Warm Middle Miocene Indian Ocean Bottom Water Temperatures: Comparison of Clumped Isotope and Mg/Ca‐Based Estimates
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The middle Miocene is an important analogue for potential future warm climates. However, few independent deep ocean temperature records exist, though these are important for climate model validation and estimates of changes ... -
Warmer and Wetter Winters over the high-latitude North Atlantic : an atmospheric circulation perspective
(Doctoral thesis, 2020-05-19)The high-latitude North Atlantic -especially the Svalbard archipelago and its surrounding seas - has undergone remarkable changes in the last half-century. These regions are recognized as a hotspot of the Arctic Amplification, ... -
Warming of Atlantic Water in two west Spitsbergen fjords over the last century (1912-2009)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013-05-06)The recently observed warming of west Spitsbergen fjords has led to anomalous sea-ice conditions and has implications for the marine ecosystem. We investigated long-term trends of maximum temperature of Atlantic Water (AW) ... -
«WARNING: GRAPHIC CONTENT» - En studie av krimjournalistikk på Snapchat
(Master thesis, 2022-05-31)Det groteske og skremmende har alltid fascinert publikum. Krimjournalistikken kan spores tilbake til 1500-tallet, og etterspørselen for krimsaker er kanskje større nå enn noensinne. Nå finner vi dessuten krimjournalistikk ... -
Was common Era glacier expansion in the Arctic Atlantic region triggered by unforced atmospheric cooling?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-08-05)The timing and causes of Common Era (CE) glacier growth in the Arctic Atlantic region remain elusive. There is mounting evidence of advances that predate the Little Ice Age (1250–1850 CE); this challenges the view that ... -
Wastage features of the inland ice sheet in central South Norway
(Journal article, 1980)Detailed field mapping of different lateral phenomena, striae, texture and till fabric are the basis of a reconstruction of five deglaciation phases in the east Jotunheimen-Gudbrandsdalen area, a landscape with moderate ... -
Watching, assessing, participating. Globalising political education in Norwegian upper secondary education.
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Transnational governance is expanding rapidly. From a political education perspective, an important question is to what extent and how this is included in the political universe that adolescents are being prepared for at ... -
Water & Power
(Master thesis, 2018-06-22)In this thesis, I attempt to explain the development of the international human right to water, and how this has affected opportunities for those that have their rights violated. As the right to water was elevated to an ... -
Water and Development: Good Governance after Neoliberalism
(CROP International Studies in Poverty Research, Book; Peer reviewed, 2015-09-15)Water has always been a crucial catalyst for human development. In Africa, competition among different sectors for this scarce resource remains a critical challenge to water managers and decision-makers. 'Water and ... -
Water choice in a low-income area in Kampala, Uganda
(Master thesis, 2004)The intention of this study is to elaborate on important factors determining choice of water in a low-income area in Kampala, Uganda. The study area is located in a parish called Nateete, at the outskirts of the city. My ... -
A water droplet-powered sensor based on charge transfer to a flow-through front surface electrode
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)A water droplet sensor based on a flow-through front surface electrode is demonstrated. It is shown that a triboelectric nanogenerator based on a metal-dielectric junction can be utilized to construct simple, self-powered ... -
"Water is life, Life is Water" - Environmental Engagements in Thailand
(Master thesis, 2020-08-13)Abstract In this thesis I aim to shed light on how environmental engagement can unfold in Thailand – in an authoritarian regime with insufficient waste management infrastructure and lack of well-organized environmental ... -
Water level fluctuations and the ecosystem functioning of lakes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-08-28)Hydrological regimes are key drivers of productivity and structure in freshwater ecosystems but are increasingly impacted by human activity. Using 17 published food web models of 13 African lakes as a case study, we explored ... -
Water mass exchange, pathways and the mesoscale eddy field in the Lofoten Basin of the Norwegian Sea
(Doctoral thesis, 2020-11-05)The Lofoten Basin situated in the Norwegian Sea, plays a central role in redistributing and modifying the warm Atlantic Water carried poleward with the Norwegian Atlantic Current. Increased residence time of the warm ... -
Water mass modification in an Arctic fjord through cross-shelf exchange: The seasonal hydrography of Kongsfjorden, Svalbard
(Journal article, 2005-12-08)Kongsfjorden and the West Spitsbergen Shelf is a region whose seasonal hydrography is dominated by the balance of Atlantic Water, Arctic waters, and glacial melt. Regional seasonality and the cross-shelf exchange processes ... -
Water mass modification over the continental shelf north of Ronne Ice Shelf, Antarctica
(Journal article, 2003-08-13)We use new data from the southern Weddell Sea continental shelf to describe water mass conversion processes in a formation region for cold and dense precursors of Antarctic Bottom Water. The cruises took place in early ... -
Water mass transformation and the North Atlantic Current in three multi-century climate model simulations
(Journal article, 2012-11)The warm and saline Subtropical Water carried by the North Atlantic Current undergoes substantial transformation on its way to higher latitudes as heat is released from ocean to atmosphere. The geographical distribution ... -
Water mass transformation in the Greenland Sea during the period 1986-2016
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-01)Hydrographic measurements from ships, autonomous profiling floats, and instrumented seals over the period 1986–2016 are used to examine the temporal variability in open-ocean convection in the Greenland Sea during winter. ... -
Water mass transformation in the Iceland Sea
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)The water mass transformation that takes place in the Iceland Sea during winter is investigated using historical hydrographic data and atmospheric reanalysis fields. Surface densities exceeding σθ ¼ 27:8 kg=m3, and hence ...
