High‐resolution chronology of 24 000‐year long cores from two lakes in the Polar Urals, Russia, correlated with palaeomagnetic inclination records with a distinct event about 20 000 years ago
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Based on radiocarbon dating, a tephra horizon, varve counts and palaeomagnetism, detailed age models covering the last ~24 k cal a bp, have been developed for the stratigraphy in the lakes Bolshoye Shchuchye and Maloye ... -
Holocen rekonstruksjon av Kongsbreen, Svalbard
(Master thesis, 2019-06-26)Dette masterprosjektet har ved bruk av innsjøsedimenter og kvartærgeologisk kartlegging rekonstruert posisjonen til brefronten til Kongsbreen gjennom holocen. Studien er basert på en sedimentkjerne fra Sarsvatnet, nordvest ... -
Holocene avsetningsprosesser i Fjærlandsfjorden basert på marine data
(Master thesis, 2019-06-08)Sedimentbassenger i vestnorske fjorder utgjør et viktig arkiv for å rekonstruere avsetningsmiljø og pre-historisk skredaktivitet samtidig som det gir et indirekte innblikk i hvordan klima har endret seg. I dette studiet ... -
Holocene debris flows recognized in a lacustrine sedimentary succession: sedimentology, chronostratigraphy and cause of triggering
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2003)This study focuses on the sedimentary characteristics and the chronostratigraphy of Holocene massflow deposits recognized in a lake-fill sedimentary succession. These deposits in lake Ulvådalsvatnet, western Norway, are ... -
Holocene forvitringsrater på fjelloverflater i Hereiane, Hardanger
(Master thesis, 2016-05-28)The Schmidt hammer has been used for relative dating for several decades. In the recent years scientists have approached the study field from a different angle, trying to set up a calibrated dating curve by using the ... -
Holocene glacier variability and Neoglacial hydroclimate at Ålfotbreen, western Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-02)Glaciers and small ice caps respond rapidly to climate perturbations (mainly winter precipitation, and summer temperature), and the mass-balance of glaciers located in western Norway is governed mainly by winter precipitation ... -
HOLOCENE MARINGEOLOGISKE PROSESSER I SØRFJORDEN, OSTERØY
(Master thesis, 2022-03-07)De vestnorske fjordbassengene inneholder høytoppløselige arkiver som kan brukes for å studere og rekonstruere avsetningsmiljøet i fjordene. I dette studiet har de holocene avsetningsprosessene i den østlige delen av ... -
Holocene multi-proxy environmental reconstruction from lake Hakluytvatnet, Amsterdamøya Island, Svalbard (79.5°N)
(Journal article, 2018-03)High resolution proxy records of past climate are sparse in the Arctic due to low organic production that restricts the use of radiocarbon dating and challenging logistics that make data collection difficult. Here, we ... -
Holocene skredavsetninger i Halsafjorden, Nordmøre
(Master thesis, 2022-12-09)Hovedformålet med denne masteroppgaven er å avdekke og datere holocene skredavsetninger i Halsafjorden i forbindelse med prosjektet «Ferjefri E39». Ferjefri-E39 prosjektet er et samarbeidsprosjekt mellom Statens Vegvesen, ... -
Holocene skredhendingar i Sulafjorden og på Hareidlandet, Sunnmøre
(Master thesis, 2022-06-01)Masteroppgåva har som formål å undersøkje om det er ein potensiell samanheng mellom observerte holocene skredhendingar og jordskjelv eller om det er tsunami, i Sulafjorden og i innsjøsedimenter på Hareidlandet. Problemstillinga ... -
Holocene variations in atmospheric circulation in the North Atlantic region reconstructed from lake sediments
(Doctoral thesis, 2016-06-17)Holocene variations in atmospheric circulation in the North Atlantic region have been reconstructed, based on three individual lake sediment studies from sites along the coast of Norway and Svalbard. This thesis contributes ... -
Homotopy analysis of the Lippmann-Schwinger equation for seismic wavefield modeling in strongly scattering media
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)We present an application of the homotopy analysis method for solving the integral equations of the Lippmann-Schwinger type, which occurs frequently in acoustic and seismic scattering theory. In this method, a series ... -
Homotopy method for seismic modeling in strongly scattering acoustic media with density variation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The wave equation for acoustic media with variable density and velocity can be transformed into an integral equation of the Lippmann-Schwinger type; but for a 4-dimensional state vector involving the gradient of the pressure ... -
Homotopy scattering series for seismic forward modelling with variable density and velocity
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)We have derived a convergent scattering series solution for the frequency-domain wave equation in acoustic media with variable density and velocity. The convergent scattering series solution is based on the homotopy analysis ... -
How is a turbidite actually deposited?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The deposition of a classic turbidite by a surge-type turbidity current, as envisaged by conceptual models, is widely considered a discrete event of continuous sediment accumulation at a falling rate by the gradually waning ... -
How post-salt sediment flux and progradation rate influence salt tectonics on rifted margins: Insights from geodynamic modelling
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Continental rifted margins can be associated with widespread and thick salt deposits, which are often formed during the final stages of rifting, prior to breakup. These salt-bearing margins are typically characterized by ... -
How well can near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) measure sediment organic matter in multiple lakes?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Loss-on-ignition (LOI) is the most widely used measure of organic matter in lake sediments, a variable related to both climate and land-use change. The main drawback for conventional measurement methods is the processing ... -
