Research priorities

Norseng's academic work focuses primarily on the medieval trading history of Norway in connection with the legal, urban and regional history as well as the maritime cultural history of southern Norway. Since the beginning of the 2010s, Norseng has also devoted itself intensively to research into Norwegian natural ice production and the natural ice trade. From this research an international research project has grown up, directly financed by the Norwegian Research Council ( Norges forskningsråd ), which under the title "de siste istid / the last ice-age / die last Eiszeit" describes the history of the trade in natural ice but above all its dependency explored by climate change. The international partners in the project are the University of Hull in Great Britain and Old Dominion University in the USA.
