    • Markedsundersøkelse: Norsk varmrøkt laks til Japan 

      Riple, Anna Karia Lerøy (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2021-11-16)
      min studie vil jeg se på muligheten for å introdusere et nytt lakseprodukt til Japan, Varmrøykt laks. Varmrøkt laks ble valgt som utgangspunkt fordi dette er et bearbeidet lakseprodukt som antatt hadde ingen eller lite anerkjennelse i Japan. Ved å introdusere et bearbeidet lakseprodukt ingen hadde noe forhold til og deretter måle oppfatning av dette produktet, kunne man si noe om mulighetene for ...
    • [EFFECT OF CROWDING ON BEHAVIOUR OF ATLANTIC SALMON (Salmo salar) IN AQUACULTURE] [Using behaviour as a tool to assess welfare in Atlantic salmon aquaculture production] 

      Bhadmus, Zainab Titilope (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2022-10-20)
      Aquaculture productions are increasing worldwide and producers are concerned about the welfare of farmed fish. The importance of good welfare cannot be overemphasized throughout the production cycle as each stage has risks and as such must be closely monitored. In this study, a literature review of animal and fish welfare and behaviour was done with special emphasis on the behaviour of Atlantic ...

      Oo Lwin, Chit (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2022-09-05)
      Light fishing is one of the most advanced and successful methods in several fisheries worldwide. Light fishing operations in Myanmar involve using light luring methods in inshore and offshore fisheries, especially for catching squids and pelagic fishes in squid seine (stick-held falling net) and purse seine vessels. Technological advancements have led fishers to use more power, light intensity, and ...
    • The effect of microplastic on natural transformation and biofilm formation using Acinetobacter baylyi as a model organism 

      Strømmen, Marte (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2022-05-15)
      Microplastic pollution is a big and rapidly increasing environmental problem in the world. Although the direct effects of microplastic pollution are well-studied the indirect effects are hardly investigated, especially in the context of spreading antibiotic resistance genes. Antibiotic resistance is a natural phenomenon, but the misuse and overuse of antibiotics has led to a rapid development and ...

      Tran, Ha Phuong (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2022-06-15)
      Background: The effect of diet on fatty acids in Atlantic salmon, particularly omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 LC PUFA), has been understudied due to lack of marine raw materials (fish meal and fish oil). A variety of ingredients are used as replacements for fish meal for Atlantic salmon. The aim of this systematic literature review (SLR) is examining the effect of omega 3 fatty ...
    • Intensjon til netthandel og fysisk handel 

      Olsen, Fredrik; Klaudiussen, Ida Karoline (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2023-05-31)
      Koronapandemien førte til at flere konsumenter ble tvunget til å handle klær på nett, når fysiske butikker ble nedstengt. Dette har skapt en permanent effekt hvor man er blitt mer komfortable til å handle klær på nett, selv etter gjenåpning av fysiske butikker. I vår modell har ønsket vi å se på sensorisk stimulering, bekvemmelighet, kostnader og oppfattet risiko, og i hvor stor grad disse påvirker ...

      Eriksen, Philip Einar D.; Green, Raymond G. (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2023-05-31)
      This study aims to investigate the impact of country of ownership on Norwegian consumers' brand attitudes, perceived quality, brand value, and loyalty. As companies increasingly internationalize, it becomes crucial to examine how this may influence brand equity and identify strategies to mitigate any potential negative effects. This knowledge would be beneficial for both national and international ...
    • Ultrasonic imaging as a means of monitoring gonadal development in lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) 

      Mlingi, Frank Thomas; Puvanendran, Velmurugu; Burgerhout, Erik; Tveiten, Helge; Tomkiewicz, Jonna; Kjørsvik, Elin; Mommens, Maren (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-09-21)
      The commercial farming of juvenile lumpfish requires monitoring of gonadal development to achieve synchronized production. Conventional methods such as gonadosomatic index (GSI), sex hormone analyses, gonadal histology, endoscopy, and gene expression analyses are costly, invasive, and often involve sacrificing the fish. We assessed the efficiency of ultrasound as a non-invasive method for monitoring ...
    • Long-term herbivore removal experiments reveal how geese and reindeer shape vegetation and ecosystem CO2-fluxes in high-Arctic tundra 

      Petit Bon, Matteo; Hansen, Brage Bremset; Loonen, M. J. J. E; Petraglia, Alessandro; Bråthen, Kari Anne; Böhner, Hanna; Layton-Matthews, Kate; Beard, Karen H.; Le Moullec, Mathilde; Jonsdottir, Ingibjorg Svala; Van der Wal, René (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-09-23)
      1. Given the current rates of climate change, with associated shifts in herbivore population densities, understanding the role of different herbivores in ecosystem functioning is critical for predicting ecosystem responses. Here, we examined how migratory geese and resident, non-migratory reindeer—two dominating yet functionally contrasting herbivores—control vegetation and ecosystem processes in ...
    • Marine Micro- and Macroalgae in the Polar Night 

      Johnsen, Geir; Leu, Eva; Gradinger, Rolf (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2020)
      Microalgae have unique adaptions including low metabolic activity, utilization of lipid storage, and resting stage formation to survive the Polar Night. Some species are mixotrophic or heterotrophic and do survive periods that are not favorable for photosynthetic (autotrophic) growth, such as the Polar Night. In addi- tion, the autotrophic and mixotrophic species seem to maintain the key components ...
    • Trapped in the TAC Machine: Making a Fisheries-Based Indicator System for Coastal Cod in Steigen, Norway 

      Holm, Petter; Aglen, Asgeir; Bjørkan, Maiken; Andersen, Jan (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2020)
      The GAP project is concerned with the lack of stakeholder participation in providing knowledge for management. This creates a legitimacy problem as the fishermen do not get to share the knowledge basis for and justification of management decisions. In addition, fishermen’s experience-based knowledge remains unused. GAP intends to bridge the legitimacy and knowledge gaps, finding practical ways for ...

      Holm, Petter; Hadjimichael, Maria; Mackinson, Steven; Linke, Sebestian (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2020)
      Scientific debates often revolve around the issues of ‘unbiased science’ with the majority of scientists keeping themselves at arm’s length from policy-making to ensure their credibility. Participatory research has been shifting these dynamics and has led to the emergence of research practices and advice frameworks that allow co-creation of common knowledge bases for management. This chapter, following ...
    • Conclusion 

      Mackinson, Steven; Holm, Petter; Hadjimichael, Maria (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2020)

    • Small-Scale Fisheries Governance in Norway: Hierarchy, Institutions and Markets 

      Johnsen, Jahn Petter (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2020-04-29)
      Small-scale fisheries are highly relevant in Norway. Until 1989, small-scale fisheries were open access and, like other Norwegian fisheries, subsidised; since then they have changed radically. The closure of major fisheries in the early 1990s, following collapses in important stocks and the removal of direct subsidies, has affected fisheries of all sizes. Societal changes have also had an impact on ...
