Bioactive Metabolites of Marine Origin Have Unusual Effects on Model Membrane Systems
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Marine sponges and soft corals have yielded novel compounds with antineoplastic and antimicrobial activities. Their mechanisms of action are poorly understood, and in most cases, little relevant experimental evidence is ... -
Bioavailability of Macro and Micronutrients Across Global Topsoils: Main Drivers and Global Change Impacts
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023) -
Biochar amendment for improved and more sustainable peat stabilisation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022) -
Biochar amendment improves degraded pasturelands in Brazil: environmental and cost-benefit analysis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Most deforested lands in Brazil are occupied by low-productivity cattle ranching. Brazil is the second biggest meat producer worldwide and is projected to increase its agricultural output more than any other country. Biochar ... -
Biochar Effect on Maize Yield and Soil Characteristics in Five Conservation Farming Sites in Zambia
(Journal article, 2013)Biochar addition to agricultural soils can improve soil fertility, with the added bonus of climate change mitigation through carbon sequestration. Conservation farming (CF) is precision farming, often combining minimum ... -
Biochar for the Improvement of Soil and Rock With Acid Potentia
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Biochar is a carbonaceous material generated by the heating of organic matter under limited access to oxygen (called pyrolysis). While pyrolysis is applied to dry feed, hydrothermal carbonization can be used for wet materials ... -
Biochar from "Kon Tiki" flame curtain and other kilns: Effects of nutrient enrichment and kiln type on crop yield and soil chemistry
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)Biochar application to soils has been investigated as a means of improving soil fertility and mitigating climate change through soil carbon sequestration. In the present work, the invasive shrub "Eupatorium adenophorum" ... -
Biochar improves maize growth by alleviation of nutrient stress in a moderately acidic low-input Nepalese soil
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)We studied the role of biochar in improving soil fertility for maize production. The effects of biochar on the alleviation of three potential physical-chemical soil limitations for maize growth were investigated, i.e. water ... -
Biologiske prosesser i sedimenter – en litteraturstudie
(Bioforsk Rapport, Research report, 2006)På bakgrunn av St. meld. nr. 12 ”Rent og rikt hav”, hvor forurensede sedimenter i kyst og fjordområder fikk stor oppmerksomhet, er det nå planlagt en rekke tiltak langs norskekysten. Enkelte av tiltakene innebærer at ... -
Brief communication "Landslide Early Warning System: toolbox and general concepts"
(Journal article, 2013)We define landslide Early Warning Systems and present practical guidelines to assist end-users with limited experience in the design of landslide Early Warning Systems (EWSs). In particular, two flow chart-based tools ... -
Building damage due to vibration from rock blasting
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Construction activities such as blasting, piling, compaction, excavations, and construction traffic can produce vibrations of sufficient strength to cause damage to neighbouring buildings and structures. Therefore, many ... -
Building Deformation Caused by Tunneling: Centrifuge Modeling
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)This paper investigates the deformation of buildings due to tunneling-induced soil displacements. Centrifuge model tests of three-dimensionally (3D) printed building models subject to a plane-strain tunnel excavation in ... -
Building information modelling based ground modelling for tunnel projects – Tunnel Angath/Austria
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023) -
Building vibration induced by sonic boom - field test in Russia
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Infrasound and audible sound at very low frequency from sources such as military aircrafts, explosions and wind mills can induce building vibration involving both rattling and whole-body vibration strong enough to cause ... -
Burial and exhumation history controls on shale compaction and thermal maturity along the Norwegian North Sea basin margin areas
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The North Sea area has been subjected to significant erosion and subsequent deposition of sediments in the basin margin and deeper basin areas, respectively, during the late Neogene. A large amount of Cretaceous-early ... -
Calculation of maximum snow-avalanche run-out distance by use of digital terrain models.
(Journal article, 1989)This paper discusses how maximum snow-avalanche run-out distance may be calculated by a combination of topographic parameters and use of a digital terrain model. Digitized maps are being made for extensive areas of Norway. ... -
Calculation of snow avalanche runout distance.
(Journal article, 1983)Evaluation of the maximum runout distance of snow avalanches is one of the most important problems in avalanche zoning. It is also one of the most difficult and controversial subjects in avalanche research. This is especially ... -
Calculation of soil volume loss caused by drilling of anchors
(Lecture, 2023)Accurate prediction of ground settlements related to deep supported excavations or foundation works are key in risk assessments of vulnerability of neighboring assets. Several studies show that rotary percussive duplex ...
