Towards cost‐effective biofouling management in salmon aquaculture: a strategic outlook
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-08-30)Biofouling is an ongoing challenge for marine salmon aquaculture, impacting farming operations, fish health and welfare. Current mitigation strategies employed in Norway and Scotland rely mainly on the use of antifouling ... -
Biofouling on salmon pen nets and cleaner fish shelters does not harbor planktonic stages of sea lice
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-09-01)The objective of the current study was to determine the extent to which planktonic sea lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis Krøyer, 1838 and Caligus elongatus Nordmann, 1832) were present in the biofouling on open-sea net pens ... -
Norwegian Emergency Towing Service – Past – Present and Future
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-03)The Norwegian Coastal Administration (NCA) is an agency of the Norwegian Ministry of Transport and Communications, and is responsible for services related to maritime safety, maritime infrastructure, transport planning and ... -
Identifikasjon av plastpellets i forbindelse med aksjon Trans Carrier - Sammenligning av prøver fra felt med kildeprøve
(SINTEF Ocean rapporter;OC2020 A-103, Research report, 2020-08-25)Prøver av plastpellets fra totalt ni feltlokasjoner ble analysert med pyrolyse koblet til gasskromatografi og massespektrometri (GC-MS), og sammenlignet med tilsvarende analyse av kildeprøven av pellets beslaglagt på Trans ... -
Microplastic dispersal behavior in a novel overhead stirring aqueous exposure system
(Others, 2020-08)Using nominal dose metrics to describe exposure conditions in laboratory-based microplastic uptake and effects studies may not adequately represent the true exposure to the organisms in the test system, making data ... -
Convergence of Ensemble Simulations for Environmental Risk Assessment
(Chapter, 2016-06)Ensemble simulations of oil fate and transport for a hypothetical oil spill, sometimes referred to as "stochastic simulations", are frequently used for environmental risk assessment related to offshore operations. In this ... -
Climate Change and Fate of Arctic Oil Spills
(Chapter, 2016-06)To investigate how the fate of oil released in the Arctic Ocean may change with a warmer climate, we have performed ensembles of oil spill simulations using Arctic environmental information (winds, currents, ice cover, ... -
Visund Sør condensate and Visund crude oil– Weathering properties and behaviour at sea - In relation to oil spill response - OC2020 A-110
(SINTEF Ocean rapporter;OC2020 A-110 - O, Research report, 2020-09-02)A weathering study has been conducted on Visund Sør condensate and Visund crude oil. The weathering study is based on a small-scale laboratory testing at 13 °C. The SINTEF Oil Weathering Model (OWM was used to predict the ... -
The influences of phytoplankton species, mineral particles and concentrations of dispersed oil on the formation and fate of marine oil-related aggregates
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-01-15)The formation and fallout of oil-related marine snow have been associated with interactions between dispersed oil and small marine particles, like phytoplankton and mineral particles. In these studies, the influences of ... -
Fate and behaviour of weathered oil drifting into sea ice, using a novel wave and current flume
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-10)Increased knowledge about the fate and behaviour of weathered oil in different sea ice conditions is essential for our ability to model oil spill trajectories in ice more precisely and for oil spill response decision making ... -
Analyser av flammepunkt og helsefarlige forbindelser for oljeemulsjoner i kystnær beredskap
(SINTEF Ocean rapporter;OC2020 A-077, Research report, 2020-08-27)Flammepunkt og tilstedeværelse av helsefarlige forbindelser i headspace i tank har blitt vurdert for flere råoljer på norsk sokkel i kontekst av oppsamling av oljeemulsjon på fartøyer i kystnær beredskap. Flammepunkt har ... -
Modelling biodegradation of crude oil components at low temperatures
(Others, 2020-09)For oil spilled at sea, the main weathering processes are evaporation, emulsification, photo-oxidation, dispersion and biodegradation. Of these, only biodegradation may completely remove hydrocarbons from the environment ... -
A comparison of different wave modelling techniques in an open-source hydrodynamic framework
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-07-16)Modern design for marine and coastal activities places increasing focus on numerical simulations. Several numerical wave models have been developed in the past few decades with various techniques and assumptions. Those ... -
Estimation of tank-to-wheel efficiency functions based on type approval data
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-10-15)The representation of tank-to-wheel efficiency is for many modelling purposes simplified to a constant value. However, the relationship between tank-to-wheel efficiency and operational properties is not necessarily constant. ... -
Combined effects of exposure to engineered silver nanoparticles and the water-soluble fraction of crude oil in the marine copepod Calanus finmarchicus
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-10)While it is likely that ENPs may occur together with other contaminants in nature, the combined effects of exposure to both ENPs and environmental contaminants are not studied sufficiently. In this study, we investigated ... -
