Ein enkel orografisk nedbørsmodell for Vestlandet
(Master thesis, 2011)I denne oppgåva er det undersøkt om ein enkel orografisk nedbørsmodell vil kunne gje gode estimat for nedbøren på Vestlandet. Ein del av oppgåva har vore å finne ut om ein slik modell er eit eigna verktøy til å forklare ... -
Modelled mass balance of Xibu glacier, Tibetan Plateau: sensitivity to climate change
(Journal of Glaciology, Journal article, 2010-06-01)Due to a lack of in situ measurements, model-based studies of glacier mass balance in the Tibetan Plateau are very limited. An energy-balance model is applied to analyse the mass-balance sensitivity of Xibu glacier, in the ... -
Reconstruction of Glacier Mass Balance and Sensitivity Tests to Climate Change: A case study of Ålfotbreen and Nigardsbreen
(Master thesis, 2011-11-30)A physically-based one dimensional CROCUS snow model was applied to simulate the surface mass balances of Ålfotbreen (1964-2009) and Nigardsbreen (1962-2009) in southern Norway. The required hourly meteorological input ... -
Severe mesoscale weather events over the Nordic Seas: Numerical modelling and sensitivity experiments
(Doctoral thesis, 2011-06-22)The Nordic seas region, due to its unique geographical and climatological conditions, experiences a number of adverse mesoscale weather events that have proven fatal for human activities in the area. Most of these weather ... -
Thunderstorms in Norway. A climatological and a case study
(Master thesis, 2011-06-01)The object of this thesis are thunderstorms in Norway. In the first part, the variability of thunderstorms in time and space is investigated, based on synoptic observations from 60 weather stations in Norway. An analysis ...
