    • Climate change and the migratory pattern for Norwegian spring-spawning herring : implications for management 

      Sissener, Elin Helene; Bjørndal, Trond (Working Paper, Working paper, 2004-04)
      Norwegian spring-spawning herring (Clupea harengus) has been an important source of food for centuries, mainly for Norway, Iceland and Russia, but also for other European countries. Herring is a migratory fish stock, and ...
    • Climate change, poverty and food security : the role of the small-scale fisheries sector 

      Singh, Balbir; Steinshamn, Stein Ivar (Working Paper, Working paper, 2005-12)
      Coastal small scale fisheries and communities in the developing countries are vulnerable to global climate change. The consequences occur directly due to the impact of rising temperatures on movement of fish resources and ...
    • Climate policy and the international steam coal demand 

      Mæstad, Ottar (Report, Research report, 2003-11)
      This paper analyses the impact of climate policies on the international steam coal demand, focussing particularly on Western Europe and Japan. Steam coal consumption is heavily concentrated on a few industry sectors (power ...
    • Climate policy and the steel industry : achieving global emission reductions by an incomplete climate agreement 

      Mathiesen, Lars; Mæstad, Ottar (Working Paper, Working paper, 2002-11)
      The steel industry is one of the largest sources of global CO2 emissions and hence a candidate for climate policies. A carbon tax on emissions in industrialized countries, however, will cause relocation of steel production ...
    • Climate, competition and the management of shared fish stocks 

      Miller, Kathleen; Munro, Gordon R.; Bjørndal, Trond (Working Paper, Working paper, 2004-07)
      Long-term climate regime shifts have profound impacts on ocean temperature and circulation patterns, and on the dynamics of fish populations. Climate regime shifts can disrupt otherwise satisfactory international management ...

      Golombek, Rolf; Kittelsen, Sverre A.C.; Mæstad, Ottar (Working Paper, Working paper, 2005-12)
      Europe and Japan are among the main importers of coal. Climate policies following the Kyoto agreement are creating pressure to substitute away from coal and turn to less emission intensive energy sources. At the same time, ...
