A Framework for the Development, Design and Implementation of a Sustained Arctic Ocean Observing System
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-08-08)Rapid Arctic warming drives profound change in the marine environment that have significant socio-economic impacts within the Arctic and beyond, including climate and weather hazards, food security, transportation, ... -
Frazil ice formation in ice shelf water plume
(Journal article, 2004-03-17)We present a model for the growth of frazil ice crystals and their accumulation as marine ice at the base of Antarctic ice shelves. The model describes the flow of buoyant water upward along the ice shelf base and includes ... -
Frequency Regulation of Synchronous Generator
(Master thesis, 2017-06-20)The objective of this thesis is to create a Load Frequency Control (LFC) to regulate the active power output and frequency of a synchronous generator, and to conduct experiments to verify frequency stability. The electrical ... -
Freshwater transport over the northeast Greenland shelf in Fram strait
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)We assess the contribution of flow over the Northeast Greenland Shelf (NEGS) to the total freshwater transport (FWT) through the Fram Strait. We analyze available observations since 2013 consisting of hydrographic sections, ... -
From winter to late summer in the northwestern Barents Sea shelf: Impacts of seasonal progression of sea ice and upper ocean on nutrient and phytoplankton dynamics
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Strong seasonality is a key feature of high-latitude systems like the Barents Sea. While the interannual variability and long-term changes of the Barents Sea are well-documented, the seasonal progression of the physical ... -
Frontal-wave cyclogenesis in the North Atlantic –a climatological characterisation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-10)The ambient conditions during cyclogenesis on fronts in the North Atlantic (NA) are characterised climatologically in the ERA-Interim dataset. These ‘secondary’ cyclones, which grow from frontal waves, are typically small ... -
Frontogenesis of the Angola-Benguela Frontal Zone
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-02-08)A diagnostic analysis of the climatological annual mean and seasonal cycle of the Angola–Benguela Frontal Zone (ABFZ) is performed by applying an ocean frontogenetic function (OFGF) to the ocean mixing layer (OML). The ... -
Front–orography interactions during landfall of the 1992 New Year's Day Storm
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Although following a common synoptic evolution for this region, the 1992 New Year's Day Storm was associated with some of the strongest winds observed along the Norwegian west coast. The narrow wind band along its bent-back ... -
A full year of turbulence measurements from a drift campaign in the Arctic Ocean 2019-2020
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Ocean turbulent mixing is a key process in the global climate system, regulating ocean circulation and the uptake and redistribution of heat, carbon, nutrients, oxygen and other tracers. In polar oceans, turbulent heat ... -
Funeral directors’ experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic: a mixed method study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)To investigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on death rituals among funeral directors (FDs) (N = 134), we administered a questionnaire and conducted three focus group interviews (N = 21). The merged results showed ... -
Future change in extreme precipitation in East Asian spring and Mei-yu seasons in two high-resolution AGCMs
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Precipitation in the spring and Mei-yu seasons, the main planting and growing period in East Asia, is crucial to water resource management. Changes in spring and Mei-yu extreme precipitation under global warming are evaluated ... -
Future Changes in Tropical Cyclone Exposure and Impacts in Southeast Asia From CMIP6 Pseudo-Global Warming Simulations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)In this Pseudo-global Warming study, potential future changes in the Southeast Asia tropical cyclone (TC) exposure climatology are quantified. One hundred and seventeen landfalling TCs in the last 20 years are simulated ... -
Future Projections of EURO-CORDEX Raw and Bias-Corrected Daily Maximum Wind Speeds Over Scandinavia
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Twenty historical and future Coordinated Regional Climate Downscaling Experiment ensemble for Europe simulations are bias corrected to investigate the future changes in the daily maximum wind speed over Scandinavia. We use ... -
Future strengthening of the Nordic Seas overturning circulation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)The overturning circulation in the Nordic Seas involves the transformation of warm Atlantic waters into cold, dense overflows. These overflow waters return to the North Atlantic and form the headwaters to the deep limb of ... -
A general framework to obtain seamless seasonal–directional extreme individual wave heights—Showcase Ekofisk
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Extreme wave climate provides the basis for safe design of offshore structures and is crucial for planning and executing offshore operations. Covariate modeling of extremes significantly enriches and improves estimates of ... -
The Generation of Linear and Nonlinear Internal Waves Forced by Subinertial Tides over the Yermak Plateau, Arctic Ocean
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The propagation of internal waves (IWs) of tidal frequency is inhibited poleward of the critical latitude, where the tidal frequency is equal to the Coriolis frequency (f). These subinertial IWs may propagate in the presence ... -
Global and regional surface cooling in a warming climate: a multi-model analysis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)Instrumental temperature records show that the global climate may experience decadal-scale periods without warming despite a long-term warming trend. We analysed 17 global climate models participating in phase 5 of the ... -
Global Attribution of Precipitation to Weather Features
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Weather features, such as extratropical cyclones (ETCs), atmospheric rivers (ARs), and fronts, contribute to substantial amounts of precipitation globally. However, previous estimates of how much these individual features ... -
