(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2014)
Southern Africa was part of Gondwanaland until the Mesozoic, when this supercontinent broke up into fragments that evolved into today’s southern continents. In particular, around 140 Ma, rifting started between southern ...

In numerous studies, midlatitude storm tracks have been shown to shift poleward under global warming scenarios. Among the possible causes, changes in sea surface temperature (SST) have been shown to affect both the intensity ...

This study evaluates sensitivities of glacier mass balance and runoff to both annual and monthly perturbations in air temperature and precipitation at four highly glacierized catchments: Engabreen in northern Norway and ...

The buoyancy-driven circulation is studied in an idealized domain using two models, one based on the linearized planetary geostrophic equations and a fully nonlinear GCM. The surface buoyancy is specified (relaxed) to a ...

While many structural elements on the northwestern Barents Shelf initiated early and have remained influential on accommodation and sedimentation, detailed seismic interpretation attests to the development of new structural ...

The increasing mass loss from the Greenland ice sheet is becoming growingly important to present-day global sea level rise. Meltwater export to the ocean may be amplified by near-surface ice layers in firn (i.e., snow that ...

A new natural rutile reference material is presented, suitable for U‐Pb dating and Zr‐in‐rutile thermometry by microbeam methods. U‐Pb dating of rutile R632 using laser ablation ICP‐MS with both magnetic sector field and ...

Siderite, the iron carbonate mineral, occurs in several geological environments and contributes to both the global iron and CO2 cycles. Under crustal conditions, this mineral may dissolve, releasing iron that becomes ...
