The Social Aspects of Fishing Effort: Technology and Community in Norway’s Blue Whiting Fisheries
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2007-01-06)While economic literature inspired by the “tragedy of the commons” has emphasised people’s tendency to increase fishing effort beyond desirable levels, sociologists and anthropologists who have studied the social aspects ... -
Quantifying the drivers of the increasing colored organic matter in boreal surface waters
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010-03-23)Long-term monitoring of surface water quality has shown increasing concentrations of colored dissolved organic matter (CDOM) across large parts of the northern latitudes. This has increased purification costs for domestic ... -
Moose Alces alces habitat use at multiple temporal scales in a human-altered landscape
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)Habitat alteration by humans may change the supply of food and cover for wild ungulates, but few studies have examined how these resources are utilised over time by individuals of different sex and reproductive status. We ... -
Long-term effects of environmentally relevant doses of 2,2 ',4,4 ',5,5 ' hexachlorobiphenyl (PCB153) on neurobehavioural development, health and spontaneous behaviour in maternally exposed mice
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011-01-13)Background: Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are widespread in the environment, human food and breast milk. Seafood is known to contain nutrients beneficial for the normal development and function of the brain, but also ... -
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 ... -
Trees Wanted—Dead or Alive! Host Selection and Population Dynamics in Tree-Killing Bark Beetles
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011-05-25)Bark beetles (Coleoptera: Curculionidae, Scolytinae) feed and breed in dead or severely weakened host trees. When their population densities are high, some species aggregate on healthy host trees so that their defences may ... -
Toward a Theory of Compliance in State-Regulated Livelihoods: A Comparative Study of Compliance Motivations in Developed and Developing World Fisheries
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011-05-25)This paper addresses the question of how states can best promote citizens’ compliance with laws that regulate livelihoods. Based on ethnographic data from fishing communities in three countries – Norway, Canada, and South ... -

(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-08)Science-based approaches in addressing future risks and challenges for forests require close collaboration among the communities operating different monitoring and research networks as well as experts in process and ... -
Proteomic study of low temperature responses in strawberry cultivars (Fragaria x ananassa Duchesne) that differ in cold tolerance
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)To gain insight into the molecular basis contributing to overwintering hardiness, a comprehensive proteomic analysis comparing crowns of Fragaria × ananassa (octoploid strawberry) cultivars that differ in freezing tolerance ... -
Effects of Temperature and Photoperiod on Yield and Chemical Composition of Northern and Southern Clones of Bilberry (Vaccinium myrtillus L.)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)After pollination outdoors individual bilberry plants from two Northern and two Southern clones were studied for climatic effects on berry yield and quality in a controlled phytotrone experiment at 12 °C and 18 °C. At each ... -
N2O emission from organic barley cultivation as affected by green manure management
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Legumes are an important source of nitrogen in stockless organic cereal production. However, substantial amounts of N can be lost from legume-grass leys prior to or after incorporation as green manure (GM). Here we report ... -
Primary Succession of Surface Active Beetles and Spiders in an Alpine Glacier Foreland, Central South Norway
