Hydrography, circulation, and response to atmospheric forcing in the vicinity of the central Getz Ice Shelf, Amundsen Sea, Antarctica
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Ice shelves in the Amundsen Sea are thinning rapidly as ocean currents bring warm water into the cavities beneath the floating ice. Although the reported melt rates for the Getz Ice Shelf are comparatively low for the ... -
Hydrography, transport and mixing of the West Spitsbergen Current: the Svalbard Branch in summer 2015
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-12-21)Measurements of ocean currents, stratification and microstructure were made in August 2015, northwest of Svalbard, downstream of the Atlantic inflow in Fram Strait in the Arctic Ocean. Observations in three sections are ... -
Hydrological Modelling of Ethiopian Watersheds : The Application of Hydrological Models for Flow Forecasting and Analysis of Sensitivity to Climate and Landuse Changes
(Doctoral thesis, 2019-10-15)Hydrological modelling studies vary depending on the purpose, data availability and number of outputs required. Quantifying the hydrological responses to various human- and climate-induced changes requires different modelling ... -
Hydropower Production Scheduling using Stochastisc Dual Dynamic Programming subject to environmental constraints
(Master thesis, 2019-06-22)Oppgaven utforsker vannkraftproduksjonsplanlegging i Bergsdalen vassdraget, styrt av BKK, ved hjelp av Stokastisk Dual Dynamisk Programmering. Systemet er under et sett med miljørestriksjoner, innført av NVE, som utfordrer ... -
Hyperheuristic Frameworks for Combinatorial Optimization Problems using Deep Reinforcement Learning
(Master thesis, 2024-06-17)Many metaheuristic frameworks exist for solving different combinatorial optimization problems. Despite formulating general strategies that can be applied to many problems, they often rely on problem-specific implementation. ... -
Ice and brine production in Hornsund
(Master thesis, 2015-06-02)The Hornsund fjord system has been studied using observations of the atmosphere, ocean and sea ice, and two different types of models. The study documents significant year to year variability in sea ice formation and brine ... -
The ice front as a topographic barrier for ocean heat transport
(Doctoral thesis, 2021-06-28)Antarctic ice shelves are the link between the Southern Ocean and the Antarctic Ice Sheet. The floating ice shelves restrain the seaward flow of the grounded ice, which is balanced by iceberg calving and ocean-induced basal ... -
Ice shelf water overflow and bottom water formation in the southern Weddell Sea
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2004-02-17)Cold shelf waters flowing out of the Filchner Depression in the southern Weddell Sea make a significant contribution to the production of Weddell Sea Bottom Water (WSBW), a precursor to Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW). We ... -
The Iceland Greenland seas project
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The Iceland Greenland Seas Project (IGP) is a coordinated atmosphere–ocean research program investigating climate processes in the source region of the densest waters of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation. ... -
The Iceland-Faroe Slope Jet: a conduit for dense water toward the Faroe Bank Channel overflow
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Dense water from the Nordic Seas passes through the Faroe Bank Channel and supplies the lower limb of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, a critical component of the climate system. Yet, the upstream pathways ... -
The Iceland–Faroe inflow of Atlantic water to the Nordic Seas
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2003-12)The flow of Atlantic water between Iceland and the Faroe Islands is one of three current branches flowing from the Atlantic Ocean into the Nordic Seas across the Greenland–Scotland Ridge. By the heat that it carries along, ... -
Idealized Modeling of the North Icelandic Jet
(Master thesis, 2023-06-01)The North Icelandic Jet (NIJ) is a crucial component of the lower limb of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, supplying one-third to one-half of the overflow water transport through Denmark Strait, including ... -
Identifying major drivers of daily streamflow from large-scale atmospheric circulation with machine learning
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Previous studies linking large-scale atmospheric circulation and river flow with traditional machine learning techniques have predominantly explored monthly, seasonal or annual streamflow modelling for applications in ... -
Identifying quasi-periodic variability using multivariate empirical mode decomposition: a case of the tropical Pacific
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)A variety of statistical tools have been used in climate science to gain a better understanding of the climate system's variability on various temporal and spatial scales. However, these tools are mostly linear, stationary, ... -
Ignition of high-pressure hydrogen releases – Experimental study of impinging and non-impinging releases through a fast-acting valve, with and without a burst disc downstream of the valve
(Master thesis, 2021-09-14)A wide consensus of climate research indicates that anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions affect the climate and causes the global mean temperature to rise compared to preindustrial levels. International treaties such as ... -
The Impact of a Reduced High-Wind Charnock Parameter on Wave Growth With Application to the North Sea, the Norwegian Sea, and the Arctic Ocean
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)As atmospheric models move to higher resolution and resolve smaller scales, the maximum modeled wind speed also tends to increase. Wave models tuned to coarser wind fields tend to overestimate the wave growth under strong ... -
Impact of Arctic sea ice variations on winter temperature anomalies in northern hemispheric land areas
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-07-30)Coordinated numerical ensemble experiments with six different state-of-the-art atmosphere models have been used in order to evaluate the respective impact of the observed Arctic sea ice and sea surface temperature (SST) ... -
The impact of assimilating data from a remotely piloted aircraft on simulations of weak-wind orographic flow
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Orographic winds near a 914 m high mountain in Southwest-Iceland are explored using unique observations made aloft with a small remotely piloted aircraft, as well as with traditional observations and high-resolution ... -
Impact of Assimilation of Radiosonde and UAV Observations from the Southern Ocean in the Polar WRF Model
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Weather forecasting in the Southern Ocean and Antarctica is a challenge above all due to the rarity of observations to be assimilated in numerical weather prediction (NWP) models. As observations are expensive and logistically ... -
