‘Science for all’ : a mission impossible? : a multimodal discourse analysis of practical work and inquiry in Norwegian upper secondary school
(PhD Thesis;2013:30, Doctoral thesis, 2013)Målet for denne avhandlingen er å undersøke hvordan den retoriske innrammingen av praktisk og utforskende arbeid realiserer naturvitenskapelig kunnskap samt læring om naturvitenskap. Avhandlingen har et allmenndannende ... -
Sea level, ocean currents, and vertical land motion along the Norwegian coast
(PhD Thesis;2019:80, Doctoral thesis, 2019)Ocean circulation plays a fundamental role in climate and sea-level related studies due to the ocean’s large heat-storage and transport capacity. Ocean circulation can be derived from numerical ocean models, which might ... -
Sewer Overflow Control using Different Modeling Techniques and Internet of Things
(PhD Thesis;2019:55, Doctoral thesis, 2019)Increased urbanization and extreme rainfall events are causing more frequent instances of sewer overflow, leading to the pollution of water resources and negative environmental, health, and fiscal impacts. At the same time, ... -
Source-separation and on-site wastewater treatment : a combined treatment and resource recovery facility towards a circular economy
(PhD Thesis;2019:4, Doctoral thesis, 2019)The world's water specialists agree to work on increased resource recovery from wastewater and reduced emissions to the environment. Source-separated wastewater treatment systems, which provide opportunities for local ... -
A study of potential energy sources used by cheese ripening bacteria
(PhD Thesis;2012:21, Doctoral thesis, 2012)Non-starter lactic acid bacteria (NSLAB) continue to grow in cheese during ripening even though lactose and its monosaccharide moieties (glucose and galactose (Gal)) are depleted. This indicates that the NSLAB are able to ... -
Sustainable fungal biorefineries : optimizing production of valuable metabolites in oleaginous Mucoromycota
(PhD Thesis;2021:25, Doctoral thesis, 2021)Fungal biorefineries are important players in the emerging global bioeconomy and contribute to the transition from the traditional fossil-based production to a renewable, sustainable and environment-friendly bio-production. ... -
Sustainable planning to reduce urban flooding : an interdisciplinary approach
(PhD Thesis;2017:59, Doctoral thesis, 2017)Statistics show that there is a global trend of increased frequency of urban flooding. Floods can be caused by rising rivers (fluvial) and heavy rain (pluvial). The work presented here has been restricted to the most ... -
Teacher education as key to adaptation to environmental degradation in Tanzania: Development of environmental education through participatory action research
