An assessment of future extreme precipitation in western Norway using a linear model
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2010-11-26)A Linear Model (Smith and Barstad, 2004) was used to dynamically downscale Orographic Precipitation over western Norway from twelve General Circulation Model simulations. The GCM simulations come from the A1B emissions ... -
Assessment of wind conditions at a fjord inlet by complementary use of sonic anemometers and lidars
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-12-02)Wind velocity measurement devices based on the remote optical sensing, lidars, are extensively applied in wind energy research and wind farm operation. The present paper demonstrates the relevance and potential of lidar ... -
The Atlantic inflow across the Greenland-Scotland ridge in global climate models (CMIP5)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-05-21)Oceanic heat transport from the North Atlantic to the Arctic through the Nordic Seas is a key component of the climate system that has to be modelled accurately in order to predict, for example, future Arctic sea ice changes ... -
Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation and δ13C Variability During the Last Interglacial
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) is thought to be relatively vigorous and stable during Interglacial periods on multimillennial (equilibrium) timescales. However, recent proxy (δ13C benthic) reconstructions ... -
Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation modulates the impacts of Arctic sea ice decline
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-03)The Arctic sea ice cover has been rapidly declining in the last two decades, concurrent with a shift in the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO) to its warm phase around 1996/1997. Here we use both observations and model ... -
The Atlantic Multidecadal Variability phase-dependence of teleconnection between the North Atlantic Oscillation in February and the Tibetan Plateau in March
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)The Tibetan Plateau (TP), referred to as the “Asian water tower,” contains one of the largest land ice masses on Earth. The local glacier shrinkage and frozen-water storage are strongly affected by variations in surface ... -
Atlantic Water Boundary Current Along the Southern Yermak Plateau, Arctic Ocean
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)The major ocean current that carries heat into the Arctic Ocean splits into three main branches of Atlantic Water (AW) and recirculations when it encounters the Yermak Plateau (YP) located north of Svalbard. While the ... -
Atlantic Water Circulation and Properties Northwest of Svalbard During Anomalous Southerly Winds
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Atlantic Water (AW), the main source of heat and salt for the Arctic Ocean, undergoes large transformations (cooling and freshening) north of Svalbard as it flows near the surface above the Yermak Plateau (YP). In September ... -
Atlantic Water Inflow Through the Yermak Pass Branch: Evolution Since 2007
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Thirty-four months (2017–2020) of mooring data were recently obtained at 80.6°N, 7.26°E in the main branch of Atlantic Water inflow to the Arctic, the Yermak Pass Branch. The Yermak Pass Branch was sampled at that same ... -
Atlantic Water Pathways Along the North-Western Svalbard Shelf Mapped Using Vessel-Mounted Current Profilers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-03)A large amount of warm Atlantic water (AW) enters the Arctic as a boundary current through Fram Strait (West Spitsbergen Current [WSC]) and is the major oceanic heat source to the Arctic Ocean. Along the north‐western ... -
Atlantic water properties, transport and heat loss from mooring observations north of Svalbard
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The Atlantic Water inflow to the Arctic Ocean is transformed and modified in the area north of Svalbard, which influences the Arctic Ocean heat and salt budget. Year-round observations are relatively sparse in this region ... -
Atlantic water transformation along its poleward pathway across the Nordic Seas
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-08-23)The warm and salty Atlantic Water is substantially modified along its poleward transit across the Nordic Seas, where it reaches deeper isopycnals. In particular, the Lofoten Basin, exposed to intense air‐sea interactions, ... -
An Atlantic-driven rapid circulation change in the North Pacific Ocean during the late 1990s
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-10-08)Interbasin interactions have been increasingly emphasized in recent years due to their roles in shaping climate trends and the global warming hiatus in the northern hemisphere. The profound influence from the North Atlantic ... -
Atlantic-Origin Overflow Water in the East Greenland Current
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Dense water masses transported southward along the east coast of Greenland in the East Greenland Current (EGC) form the largest contribution to the Denmark Strait Overflow. When exiting Denmark Strait these dense water ... -
Atmosphere-Snow Exchange Explains Surface Snow Isotope Variability
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The climate signal imprinted in the snow isotopic composition allows to infer past climate variability from ice core stable water isotope records. The concurrent evolution of vapor and surface snow isotopic composition ... -
Atmospheric boundary layers in storms: advanced theory and modelling applications
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2005-03-29)Turbulent planetary boundary layers (PBLs) control the exchange processes between the atmosphere and the ocean/land. The key problems of PBL physics are to determine the PBL height, the momentum, energy and matter fluxes ... -
Atmospheric Circulation Response to Short-Term Arctic Warming in an Idealized Model
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Recent Arctic sea ice loss in fall has been posited to drive midlatitude circulation changes into winter and even spring. Past work has shown that sea ice loss can indeed trigger a weakening of the stratospheric polar ... -
Atmospheric Contributions to the Reversal of Surface Temperature Anomalies Between Early and Late Winter Over Eurasia
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Observations have shown subseasonal reversal of temperature anomalies between early and late winter over Eurasia, which is distinct from the seasonal mean condition. Based on the reanalysis data, the 1800-year control ... -
Atmospheric Drivers of Wind Turbine Blade Leading Edge Erosion: Review and Recommendations for Future Research
