Simulated and projected relationship between the East Asian winter monsoon and winter Arctic Oscillation in CMIP5 models
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)Interdecadal change in the relationship between the East Asian winter monsoon (EAWM) and the Arctic Oscillation (AO) has been documented by many studies. This study, utilizing the model outputs from phase 5 of the Coupled ... -
Simulated Mass, Heat and Freshwater Budgets of the Artic Mediterranean - Present and Future
(Master thesis, 2004)The majority of recent climate forecast studies suggest a dramatic thinning of the Arctic multi year ice and eventually the disappearing of all summer ice within just a few decades. Moreover, in the maritime Arctic a large ... -
Simulated North Atlantic-Nordic Seas water mass exchanges in an isopycnic coordinate OGCM
(Journal article, 2003-05-29)The variability in the volume exchanges between the North Atlantic and the Nordic Seas during the last 50 years is investigated using a synoptic forced, global version of the Miami Isopycnic Coordinate Ocean Model (MICOM). ... -
Simulated variability of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation
(Journal article, 2004-04-17)To examine the multi-annual to decadal scale variability of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), a four-member ensemble with a daily reanalysis forced, medium-resolution global version of the isopycnic ... -
Simulating climate with a synchronization-based supermodel
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-12)The SPEEDO global climate model (an atmosphere model coupled to a land and an ocean/sea-ice model with about 250.000 degrees of freedom) is used to investigate the merits of a new multi-model ensemble approach to the climate ... -
Simulating particle organic matter dispersal beneath Atlantic salmon fish farms using different resuspension approaches
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-10-08)An accurate representation of the particle organic matter (POM) footprint is necessary in order to effectively predict impacts upon benthic communities and the risk of excessive organic enrichment beneath aquaculture ... -
Simulating the circulation in the Mozambique Channel by use of a numerical ocean model
(Master thesis, 2006-05)The circulation in the Mozambique Channel for the year 2002 has been studied through model results from the Regional Oceanic Modeling System (ROMS). The model has been run with both adaptive boundary conditions and values ... -
Simulating transport of non-Chernobyl 137Cs and 90Sr in the North Atlantic–Arctic region
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2004)The spatial and temporal distributions of the anthropogenic radionuclides 137Cs and 90Sr, originating from nuclear bomb testing and the Sellafield reprocessing plants in the Irish Sea, are simulated using a global version ... -
Simulations of the Bergen orographic wind shelter
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013-10-10)Even though the coast of western Norway is very windy, the centre of Bergen is rather calm. To gain further understanding of this wind shelter, we study the flow in the complex topography of Bergen during two south-westerly ... -
Simulations of the Effect of Integrated Metal Nanoparticles on the Optical Absorptance of Perovskite Photovoltaic Solar Cells
(Master thesis, 2018-09-08)The negative effects from the use of fossil fuels that are evident in the ongoing climate change and pollution challenges necessitates a shift from fossil fuels to renewable energy technologies. The most promising of these ... -
Simulert Dynamisk Atmosfærerespons til Endringer i Arktisk Sjøisdekke

Single CO2 drops in seawater
(Master thesis, 2004)To mitigate the increasing atmospheric CO2 level and reduce the subsequent impacts, storage of CO2 is one option that might become necessary. Ocean storage and storage of CO2 under the sea bottom with potential leakage ... -
Skier stability index - An additional tool for snow avalanche forecasting in Norway?
(Master thesis, 2018-06-16)With more people running to the mountains for skiing backcountry terrain, the need for a good snow avalanche forecast is dire. Todays forecast is based on the weather forecast, snow observations by professional observers ... -
Skilful decadal-scale prediction of fish habitat and distribution shifts
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Many fish and marine organisms are responding to our planet’s changing climate by shifting their distribution. Such shifts can drive international conflicts and are highly problematic for the communities and businesses ... -
Skilful prediction of cod stocks in the North and Barents Sea a decade in advance
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Reliable information about the future state of the ocean and fish stocks is necessary for informed decision-making by fisheries scientists, managers and the industry. However, decadal regional ocean climate and fish stock ... -
Skillful prediction of Barents Sea ice cover
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-07-08)A main concern of present climate change is the Arctic sea ice cover. In wintertime, its observed variability is largely carried by the Barents Sea. Here we propose and evaluate a simple quantitative and prognostic framework ... -
Skillful prediction of northern climate provided by the ocean
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-06-20)It is commonly understood that a potential for skillful climate prediction resides in the ocean. It nevertheless remains unresolved to what extent variable ocean heat is imprinted on the atmosphere to realize its predictive ... -
Small-scale dynamics of the under-ice boundary layer
(Doctoral thesis, 2009-01-09)In ice covered polar regions, the interaction between ocean, ice and atmosphere is an important component in the complex climate system. Exchange of heat, mass and momentum occurs across the boundary layers, both in the ... -
Small-scale turbulence dynamics under sea surface gravity waves
(Doctoral thesis, 2014-08-20)The ocean surface is a complex boundary where air-sea fluxes of mass, momentum and energy take place. The processes at this dynamic interface are of great importance in the coupled atmosphere-ocean system. The coupling ... -
