title: Influx of Atlantic Water from the Nordic Seas to the Arctic Ocean During the Late Glacial and the Holocene, 2012

description: The data presented is derived from “Influx of Atlantic Water from the Nordic Seas to the Arctic Ocean during the late glacial and the Holocene, 2012”. Trace element analysis on foraminferal calcite enabled reconstruction of past water mass properties and marine environments under the axis of Atlantic water transported from the Nordic Seas to the Arctic Ocean during the late glacial and holocene.The reconstruction made it possible to study natural variations in the temperature of the Atlantic Water in the Norwegian Current, North Cape Current, and West Spitsbergen Current during the late glacial and Holocene. The possible effects of meltwater from the Barents-Svalbard Ice Sheet on the influx of Atlantic Water during the late glacial, were also studied. The research compared natural late glacial and Holocene variations in the Norwegian Current, North Cape Current and West Spitsbergen Current to the Irminger and East Greenland currents.

title: AAL - Game-Based Mobility Training and Motivation of Senior Citizens, 2015

description: Mobility problems are very common for elderly people, and a low self-efficacy (people's belief in their own competence) leads to reduced mobility and higher risk of falling that can ultimately lead to lower mobility, reduced quality of life and limitations in everyday activities and social participation. This is a vicious circle since physical exercise is important to maintain mobility and reduce risk of falling. In Norway we have long winters with roads covered with snow and ice, which makes the situation even worse. In GameUp, we will apply technologies that have been shown to be effectual computing. We will use these technologies to promote mobility by encouraging elderly persons to be more physical active and motivating them to move more by increasing their self-efficacy. We will develop a platform for social and exercise games to reduce physical and motivational barriers of elderly people's mobility. Using low cost motion sensors, we will develop exercise games designed to enhance mobility. Motivational games will provide personalized information and motivational tips adapted to the individual user's unique physical and cognitive situation. The platform will be developed using easy-to-use commercial modules and products (e.g. TV set-top-box5, Android Tablets, motion sensors) in order to facilitate bringing the idea to the market shortly after the project is finished. The project both has a strategy for service and business models. Norway is represented with research, business and user partners, and are leading two out of five work packages; 'Ecosystem of mobility games' and 'Dissemination and exploitation'.

The dataset is from face-to-face interviews and observations of elderly citizens participated with input concerning user focused design and provided feedback on usability and user interface customized for seriors. 

The games are not available from NSD or for the general public at the time of this report.

title: ADMAR Adaptive Management of Living Marine Resources by Integrating Different Data Sources, 2012

description: The Norwegian Ocean Resource Act "Havressursloven" of 2009 is a formal implementation of the Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries. This requires explicit management action towards both data rich and data poor stocks, including those of minor commercial importance. The overall goal of this project is to enhance knowledge of ecosystem functioning and to derive a framework for operational adaptive management. Progress in two directions is required: First, models demand a high level of realism. Different data sources (survey data, fisheries statistics, life history traits, multi species considerations etc.) and error structures must be integrated to derive key parameters and time-series. Further development of stock assessment models by quantifying uncertainties is paramount. Secondly, development of better biological models, which incorporate food-web interactions providing a basic understanding of the ecosystem functioning. Size-based models will be developed to model multi-species dynamics parsimoniously, describing the essential ecological processes that are particularly useful in data-poor situations. We will derive Harvest Control Rules (HCR) for exploited stocks to study the outcome of different harvesting scenarios under varying amounts of information, and to see how a reduction in information affects the most robust HCR. We will also consider different ecological scenarios, where species interactions change within and among species over the course of harvesting and environmental changes. Given these operational models, we will derive a model framework providing scientifically sound advice given the level and quality of the available information. The proposed project will contribute to fundamental science and its application for sustainable management of marine resources.

title: Link Between Diarrhea and Dengue: Fecal Contamination and Dengue Mosquito Production in Household Water, 2014

description: Diarrheal diseases and dengue fever are major global health problems resulting in millions of deaths every year and billions of people live in risk areas. In the Southeast Asian region both diseases are prevalent and infection rates are high. In communities where provision of clean water is inadequate, storage of water for domestic use is crucial. Fecal contamination of stored water is a common source of diarrhea. Stored water is also a potential breeding site for dengue mosquitoes. Little is known of the role of stored household water for the dual risk of diarrhea and dengue. The aim of this interdisciplinary project is to assess health risks associated with household water storage by identifying relationships between household water management, contaminated drinking water, and mosquito production in household water containers. The project will identify water management practices and key vector producing container types, quantify fecal contamination and its effect on mosquito production. Results will assist in development of integrated disease control strategies appropriate for the Southeast Asian region. 
The expected outputs of the project are: 
1) Household water management practices in selected study communities identified; 
2) Key container types i dentified from which the majority of Aedes aegypti emerge; 
3) Total coliforms and E. coli detected and quantified in water stored in domestic containers; and 
4) Relationship between coliform contamination of drinking water and mosquito production in house hold storage containers identified and quantified.

