Eulerian CFD Model of Direct Absorption Solar Collector with Nanofluid
(Master thesis, 2019-12-13)Solar energy is the most promising source of renewable energy. However, the solar energy harvesting process has relatively low efficiency, while the use of solar energy is challenging. Direct Absorption Solar Collectors ... -
Eurasian Cooling Linked to the Vertical Distribution of Arctic Warming
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Observations show that deep Arctic winter warming, extending from surface to mid‐troposphere, has concurred with below‐average temperature over central Eurasia. Modeling studies focusing on the response to Arctic sea ice ... -
Eurasian Ice Sheet collapse was a major source of Meltwater Pulse 1A 14,600 years ago
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Rapid sea-level rise caused by the collapse of large ice sheets is a threat to human societies. In the last deglacial period, the rate of global sea-level rise peaked at more than 4 cm yr−1 during Meltwater Pulse 1A, which ... -
The European Climate Research Alliance (ECRA): Collaboration from bottom-up
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-01-17)The European Climate Research Alliance (ECRA) is an association of leading European research institutions in the field of climate research (http://www.ecra-climate.eu/, last access: 6 December 2018). ECRA is a bottom-up ... -
The European Forest Plant Species List (EuForPlant): Concept and applications
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Question When evaluating forests in terms of their biodiversity, distinctiveness and naturalness, the affinity of the constituent species to forests is a crucial parameter. Here we ask to what extent are vascular plant ... -
The European gravity field and steady-state ocean circulation explorer satellite mission: its impact on geophysics
(Journal article, 2003-07)Current knowledge of the Earth’s gravity field and its geoid, as derived from various observing techniques and sources, is incomplete. Within a reasonable time, substantial improvement will come by exploiting new approaches ... -
European summer temperatures since Roman times
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)The spatial context is critical when assessing present-day climate anomalies, attributing them to potential forcings and making statements regarding their frequency and severity in a long-term perspective. Recent international ... -
European warm-season temperature and hydroclimate since 850 CE
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The long-term relationship between temperature and hydroclimate has remained uncertain due to the short length of instrumental measurements and inconsistent results from climate model simulations. This lack of understanding ... -
Evaluating balanced section restoration with thermochronology data: A case study from the Central Pyrenees
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-05-06)We present a new method that can be used to quantitatively evaluate the consistency between balanced section restorations and thermochronological data sets from orogenic belts. We have applied our method to a crustal-scale ... -
Evaluating effort regulation in mixed fisheries: a Monte Carlo approach
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)This paper evaluates whether effort regulation could achieve the goal of protecting low-abundance species in mixed fisheries. We construct a two-species bio-economic model and compare the stock abundance ratio in the end ... -
Evaluating Impacts of Recent Arctic Sea Ice Loss on the Northern Hemisphere Winter Climate Change
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Wide disagreement among individual modeling studies has contributed to a debate on the role of recent sea ice loss in the Arctic amplification of global warming and the Siberian wintertime cooling trend. We perform coordinated ... -
Evaluating primary (cry1Ab) and secondary effects (deoxynivalenol) of GM maize when fed to zebrafish (Danio rerio). Investigating growth, intestinal mRNA and white blood cell differentiation
(Master thesis, 2012-06-01)Several of the plants which are currently being used in fish feed in Norway today, are being genetically modified (GM) around the world. The use of GM plants is increasing worldwide, and whether these are safe to use in ... -
Evaluating tertiary water based EOR methods on the Veslefrikk field, with emphasis on analyzing sodium silicate injection by numerical simulation
(Master thesis, 2009-04-29)The applicability of some water based EOR methods was evaluated for the Veslefrikk field. Diversion of injection water, by injection of sodium silicate, was regarded as having an EOR potential. This was analyzed by numerical ... -
Evaluating the biological pump efficiency of the Last Glacial Maximum ocean using δ13C
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Although both physical and biological marine changes are required to explain the 100 ppm lower atmospheric pCO2 of the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM, ∼21 ka) as compared to preindustrial (PI) times, their exact contributions ... -
Evaluating the large-scale hydrological cycle response within the Pliocene Model Intercomparison Project Phase 2 (PlioMIP2) ensemble
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)The mid-Pliocene (∼3 Ma) is one of the most recent warm periods with high CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere and resulting high temperatures, and it is often cited as an analog for near-term future climate change. Here, ... -
Evaluating the leeway coefficient of ocean drifters using operational marine environmental prediction systems
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The water following characteristics of six different drifter types are investigated using two different operational marine environmental prediction systems: one produced by Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) and ... -
Evaluating the price of tiny kinetic mixing
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)We consider both “bottom-up” and “top-down” approaches to the origin of gauge kinetic mixing. We focus on the possibilities for obtaining kinetic mixings ϵ which are consistent with experimental constraints and are much ... -
Evaluating the quality of Controlled Meteorological Balloons in Arctic air mass transformation over the Nordic Seas
(Master thesis, 2023-06-01)In situ measurements from Controlled Meteorological (CMET) balloons are used to study Arctic air mass transformation in marine cold air outbreaks (mCAOs) over the Nordic Seas. 6 CMET balloons were launched from Ny- ̊Alesund ... -
Evaluating the Representation of Community Colleges in Biology Education Research Publications following a Call to Action
