Estimation of biomass in tropical rainforest using airborne laser scanning
(PhD Thesis;2015:12, Doctoral thesis, 2019-01-08)Forest inventories based on field sample surveys, supported by auxiliary remotely sensed data, have the potential to provide transparent and confident estimates of forest carbon stocks required in climate change mitigation ... -
Estimation of breed and heterosis effects for cow productivity, carcass traits and income in beef × beef and dairy × beef crosses in commercial suckler cow production
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)This study aims to investigate calving difficulties, birth-, weaning- and carcass weight, herd life of cow, age at slaughter, average daily carcass gain, carcass conformation, carcass fatness and carcass income per carcass, ... -
Estimation of ecosystem respiration and photosynthesis in supersaturated stream water downstream of a hydropower plant
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023) -
Estimation of endogenous loss from soy variants using the 15N isotope dilution method in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)
(Master thesis, 2018)True digestibility of feeds and feed ingredients is difficult to measure in fish, partially due to methodological challenges in quantifying endogenous losses that are mixed with undigested materials originating from the ... -

Estimation of genetic parameters and strain genetic effects in Oreochromis mossambicus
(Master thesis, 2019)A breeding program for Oreochromis mossambicus has been established by CEPAQ (Centro de Pesquisa em Aquacultura, translated as The Research Centre in Aquaculture) and is intended to develop the local fish farming industries ... -
Estimation of genomic variance components in Norsvin Landrace
(Master thesis, 2015-07-02)Several of the major pig breeding companies have implemented genomic selection during the last years, but still there is put much effort in optimizing the use of genomic information. The Norwegian pig breeding company, ... -
Estimation of Groundwater Depletion in Iran’s Catchments Using Well Data
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022) -
Estimation of heritability for the most common calfhood diseases affecting Norwegian Red calves
(Master thesis, 2023)Calf health has been gaining attention in the industry as it is the backbone of a successful dairy cattle enterprise. Calves that have been exposed to one or more calf diseases have been known to have compromised performance ... -
Estimation of minimum tolerated milk temperature for feeding dairy calves with small- and large-aperture teat bottles: A complementary dose-response study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)At birth, calves are functionally monogastric and remain so for the first weeks of life. Milk in the rumen may cause indigestion, diarrhea, and reduced growth. Calves are often fed cold milk from a large-aperture teat, but ... -
Estimation of mixture-distributions using the Direct Look-up method
(Master thesis, 2012-10-16)Mixture distributions and models are useful methods of describing data that cannot be estimated with a single probability distribution. Estimating mixture models based on samples from unknown distributions is a highly ... -

Estimation of noise variance with dimension-reducing regression methods
(Master thesis, 2018)The focus of this thesis has been on investigating the performance of some estimators of the noise variance using the dimension-reducing methods PCR, PLSR and a recently developed Bayesian method, Bayes PLS, through a ... -
Estimation of phosphorus-based flame retardant in wood by hyperspectral imaging—a new method
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)It is recognised that flame retardant chemicals degrade and leach out of flame-protected wood claddings when exposed to natural weathering. However, the ability to survey the current state of a flame retardant treatment ... -
Estimation of production losses due to icing on wind turbines at Kvitfjell wind farm
(Master thesis, 2019)Wind farms in cold climates are known for their challenge’s with lowered performance due to icing on wind turbine blades, but there is little knowledge around the correlation between wind, ice and energy production which ... -
Estimation of scintillation indices: a novel approach based on local kernel regression methods
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016) -
Estimation of small probabilities with applications to forensic genetics
(Master thesis, 2016-08-10)When determining kinship relations based on genetic material, there is a need to quantify the probability for doing errors. These probabilities are typically very small, but nonetheless important, and needs to be controlled. ... -
Estimation of the probability of freedom from Bovine virus diarrhoea virus in Norway using scenario tree modelling
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Disease caused by Bovine virus diarrhoea virus (BVDV) is notifiable in Norway. An eradication programme started in 1992. The number of herds with restrictions decreased from 2950 in 1994 to zero at the end of 2006. From ... -
