NORKLIMA-Klimaendringer og konsekvenser for Norge

Magnitude and impact of Arctic climate change inferred from aquatic ecosystems

Global warming is expected to be more extreme in the Arctic than in temperate regions. However, the amplitude, the rate of warming, and the impact of the warming can only be predicted with a quantity of uncertainty. We will investigate the climate history of Svalbard, Arctic Norway and Bylot Isl...

HAVBRUKS-Havbruk - en næring i vekst

New tools for optimising quality and performance management for Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) reared in cyclic environments

A restricted feeding regime does not only improve the feed conversion factor and reduce the cost of feed; it also has a positive effect on the flesh quality. The increased muscle quality using a restrictive feeding regime is associated with a higher muscl e fibre density, and an enhanced texture ...
