(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2020)Background and aims – The species delimitations within the prostrate species with condensed inflorescence in Chlorophytum are ambiguous and the taxonomic rank of several of the species involved are disputed. This study ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2013)Speciation involves the evolution of reproductive barriers that maintain the genetic integrity of species. Premating barriers, in particular, have been referred to as one of the most important mechanisms in keeping species ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2018)Successful resource‐management and conservation outcomes ideally depend on matching the spatial scales of population demography, local adaptation, and threat mitigation. For marine fish with high dispersal capabilities, ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2017)1. Identifying the spatial scale of population structuring is critical for the conservation of natural populations and for drawing accurate ecological inferences. However, population studies often use spatially aggregated ...

Fine-scale spatial structure of root-associated fungi within a single plant root systemRestricted Access (Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2014)Ectomycorrhiza (ECM) is an ancient and prevalent symbiosis between plants and fungi, and is crucial for growth and survival for a number of plants. Host plants can form ECM with multiple fungi, yet little is known about ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2020)Mathematical models for excitable cells are commonly based on cable theory, which considers a homogenized domain and spatially constant ionic concentrations. Although such models provide valuable insight, the effect of ...

-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2018)Visually evoked signals in the retina pass through the dorsal geniculate nucleus (dLGN) on the way to the visual cortex. This is however not a simple feedforward flow of information: there is a significant feedback from ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)To support the predicted growth of shipping activities in the Arctic region in coming decades, port developments and associated shipping infrastructure will be required to be developed in both Arctic and sub-Arctic areas. ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)Climate variability, fishing and predation are the main factors affecting fish population dynamics. In this study, the drivers of population growth variability were investigated for 7 fish stocks (2 cod, 4 herring and 1 ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2022)Length and depth of fish larvae are part of the fundamental measurements in many marine ecology studies involving early fish life history. Until now, obtaining these measurements has required intensive manual labor and the ...

-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2022)For more than five decades, research has been conducted at Ny-Ålesund, in Svalbard, Norway, to understand the structure and functioning of High- Arctic ecosystems and the profound impacts on them of environmental change. ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2021)Camera trapping is an increasingly important tool in animal ecology that is generally targeted towards large mammals, and especially large carnivores. Nonetheless, the cameras are triggered by all large and medium-sized ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2018)Studies of the effects of habitat fragmentation and degradation on primate positional behavior, strata use, and substrate utilization offer valuable insights into the behavioral and ecological flexibility of primates whose ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)Variability of mesopelagic scattering layers is often attributed to environmental conditions or multi-species layer composition. Yet, little is known about variation in behaviour among the individuals forming scattering ...
-
Flow Cytometric Analysis of Tumor-Associated Macrophages in Human Non-Small Cell Lung CancerRestricted Access (Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2017)
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2017)Insect pollination is an important contribution to wild ecosystems in Norway and 80 % of plants seem to benefit from this important ecosystem service. During the last century, there has been an overall decline in pollinators, ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)Shade coffee farming has been promoted as a means of combining sustainable coffee production and biodiversity conservation. Supporting this idea, similar levels of diversity and abundance of birds have been found in shade ...
