Greenland surface air temperature changes from 1981 to 2019 and implications for ice-sheet melt and mass-balance change
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)We provide an updated analysis of instrumental Greenland monthly temperature data to 2019, focusing mainly on coastal stations but also analysing ice‐sheet records from Swiss Camp and Summit. Significant summer (winter) ... -
Greenland-Scotland overflow studied by hydro-chemical multivariate analysis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2003-01)Hydrographic, nutrient and halocarbon tracer data collected in July-August 1994 in the Norwegian Sea, the Faroe Bank Channel (FBC), the Iceland and Irminger Basins and the Iceland Sea are resented. Special attention was ... -
Grounding Performance under Lightning Surges in High Voltage Substations
(Master thesis, 2018-06-16)To achieve electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and sufficient protection against lighting transients in the power transmission system, understanding of the grounding system transient behavior becomes crucial when deviating ... -
Groundwater fluctuations during a debris flow event in western Norway - Triggered by rain and snowmelt
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Pore pressure is crucial in triggering debris slides and flows. Here we present measurements of groundwater pore pressure and temperature recorded by a piezometer 1.6 m below the surface on a slope susceptible to debris ... -
Growing Ice in a Tank: Young Sea Ice Evolution and Turbulence in the Under Ice Boundary Layer
(Master thesis, 2011-11-14)Thin sea ice and its modifications of the oceanic boundary layer are important in the context of the recent retreat of the Arctic sea ice cover. To study turbulence in the under ice boundary layer during thin sea ice growth, ... -
Has a warm North Atlantic contributed to recent European cold winters?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-06-02)The rise of global surface temperature waned during the last decade, despite increasing greenhouse gas concentrations. The temperature changes were most pronounced over northern hemisphere land masses during winter (Cohen ... -
Heat flux variations in the eastern Norwegian Atlantic Current toward
(Geophysical Research Letters;32(2005) L14, Journal article, 2005-07-21) -
Heterogeneity of impacts of high CO2 on the North Western European shelf
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-02-03)The increase in atmospheric CO2 is a dual threat to the marine environment: from one side it drives climate change, leading to modifications in water temperature, circulation patterns and stratification intensity; on the ... -
High northern latitude surface air temperature: comparison of existing data and creation of a new gridded data set 1900–2000
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2008-03)Detection, attribution and understanding of temperature changes in the high northern latitudes depend on constraining uncertainties and resolving apparent discrepancies in observational data sets. We quantitatively compare ... -
High resolution sea ice monitoring using space borne Synthetic Aperture Radar
(Doctoral thesis, 2017-12-06)Sea ice represents a major factor in the climate system and updated knowl- edge about sea ice conditions is important for shipping and offshore industry, local communities and others. Due to its remote location and strong ... -
High resolution weather forecasting and predictability - applications in complex terrain
(Doctoral thesis, 2006-11-17) -
High-frequency internal wave observations in the marginal ice zone
(Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans;92(C7), Journal article, 1987-06-30) -
High-resolution stable isotope signature of a land-falling atmospheric river in southern Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Heavy precipitation at the west coast of Norway is often connected to elongated meridional structures of high integrated water vapour transport known as atmospheric rivers (ARs). Here we present high-resolution measurements ... -
A high‐resolution hindcast of wind and waves for the North Sea, the Norwegian Sea, and the Barents Sea
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-05)A combined high-resolution atmospheric downscaling and wave hindcast based on the ERA-40 reanalysis covering the Norwegian Sea, the North Sea, and the Barents Sea is presented. The period covered is from September 1957 to ... -
Historical and future runoff changes in the Yangtze River Basin from CMIP6 models constrained by a weighting strategy
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Based on the ERA5-Land datasets from 1981–2020, a decadal oscillation has been found in the variation of summer runoff in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River Basin (MLYRB). The oscillation suggests that the ... -
Holocene trends in the foraminifer record from the Norwegian Sea and the North Atlantic Ocean
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2010-03-30)The early to mid-Holocene thermal optimum is a well-known feature in a wide variety of paleoclimate archives from the Northern Hemisphere. Reconstructed summer temperature anomalies from across northern Europe show a clear ... -
How does latent cooling affect baroclinic development in an idealized framework?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Latent cooling by evaporating or melting hydrometeors has recently been shown to contribute to the positive low-level potential vorticity (PV) anomaly below the layer of latent heating in midlatitude cyclones. While the ... -
How Is the Ocean Anthropogenic Carbon Reservoir Filled?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)About a quarter of the total anthropogenic CO2 emissions during the industrial era has been absorbed by the ocean. The rate limiting step for this uptake is the transport of the anthropogenic carbon (Cant) from the ocean ... -
How much arctic fresh water participates in the subpolar overturning circulation?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Fresh Arctic waters flowing into the Atlantic are thought to have two primary fates. They may be mixed into the deep ocean as part of the overturning circulation, or flow alongside regions of deep water formation without ... -
How northern freshwater input can stabilise thermohaline circulation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)The North Atlantic thermohaline circulation (THC) carries heat and salt towards the Arctic. This circulation is partly sustained by buoyancy loss and is generally believed to be inhibited by northern freshwater input as ...
