arctic regions, information for the Southern Hemisphere is scarce. Because of the inherent practice of pesticide utilisation and mismanagement, food security is potentially threatened. The most vulnerable period in human life occurs during pregnancy and early ...

    • Lærernes vurderingspraksis i matematikkfaget. En kvalitativ studie fra Nord-Troms av matematikklæreres oppfatninger av vurdering i faget 

      Kristiansen, Silje (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-11-01)
      Denne mastergradsoppgaven bygger på et konstruktivistisk verdenssyn, og er følgelig av kvalitativt preg. Jeg har gjennom åtte semistrukturerte intervjuer med matematikklærere på ungdomstrinnet ønsket å finne ut av: "Hva er matematikklærernes oppfatninger av vurdering i faget?". Et underliggende begrepsapparat utgjorde teorigrunnlaget mitt. Teorigrunnlaget og innsamlet data ble gjenstand for en ...

    • Lærerstudenters affekt av utforskende matematikk. En kvalitativ studie av lærerstudenters affekt av utforskende matematikk, før og etter å ha gjennomført utforskende matematikk i praksis 

      Bergvik, Rolf; Erichsen, Øyvind (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-11-01)
      Bakgrunn for denne studien var vår deltagelse på forskningsprosjekt ved Universitetet i Tromsø for styrking av matematikkpraksis for lærerstudenter. Vi har også selv en sterk personlig interesse for utforskende matematikk. I denne studien undersøkte vi et utvalg lærerstudenters affekt av matematikk og studerte om det var noen relasjon til utforskende matematikk. Vi ønsket å se hvilken affekt av ...

      Denne masteroppgaven har problemstillingen: På hvilken måte er det sammenheng mellom læreres oppfatninger av undersøkende matematikkundervisning i lærerutdanningen og hvordan de bruker undersøkende matematikkundervisning i sin matematikkundervisning? Jeg har avgrenset problemstillingen min til å gjelde lærere som er utdannet i løpet av de to første kullene i den nye lærerutdanningen ved UiT og som ...

    • Naturgeografi i samfunnsfag. På hvilken måte forholder et utvalg lærere i mellomtrinnet og ungdomskolen seg til naturgeografi som en del av samfunnsfaget? 

      Christensen, Anders Bergheim (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-11-01)
      Denne undersøkelsen tar for seg forskningsspørsmålene: «På hvilken måte forholder et utvalg lærere i mellomtrinnet og ungdomskolen seg til naturgeografi som en del av samfunnsfaget?» og «Blir naturgeografien bortprioritert i samfunnsfaget av lærerutdanningen, lærerne eller skolemyndighetene?». Bakgrunnen for undersøkelsen er at jeg selv ikke opplevde naturgeografiens tilstedeværelse i samfunnsfaget. ...

      Frostbite sequelae are a relevant occupational injury outcome for soldiers in arctic environments. A Caucasian male soldier suffered frostbite to both hands during a military winter exercise. He developed sensory-motor disturbances and cold hypersensitivity. Angiography and thermography revealed impaired blood flow while Quantitative Sensory Testing indicated impaired somato-sensory nerve function. ...

    • Seafood from a changing Arctic 

      Troell, Max; Eide, Arne; Isaksen, John Roald; Hermansen, Øystein; Crépin, Anne-Sophie (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-10-27)
      We review current knowledge about climate change impacts on Arctic seafood production. Large-scale changes in the Arctic marine food web can be expected for the next 40–100 years. Possible future trajectories under climate change for Arctic capture fisheries anticipate the movement of aquatic species into new waters and changed the dynamics of existing species. Negative consequences are ...

    • Long-term environmental monitoring for assessment of change: measurement inconsistencies over time and potential solutions 

      Ellingsen, Kari Elsa; Yoccoz, Nigel Gilles; Tveraa, Torkild; Hewitt, Judi E.; Thrush, Simon F. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-10-30)
      The importance of long-term environmental monitoring and research for detecting and understanding changes in ecosystems and human impacts on natural systems is widely acknowledged. Over the last decades, a number of critical components for successful long-term monitoring have been identified. One basic component is quality assurance/quality control protocols to ensure consistency and comparability ...
