Environmental Taxation in Transport
(Journal article, 2016)Abstract For the purpose of providing public goods (e.g. air quality, congestion management and greenhouse gas mitigation), the transportation sector employs – and should employ – imperfect policy instruments, such as fuel ... -
Erfaringer og analyser fra drift av oppdrettsanlegg på eksponerte lokaliteter
(SINTEF Fiskeri og havbruk rapporter;A22528, Research report, 2012-03-29)Dette forprosjektet har hatt som mål å legge til rette for videreutvikling av forskningsrelaterte problemstillinger innen tema drift av eksponerte oppdrettslokaliteter. Eksponerte lokaliteter er her derfor å forstå som ... -
Erosion Dynamics of Cultivated Kelp, Saccharina latissima, and Implications for Environmental Management and Carbon Sequestration
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)A growing trend of interest for the cultivation of kelp is driven by predictions for high global demands of important commodities, which require the development of alternative supplies of natural resources. In this study ... -
Escape, discard and landing probability of Nephrops norvegicus in the Mediterranean Sea creel fishery
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Size selection in creel fishery consists of two processes: the first taking place in the creel on the seabed and the second made by the fisher on the vessel. However, no study has ever considered both processes when assessing ... -
Escape, discard, and landing probability in multispecies Mediterranean bottom-trawl fishery
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Commercial bycatch species and their exploitation pattern in the Mediterranean trawl fishery are little studied. The present work examines the overall size-selection pattern, both regarding the trawl in the sea and the ... -
EspyInsideFunction.jl-extracting intermediate results from numerical functions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)EspyInsideFunction allows to write software in the Julia programming language Julia (2017) [1] to make the value of variables within a function’s local scope — variables that are neither arguments nor return values, available ... -
Establishing a link between composition and toxicity of offshore produced waters using comprehensive analysis techniques – A way forward for discharge monitoring?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Extracts of produced waters from five mature Norwegian Sea oil fields were examined as total organic extracts (TOEs) and after fractionation into operationally-defined ‘polar’ and ‘apolar’ fractions. The TOEs and fractions ... -
Establishing a Method for Electrical Immobilization of Whitefish on Board Fishing Vessels
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)A downscaled version of an electrical dry stunner used in aquaculture has been adapted for use on fishing vessels to immobilize the catch (cod, haddock and saithe) shortly after capture to facilitate immediate and easy ... -
Estimating overall size-selection pattern in the bottom trawl fishery for four economically important fish species in the Mediterranean Sea
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The management of multispecies fisheries, such as the Mediterranean bottom trawl fishery, is always a challenge. However, information on gear selectivity and discards has been studied separately so far. In this paper, the ... -
Estimating the Physical Behaviour of Seine Ropes for Evaluating Demersal Seine Fishing Reporting on experiments in the flume tank
(SINTEF Fiskeri og havbruk;A26520, Research report, 2014-11-28)Demersal Seining is an active fishing method which is based on seine ropes and a seine net. The seine ropes and net are laid out on the fishing ground in a way that they encircle an aggregation of fish. Because the area ... -
Estimation of Directional Sea Spectra from Ship Motions in Sea Trials
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)This paper compares the skill of two algorithms that enable real-time estimation of the directional wave spectra exciting a ship from its measured motions. One algorithm consists of a nonlinear optimization of a parametric ... -
Estimation of fish catch potential using assimilation of synthetic measurements with an individual-based model
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)A large fraction of costs in wild fisheries are fuel related, and while much of the costs are related to gear used and stock targeted, search for fishing grounds also contributes to fuel costs. Lack of knowledge on the ... -
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. ... -
Estimation of top tensions in mooring lines by sensor fusion
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The paper describes a sensor fusion method that provides reliable, uninterrupted and bias-free estimates of the top tension in a mooring line. The method exploits the geometric nonlinearity of mooring systems installed in ... -
Etablering av driftsprofiler for fiskefartøy ved datalogging av sentrale driftsparametere - En metodebeskrivelse
(SINTEF rapport;SFH80 A083040., Research report, 2008-09-21)Rapporten beskriver en metode for etablering av driftsprofiler gjennom automatisk og kontinuerlig logging av sentrale drifts- og energiparametere i fiskefartøy. Det er foreslått at i alt 16 fiskefartøy (4 til 5 forskjellige ... -
European policies and legislation targeting ocean acidification in european waters - Current state
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-08)Ocean acidification (OA) is a global problem with profoundly negative environmental, social and economic consequences. From a governance perspective, there is a need to ensure a coordinated effort to directly address it. ... -
Evaluating off-bottom sweeps of a U.S. West Coast groundfish bottom trawl: Effects on catch efficiency and seafloor interactions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-05)In the U.S. West Coast groundfish bottom trawl fishery, lengthy sweeps (>85 m) that maintain seafloor contact are traditionally used. While these sweeps are effective at herding groundfishes, their bottom tending characteristics ... -
Evaluation of an autonomous, short sea shipping feeder-loop service through advanced simulations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Traditionally, container-freight being shipped from central Europe to the coast of Norway has been transported either by road, or by larger containerships to central ports. For the past 3 years the AEGIS consortium has ... -
Evaluation of cold thermal energy storage in fishing vessels
(Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2022)Depending on the operational mode, fishing vessels and fish transporting well-boats have varying cooling demands. There is a possible benefit of peak shaving and energy saving with the use of cold thermal energy storage ... -
