Water mass transformation in the Iceland Sea: Contrasting two winters separated by four decades
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Dense water masses formed in the Nordic Seas flow across the Greenland–Scotland Ridge and contribute substantially to the lower limb of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation. Originally considered an important ... -
Water mass transformations and air-sea exchange in the Barents Sea
(Doctoral thesis, 2011-09-22)Water mass transformation processes in the Barents Sea and their interannual to decadal variability are studied using a regional coupled ice-ocean model and observational data. Long-term data allows for assessment of ... -
Water mass transformations in the Barents Sea and linkages to the Polar Front
(Doctoral thesis, 2010-10-29) -
Water masses constrain the distribution of deep-sea sponges in the North Atlantic Ocean and Nordic Seas
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Water masses are bodies of water with distinctive physical and biogeochemical properties. They impart vertical structure to the deep ocean, participate in circulation, and can be traced over great distances, potentially ... -
Water Migration in the Subduction Mantle Wedge: A Two-Phase Flow Approach
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Subduction zones are the main entry points of water into Earth's mantle and play an important role in the global water cycle. The progressive release of water by metamorphic dehydration induces important physical‐chemical ... -
Water renewal in a threshold fjord: A simulation study of submerged fresh water discharge
(Master thesis, 2018-12-15)Threshold fjords are characterized by low concentrations of oxygen in the depths of the basin, caused by weak and/or infrequent exchange of the basin water. A three-dimensional ocean model, The Bergen Ocean Model (BOM), ... -
Water shutoff and conformance improvement: an introduction
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)This paper provides an introduction to the topic of water shutoff and conformance improvement. After indicating the volumes of water produced during oilfield operations, a strategy is provided for attacking excess water ... -
Water temperature and dietary histidine affect cataract formation in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) diploid and triploid yearling smolt
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-09)The aim of the present study was to investigate cataract development in diploid (2N) and triploid (3N) Atlantic salmon smolts and post-smolts at two water temperatures (10 and 16 °C) given diets with different histidine ... -
Water-Accelerated Decomposition of Olefin Metathesis Catalysts
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Water is ubiquitous in olefin metathesis, at levels ranging from contaminant to cosolvent. It is also non-benign. Water-promoted catalyst decomposition competes with metathesis, even for “robust” ruthenium catalysts. ... -
Waterflood Efficiency and Single-Phase Flow Properties of Carbonate Porous Media
(Doctoral thesis, 2009-12-17) -
Waterside convection and stratification control methane spreading in supersaturated Arctic fjords (Spitsbergen)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Seasonally ice covered in the past, the fjords in West Spitsbergen turn into being perennially ice free in the present. This feedback to Arctic amplification of global warming changes gas fluxes at the atmosphere-ocean ... -
Wave and wind conditions in the Red Sea. A numerical study using a third generation wave model
(Master thesis, 2010-06-01)In order to understand how waves behave and how other parameters can interact between ocean and atmosphere we can use a numerical model. For the Red Sea basin wave measurements are absent and due to that a WAM wave model ... -
Wave breaking in KdV equations with higher nonlinearity
(Master thesis, 2023-05-31)The undular bore is a wave propagating in shallow water, often resulting from tidal forces that cause a slight change in the wave heights. Favre (1935) did a physical experiment where an undular bore was created and he ... -
Wave breaking in long wave models and undular bores
(Master thesis, 2015-12-18)Bores are a well known phenomena in fluid mechanics, although their occurrence in nature is relatively rare. The circumstances in which they occur is usually when a tidal swell causes a difference in surface elevation in ... -
Wave breaking in the BBM-equation

Wave Breaking in Undular Bores with Shear Flows
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)It is well known that weak hydraulic jumps and bores develop a growing number of surface oscillations behind the bore front. Defining the bore strength as the ratio of the head of the undular bore to the undisturbed depth, ... -
Wave energy potential in the area of Sulafjorden and Breisundet
(Master thesis, 2020-04-07) -
Wave Extremes in the Northeast Atlantic
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-03)The objective of this study is to compute 100-yr return value estimates of significant wave height using a new hindcast developed by the Norwegian Meteorological Institute. This regional hindcast covers the northeast ... -
Wave loads on ocean infrastructure increase as a result of waves passing over abrupt depth transitions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Abrupt changes in water depth are known to lead to abnormal free-surface wave statistics. The present study considers whether this translates into abnormal loads on offshore infrastructure. A fully non-linear numerical ... -
Wave Measurements Using Ship Mounted Sensors as part of the One Ocean Expedition
(Master thesis, 2023-06-01)This thesis examines the design and post-processing aspects of wave measurements from ship mounted sensors. The wave measurements exhibit accuracy comparable to wave measuring drifters while offering enhanced spatial ...
