Climate History of the Arctic: temperature reconstruction of an arctic lake on Spitsbergen based on chironomid
(Master thesis, 2010-06-01)ABSTRACT. The increase in global climatic changes seen in recent years is debated to be a result from expanding anthropogenic activity. The aim for the study is to contribute to the climatic history at western Spitsbergen ... -
Climate in Svalbard 2100
(Research report, 2019-01)This report was commissioned by the Norwegian Environment Agency in order to provide basic information for use in climate change adaptation in Svalbard. It includes descriptions of historical, as well as projections for ... -
The Climate Response to Emissions Reductions Due to COVID-19: Initial Results From CovidMIP
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Many nations responded to the corona virus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic by restricting travel and other activities during 2020, resulting in temporarily reduced emissions of CO2, other greenhouse gases and ozone and ... -
Climate transition at the Eocene-Oligocene influenced by bathymetric changes to the Atlantic-Arctic oceanic gateways
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The Eocene–Oligocene Transition (∼33.9 Ma) marks the largest step transformation within the Cenozoic cooling trend and is characterized by a sudden growth of the Antarctic ice sheets, cooling of the interior ocean, and the ... -
Climate variability in the subarctic area for the last 2 millennia
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-01-25)To put recent climate change in perspective, it is necessary to extend the instrumental climate records with proxy data from paleoclimate archives. Arctic climate variability for the last 2 millennia has been investigated ... -
Climate warming causes life-history evolution in a model for Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014)Climate change influences the marine environment, with ocean warming being the foremost driving factor governing changes in the physiology and ecology of fish. At the individual level, increasing temperature influences ... -
Climate, glacial and vegetation history of the Polar Ural Mountains since early MIS 2 inferred from a 54-m-long sediment core from Lake Bolshoye Shuchye
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Because continuous and high-resolution records are scarce in the polar Urals, a multiproxy study was carried out on a 54 m long sediment succession (Co1321) from Lake Bolshoye Shchuchye. The sedimentological, geochemical, ... -
Climate-driven differences in growth performance of cohabitant fir and birch in a subalpine forest in Dhorpatan Nepal
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Himalayan Silver Fir (Abies spectabilis) and Himalayan Birch (Betula utilis) are tree species often found coexisting in sub-alpine forests of the Nepal Himalayas. To assess species-specific growth performances of these ... -
Climate-Driven Plant Response and Resilience on the Tibetan Plateau in Space and Time: A Review
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Climate change variation on a small scale may alter the underlying processes determining a pattern operating at large scale and vice versa. Plant response to climate change on individual plant levels on a fine scale tends ... -
Climate-Induced Evolution of the Behaviour and Life-History Strategies of Atlantic Cod (Gadus morhua). A Modelling Approach
(Doctoral thesis, 2015-08-21)Climate change influences the marine environment, with ocean warming being the foremost driving factor governing changes in the physiology and ecology of fish. At the individual level temperature can directly influence ... -
Climate–ecosystem modelling made easy: The Land Sites Platform
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Dynamic Global Vegetation Models (DGVMs) provide a state-of-the-art process-based approach to study the complex interplay between vegetation and its physical environment. For example, they help to predict how terrestrial ... -
Climatic and biogeographical drivers of functional diversity in the flora of the Canary Islands
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Aim Functional traits can help us to elucidate biogeographical and ecological processes driving assemblage structure. We analysed the functional diversity of plant species of different evolutionary origins across an island ... -
Climatic and environmental factors influencing occurrence and distribution of macroalgae – a fjord gradient revisited
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)During the last decades, trends of increasing sea water temperatures and precipitation have been observed in the North Atlantic. Increasing sea water temperatures are expected to have strong effects on coastal benthic ... -
Climatic mean and interannual variation of northern Barents Sea water mass distribution and circulation. A combined study of ROMS, current and hydrography observations
(Master thesis, 2008-06-02)Evaluating current measurements, hydrography observations and model (ROMS) results of the northern Barents Sea, water mass distribution and circulation is investigated. Water mass exchange with the Arctic Ocean is linked ... -
A climatic trigger for the giant Troll pockmark field in the northern North Sea
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-04)Pockmarks are seafloor craters usually formed during methane release on continental margins. However, the mechanisms behind their formation and dynamics remain elusive. Here we report detailed investigations on one of the ... -
Climatology of aerosol optical properties in Northern Norway and Svalbard
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-12-07)We present comparisons between estimates of the aerosol optical thickness and the °Angstr¨om exponent in Northern Norway and Svalbard based on data from AERONET stations at Andenes (69 ◦N, 16 ◦E, 379 m altitude) and Hornsund ... -
Climatology of polar lows impacting Norway
(Master thesis, 2016-06-01)Polar lows (PLs), mesoscale cyclones in high latitudes, impacting Norway are studied in this thesis. A climatology of PLs in the Nordic seas for the period 1979-2015 is made, by applying a cyclone detection and tracking ... -
Clinoform systems: Review and dynamic classification scheme for shorelines, subaqueous deltas, shelf edges and continental margins
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-10)Clinoforms are inclined and normally basinward-dipping horizons developed over a range of spatial and temporal scales in both siliciclastic and carbonatic systems. The study of clinoform successions underpins sequence ... -
Clique-Based Neural Associative Memories
(Doctoral thesis, 2021-11-15)Auto-associative memories store a set of patterns and retrieve them by resorting to a part of their contents. This thesis focuses on developing and extending a type of associative memories relying on a sort of coded neural ... -
