Analysis of the vertical temperature structure in the Bergen valley, Norway, and its connection to pollution episodes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-09)The vertical temperature profile in the lowest 1000m of the atmosphere determines a number of important physical processes and meteorological phenomena such as high concentrations of anthropogenic air pollutants in urban ... -
Analysis of tidal currents in the North Sea from shipboard acoustic Doppler current profiler data
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-01-12)North Sea tidal currents are determined by applying harmonic analysis to ship-borne acoustic Doppler current profiler data recorded from 1999 to 2016, covering large areas of the northern North Sea. Direct current measurement ... -
Analysis of turbulence models fitted to site, and their impact on the response of a bottom-fixed wind turbine
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)This study compares a wind field recommended by the wind turbine design standards to more realistic wind fields based on measurements. The widely used Mann spectral tensor model with inputs recommended by the standard, is ... -
Annual carbon fluxes in the upper Greenland Sea based on measurements and a box-model approach
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2000-07)Measurements of nitrate and the carbonate system parameters performed mainly from 1993 to 1997 have been used to estimate the evolution of the concentration fields over the year in the surface and underlying waters of the ... -
Annual cycles of sea level and sea surface temperature in the western Mediterranean Sea
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2003-03-01)In the western Mediterranean Sea, sea level variations are the result of seasonal steric effect, atmospheric forcing and mesoscale circulation activity, particularly in the Alboran and Algerian basins, as well as water ... -
Anthropogenic increase of oceanic pCO2 in the Barents Sea surface water
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2003-12-26)We evaluate the change of surface water CO2 partial pressure ( pCO2 sw) in the Barents Sea (BS) between 1967 and 2000–2001. We use temperature (T) data collected during a survey in the BS in 1967 and a relationship between ... -
Anthropogenic Influence on Decadal Changes in Concurrent Hot and Dry Events over China around the Mid-1990s
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)The frequency and duration of observed concurrent hot and dry events (HDEs) over China during the growing season (April–September) exhibit significant decadal changes across the mid-1990s. These changes are characterized ... -
Aragonite saturation states and pH in western Norwegian fjords: Seasonal cycles and controlling factors, 2005-2009
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-07-26)The uptake of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) by the ocean leads to a process known as ocean acidification (OA), which lowers the aragonite saturation state (ΩAr) and pH, and this is poorly documented in coastal ... -
Arctic amplification under global warming of 1.5 and 2 °C in NorESM1-Happi
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Differences between a 1.5 and 2.0 ∘C warmer climate than 1850 pre-industrial conditions are investigated using a suite of uncoupled (Atmospheric Model Intercomparison Project; AMIP), fully coupled, and slab-ocean experiments ... -
Arctic climate change: observed and modelled temperature and sea-ice variability
(Tellus A 56A(4), Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2004-07-09)Changes apparent in the arctic climate system in recent years require evaluation in a century-scale perspective in order to assess the Arctic's response to increasing anthropogenic greenhouse-gas forcing. Here, a new set ... -
The Arctic Fjord Breeze: Characteristics of a Combined Sea Breeze and Valley Wind in a Svalbard Fjord Valley
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Thermally-driven circulations are a frequent meteorological phenomenon in complex Arctic terrain, but the Arctic fjord breeze, a combined sea-breeze and up-valley wind, has received little attention. A field campaign was ... -
Arctic freshwater fluxes: sources, tracer budgets and inconsistencies
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The net rate of freshwater input to the Arctic Ocean has been calculated in the past by two methods: directly, as the sum of precipitation, evaporation and runoff, an approach hindered by sparsity of measurements, and by ... -
Arctic Ocean Amplification in a warming climate in CMIP6 models
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Arctic near-surface air temperature warms much faster than the global average, a phenomenon known as Arctic Amplification. The change of the underlying Arctic Ocean could influence climate through its interaction with sea ... -
Arctic Ocean CO2 uptake: An improved multiyear estimate of the air-sea CO2 flux incorporating chlorophyll a concentrations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-03-22)We estimated monthly air–sea CO2 fluxes in the Arctic Ocean and its adjacent seas north of 60∘ N from 1997 to 2014. This was done by mapping partial pressure of CO2 in the surface water (pCO2w) using a self-organizing map ... -
Arctic Ocean Response to Greenland Sea Wind Anomaliesin a Suite of Model Simulations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-08-04)Plain Language Summary: The North Atlantic Current is an extension of the Gulf Stream, which brings warm Atlantic Water northward as the current flows through the Nordic Seas. Eventually, it enters the cold deep Arctic ... -
