Calculating Bayesian model evidence for porous-media flow using a multilevel estimator
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)We consider calculation of the Bayesian model evidence, which is an essential component in realistic uncertainty quantification. The main motivation is large-scale porous-media-flow problems, where plain Monte-Carlo (MC) ... -
Calibration of Thixotropic and Viscoelastic Shear-Thinning Fluids Using Pipe Rheometer Measurements
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Some non-Newtonian fluids have time-dependent rheological properties like a shear stress that depends on the shear history or a stress overshoot that is a function of the resting time, when fluid movement is started. The ... -
Can adults with cerebral palsy perform and benefit from ballistic strength training to improve walking outcomes? A mixed methods feasibility study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background Power bursts of hips and ankle plantar flexors are prerequisites to walking propulsion. However, these power bursts are reduced during gait for persons with cerebral palsy (CP) and mainly in the ankle plantar ... -
Can structural enrichment reduce predation mortality and increase recaptures of hatchery‐reared Atlantic salmon Salmo salar L. fry released into the wild?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Captive‐reared fish often have poor survival in the wild and may fail to boost threatened populations. Enrichment during the nursery period can in some circumstances generate a broader behavioural repertoire than conventional ... -
Can the sustainable development goals harness the means and the manner of transformation?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The 17 sustainable development goals and their 169 targets comprise a comprehensive list of prerequisites for human and planetary well-being, but they also implicitly invoke many of the very trade-offs, synergies, and ... -

Can we use ice sheet reconstructions to constrain meltwater for deglacial simulations?
(Journal article, 2012)Freshwater pulses from melting ice sheets are thought to be important for driving deglacial climate variability. This study investigates challenges in simulating and understanding deglacial climate evolution within this ... -
Capital rationing and business cycles in the Norwegian petroleum industry
(Research report, 2020)We analyse business cycles of oil and gas investment on the Norwegian continental shelf. Investment declined steeply from 2014 until 2017, following business cycle-induced cost increase and a subsequent dramatic drop in ... -
Capital, Inequality, and Volunteering: A Bourdieusian Perspective
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)In this paper, I adopt Pierre Bourdieu's theoretical and methodological framework to investigate patterns of inequality in volunteering fields and practices in Norway. Multiple correspondence analyses of national survey ... -
Carbon capture and storage - Publics in five countries around the north sea prefer to do it on their own territory
(Research report, 2023)Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) has been identified as an essential part of the lowest-cost path toward reaching the goals of the Paris Agreement. In Europe, an accelerated pace of CCS development indicates that a CO2 ... -
Carbon cycle feedbacks in an idealized simulation and a scenario simulation of negative emissions in CMIP6 Earth system models
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Limiting global warming to well below 2 ∘C by the end of the century is an ambitious target that requires immediate and unprecedented emission reductions. In the absence of sufficient near-term mitigation, this target will ... -
Carbonate compensation depth drives abyssal biogeography in the northeast Pacific
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Abyssal seafloor communities cover more than 60% of Earth’s surface. Despite their great size, abyssal plains extend across modest environmental gradients compared to other marine ecosystems. However, little is known about ... -
Case study on optimal design and operation of detached house energy system: Solar, battery, and ground source heat pump
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Government policy impacts the level of sustainability for which houseowners design and operate their energy system. Consequently, there is a need to consider the sustainability level resulting from different policies, ... -
The causal effect of workload on labour supply of older employees
(Working paper; 6-2017, Working paper, 2017-12)Several policies are implemented to keep older workers in the labour force, but little is known about their effects. We investigate the effects of a particular program: at the age of 55, Norwegian teachers’ workload is ... -
Causal oceanic feedbacks onto the winter NAO
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Of the climate variability patterns that influence the weather in the North Atlantic region in winter, the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) is the most dominant. The effects of the NAO span from cold air outbreaks to ... -
Causes of bias and uncertainty in fracture network analysis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Fault and fracture networks are analysed to determine the deformation history and to help with such applications as engineering geology and fluidflow modelling. These analyses rely on quantifying such factors as length, ... -
Cement properties characterization from a section retrieved from an oil production well after 33 years of downhole exposure
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)A unique data set has been constructed based on the study of class G cement recovered from an oil well on the Norwegian continental shelf. The cement was placed between two casing sections and submitted to downhole conditions ... -
Centennial relationships between ocean temperature and Atlantic puffin production reveal shifting decennial trends
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The current warming of the oceans has been shown to have detrimental effects for a number of species. An understanding of the underlying mechanisms may be hampered by the non-linearity and non-stationarity of the relationships ... -
The Challenge of Coordination in Central Government Organizations
(5-2007, Working paper, 2007-10)This paper addresses the coordination problems in central government by focusing on the Norwegian case. The main research questions are: What are the experiences of civil servants concerning the main aspects of coordination ... -
Challenges and effects of administrative reform - Reorganizing the Norwegian welfare administration
(Working Paper, Working paper, 2008-08)This paper addresses the effects and implications of one of the largest public-sector reforms in recent Norwegian administrative history. The reform is a merger of the employment and national insurance administrations in ...
