Have a look at our course portfolio for spring 2022!
Starting a new international project in the middle of the covid-19 pandemic, has meant almost a year of digital meetings for the partners of the CULTIVATE project. In the beginning of March 2022, we finally managed to get together for an in-person meeting in the beautiful Třeboň Basin to discuss next steps.
We are excited to announce a new PhD position based at the Department of Archaeology, History, Cultural ´óÏó´«Ã½ and Religion. The succesful candidate will be part of CeSAM and follow up on the enthological research that has been done during the LindÃ¥s project in the 1970s.
February 21-22 the original model areas of the Lindås project were revisited after 50 years, in preparation for an upcoming re-sampling to assess the rate and direction of land-use change, nature’s benefit to people and landscape multifunctionality.
Our post-doc Natalya Gallo, and Master`s students Carl Bukowski and Sigrid Kjeldstad were out in the fjords on board RV Kristine Bonnevie last week.
Publishing data and articles is one of the most important things a researcher does. It is then very important that your publications get noticed and used in further science – and that often means cited.
In 2021, we announced our first ‘CeSAM’s Fast-Track Initiative’ grants. We had many strong applications, of which four received funding.
It is essential to examine whether the mathematical description of marine food webs reflect the ecosystems they represent. A new proposal is integrating multiple mathematical disciplines and this requires collaboration on an international front.
How and where does nature add value to our lives? In this new study, PhD candidate Jarrod Cusens engaged local communities to understand the spatial distribution of people's values for nature in The Nordhordland Biosphere Reserve; Norway’s first UNESCO Biosphere Reserve established in 2019.
CeSAM and UiB were well represented this year at Arendalsuka, the political festival held in Arendal every summer.

In a new publication where researchers at SLRC have contributed, is 13081 protein-coded genes from the Atlantic sea lice annotated.
"I believe that we have a duty as research scientists to appropriately communicate the global efforts to understand plastic and microplastic pollution," says Amy Lusher, researcher of Environmental Contaminants at NIVA, and at the Department of Biological Sciences at UiB.
