Atlantic water properties, transport and heat loss from mooring observations north of Svalbard
Koenig, Zoe Charlotte; Kalhagen, Kjersti; Kolås, Eivind Hugaas; Fer, Ilker; Nilsen, Frank; Cottier, Finlo (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 ... -
An emerging pathway of Atlantic Water to the Barents Sea through the Svalbard Archipelago: Drivers and variability
Kalhagen, Kjersti; Skogseth, Ragnheid; Baumann, Till Martin; Falck, Eva; Fer, Ilker (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)The Barents Sea, an important component of the Arctic Ocean, is experiencing changes in its ocean currents, stratification, sea ice variability, and marine ecosystems. Inflowing Atlantic Water (AW) is a key driver of these ... -
Numerical modelling of the sub-surface melting of marine-terminating glaciers in Arctic fjords
Kalhagen, Kjersti (Master thesis, 2015-06-01)Submarine melting of glaciers terminating in fjords is likely to be of high importance regarding the total ice loss from ice sheets and ice caps and the resulting addition of freshwater to the ocean. Submarine melting ...
