Oil Spill Modeling in Sea Ice Covered Ocean
(Master thesis, 2021-06-01)The ongoing reduction in extent and thickness of sea ice in the Arctic allows the expansion of shipping activity and oil exploration in the high north, and with that a potential increased risk of oil spill in ice covered ... -
On the use of car observations to evaluate and improve road weather forecasting
(Master thesis, 2023-06-01) -
Overturning in the Nordic Seas from 2002 to 2017 in the Arctic Subpolar gyre sTate Estimate
(Master thesis, 2022-06-01)A data-constrained, medium-resolution coupled sea ice-ocean state estimate, the Arctic Subpolar gyre sTate Estimate, is evaluated in the Nordic Seas. The state estimate is dynamically and kinematically consistent, and has ... -
SFY: A free-drifting wave buoy for measuring surf waves
(Master thesis, 2023-06-01)Breaking waves have been studied for over a century. Still, there is an insufficient understanding of wave breaking due to limited in situ data. The high variability and the energetic environment in the surf zone makes it ... -
The Atmospheric Surface Layer over Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica
(Master thesis, 2019-06-28) -
The Effects of Diabatic Heating on the Paradigmatic LC1 and LC2 Baroclinic Lifecycles
(Master thesis, 2023-06-01)Extratropical cyclones play a crucial role in determining mid-latitude weather, where the atmosphere is on average inducive to baroclinic instability. Literature has identified two lifecycle behaviors, one that is predominantly ... -
Tidal forcing and internal tide energetics around Svalbard: a numerical study
(Master thesis, 2020-06-27)The hydrostatic and linear Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS) is used to examine the tidal forcing and the resulting baroclinic response and energetics of internal tides generated around Svalbard in the Arctic Ocean. ... -
Two-year moored records of dense-water production and flow through a gap in the Mid-Atlantic Ridge north of Iceland
(Master thesis, 2020-03-11) -
Understanding the dynamics of recent Norwegian extreme weather events and their influence on energy production
(Master thesis, 2021-08-05)The growing frequency and severity of extreme weather events in the Northern Hemisphere has prompted a lot of research being done on their origin and physical mechanisms. Both simplified and complex approaches have been ... -
Upper-ocean hydrography in the Eurasian Basin and its implication on sound speed
(Master thesis, 2022-08-15)The Polar Surface Water (PSW) and the Atlantic Water (AW) characteristics and their vertical extent are investigated using data from three moorings deployed in the Nansen Basin, north of Svalbard, under the Coordinated ... -
Using machine learning algorithms to enhance numerical weather prediction
(Master thesis, 2022-11-21)In this master thesis machine learning algorithms have been used in an effort to enhance numerical weather prediction. The learning algorithms used are random forest to provide a no precipitation/precipitation classification, ... -
Validation of precipitation forecasts from the AROME numerical weather prediction model in Norway
(Master thesis, 2022-11-21)High-quality precipitation forecasts are key to ensure the public and economic safety during severe precipitation events, and the process of validating these forecasts is a continuous effort. But with Norway's varied climate ... -
Vertical diffusivity and oxygen concentrations in a fjord basin - A case study of the deep basin in Masfjorden
(Master thesis, 2021-06-01)The basin layer in a sill fjord is isolated from the coast, and may become hypoxic or anoxic if the renewal frequency is low. Deep water renewals and vertical mixing are the physical processes which affects the oxygen ... -
Wave energy potential in the area of Sulafjorden and Breisundet
(Master thesis, 2020-04-07) -
Wave Measurements Using Ship Mounted Sensors as part of the One Ocean Expedition
(Master thesis, 2023-06-01)This thesis examines the design and post-processing aspects of wave measurements from ship mounted sensors. The wave measurements exhibit accuracy comparable to wave measuring drifters while offering enhanced spatial ...
