Effects of selective logging on Amazonian wildlife
(PhD thesis;2023:6, Doctoral thesis, 2023)Selective logging of tropical forests is rapidly expanding, making it inevitable that future tropical landscapes will be dominated by production forests. Any biodiversity conservation strategy must consider the potential ... -
Norsk Eksportpotensial til sentral Tysklands tømmermarked
(Master thesis, 2023)Hensikten med analysen av eksportpotensial for sagtømmer av gran (Picea abies Karst.) tar utgangspunkt i det økende behovet for tømmer i sentral Tyskland etter tørkesommeren 2018 til 2020. Målene med analysen var I) at ... -
Korleis vil auka temperaturar påverke reproduksjonsevna og kjønnsfordelinga til Dryas octopetala?
(Master thesis, 2023)Det er antatt at klimautviklinga fram mot år 2100 vil føre med seg auka temperaturar, meir nedbør og meir snø i høgfjellet. Det er også antatt at alpine plantesamfunn vil oppleve klimaendringane raskare enn det globale ... -
Soil carbon storage in the forest-tundra ecotone : insights from field- and remotely sensed data
(PhD Thesis;2023:84, Doctoral thesis, 2023)Due to climate warming, forests are moving to higher elevations and latitudes at the expense of treeless tundra. Recent studies suggest that these vegetation shifts promote soil organic carbon (SOC) losses that exceed ... -
Naturguidens rolle og ansvar knyttet til sikkerhetsstyring i naturbasert reiseliv
(Master thesis, 2023)Formålet med denne oppgaven er å undersøke hvordan naturguider i Norge forstår sitt eget ansvar og sin rolle knyttet til sikkerhetsstyring i naturbasert reiseliv, og få bedre innsikt i sikkerhetsstyringssituasjonen og ... -
Tree species effects on litter decomposition and soil carbon
(PhD thesis;2022:18, Doctoral thesis, 2022)Boreal forests soils play an important role in mitigating climate change as they are the largest terrestrial carbon pool. The accumulation of soil carbon is regulated by the balance of carbon and nitrogen input from plant ... -
Pollination Efficiency of Native Bees and Honeybees to Apple in Norway
(Master thesis, 2023)Crop pollination is traditionally managed with the European honeybee (Apis mellifera). However, the supply of honeybees may not be sufficient to meet the increasing global pollination demands and beekeepers are met with ... -
Impact of low dose rate ionising radiation : studies in mice evaluating immediate and long-term molecular responses and transgenerational genomic instability
(PhD Thesis;2023:40, Doctoral thesis, 2023)Mye av det vi vet om risiko for helseeffekter etter å ha blitt usatt for ioniserende stråling er kunnskap lært fra de som overlevde atombombene i Hiroshima og Nagasaki. Imidlertid er denne kunnskapen basert på effekter ... -
Soundscape analysis for biodiversity monitoring in tropical rainforest ecosystems
(PhD Thesis;2023:71, Doctoral thesis, 2023)Tropical rainforests harbour up to 66% of the world’s terrestrial biodiversity but have been reduced in extent by up to 60% due to persistent deforestation and forest degradation, resulting in the population decline or ... -
Landscape-scale determinants and dynamics of large carnivore density
(PhD Thesis;2023:36, Doctoral thesis, 2023)1. Wildlife populations live in increasingly human-altered landscapes. Either because of their intrinsic values or due to instrumental values to humans, wildlife populations are monitored to inform about their current ... -
Erfaringer, lønnsomhet og muligheter knyttet til bruk av fornybar energi til korntørking
(Master thesis, 2023)Tørking av korn er en energikrevende prosess som krever høy effekt i en kort periode. Korntørking på gårdsnivå i Norge baserer seg i stor grad på bruk av fossil energi. For at landbruket skal klare å innfri sine mål om ... -
Forurensningstransport fra Slettebakken deponi i Bergen, fysisk kartlegging og modellering
(Master thesis, 2023)Sammendrag Gamle avfallsdeponi har blitt et stadig mer aktuelt tema på grunn av økt søkelys på klimaendringer og forurensing av det ytre miljø. Mange deponier var ofte anlagt uten tilstrekkelig topp- og bunntetting, noe ... -
The Diversity and Behavior of Pollinating Insects in Apple Orchard
(Master thesis, 2023)Diverse assemblages of insects improve the overall productivity and stability of natural and agricultural ecosystems. Cultivated fruit crops, such as apples, that require pollination services by insects are particularly ... -
Inoculation with industrialized mycorrhiza powder in a forest plant nursery with standard production methods.
(Master thesis, 2023)Skogreising på Island står nesten kun av planting av planter fra planteskoler. På landsbasis ligger gjennomsnittlig overlevelse i felt på under 50%. Muligheten for å øke overlevelsen ved å inokulere plantene med mykorrhiza ... -
Encounter rates and distribution of Inia geoffrensis and Sotalia fluviatilis in the middle Juruá region, western Amazonia, Brazil
(Master thesis, 2023)The Amazon Basin and its floodplains are a highly productive ecosystem that habitats many of the world’s freshwater species. The flood pulse which seasonally inundates the flooded forests creates dynamic environments with ... -

Plant-plant interactions do not result in reproductive costs for Silene acaulis across an elevational gradient at Finse, Norway
(Master thesis, 2023)Plants interact negatively with each other through competition for space, light, or belowground resources, resulting in a reduction in individual survival, growth, or reproduction. Facilitation, on the other hand, is a ... -
Identifying Valuable Habitat Types for Pipistrellus bat species in Norwegian Boreal Forests
(Master thesis, 2023)* Bats are a substantial component of the forest vertebrate community and provide numerous ecosystem services. Although protected in Norway, bats still face threats to their habitat due to intensive forestry but are rarely ... -
Bærekraftsanalyse av et mikronett i Filippinene: En komparativ studie av klima- og miljøpåvirkninger i et livsløpsperspektiv
(Master thesis, 2023)I 2023 stod energisektoren for hele 35% av verdens klimagassutslipp. Uten betydelig reduksjon i klimagassutslipp fra energisektoren vil det være umulig å begrense <2 graders-målet til Parisavtalen innen dette århundre. I ... -
