Disentangling the drivers of European badger (Meles meles) activity at multiple temporal scales
(Master thesis, 2020)Animals shape their activity in response to several processes that take place at different timescales. It stands to reason that the assessment of activity at multiple temporal scales will enhance the understanding of its ... -
Disentangling the effect of physical and chemical factors on phytoplankton dynamics in a highly eutrophic and turbid lake
(PhD Thesis;2012:11, Doctoral thesis, 2012)The fact that nutrients limit primary production in aquatic ecosystems is widely accepted, and phosphorus is demonstrated as the main limiting nutrient in freshwaters. Strict control of phosphorus supply has therefore ... -

(Master thesis, 2022)The primary source of 137Cs in Norway is the Chernobyl accident, and several decades after the accident, there is still a substantial amount in the environment. The area of Hattfjelldal, within the catchment area of the ... -
Distribution Modeling of Vegetation Types in Venabygdsfjellet, Oppland.
(Master thesis, 2014-08-06)This study explores the effect of increasing sample units density with presence-only data (PO data) on the ability to predict the distribution of three common (2e dwarf shrub heath, 4b bilberry birch forest and 9c fen) ... -
Distribution of metals and organic material along a Norwegian river - ocean transect
(Master thesis, 2021)The distribution of metals in aquatic systems is crucial for bioavailability and toxicity. Metals are transported from catchment to oceans through rivers. During this transport, the properties of metals (e.g., charge, size, ... -

Distribution, Age and Growth Dynamics of Scots Pine Recruits on Its Northern Distributional Limit in Norway
(Master thesis, 2023)Growth and age structures of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) at its northern distribution are influenced by both regional climate and microsite conditions. While large-scale trends for stand regeneration and annual growth ... -
Diversity of wild bees in semi-natural grasslands in southeast Norway is related to temperature and amount of edge habitat in the surrounding landscape
(Master thesis, 2021)The declines in diversity and abundance of wild bees are mainly attributed to the intensification of agricultural practices and the resulting loss of semi-natural grassland habitats. Furthermore, the effect of climate ... -
