Atmospheric-driven state transfer of shore-fast ice in the northeastern Kara Sea

Divine, Dmitry; Korsnes, Reinert; Makshtas, Alexander; Godtliebsen, Fred; Svendsen, Harald (Journal article, 2005-09-21)

Frequencies of observed occurrences of shore-fast ice in the northeastern Kara Sea for each month during 1953–1990 reveal a multimodality of shore-fast ice extent in late winter and spring. The fast ice extent exhibits ...
Direct measurements of the mean flow and eddy kinetic energy structure of the upper ocean circuletion in the NE Atlantic

Knutsen, Øyvind; Svendsen, Harald; Østerhus, Svein; Rossby, Tom; Hansen, Bogi (Journal article, 2005-07-19)

The upper ocean circulation in the sub-polar northeast Atlantic has been a challenge to quantify due to strong and variable wind-forcing, and strong and variable deep currents that lead to large uncertainties in the use ...
Water mass modification in an Arctic fjord through cross-shelf exchange: The seasonal hydrography of Kongsfjorden, Svalbard

Cottier, Finlo; Tverberg, Vigdis; Inall, Mark; Svendsen, Harald; Nilsen, Frank; Griffiths, Colin (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 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 ...
