Evaluering av en kompakt enhet for primær og sekundær rensing av gråvann
(Master thesis, 2019)Vann er en forutsetning for alt liv på jorden. Det er også en begrenset ressurs. Teknologi som muliggjør redusert vannforbruk, samt løsninger for gjenbruk av vann, er derfor et svært aktuelt tema. Dersom avløpsvannet fra ... -
Evaluering av fysiske miljøtiltak og miljøeffekter på yngeltetthet av sjøørret (Salmo trutta) i 13 bekker i Verdal kommune
(Master thesis, 2021)Inngrep i bekker og elver i forbindelse med infrastruktur og jordbruk, kan medføre vandringsproblemer og uegnet habitat for anadrom laksefisk. Tiltak for å forbedre bekkehabitater og gjenopprette vandringsmulighetene mellom ... -
Evaluering av fysiske tiltak og miljøeffekter på yngeltetthet hos sjøørret (Salmo trutta) i Verdalsvassdragets sidebekker
(Master thesis, 2019)Vandringshindre og forringelse av habitat oppstår ofte i forbindelse med utbygging av infrastruktur og aktivt jordbruk. Dette kan føre til uegnet habitat for sjøørreten (Salmo trutta), eller at muligheten til å fullføre ... -
Evaluering av modeller for antall årringer i kjerneved og diameter i kjerneved i furu (Pinus sylvestri L.)
(Master thesis, 2022)Kjerneved fra furu (Pinus Sylvestris) er et materiale som er naturlig holdbart og motstandsdyktig mot biologisk nedbrytning. Dette er en fordel ved at man kan produsere trelast som kan tåle litt fuktighet, uten at man ... -
Experimentally testing the effect of increased temperature on senescence rate of three plant species utilized by the Svalbard reindeer
(Master thesis, 2023)The Arctic is experiencing the most rapid climate warming on earth. While the climate induced changes in spring have received a lot of attention, similar studies for the effects in autumn have been neglected. In this thesis ... -
