• Bottom melting of Arctic Sea Ice in the Nansen Basin due to Atlantic Water influence 

      Muilwijk, Morven Korneel (Master thesis, 2016-05-24)
      The hydrographic situation for a region north of Svalbard is investigated using observations from the Norwegian Young Sea Ice Cruise (N-ICE2015). Observations from January to June 2015 are compared to historical observations ...
    • Decadal prediction of Sahel rainfall: where does the skill (or lack thereof) come from? 

      Mohino, Elsa; Keenlyside, Noel; Pohlmann, Holger (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-12)
      Previous works suggest decadal predictions of Sahel rainfall could be skillful. However, the sources of such skill are still under debate. In addition, previous results are based on short validation periods (i.e. less than ...
    • Global and regional surface cooling in a warming climate: a multi-model analysis 

      Medhaug, Iselin; Drange, Helge (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)
      Instrumental temperature records show that the global climate may experience decadal-scale periods without warming despite a long-term warming trend. We analysed 17 global climate models participating in phase 5 of the ...
    • Identifying the driving factors behind observed elevational range shifts on European mountains 

      Grytnes, John-Arvid; Kapfer, Jutta; Jurasinski, Gerald; Birks, Hilary H.; Henriksen, Hanne; Klanderud, Kari; Odland, Arvid; Ohlson, Mikael; Wipf, Sonja; Birks, Harry John Betteley (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-04-13)
      Aim In recent decades species ranges have shifted upwards in elevation and northwards in latitude. These shifts are commonly interpreted as a response to recent climate warming. However, several alternative hypotheses have ...
    • Responses of tundra plants to experimental warming : meta-analysis of the international tundra experiment 

      Arft, A. M.; Walker, M. D.; Gurevitch, J.; Alatalo, J. M.; Bret-Harte, M. S.; Dale, M.; Diemer, M.; Gugerli, F.; Henry, G. H. R.; Jones, M. H.; Hollister, R. D.; Jónsdóttir, I.

J.; Webber, P. J.; Welker, J. M.; Wookey, P. A. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 1999)
      The International Tundra Experiment (ITEX) is a collaborative, multisite experiment using a common temperature manipulation to examine variability in species response across climatic and geographic gradients of tundra ...
