An existing laboratory procedure for selenium analysis using open-vessel wet digestion and liquid chromatographic fluorescence determination was modified for use with microwave digestion. The proposed microwave digestion method eliminated the hazards associated with the use of HCIO4 while maintaining excellent recoveries of selenium. A 2-step HNO3/H2O2 digestion procedure was developed. Digested samples were derivatized with 2,3-diaminonaphthalene, and the resultant piazselenol complex was measured fluorometrically using a liquid chromatograph. Measured values were in agreement with 9 different certified reference materials. The detection limit for this method was 0.54 ng Se/g tissue (3 s), and the calibration curve remained linear (r2 = 0.9968) up to 2 mg Se/g.

River floods may cause considerable damage. Water management strategies intend tomoderate or mitigate the severe effects of extreme discharge events. In this context,techniques for the detection and attribution of changes is of crucial importance. Extremeflood events seem to occur more frequently in recent decades in central Europe.It is anticipated that climate change and weather regime shifts may contribute to this...

The invasive ladybird, Harmonia axyridis Pallas 1773, is recorded for the first time in Norway. The specimen was found on horticultural plants imported from Aalsmeer in the Netherlands to Oslo, Norway. H. axyridis originates from East-Asia. The species is known to be a voracious predator on aphids and has been extensively used as a biological control agent in both North America and Europe. The later years, however, a number of negative impacts on the environment and biodiversity have been reported. The species was assessed as a potential bio-control agent for use in Norwegian greenhouses in 2001. The outcome of the assessment was negative with respect to import and commercial use in Norway. It was concluded that H. axyridis might survive and become established outdoors and thereby pose a risk to the environment. Recent experiences from the UK have shown that H. axyridis compasses several of the traits characterizing a successful invasive alien species. The record of this species in Norway may only be the first in a number of such, as it is likely that this species will survive outdoors, at least in the southern parts of Norway.

Gjenlegg til økologisk engsvingelfrøeng bør sås samtidig med dekkveksten. Ni dagers utsettelse av såinga (til etter ugrasharving) førte til mer ugras (bl.a. balderbrå) og 11% reduksjon i frøavlinga i første engår. Virkningen av ulike dekkvekster varierte fra felt til felt, men i middel ble det oppnådd større frøavling ved gjenlegg uten dekkvekst eller i grønnfôr av bygg/ert, sammenlikna med gjenlegg i bygg, vårhvete eller erter til modning.

Varmere vintre med flere dager med minimumstemperaturer over 0 °C vil paradoksalt nok kunne føre til en økning i frostskader på skog. Slike varme perioder vil redusere trærnes herdighet og toleranse for påfølgende frost. Klimaendringer kan på denne måten føre til en økning i omfanget av vinterog vårfrostskader, særlig i innlandet, samt en økning i klimatiske sviskader på gran i kyststrøkene i Sørøst-Norge.

A multi-source forest inventory (MSFI) method has been developed for use in the Norwegian National Forest Inventory (NFI). The method is based on a k-nearest neighbour rule and uses field plots from the NFI, land cover maps, and satellite image data from Landsat Thematic Mapper. The inventory method is used to produce maps of selected forest variables and to estimate the selected forest variables for large areas such as municipalities. In this study, focus has been on the qualitative variables ‘dominating species group\" and ‘development class\" because these variables are of central interest to forest managers. A mid-summer Landsat 5 TM scene was used as image data, and all NFI plots inside the scene were used as a reference dataset. The relationship between the spectral bands and the forest variables was analysed, and it was found that the levels of association were low. A leave-one-out method based on the reference dataset was used to estimate the pixel-level accuracies. They were found to be relatively low with 63% agreement for species groups. An independent control survey was available for a municipality and estimates from the MSFI were compared to it. The levels of error were quite high. It was concluded that the large area estimates were biased by the reference dataset.
