Reindeer carcasses modulate vegetation composition and greenness in High-Arctic tundra.
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-10-23)Vertebrate carrion is an integral part of foodwebs in ecosystems and can impact biodiversity at the local as well as the landscape scale. However, very little knowledge currently exists about the ecological role of carrion in the Arctic ecosystems. We conducted a ground survey on the cover of five plant functional groups at paired reindeer carcass and control sites and analysed the relationship ... -

Foreldres erfaring av veiledning og mestringstro etter nyfødtintensiv-opphold.
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2024)«Jeg har verdens beste jobb». Dette utsagnet har jeg hørt mange ganger, fra sykepleiere i norske nyfødtintensiv-poster. Selv hvor belastende det er, å erfare hvor mye strev mange prematurt fødte barn må utholde, så gir det «superkrefter» å erfare at man kan hjelpe dem over opprørt hav. Hjelpe barn og familien å komme til et bedre sted. Jeg tenker ofte på sangen «Bridge over troubled water» når jeg ... -

Physical Activity Volume, Intensity, and Mortality: Harmonized Meta-Analysis of Prospective Cohort Studies
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-07-31)Introduction - It is unclear whether moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) is associated with a lower mortality risk, over and above its contribution to total physical activity volume.<p> <p>Methods - 46,682 adults (mean age: 64 years) were included in a meta-analysis of nine prospective cohort studies. Each cohort generated tertiles of accelerometry-measured physical activity volume and ... -
Multiresolution of the one dimensional free-particle propagator. Part 2: Implementation
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-11-07)A novel method to integrate the time-dependent Schrödinger equation within the framework of multiresolution analysis is presented. The method is based on symplectic splitting algorithms to separate the kinetic and potential parts of the corresponding propagator. The semigroup associated with the free-particle Schrödinger operator is represented in a multiwavelet basis. The propagator is effectively ... -
Influence of menstrual- and hormonal contraceptive cycle on self-reported symptom severity and recovery measures across an annual season in female endurance athletes: The FENDURA project
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-12-05)This longitudinal study investigated 1) differences in self-reported cycle-related symptom severity and recovery measures (sleep quality, readiness to train, resting heart rate) between pre-bleeding, bleeding, and non-bleeding days in athletes using/not using hormonal contraception (HC); 2) associations between symptom severity and recovery measures. Fifty-eight female endurance athletes ... -
Ice algae as supplementary food rather than major energy source for the Barents sea zooplankton community
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-10-28)The Barents Sea is a hotspot for environmental change due to global warming. These changes impact the structure and functioning of the marine ecosystem year-round, and it is therefore important to gain knowledge on trophic relationships and the energy flow from primary producers, i.e., ice algae (sympagic algae) and phytoplankton (pelagic algae) to consumers over the entire seasonal cycle. By using ... -
Assessing the Partial Hessian Approximation in QM/MM-Based Vibrational Analysis
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-10-18)The partial Hessian approximation is often used in vibrational analysis of quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) systems because calculating the full Hessian matrix is computationally impractical. This approach aligns with the core concept of QM/MM, which focuses on the QM subsystem. Thus, using the partial Hessian approximation implies that the main interest is in the local vibrational ... -
Seasonal and Local Time Variation in the Observed Peak of the Meteor Altitude Distributions by Meteor Radars
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-11-05)Meteoroids of sub‐milligram sizes burn up high in the Earth's atmosphere and cause streaks of plasma trails detectable by meteorradars. The altitude at which these trails, or meteors,form depends on a number of factors including atmospheric density and the astronomical source populations from which these meteoroids originate. A previousstudy hasshown that the altitude of these meteorsis affected ... -
Youths over 18 receiving support from the child welfare service: evolving motivation in the interaction between the youth and the caseworker
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-11-26)This article focuses on the interaction between youths and caseworkers and how it influences youths’ motivation during emerging adulthood. The study is based on qualitative interviews with 10 youths aged 18–23 and six child welfare caseworkers. The interviews were analysed using a phenomenological and hermeneutic approach. In the analysis, we examine which factors motivated youths to evolve in the ... -
Civic Friendship, the Burdens of Politics, and the Ethics of Attention
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-11-22)In Philosophizing the Indefensible Shmuel Nili proposes strategic political theory as a productive and respectful manner for political philosophy to engage with unreasonable political views. One objection to his proposal he considers is that strategic political theory gives ‘excessive attention' to unreasonable views. In this paper I offer a perspective on this objection which Nili does not consider ... -
Sex Differences in Performance and Performance-Determining Factors in the Olympic Winter Endurance Sports
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-11-20)Background - Most sex comparisons in endurance sports have been derived from performance-matched groups of female and male athletes competing over similar distances within summer sports. Corresponding analyses of sex differences in winter endurance sports have not previously been conducted. In the Olympic Winter Games (OWG), the endurance sports include cross-country skiing (XCS), biathlon (BIA), ... -
Plasma soluble TIM-3 is increased in normoglycemic South Asian women compared to Nordic women after gestational diabetes mellitus and associated with markers of metaflammation
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-11-30)Background - Women with South Asian ethnicity have a higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) compared with white women of European descent, especially after gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Central obesity and adipose tissue dysfunction have been linked to their higher risk of T2DM, but the mechanisms are not known. We hypothesize that low-grade, persistent immune cell activation ... -
Melting simulations of high-entropy carbonitrides by deep learning potentials
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-11-19)The melting temperature is a crucial property of materials that determines their potential applications in different industrial fields. In this study, we used a deep neural network potential to describe the structure of high-entropy (TiZrTaHfNb)CxN1−x carbonitrides (HECN) in both solid and liquid states. This approach allows us to predict heating and cooling temperatures depending on the nitrogen ... -

Structural dynamics of human deoxyuridine 5’-triphosphate nucleotidohydrolase (dUTPase)
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-10-30)Structural- and functional heterogeneity, as well as allosteric regulation, in homo-monomeric enzymes is a highly active area of research. One such enzyme is human nuclear-associated deoxyuridine 5’-triphosphate nucleotidohydrolase (dUTPase), which has emerged as an interesting drug target in combination therapy with traditional nucleotide analogue treatment of cancer. We report, for the first time, ... -

Optimising Interannual Sea Ice Thickness Variability Retrieved From CryoSat-2
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-10-29)Satellite radar altimeters like CryoSat‐2 estimate sea ice thickness by measuring the returntime of transmitted radar pulses, reflected from the sea ice and ocean surface, to measure the radar freeboard. Converting freeboard to thickness requires an assumption regarding the fractional depth of the snowpack from which the radar waves backscatter (α). We derive sea ice thickness from CryoSat‐2 radar ...
