Bunching up the background betters bias in species distribution models
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Sets of presence records used to model species’ distributions typically consist of observations collected opportunistically rather than systematically. As a result, sampling probability is geographically uneven, which may ... -
Closing the sustainable development gap: A global study of goal interactions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Meeting one sustainable development goal on human needs, social justice, or environmental limits can make it harder (or easier) to meet others. The extent to which countries succeed in reconciling these goals is context-specific ... -
Collective Action and Social Innovation in the Energy Sector: A Mobilization Model Perspective
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)This conceptual paper applies a mobilization model to Collective Action Initiatives (CAIs) in the energy sector. The goal is to synthesize aspects of sustainable transition theories with social movement theory to gain ... -
Community dynamics can modify the direction of simulated warming effects on crop yield
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Climate change affects agriculture through a range of direct and indirect pathways. These include direct changes to impacts of pests and diseases on crops and indirect effects produced by interactions between organisms. ... -
Composite landscape predictors improve distribution models of ecosystem types
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Aim Distribution modelling is a useful approach to obtain knowledge about the spatial distribution of biodiversity, required for, for example, red‐list assessments. While distribution modelling methods have been applied ... -
Concurrent MORB-type and ultrapotassic volcanism in an extensional basin along the Laurentian Iapetus margin: Tectonomagmatic response to Ordovician arc-continent collision and subduction polarity flip
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Arc-continent collision, followed by subduction polarity flip, occurs during closure of oceanic basins and contributes to the growth of continental crust. Such a setting may lead to a highly unusual association of ultrapotassic ... -
Constraining the tectonic evolution of rifted continental margins by U–Pb calcite dating
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)We employ U–Pb calcite dating of structurally-controlled fracture fills within crystalline Caledonian basement in western Norway to reveal subtle large-scale tectonic events that affected this rifted continental margin. ... -
The Contribution of Energy Communities to the Upscaling of Photovoltaics in Germany and Italy
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Energy communities (EC) are among the new actors in the energy market, playing an important role in the uptake of photovoltaics (PV) in European markets. This paper estimates their aggregate contribution to the low-carbon ... -
Correlates of Commuter Cycling in Three Norwegian Counties
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Globally, there is an increasing challenge of physical inactivity and associated diseases. Commuter cycling is an everyday physical activity with great potential to increase the health status in a population. We aimed to ... -
Cryoconite – From minerals and organic matter to bioengineered sediments on glacier's surfaces
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Cryoconite is a mixture of mineral and organic material covering glacial ice, playing important roles in biogeochemical cycles and lowering the albedo of a glacier surface. Understanding the differences in structure of ... -
Current state and call for action to accomplish findability, accessibility, interoperability, and reusability of low carbon energy data
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)With the continued digitization of the energy sector, the problem of sunken scholarly data investments and forgone opportunities of harvesting existing data is exacerbating. It compounds the problem that the reproduction ... -
Deconvoluting complex structural histories archived in brittle fault zones
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Brittle deformation can saturate the Earth’s crust with faults and fractures in an apparently chaotic fashion. The details of brittle deformational histories and implications on, for example, seismotectonics and landscape, ... -
Deep-water trace fossils in the Ilfjellet rift basin (Middle Ordovician), central Norwegian Caledonides
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The late Early to early Middle Ordovician Fjellvollen Formation, Central Norwegian Caledonides, is a part of the Ilfjellet Group volcano-sedimentary succession formed in a rift basin that opened along the Laurentian margin. ... -
The dessau grassland experiment-impact of fertilization on forage quality and species assembly in a species-rich alluvial meadow
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Since alluvial meadows of river valleys of the Cnidion dubii are protected by the EU Habitats Directive, reconciling farmers’ demands for forage quality with the objective of maintaining them in good conservation status ... -
The Development of Citizen-Installed Renewable Energy Capacities in Former Eastern Bloc Countries—The Case of Poland
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)We confront empirical data on citizen-led renewable energy capacities in Poland with results obtained from a meta-theoretical, empirical analysis of the national energy system. We elicit and rank essential disabling and ... -
Distribution and ecology of Trichocolea tomentella in Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)The liverwort Trichocolea tomentella is known from 65 localities in southern Norway. Almost half of these are in Hordaland county in Western Norway. T. tomentella has been observed at many localities (42%) in the last ... -
Disturbance severity and community resilience in a boreal forest
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2004)We studied the resilience of southeastern Norwegian old-growth Picea abies forest floor vegetation to experimental disturbance. Five treatments, differing in depth of removal of vegetation and soil layers and making up a ... -
Do people prefer offshore to onshore wind energy? The role of ownership and intended use
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Global investments in offshore wind energy are expected to escalate over the coming decades, fueled by improvements in technology, declining costs, and increasing political support. The complexity, scale, and location of ... -
Drainage system and thermal structure of a High Arctic polythermal glacier: Waldemarbreen, western Svalbard
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Understanding glacier drainage system behaviour and its response to increased meltwater production faces several challenges in the High Arctic because many glaciers are transitioning from polythermal to almost entirely ... -
The Dynamics of Profitability among Salmon Farmers—A Highly Volatile and Highly Profitable Sector
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Salmon farming stands out from many other industries with its very high profitability, but it is also highly volatile. The main question is whether the profit of individual firms is stable, or whether profitable firms ...
