Understanding the effect of cover crops on soil health, soilborne pathogens, yield and quality of potatoes and root vegetables

En sunn jord opprettholder de fire hovedfunksjonene karbon- og næringsomsetning, jordstruktur og kontroll av planteskadegjørere. Disse jordfunksjonene er truet i intensivt landbruk, og det er behov for en dyrkingspraksis som sikrer god jordhelse for å opprettholde og optimalisere produksjonskapas...

Assessing impact of snow sublimation for hydropower production in Norway (SnowSub)

Hvor mye snø går tapt i løpet av en vintersesong på grunn av sublimasjon? Svaret på dette spørsmålet er spesielt viktig for vannkraftproduksjon siden snødekket er det største magasinet i mange vannkraftsystemer. Sublimasjon er prosessen når snøen (dvs. frossent vann) blir til vanndamp. Sublimas...

Timing and origin of Miocene flood volcanism on Spitsbergen: the Seidfjellet Formation revisited (RiS ID 12088)

Mantle-derived volcanism accompanied the Cenozoic lithosphere evolution of the NE Greenland and NW Barents Sea shelves during final separation of the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates. It is unclear, however, to what extent continental breakup was influenced by deep-sourced mantle plume...
