• Driving Mechanisms of an Extreme Winter Sea Ice Breakup Event in the Beaufort Sea 

      Davy, Richard; Olason, Einar; Rampal, Pierre; Spensberger, Clemens; Williams, Timothy; Korosov, Anton; Spengler, Thomas; Rheinlænder, Jonathan W. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      The thick multiyear sea ice that once covered large parts of the Arctic is increasingly being replaced by thinner and weaker first-year ice, making it more vulnerable to breakup by winds. We use the neXtSIM sea ice model ...
    • Knowledge Gaps and Impact of Future Satellite Missions to Facilitate Monitoring of Changes in the Arctic Ocean 

      Lucas, Sylvain; Johannessen, Johnny Andre; Cancet, Mathilde; Pettersson, Lasse H; Esau, Igor; Rheinlænder, Jonathan Winfield; Ardhuin, Fabrice; Chapron, Bertrand; Korosov, Anton; Collard, Fabrice; Herlédan, Sylvain; Olason, Einar; Ferrari, Ramiro; Fouchet, Ergane; Donlon, Craig (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      Polar-orbiting satellite observations are of fundamental importance to explore the main scientific challenges in the Arctic Ocean, as they provide information on bio-geo-physical variables with a denser spatial and temporal ...
    • Operational algorithm for ice–water classification on dual-polarized RADARSAT-2 images 

      Zakhvatkina, Natalia; Korosov, Anton; Muckenhuber, Stefan; Sandven, Stein; Babiker, Mohamed (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-01-11)
      Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data from RADARSAT-2 (RS2) in dual-polarization mode provide additional information for discriminating sea ice and open water compared to single-polarization data. We have developed an automatic ...
    • Sea ice cover in Isfjorden and Hornsund, Svalbard (2000–2014) from remote sensing data 

      Muckenhuber, Stefan; Nilsen, Frank; Korosov, Anton; Sandven, Stein (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-01-19)
      A satellite database including 16 555 satellite images and ice charts displaying the area of Isfjorden, Hornsund, and the Svalbard region has been established with focus on the time period 2000–2014. 3319 manual interpretations ...
    • Twenty-One Years of Phytoplankton Bloom Phenology in the Barents, Norwegian, and North Seas 

      Silva, Edson; Counillon, François; Brajard, Julien; Korosov, Anton; Pettersson, Lasse H; Samuelsen, Annette; Keenlyside, Noel (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Phytoplankton blooms provide biomass to the marine trophic web, contribute to the carbon removal from the atmosphere and can be deadly when associated with harmful species. This points to the need to understand the phenology ...
