Effect of calcareous and siliceous amendments on N2O emissions of a grassland soil
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-05-19)Liming of acidic agricultural soils has been proposed as a strategy to mitigate nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions, as increased soil pH reduces the N2O/N2 product ratio of denitrification. The capacity of different calcareous ... -
The effect of climate variability in the efficacy of the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium acridum against the desert locust Schistocerca gregaria
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-05-09)Despite substantial efforts to control locusts they remain periodically a major burden in Africa, causing severe yield loss and hence loss of food and income. Distribution maps indicating the value of the basic reproduction ... -
The Effect of Combined Drought and Temperature Stress on the Physiological Status of Calcareous Grassland Species as Potential Candidates for Urban Green Infrastructure
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-05-16)Nature-based solutions are promising for climate adaptation and environmental management in urban areas, but urban conditions are stressful for vegetation. In particular, the interaction of drought and high temperatures ... -
Effect of combined seasonal coverage on northern production of strawberry (Fragaria ananassa Duch)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Two field trials with five strawberry cultivars planted on a woven black polyfibre ground cover sheet with or without translucent sheet plant coverage during winter and the growing season as combined treatments were started ... -
Effect of composting and vermicomposting on potentially toxic element contents and bioavailability in sewage sludge digestate
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-02)Vermicomposts and composts prepared from sewage sludge digestate and additives (spent mushroom compost, straw, biochar) after 43 days pre-composting followed by 90 days vermicomposting with Eisenia fetida or by compost ... -
The effect of diammonium phosphate and sodium silicate on the adhesion and fire properties of birch veneer
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-09-24)In built environments the combustibility of wood is a great concern, which limits the use of wood as a building material due to legislation. The reaction-to-fire properties of wood can be altered with the use of fire-retardant ... -
The Effect of Environmental Factors on the Nutrition of European Beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) Varies with Defoliation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-12-30)Despite being adapted to a wide range of environmental conditions, the vitality of European beech is expected to be significantly affected by the projected effects of climate change, which we attempted to assess with foliar ... -
Effect of fertilization, tiller cutting and environment on plant growth and yield of European Blueberry (Vaccinium myrtillus L.) in Norwegian forest fields.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)BACKGROUND: European blueberry (E. blueberry; Vaccinium myrtillus L.) is a natural resource demanded by the processing industry with potential of domestication. Therefore an investigation of the possibilities of partial ... -
Effect of grassland cutting frequency, species mixture, wilting and fermentation pattern of grass silages on in vitro methane yield
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-03-23)Mitigating enteric methane (CH4) emissions is crucial as ruminants account for 5% of global greenhouse gas emissions. We hypothesised that less frequent harvesting, use of crops with lower WSC concentration, ensiling at ... -
Effect of legal regulation of supplemental feeding on space use of red deer in an area with chronic wasting disease
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-12-12)Supplemental feeding of cervids during winter is a widespread management practice, but feeding may increase the risk of disease transmission. Therefore, legal regulations to limit supplemental feeding are often implemented ... -
Effect of maturity stage at harvest and kernel processing of whole crop wheat silage on digestibility by dairy cows
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The study aimed to explore whether digestibility by cows of whole crop wheat silage harvested at two different dough stages of maturity was impaired due to its content of whole kernels. Wheat was harvested at early (ED) ... -
Effect of methyltrimethoxysilane impregnation on the cell wall porosity and water vapour sorption of archaeological waterlogged oak
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-05-02)This paper presents the water vapour sorption behaviour of degraded archaeological oak (Quercus robur L.) and the influence of methyltrimethoxysilane treatment on hygroscopicity. Wood samples (archaeological and undegraded ... -
Effect of organic grass-clover silage on fiber digestion in dairy cows
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-06)There are differences in grass-clover proportions and chemical composition between herbage from primary growth (PG) and regrowth (RG) in grass-clover leys. Mixing silages made from PG and RG may provide a more optimal diet ... -
Effect of plant type and delayed planting on growth and yield parameters of two short day strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa Duch.) cultivars in open field.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-08-18)BACKGROUND: It is questioned if Norwegian nurseries can compete with the continental nursery industry in an open market. OBJECTIVE: Investigated how quality of certified Norwegian strawberry transplants, developed and ... -
Effect of projected land use and climate change on water quality of old woman creek watershed, ohio
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-04-04)The separate and synergistic effects of land use and climate change on water quality variables in Old Woman Creek (OWC) watershed were evaluated using a hydrological model set up in Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) ... -
The effect of quota portfolio composition on optimal harvest strategy and profitability in a multi-species fishery
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-09-04)The benefits of individual vessel quota (IVQ) management in terms of improved harvest strategy and profitability are well recognized, but there is less focus on how different components of a quota portfolio can influence ... -
Effect of replacing organic grass-clover silage from primary growth with regrowth on feed intake and milk yield of dairy cows
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-03)Under Norwegian conditions, diets based on primary growth (PG) silage typically increase milk yield compared to silage prepared from the regrowth (RG). Organic PG, dominated by immature grasses, is often high in energy and ... -
Effect of replacing organic grass-clover silage from primary growth with regrowth on N digestion in dairy cows
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-07-22)Clover proportions, and thereby chemical composition of herbage, differ between primary growth (PG) and regrowth (RG) in organic managed grass-clover fields. The characteristics of PG and RG silages suggest different ... -
