Air-Sea Interaction in Biophysical Modeling: With focus on Northeast Arctic Cod
(Doctoral thesis, 2019-02-15)The focus of this thesis is on upper ocean dynamics and the interactions between the atmosphere and the oceans in relation to early life stages of Northeast Arctic cod. The main spawning sites of Northeast Arctic cod are ... -
Challenges in seismic hazard assessment: Analyses of ground motion modelling and seismotectonic sources
(Doctoral thesis, 2006-06-21)Seismic hazard assessment has an important societal impact in describing levels of ground motions to be expected in a given region in the future. Challenges in seismic hazard assessment are closely associated with the fact ... -
Circulation features in the northern North Atlantic Ocean inferred from simulated radioactive tracers

Laboratory study of initial sea-ice growth: properties of grease ice and nilas
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-07-10)We investigate initial sea-ice growth in an ice-tank study by freezing an NaCl solution of about 29 g kg−1 in three different setups: grease ice grew in experiments with waves and in experiments with a current and wind, ... -
Sub-surface maxima in buoyant fish eggs indicate vertical velocity shear and spatially limited spawning grounds
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)Observed vertical profiles of buoyant particles, in this case pelagic Northeast Arctic cod eggs, occasionally deviate from the vertical diffusion-buoyancy balance by displaying sub-surface maxima. Here we present a mechanism ...
