In many countries, policies regarding reduction of unwanted catch and discards are crafted in response to concerns regarding accountability, conservation, and waste as well as scientific needs to fully account for all sources of fishing mortality. It is important to note, however, that unwanted catch is minimal and most, or all, of the catch has value in some fisheries. Utilisation rates are very ...

Acremonium is acknowledged as a highly ubiquitous genus including saprobic, parasitic, or endophytic fungi that inhabit a variety of environments. Species of this genus are extensively exploited in industrial, commercial, pharmaceutical, and biocontrol applications, and proved to be a rich source of novel and bioactive secondary metabolites. Acremonium has been recognised as a taxonomically difficult ...

The golden redfish Sebastes norvegicus is a long-lived commercial species of redfish in the North Atlantic. Excessive harvest through decades has led to a decline in the mature population in Norwegian waters, which is currently considered to be severely depleted. Accumulating genetic evidence suggest a more complex structure within the Sebastes genus in the North Atlantic, which has recently formed ...

Organisasjonskultur i toppidrettsorganisasjoner er et lite, men voksende forskningsfelt. Disse organisasjonene er interessante både grunnet strukturene i dem, i tillegg til at flere organisasjonskulturelle fenomener ofte er vanlige i idrettsorganisasjoner, som symboler og historie. Dette legger grunnlaget for at en casestudie av organisasjonskulturen i en norsk toppfotballklubb er interessant. For ...

Tema for denne studien er det strafferettslige sanksjonssystemet i fiskerinæringen, og hensikten er å utforske og analysere hvordan dette systemet bidrar til å utvikle regjerlige fiskerier i Norge. Studien utforsker dette ved å undersøke systemets organisering, strategier og strafferettslig praksis, samt relevante aktørers oppfatninger av systemet. Problemstillingen i studien er: «I hvilken grad ...

This research letter critically reflects on the missing animal gaze in tourism studies and elaborates on the urgency of including it in the discussion about the relationship between human and non-human animals. Drawing on the Foucauldian gaze and on the John Urry’s tourist gaze, we reflect on the unproblematised power imbalance between human and animal gazes that is inherent in tourist ...

Denne studien undersøker rekrutteringsmønsteret i den færøyske fiskeriflåten i nyere tid. Tradisjonelt har fiskeri og fiskeri relaterte aktiviteter opprettholdt store deler av lokal samfunnene på Færøyene. I et stadig mer moderne samfunn og en stadig mer spesialisert fiskerinæring har man opplevd at nye strategier etableres for høsting av ressursene påvirker strukturen til fiskeriflåten. Flere ...

The once pristine Arctic is now facing negative alterations with a rapidly changing climate, increasing human activity, and plastic pollution. Seabirds are intrinsic to the marine ecosystems, and in recent years, plastic ingestion by seabirds has been of increasing concern because of the potential negative impact on individual and population levels. The aim of this study was to investigate the plastic ...

Timing is everything for Arctic flowering plants. Early flowers might be destroyed by frost, while late flowers have less time and resources to mature fruit. With climate change, Arctic flowering phenology is shifting. Yet for many species, phenology studies only encompass the onset of flowering and lack baseline data on within-plant flowering times. I used the gynodioecious cushion plant Silene ...
