...production, meeting both rising consumption and the need to replace fossil-based energy. The HydroSun Competence project, led by the Institute for Energy Technology (IFE) and funded by the Norwegian Research Council, aims to support the rapid, cost-efficient, and sustainable development of renewable energy...

...of frozen mackerel is an important component in respect of food safety and quality for the export from Norway to Japan. Vital processes in the cold chain were identified in respect of the flow of goods through processing, storage and transport. RFID combined with temperature sensors was regarded as one...

...developed methods and software, RIFLEX/SIMO/SIMA to look into the feasibilities of different floating tunnel/bridge design concepts. The global hydroelastic responses of two concepts, i.e. tether/pontoon supported hybrid tunnel concept and floating foundation supported girder concept and have been investigated...

Green water (water-on-deck) and subsequent wave impact is a strongly non-linear, random and complex phenomenon that represents an important factor to be considered in the design of moored vessels and vessels in transit. The Santos Basin, in southeast Brazil, is a new frontier for deep water oil production...

...(69°45.26′N/019°02.18′E) and in Mid-Norway (63°42.28′N/08°52.23′E). Kelp fronds at each farm were individually followed throughout the growing season. Sectional regression was applied for conversion of measured frond lengths to estimated dry weights. The study shows that between 40 and 100% of all individuals...

...prepare the progeny for conditions that theymay encounter as larvae, juveniles, and/or adults. Here, we give examples on how knock-on effects oftemperature and predator cues can affect phenotypes offish, amphibians, and reptiles. Such effects arebest described in reptiles, but are generally widespread...

...natural stocks and provide a stable production of good quality eggs and larvae. To support this, high quality eggs containing the necessary building blocks to support high fertilization success, development into a normal embryo and high hatching success is needed. Ova from wild-caught and captive lumpfish...
