• Effects of an Arctic under-ice bloom on solar radiant heating of the water column 

      Taskjelle, Torbjørn; Granskog, Mats A.; Pavlov, Alexey K.; Hudson, Stephen R.; Hamre, Børge (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-01)
      The deposition of solar energy in the upper Arctic Ocean depends, among other things, on the composition of the water column. During the N-ICE2015 expedition, a drift in the Arctic pack ice north of Svalbard, an under-ice ...

(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-01-19)
      The Arctic icescape is rapidly transforming from a thicker multiyear ice cover to a thinner and largely seasonal first-year ice cover with significant consequences for Arctic primary production. One critical challenge is ...
    • Modelling alongshore flow in a semi-enclosed lagoon strongly forced by tides and waves 

      Taskjelle, Torbjørn; Barthel, Knut; Christensen, Kai Håkon; Furaca, Noca; Gammelsrød, Tor; Hoguane, Antonio Mubango; Nharreluga, Bilardo (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-09-26)
      Alongshore flows strongly driven by tides and waves is studied in the context of a one-dimensional numerical model. Observations from field surveys performed in a semi-enclosed lagoon (1.7 km×0.2 km) outside Xai-Xai, ...
    • The seeding of ice algal blooms in Arctic pack ice: The multiyear ice seed repository hypothesis 

      Olsen, Lasse Mork; Laney, Samuel R.; Duarte, Pedro; Kauko, Hanna M.; Fernández-Méndez, Mar; Mundy, Christopher John; Rösel, Anja; Meyer, Amelie; Itkin, Polona; Cohen, Lana; Peeken, Ilka; Tatarek, Agnieszka; Róźańska-Pluta, Magdalena; Wiktor, Josef; Taskjelle, Torbjørn; Pavlov, Alexey; Hudson, Stephen R.; Granskog, Mats A.; Hop, Haakon; Assmy, Philipp (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-07)
      During the Norwegian young sea ICE expedition (N-ICE2015) from January to June 2015 the pack ice in the Arctic Ocean north of Svalbard was studied during four drifts between 83° and 80°N. This pack ice consisted of a mix ...
    • Spectral albedo and transmittance of thin young Arctic sea ice 

      Taskjelle, Torbjørn; Hudson, Stephen R.; Granskog, Mats A.; Nicolaus, Marcel; Lei, Ruibo; Gerland, Sebastian; Stamnes, Jakob J.; Hamre, Børge (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-01)
      Spectral albedo and transmittance in the range 400–900nm were measured on three separate dates on less than 15 cm thick new Arctic sea ice growing on Kongsfjorden, Svalbard at 78:9°N, 11:9°E. Inherent optical properties, ...
