(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2011)
The polar low in the Norwegian Sea on March 16-17 2008 has been studied using both weather analysis and the numerical weather prediction (NWP) model weather research and forecasting (WRF).
This particular polar low was ...

In this thesis, transport pathways, temporal trends and seasonality of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in the Arctic are examined. These pollutants, which can be transported over long distances, constitute a great ...

Clouds in the Arctic differ from clouds elsewhere in that they have a net warming effect at the surface. This happens because the longwave (LW) radiation dominates the radiation regime due to large solar zenith angles ...

I denne oppgaven har vi studert lavfrekvent variabiliteten i havet gjennom det 20-århundret. I tillegg til observasjoner har vi brukt data fra fire klimamodeller; CCSM3, Gfdl-CM2.0, BCM2.0 og HadCM3, som er kjørt med ...

Extreme mesoscale weather in the Arctic region often forms in the vicinity of the ice edge. A polar low was observed in the region between Svalbard and the ice cap, 8. january 2010. This was the first polar low to have ...

Earthquake prediction is a highly important goal in geoscience. In this study we present usage of machine learning to predict distance to failure in rocks, a problem adjacent to earthquake prediction. We use two machine ...

Geological CO2 storage is an important initiative to mitigate climate change. Numerical models are valuable for estimating storage capacity and for risk assessment. Due to large scales involved, simplified models are ...

There has been a steady increase of marine activity throughout the Arctic Ocean during the last decades, and maritime end users are requesting skillful high-resolution sea ice forecasts to ensure operational safety. Different ...

The aim of this study is to achieve a better understanding of the deep basin and crustal configuration of the transition zone between the Møre and Vøring margins. The area selected is based on the distribution of a set of ...
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2015)
The motion of temperate and polythermal glaciers is influenced by the seasonal input of meltwater to the basal hydrological system. Spatial differences in the bed sliding velocities lead to stress and strain in the glacier ...
