Attribution of multi-annual to decadal changes in the climate system: The Large Ensemble Single Forcing Model Intercomparison Project (LESFMIP)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Multi-annual to decadal changes in climate are accompanied by changes in extreme events that cause major impacts on society and severe challenges for adaptation. Early warnings of such changes are now potentially possible ... -
Automated Measurements of Whitecaps on the Ocean Surface from a Buoy-Mounted Camera
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-12)We quantify the percentage of sea surface covered by whitecaps from images taken by a non-stationary camera mounted on a moored buoy using an Adaptive Thresholding Segmentation (ATS) method and an Iterative Between Class ... -
Autonomous Ocean Turbulence Measurements Using Shear Probes on a Moored Instrument
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-02)An internally recording, autonomous instrument has been tested for measurements of ocean turbulence from a mooring line. Measurements were made at a single level in the water column, but for an extended period of time, at ... -
Baroclinic Instability in the West Spitsbergen Current
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-07-15)Baroclinic instability in the West Spitsbergen Current is investigated, based on data from an array of current meter moorings along 78.83oN, across the deeper (1000-2400 m) section of the continental slope west of Svalbard. ... -
Barotropic instability in the West Spitsbergen Current
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2010-07-24)Barotropic instability in the shoreward branch of the West Spitsbergen Current is investigated on the basis of data from an array of current meter moorings along 78.83°N, across the upper continental slope and shelf break ... -
Bedymo: A combined quasi-geostrophic and primitive equation model in σ coordinates
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)This paper introduces the Bergen Dynamical Model (Bedymo), an idealized atmospheric circulation model, which combines the quasi-geostrophic approximation and the hydrostatic primitive equations into one modelling framework. ... -
Benefit of vertical localization for sea surface temperature assimilation in isopycnal coordinate model
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022-12-15)Sea surface temperature (SST) observations are a critical data set for long-term climate reconstruction. However, their assimilation with an ensemble-based data assimilation method can degrade performance in the ocean ... -
Best Practice Data Standards for Discrete Chemical Oceanographic Observations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Effective data management plays a key role in oceanographic research as cruise-based data, collected from different laboratories and expeditions, are commonly compiled to investigate regional to global oceanographic ... -
The BLLAST field experiment: Boundary-Layer late afternoon and sunset turbulence
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-10-16)Due to the major role of the sun in heating the earth's surface, the atmospheric planetary boundary layer over land is inherently marked by a diurnal cycle. The afternoon transition, the period of the day that connects the ... -
A brief history of climate – the northern seas from the Last Glacial Maximum to global warming
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-12)The understanding of climate and climate change is fundamentally concerned with two things: a well-defined and sufficiently complete climate record to be explained, for example of observed temperature, and a relevant ... -
Calibration and assessment of electrochemical low-cost sensors in remote alpine harsh environments
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)This work presents results from an original open-source low-cost sensor (LCS) system developed to measure tropospheric O3 in a remote high altitude alpine site. Our study was conducted at the Col Margherita Observatory ... -
Calving rates at tidewater glaciers vary strongly with ocean temperature
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-10-09)Rates of ice mass loss at the calving margins of tidewater glaciers (frontal ablation rates) are a key uncertainty in sea level rise projections. Measurements are difficult because mass lost is replaced by ice flow at ... -
Can Areawide Building Retrofitting Affect the Urban Microclimate? An LES Study for Berlin, Germany
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)In this work, we investigate the effect of areawide building retrofitting on summertime, street-level outdoor temperatures in an urban district in Berlin, Germany. We perform two building-resolving, weeklong large-eddy ... -
Cancellation of the precessional cycle in δ18O records during the Early Pleistocene
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)The dominant pacing of glacial‐interglacial cycles in deep‐ocean δ18O records changed substantially during the Mid‐Pleistocene Transition. The precessional cycle (∼23 ky) is absent during the Early Pleistocene, which we ... -
Causes of the large warm bias in the Angola–Benguela Frontal Zone in the Norwegian Earth System Model
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)We have investigated the causes of the sea surface temperature (SST) bias in the Angola–Benguela Frontal Zone (ABFZ) of the southeastern Atlantic Ocean simulated by the Norwegian Earth System Model (NorESM). Similar to ... -
Changes in atmospheric variability in a glacial climate and the impacts on proxy data: a model intercomparison
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2009-09-11)Using four different climate models, we investigate sea level pressure variability in the extratropical North Atlantic in the preindustrial climate (1750 AD) and at the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM, 21 kyrs before present) ... -
Changes in the properties and distribution of the intermediate and deep waters in the Fram Strait
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-04)The Fram Strait is the only deep connection between the Arctic Ocean and the Nordic Seas (Greenland, Iceland, and Norwegian Seas), with a sill depth of approximately 2600 m. Consequently, observations from this area reflect ... -
Characterisation of Single Wind Turbine Wakes with Static and Scanning WINTWEX-W LiDAR Data
