Windthrow damage detection in Nordic forests by 3D reconstruction of very high-resolution stereo optical satellite imagery
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-08-11)We tested whether windthrow damage to Nordic conifer forest stands could be reliably detected as canopy height decrease between a pre-storm LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) digital surface model (DSM) and a photogrammetric ... -
Soil texture analysis by laser diffraction and sedimentation and sieving–method and instrument comparison with a focus on Nordic and Baltic forest soils
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-06-23)Purpose: Laser diffraction (LD) for determination of particle size distribution (PSD) of the fine earth fraction appeared in the 1990s, partly substituting the Sieving and Sedimentation Method (SSM). Whereas previous ... -
Iodine intake and excretion from sheep supplemented with macroalgae (Laminaria hyperborea) by-product
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-07-27)Macroalgae, or seaweeds, have potential for use as feed ingredients and are currently unexploited despite their content of vitamins, minerals, and protein. Brown species can accumulate iodine from seawater and there are ... -
Sandy silt loam soil may hamper the inoculation effect on lucerne (Medicago sativa L.) growth
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-06-01)Despite newly approved lucerne cultivars, this has not led to increased use of this legume in high-latitude agriculture. Challenges with inoculation by Rhizobium meliloti have been identified as a bottleneck to adaptation. ... -
Extractable Compounds in a Birch Tree—Variations in Composition and Yield Potentials
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-06-20)Extractives from silver birch (Betula pendula) can play an important role in the future bioeconomy by delivering the feedstock, for instance, for antioxidative applications. It is, therefore, inevitable to gain knowledge ... -
Are fungal epizootics a sign of successful biological control of cereal aphids?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-07-26)Pandora neoaphidis is a common entomopathogenic fungus on Sitobion avenae, which is an important aphid pest on cereals in Europe. Pandora neoaphidis is known to cause epizootics (i.e. an unusually high prevalence of infected ... -
Culture adaptation for enhanced biogas production from birch wood applying stable carbon isotope analysis to monitor changes in the microbial community
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-05-06)Birch wood is a potential feedstock for biogas production in Northern Europe; however, the lignocellulosic matrix is recalcitrant preventing efficient conversion to methane. To improve digestibility, birch wood was thermally ... -
Comparative Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Novel Candidate Resistance Genes Involved in Defence against Phytophthora cactorum in Strawberry
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-06-29)Crown rot, caused by Phytophthora cactorum, is a devastating disease of strawberry. While most commercial octoploid strawberry cultivars (Fragaria × ananassa Duch) are generally susceptible, the diploid species Fragaria ... -
Climate change drives substantial decline of understorey species richness and abundance in Norway spruce forests during 32 years of vegetation monitoring
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-05-31)Questions Observations in permanent forest vegetation plots in Norway and elsewhere indicate that complex changes have taken place over the period 1988–2020. These observations are summarised in the “climate-induced ... -
Climate Potential for Apple Growing in Norway—Part 1: Zoning of Areas with Heat Conditions Favorable for Apple Growing under Observed Climate Change
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-06-07)Agricultural production is already, and obviously, affected by climate change. Adapting to climate change includes reducing future risks to ensure yield quality and quantity and considers seizing any potential opportunities ... -
Methyl jasmonate, salicylic acid, and oxalic acid affects growth, inducible defenses, and pine weevil resistance in Norway spruce
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-07-06)The large pine weevil (Hylobius abietis) is a major regeneration pest in commercial forestry. Pesticide application has historically been the preferred control method, but pesticides are now being phased out in several ... -
Yield predictions of timothy (Phleum pratense L.) in Norway under future climate scenarios
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-07-26)The perennial forage grass timothy (Phleum pratense L.) is the most important forage crop in Norway. Future changes in the climate will affect growing conditions and hence the yield output. We used data from the Norwegian ... -
Hydroponic potato production in wood fiber for food security
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-06-03)The resilience of global food security is a critical concern. Facing limited access to land and potential disruption of the food markets, alternative, scalable, and efficient production systems are needed as a complementary ... -
Effective removal of antibiotic resistance genes from wastewater using marine waste-derived novel nanocomposites
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-08-04)Wastewater (WW) has been identified as a major hotspot of microbial emerging contaminants (MECs), such as antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARB) and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). Currently used WW treatment methods ... -
Wetland Water-Level Prediction in the Context of Machine-Learning Techniques: Where Do We Stand?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-04-30)Wetlands are simply areas that are fully or partially saturated with water. Not much attention has been given to wetlands in the past, due to the unawareness of their value to the general public. However, wetlands have ... -
