Coordinating access to top class research infrastructures is the aim of a new platform about to be carried out by a pan-European team of aquaculture research facilities. The project, titled AQUAEXCEL (‘Aquaculture Infrastructures for Excellence in...
People with dementia is a large diagnostic group among the users of municipal care. The disorder causes most years with severe functional impairment at the end of life, and requires huge resources from the municipal nursing and care services.
ACCESS will evaluate climatic impacts in the Arctic on marine transportation (including tourism), fisheries, marine mammals and the extraction of hydrocarbons for the next 20 years; with particular attention to environmental sensitivities and...
The project offers Europe a fast track evolution towards Smart Grids dissemination and deployment in the distributed electricity grid.
The NanoPV project aims at making a breakthrough step-change in photo-voltaics by the removal of a set of bottlenecks which have been identified to block the application of nanostructures for high-efficiency, low-cost solar cells. The bottlenecks...
The pilot project will form the basis for better decisions on investments in - and research needs for - the production of salmon in closed systems. At the same time it is expected that the knowledge summary will contribute to a fact-based debate...
The objective of the SOPHIA project is to strengthen and optimise research capabilities, mainly by coordinating efforts on important but precompetitive issues. Large research infrastructures working together will avoid the useless replication of a...
Ministry of Fisheries and Coastal Affairs has initiated a study to look at the potential for increased added value in salmon and trout industry. The study will look at how value creation in the Norwegian aquaculture industry can be increased by...
Although the increased proportion of female managers is one of the few bright spots, a study shows that the gender-segregated labor market in the years 1990-2010 is characterised by continuity rather than change. The survey shows that the proportion...
Man statistics and analysis of local variation.
The main purpose has been to contribute towards lessons learned and provide recommendations for the industry in order to reduce the likelihood of a similar accident to occur in the Norwegian petroleum activity.
Does the current regime work? Follow-up, dialogue, reporting, controls and sanctions.
The project is a collaboration between several Norwegian and international research institutions and cod fish farmers. The goal is to identify chemical and microbiological characteristics and molecular mechanisms for the successful metamorphosis of...
The project aims to improve environmental conditions in connection with the spawning and hatching of wrasse eggs, using multiple anti-fouling coatings on spawning mats.
The SALMODIS-project addresses decisions on sustainable disease control strategies in salmon farming. Decision makers in government and industry need knowledge and methods to evaluate the constraints and cost-effectiveness of control strategies...
NORDICCS is a virtual carbon capture and storage (CCS) networking platform aiming for increased CCS deployment in the five Nordic countries. The success of NORDICCS is dependent on active involvement from industrial partners.
The project will look at the possible consequences of more free selection in fishing gear within the pelagic sector and in the cod sector. There shall in particular be considered whether a more free selection in fishing gear represents an efficiency...
Algal blooms are natural phenomena that are dependent on favourable environmental conditions. For the aquaculture industry it is important to have knowledge of the algal situation at any time in relation to risk assessment and risk reduction in daily...
