Barotropic instability in the West Spitsbergen Current
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2010-07-24)Barotropic instability in the shoreward branch of the West Spitsbergen Current is investigated on the basis of data from an array of current meter moorings along 78.83°N, across the upper continental slope and shelf break ... -

Batterilading i hybride fremdriftssystemer ved hjelp av tapsenergi fra forbrenningsmotoren
(Master thesis, 2017-06-23)In a time when emission standards are getting stricter, the search for more environmentally friendly propulsion is more relevant than ever. Hybridization and electric propulsion has, thus, become more common in some sectors, ... -
Bedymo: A combined quasi-geostrophic and primitive equation model in σ coordinates
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)This paper introduces the Bergen Dynamical Model (Bedymo), an idealized atmospheric circulation model, which combines the quasi-geostrophic approximation and the hydrostatic primitive equations into one modelling framework. ... -
Benefit of vertical localization for sea surface temperature assimilation in isopycnal coordinate model
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022-12-15)Sea surface temperature (SST) observations are a critical data set for long-term climate reconstruction. However, their assimilation with an ensemble-based data assimilation method can degrade performance in the ocean ... -
Benguela Niños: Observations and Modelling
(Master thesis, 2004)A numerical ocean model for the South Atlantic was used to study the 1995 Benguela Niño in order to learn about the underlying forcing mechanisms of the phenomenon. By comparing observations and model output, it was found ... -
Best Practice Data Standards for Discrete Chemical Oceanographic Observations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Effective data management plays a key role in oceanographic research as cruise-based data, collected from different laboratories and expeditions, are commonly compiled to investigate regional to global oceanographic ... -
Bifurcation Points for Tropical Cyclone Genesis and Intensification in Sheared and Dry Environments
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)The combination of moderate vertical wind shear (VWS) and dry environments can produce the most uncertain scenarios for tropical cyclone (TC) genesis and intensification. We investigated the sources of increased uncertainty ... -
The BLLAST field experiment: Boundary-Layer late afternoon and sunset turbulence
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-10-16)Due to the major role of the sun in heating the earth's surface, the atmospheric planetary boundary layer over land is inherently marked by a diurnal cycle. The afternoon transition, the period of the day that connects the ... -
Bottom melting of Arctic Sea Ice in the Nansen Basin due to Atlantic Water influence
(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 ... -
A brief history of climate – the northern seas from the Last Glacial Maximum to global warming
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-12)The understanding of climate and climate change is fundamentally concerned with two things: a well-defined and sufficiently complete climate record to be explained, for example of observed temperature, and a relevant ... -
Bruk og misbruk av klimaframskrivninger
(Journal article, 2009)Forskere er avhengig av pålitelige klimaframskrivninger for å kunne si hvilke konsekvenser klimaforandringer får for mennesker og samfunn i framtiden. Men hva kan klimaframskrivninger brukes til og hvordan bør de brukes? -
Calibration and assessment of electrochemical low-cost sensors in remote alpine harsh environments
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)This work presents results from an original open-source low-cost sensor (LCS) system developed to measure tropospheric O3 in a remote high altitude alpine site. Our study was conducted at the Col Margherita Observatory ... -
Calving rates at tidewater glaciers vary strongly with ocean temperature
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-10-09)Rates of ice mass loss at the calving margins of tidewater glaciers (frontal ablation rates) are a key uncertainty in sea level rise projections. Measurements are difficult because mass lost is replaced by ice flow at ... -
Can Areawide Building Retrofitting Affect the Urban Microclimate? An LES Study for Berlin, Germany
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)In this work, we investigate the effect of areawide building retrofitting on summertime, street-level outdoor temperatures in an urban district in Berlin, Germany. We perform two building-resolving, weeklong large-eddy ... -
Cancellation of the precessional cycle in δ18O records during the Early Pleistocene
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)The dominant pacing of glacial‐interglacial cycles in deep‐ocean δ18O records changed substantially during the Mid‐Pleistocene Transition. The precessional cycle (∼23 ky) is absent during the Early Pleistocene, which we ... -
Carbon and oxygen fluxes in the Barents and Norwegian Seas : production, air-sea exchange and budget calculations
(Doctoral thesis, 2007-08-17)This thesis focus on the carbon and oxygen fluxes in the Barents and Norwegian Seas and presents four studies where the main topics are variability of biological production, air-sea exchange and budget calculations. The ... -
Carbon to nutrient ratios in marine systems: understanding natural variability Studies of seasonal, inter-annual and regional variability
(Doctoral thesis, 2012-06-29)Ecological stoichiometry deals with the coupling of the carbon (C), nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) cycles at the base of the aquatic food webs. Variation in C:N:P stoichiometry is driven by a multitude of factors, and the ... -
Causes of the large warm bias in the Angola–Benguela Frontal Zone in the Norwegian Earth System Model
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)We have investigated the causes of the sea surface temperature (SST) bias in the Angola–Benguela Frontal Zone (ABFZ) of the southeastern Atlantic Ocean simulated by the Norwegian Earth System Model (NorESM). Similar to ... -