title: Causes and Consequences of Fluctuating Selection in a Stochastic Environment, 2015

description: In this project we will quantitatively examine the contribution of fluctuating selection at different ages and random drift to evolutionary changes of quantitative characters in house sparrows. We will achieve this by parameterizing stochastic age-specific selection models to predict the effects of fluctuating environments on the distribution of phenotypic characters both in time and space in a house sparrow metapopulation and by evaluating how the strength of selection is affected by experimental evaluations of the distribution of phenotypes. Based on these results we will provide a mechanistic understanding for how fluctuations in the environment can produce long-term changes in fitness-related quantitative traits.

The data consists of eight tables in SQLformat and a log file for the number of rows.

title: Teacher evaluation as a tool the professional development of teachers and student teachers, 2015

description: Teacher evaluation is a phenomenon and a practice that has become more relevant in both the Norwegian and the international educational debate in recent years. Teacher evaluation can be used as part of expertise development and therefore as a tool for better practice and professional practice. The overall objective of the research project, which this pilot project will lead to, is to strengthen research contributions to the education sector's future use of teacher assessment as a tool.
There are three objectives this pilot project aims to realize.
Objective 1: Supplementing this knowledge overview by including "gray literature" regarding this field (which is extensive) and incorporate research before 2009 (which is considerable) and research from 2014 into an overall overview of knowledge about teacher assessment.
Objective 2: Building an international network of leading researchers and establish a collaboration core of what will later will be referred to as an innovation project. One of the most important prerequisites for teacher assessment be able to help develop schools as learning organizations, contribute to teachers' 'professional development, and have a positive effect on pupils' learning and development, is that teachers trust the scheme (Working Committee, 2014)
Objective 3: Try different types of teacher assessment (survey among students, systematic observations and possibly “school walking”) among student teachers and teachers in their first year of practice.

title: Patients` Responses to Postponement of Surgery, 2000.

description: The basis for the survey is to gain an understanding of patients' experience of being removed from an operating schedule. Removal from operating schedules is a major problem in health care, especially since patients are affected so directly. The survey was conducted by the surgical department, the Regional Hospital in Rogaland, where 8.4% of the operated patients in 1999 experienced being removed from their scheduled operation. Through understanding the experience of being removed from an operating schedule, we can take steps to prevent damages experienced by the patient whether they see it as trivial or "a catastrophe".

title: Citizen Survey 2015, citizens part

description: Citizen Survey is one of the largest user surveys of the civil service in Norway. It provides a better knowledge base for assessing performance of public services across sectors and provide insights that can help to develop the public sector in the long term. Citizen Survey says something about how satisfied residents and users are with their municipality and with the major services / activities of the government. The survey results provide greater insight into user perceptions of businesses in the areas of education and culture, health care and government agencies. Citizen Survey 2015 comprises a innbyggerdel and user part. The citizen part is answered by residents with and without user experience while the user part is only answered by them with user experience of 23 different businesses. The questions in our user section is specifically aimed at measuring usage and experience with various aspects of the business and the employees. The questions in 2013 divided into these categories: - Total Satisfaction and Confidence - Availability and physical conditions - Employee service - Employee competence - Information and communication - Digital services - Procedural and complaints File review:: NSD2223-1 - Citizen part NSD2223-2-24: User part (see list below) NSD2223-2 - Kindergarten NSD2223-3 - The Norwegian Church NSD2223-4 - Regular GP NSD2223-5 - Public library NSD2223-6 - Primary school NSD2223-7 - Health clinic NSD2223-8 - Domestic Helper NSD2223-9 - Home nursing NSD2223-10 - University College NSD2223-11 - Emergency NSD2223-12 - The Norwegian State Educational Loan Fund NSD2223-13 - The Norwegian Labour and Welfare Administration (NAV) NSD2223-14 - Sheltered accommodation NSD2223-15 - Planning and Construction Office NSD2223-16 - Police NSD2223-17 - Norwegian Tax Administration NSD2223-18 - school-based extra-curricular activities (SFO) NSD2223-19 - Norwegian Public Roads Administration NSD2223-20 - Nursing NSD2223-21 - Hospital NSD2223-22 - Customs NSD2223-23 - University NSD2223-24 - High School
