Climate change effects on substrate affinity and trait-dependent responses in wood-decomposing fungi (Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2016)Climate change is the effect of rapid and recent change in global climate variables, affecting all species in all ecosystems. Fungi are no exception, fulfilling a variety of important roles as decomposers, parasites and ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2015)Across the avian lineage, closely related species, or even populations within the same species may display differing migratory phenotypes. The many components of migratory behaviour are inherited as one migratory gene ...

(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2019)Black-headed Gulls are in rapid decline in Norway and is categorized as VU (Vulnerable) on the national Red List. The Norwegian population has decreased from 30 000 pairs around 1990 to just 7000 pairs in 2011. In the study ...

(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2017)Abstract Rotifers and phytoplankton have been vastly used by scientists as model organisms in toxicological, eco-toxicological, ecological and other studies. In order to conduct experiments on interactions between animals ...

(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2022)The fungal life cycle is highly diverse in different fungal groups. For most wood-decaying basidiomycetes, their life cycle includes two different mycelial stages, a primary monokaryotic and a secondary dikaryotic stage, ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2018)Studying the ecology and measuring levels of population genetic diversity are important steps for assessing the conservation status and implementing appropriate conservation strategies for rare or endangered plant species. ...

Description of a new Upper Jurassic ophthalmosaurid ichthyosaur from the Slottsmøya Member, Agardhfjellet Formation of central SpitsbergenRestricted Access (Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2013)Ichthyosaurs were a group of marine reptiles that thrived in the Mesozoic seas. They evolved to be highly specialized marine predators, and were the first reptilian group to be entirely aquatic. This project’s goal was to ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2022)Differences in variation of phenotypic trait expression between males and females have been observed in multiple studies that are limited to one species, but meta-analytic evidence has failed to show consistent differences ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2013)The ridge-snowbed gradient is of high importance in alpine areas in structuring the vegetation cover. However, to what degree belowground fungal communities are affected by the gradient is much poorer understood. In this ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2021)Altitudinal tree- and forest lines (TFLs) are two boundaries (but often abbreviated with one word to save space) in the transition zone that separates closed forest from treeless tundra in alpine regions. Due to the last ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2018)In northern Europe, the tick Ixodes ricinus is of particular concern, as it is the principal vector of the spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato (s.l.) which is known to cause Lyme disease in humans, among other ...

(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2016)Primates habitats are being increasingly fragmented by human activities worldwide. The behavioural flexibility exhibited by vervet monkeys (Chlorocebus pygerythrus) is assumed to be crucial in the species ability to persist ...
