20th century Betula pubescens subsp. czerepanovii tree- and forest lines in Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-11-23)The purpose of making re-mapped and georeferenced data of TFLs available was to enable the data's potential for spatiotemporal analyses of TFL dynamics. Specifically the goals were to identify the localities, georeference ... -
76-year decline and recovery of aspen mediated by contrasting fire regimes: Longunburned, infrequent and frequent mixedseverity wildfire
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-02-04)Quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides) is a valued, minor component on northeastern California landscapes. It provides a wide range of ecosystem services and has been in decline throughout the region for the last century. ... -
A bi-band binary mask based land-use change detection using landsat 8 OLI imagery
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-03-22)Land use and cover change (LUCC) is important for the global biogeochemical cycle and ecosystem. This paper introduced a change detection method based on a bi-band binary mask and an improved fuzzy c-means algorithm to ... -
A carbon balance of Norway: terrestrial and aquatic carbon fluxes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-02-07)Northernlandscapes accumulate carbon in vegetation and soils while rivers transport significant amounts of land-derived carbon to coastal areas. Here, we quantify carbon sources and sinks in main ecosystems (forests, ... -
A comparative study of clinical manifestations, haematological and serological responses after experimental infection with Anaplasma phagocytophilum in two Norwegian sheep breeds
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011-02-11)Background It has been questioned if the old native Norwegian sheep breed, Old Norse Sheep (also called Norwegian Feral Sheep), normally distributed on coastal areas where ticks are abundant, is more protected against ... -
A comparative study of food values between the United States and Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-01-22)We compare the food values in the USA and Norway using the best–worst scaling approach. The food values examined are aimed at capturing the main issues related to food consumption such as naturalness, taste, price, safety, ... -
A comparison of nonlinear mixed models and response to selection of tick-infestation on lambs
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Tick-borne fever (TBF) is stated as one of the main disease challenges in Norwegian sheep farming during the grazing season. TBF is caused by the bacterium Anaplasma phagocytophilum that is transmitted by the tick Ixodes ... -
A comparison of two methods of data collection for modelling productivity of harvesters: manual time study and follow-up study using on-board-computer stem records
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-04-13)Productivity of a mechanized P. patula cut-to-length harvesting operation was estimated and modelled using two methods of data collection: manual time study and follow-up study using StanForD stem files. The objective of ... -
A comprehensive phylogeographic study of Arion vulgaris Moquin-Tandon, 1855 (Gastropoda: Pulmonata: Arionidae) in Europe
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-12-17)Arion vulgaris Moquin-Tandon, 1855 is regarded as one of the 100 most invasive species in Europe. The native distribution range of this species is uncertain, but for many years, the Iberian Peninsula has been considered ... -
A ddRAD based linkage map of the cultivated Strawberry, Fragaria xananassa
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)The cultivated strawberry (Fragaria ×ananassa Duch.) is an allo-octoploid considered difficult to disentangle genetically due to its four relatively similar sub-genomic chromosome sets. This has been alleviated by the ... -
A Dual-Permeability Approach for Modeling Soil Water Flow and Heat Transport during Freezing and Thawing
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-08-22)Preferential flow may become significant in partially frozen soils because infiltration can occur through large, initially air-filled pores surrounded by a soil matrix with limited infiltration capacity. The objectives of ... -
A metagenomic study of the microbial communities in four parallel biogas reactors
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)This study showed that four parallel reactors co-digesting manure and fish waste silage operated stably during a startup phase. Several important Archaea and Bacteria degrading the protein-rich substrate were identified. ... -
A Mixed Methods Approach Towards Mapping and Economic Valuation of the Divici-Pojejena Wetland Ecosystem Services in Romania
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Mapping and valuating ecosystem services has gained increasing attention over the last years and remains high in the research agenda. In this paper, a mixed methods approach is used to valuate ecosystem services provided ... -
