Norwegian Journal of Entomology

Norwegian Journal of Entomology is a science topic covered in the lgStudy science library. This page brings together a partial reference excerpt, illustrations, worked examples, real-world applications and a short study plan, so you can understand Norwegian Journal of Entomology rather than just read about it. In short: The Norwegian Journal of Entomology is a biannual peer-reviewed scientific journal covering entomology, and arthropodology more in general, with an emphasis on Norway. It was established in 1920 as the Norsk Entomologisk Tidsskrift, obtaining its current title in 1974.

Key takeaways

Norwegian Journal of Entomology belongs to science; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect Norwegian Journal of Entomology to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
Reproduce the core statement of Norwegian Journal of Entomology from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

The Norwegian Journal of Entomology is a biannual peer-reviewed scientific journal covering entomology, and arthropodology more in general, with an emphasis on Norway. It was established in 1920 as the Norsk Entomologisk Tidsskrift, obtaining its current title in 1974. From 1979 to 1998 it was published under the name Fauna Norvegica Serie B. The journal is published by the Norwegian Entomological Society and the editor-in-chief is Øivind Gammelmo.

History The first issue of the journal appeared in 1921 under the name Norsk Entomologisk Tidsskrift. The first issue bore the year 1920 as the year of publication, but it was not printed until May 1921. From 1921 to 1975, 21 volumes of the journal were published; some volumes were released over several years, whereas others came out at shorter intervals. In 1975 the journal's name was changed to Norwegian Journal of Entomology in order to attract a broader international readership. The journal was published with one volume per year and consisted of two issues. Eventually there was difficulty financing the journal. The Norwegian Research Council for Science and the Humanities (NAVF) withdrew its support for the journal in 1979. An application for support for a new combined national zoology journal was sent to the NAVF. The new journal was a collaboration between the Norwegian Zoological Society and the Norwegian Ornithological Society. The first issue appeared in 1979 and the name of the journal was Fauna Norvegica Serie B (Series B was for arthropods, Series A was for zoology, and Series C was for ornithology). In 1993, the NAVF withdrew its support for the journal, but the Norwegian Institute for Nature Research (NINA) took over responsibility. However, for financial reasons, NINA also terminated the agreement in 1998, and the journal's further existence was jeopardized. The journal was able to continue publication in 1999, now under the aegis of the Norwegian Entomological Society, thanks to support from the Norwegian Ministry of the Environment. The journal's name was changed once more, back to its previously English name, Norwegian Journal of Entomology.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Norwegian Journal of Entomology

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Norwegian Journal of Entomology claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Norwegian Journal of Entomology before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Norwegian Journal of Entomology ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Norwegian Journal of Entomology

In research: Norwegian Journal of Entomology appears in science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Norwegian Journal of Entomology in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Norwegian Journal of Entomology is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics Academic journals established in 1921, Academic journals of Norway, Academic journals published by learned and professional societies, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Norwegian Journal of Entomology outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
