Overall the activities in 2011 have developed satisfactorily and in accordance with the project schedule. The wildlife and power-line corridor subproject is focusing the moose habitat use of the clear-felled area beneath a selected transmission-line section in Bangdalen, Nord-Trøndelag County. Existing...

...new opportunities for studying electricity consumption patterns. Measurement of end-uses on appliance level remains however to be very time consuming and expensive, so the possibility to model segmented end-use demand based on metering of total electricity consumption is essential. The paper presents...

LNG infrastructures and gas pipeline projects, by using data relating to projects whose financial close occurred between June 2004 and March 2011. Most results are consistent with the basic view of risk-averse funds suppliers. Especially, the projects located in risky countries and larger projects tend...

...of carbon capture and storage (CCS) in the power sector and main industrial sectors in Europe. In particular, we aim to achieve a deeper understanding of the distribution of capture by country and key sector (power, steel, cement and refinery), as well as the associated transport and storage infrastructure...

...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...
