Assessing the influence of sea surface temperature and arctic sea ice cover on the uncertainty in the boreal winter future climate projections
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)We investigate the uncertainty (i.e., inter-model spread) in future projections of the boreal winter climate, based on the forced response of ten models from the CMIP5 following the RCP8.5 scenario. The uncertainty in the ... -
Assessing the influence of supraglacial lakes to the mass balance of Tapado Glacier
(Master thesis, 2023-11-27)Glaciers are an important source of water for agriculture, mining and large population residing in downstream basins in the semiarid Andes. The Tapado Complex (2.44 km2) is the main glacier in the catchment Coquimbo-La ... -
Assessing the Norwegian Offshore Wind Resources: Climatology, Power Variability and Wind Farm Siting
(Doctoral thesis, 2022-09-09)De norske havvindressursene er fantastiske. Likevel er det ingen operative vindparker i de norske havvområdene. Tatt i betraktning både utslippsmål og forventet økning i elektrisitetsforbruk har regjerningen nå begynt å ... -
Assessing the performance of statistical classifiers to discriminate fish stocks using Fourier analysis of otolith shape
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The assignment of individual fish to its stock of origin is important for reliable stock assessment and fisheries management. Otolith shape is commonly used as the marker of distinct stocks in discrimination studies. Our ... -
Assessing the relation between geodiversity and species richness in mountain heaths and tundra landscapes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Context Recent studies show that geodiversity—the diversity of Earth's landforms, materials, and processes—has a positive relationship with biodiversity at a landscape scale. However, there is a substantial lack of evidence ... -
Assessing the reproductive biology of the Greenland shark (Somniosus microcephalus)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The Greenland shark (Somniosus microcephalus, Squaliformes: Somniosidae) is a long-lived Arctic top predator, which in combination with the high historical and modern fishing pressures, has made it subject to increased ... -
Assessing the Sampling Quality of a Low-Tech Low-Budget Volume-Based Rainfall Sampler for Stable Isotope Analysis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-09-27)To better understand the small-scale variability of rainfall and its isotopic composition it is advantageous to utilize rain samplers which are at the same time low-cost, low-tech, robust, and precise with respect to the ... -
Assessing uncertainty in knowledge-based systems for data analysis by simulation
(Statistical report no. 30, Research report, 1996-08) -
Assessment of a decontamination process for dioxins anddioxin-like PCBs in fish oil by physical filtration withactivated carbon
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-07)Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Contaminants in the Food Chain (CONTAM) provided a scientific opinion on the assessment of a decontamination process consisting in the adsorption with ... -
Assessment of Atmospheric Reanalyses With Independent Observations in the Weddell Sea, the Antarctic
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Surface layer and upper‐air in situ observations from two research vessel cruises and an ice station in the Weddell Sea from 1992 and 1996 are used to validate four current atmospheric reanalysis products: ERA‐Interim, ... -
Assessment of CO2 storage capacity based on sparse data: Skade Formation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-12)Large North Sea aquifers of high quality are the likely major target for 12 Gt of European CO2 emissions that should be stored in the subsurface by 2050. This involves an upscaling of the present combined injection rate ... -
An assessment of future extreme precipitation in western Norway using a linear model
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2010-11-26)A Linear Model (Smith and Barstad, 2004) was used to dynamically downscale Orographic Precipitation over western Norway from twelve General Circulation Model simulations. The GCM simulations come from the A1B emissions ... -
An Assessment of Geophysical Survey Techniques for Characterising the Subsurface Around Glacier Margins, and Recommendations for Future Applications
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Geophysical surveys provide an efficient and non-invasive means of studying subsurface conditions in numerous sedimentary settings. In this study, we explore the application of three geophysical methods to a proglacial ... -
Assessment of growth performance and liver lipid accumulation in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) fed an insect-based diet
(Master thesis, 2018-06-26)Increase in price and reduced availability of fish meal (FM) has caused the aquaculture industry to look at alternative sources for nutrients for feed production. Vegetable protein sources can replace a substantial part ... -
Assessment of Sequential and Simultaneous Ensemble-based History Matching Methods for Weakly Non-linear Problems
(Doctoral thesis, 2015-02-13)The ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) has, since its introduction in 1994, gained much attention as a tool for sequential data assimilation in many scientific areas. In recent years, the EnKF has been utilized for estimating ... -
Assessment of the biodegradability of xanthan in offshore injection water
(Master thesis, 2015-04-29)The application of biopolymers in EOR operations is considered environmental friendly compared to synthetic polymers. However, microbial degradation of the biopolymers may lead to a deterioration of effect in EOR applications. ... -
