Climate-growth relationships for Norway spruce and Scots pine remained relatively stable in Norway over the past 60 years despite significant warming trends
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-08-01)Forests, especially in the northern latitudes, are vulnerable ecosystems to climate change, and tree-ring data offer insights into growth-climate relationships as an important effect. Using the National Forest Inventory ... -
Allergenic pollen seasons and regional pollen calendars for Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-01-12)Seasonal pollen allergy is a major public health concern, with many different pollen aeroallergens being present in the atmosphere at varying levels during the season. In Norway, information about spatiotemporal variation ... -
Growth strategies of Chlorella vulgaris in seawater for a high production of biomass and lipids suitable for biodiesel
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-12-16)Chlorella vulgaris is a freshwater microalga that synthesises large amounts of saturated lipids, which makes it suitable for production of bioenergy and biofuels. Since its cultivation usually requires freshwater, it ... -
