On the Relation between Thermohaline Anomalies and Water Mass Transformation in the Eastern Subpolar North Atlantic
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Decadal thermohaline anomalies carried northward by the North Atlantic Current are an important source of predictability in the North Atlantic region. Here, we investigate whether these thermohaline anomalies influence ... -
Wave Modulation in a Strong Tidal Current and Its Impact on Extreme Waves
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Accurate estimates of extreme waves are central for maritime activities, and stochastic wave models are the best option available for practical applications. However, the way currents influence the statistics of space–time ... -
The Cumulative Effect of Wintertime Weather Systems on the Ocean Mixed-Layer Stable Isotope Composition in the Iceland and Greenland Seas
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)The Iceland and Greenland Seas are characterized by strong heat fluxes from the ocean to the atmosphere during wintertime. Here we characterize the atmospheric signal of this strong evaporation in terms of water vapor ... -
NORA-Surge: A storm surge hindcast for the Norwegian Sea, the North Sea and the Barents Sea
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Knowledge about statistics for water level variations along the coast due to storm surge is important for the utilization of the coastal zone. An open and freely available storm surge hindcast archive covering the coast ... -
Three Forcing Mechanisms of Freshwater Transport in Fram Strait
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Fram Strait is one of the main gateways for fresh water leaving the Arctic Ocean toward the deep-water formation regions of the North Atlantic. Monitoring transport through Fram Strait is important to quantify the impact ... -
Holistic evaluation of the environmental impacts of shipping in the sensitive region of Ria de Aveiro
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Shipping activity can be a substantial source of pollution and impact on the environment, including air, water and ecosystems, as well as adverse health and climatic effects. Due to the distribution of maritime transport ... -
On the short-term response of entrained air bubbles in the upper ocean: a case study in the north Adriatic Sea
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Air bubbles in the upper ocean are generated mainly by waves breaking at the air–sea interface. As such, after the waves break, entrained air bubbles evolve in the form of plumes in the turbulent flow, exchange gas with ... -
Profiling the stable isotope signature of water vapour from kinetic fractionation in Arctic conditions
(Doctoral thesis, 2025-04-11)Med den nåværende nedgangen i den arktiske havisen er det forventet at Arktis vil oppleve en isfri sommer før århundret er omme, og det er forventet at den lokale arktiske vannsyklusen vil bli forstyrret i et omfang som ... -
Impacts of Local and Remote SST Warming on Summer Circulation Changes in the Western North Pacific
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)This study explores how future SST warming in remote ocean basins may affect the western North Pacific (WNP) wet season climate by applying a high-resolution atmospheric general circulation model to conduct a series of ... -
On the use of feed-forward neural networks in the context of surrogate aeroelastic simulations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2025)For a few decades now, the proliferation of digital computers has driven the development of increasingly complex models to study the physical phenomena that are part of our reality. Particularly, in the field of aeronautics ... -
A Review of the Interactions between Tropical Cyclones and Environmental Vertical Wind Shear
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Tropical cyclone (TC) structure and intensity are strongly modulated by interactions with deep-layer vertical wind shear (VWS)—the vector difference between horizontal winds at 200 and 850 hPa. This paper presents a ... -
Influence of mid-latitude sea surface temperature fronts on the atmospheric water cycle and storm track activity
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)The climatological mean enhancement of the turbulent air–sea heat exchange along mid-latitude sea surface temperature (SST) fronts that anchor mid-latitude storm tracks suggests its crucial role in the atmospheric water ... -
Development and application of a mesh generator intended for unsteady vortex-lattice method simulations of wind turbines and wind farms
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)In the last decades, the unsteady vortex-lattice method (UVLM) has gained a lot of acceptance to study large onshore–offshore wind turbines (WTs). Furthermore, and due to the development of more powerful computers, ... -
Nonlinear dynamic analysis of shear- and torsion-free rods using isogeometric discretization and outlier removal
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)In this paper, we present a discrete formulation of nonlinear shear- and torsion-free rods introduced by Gebhardt and Romero (Acta Mechanica 232(10):3825–3847, 2021) that uses isogeometric discretization and robust time ... -
Delivering an Improved Framework for the New Generation of CMIP6-Driven EURO-CORDEX Regional Climate Simulations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)The Coordinated Regional Downscaling Experiment (CORDEX) is a coordinated international activity that has produced ensembles of regional climate simulations with domains that cover all land areas of the world. These ensembles ... -
Evaporative controls on Antarctic precipitation: an ECHAM6 model study using innovative water tracer diagnostics
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Improving our understanding of the controls on Antarctic precipitation is critical for gaining insights into past and future polar and global environmental changes. Here we develop innovative water tracing diagnostics in ... -
