Processes governing air-sea CO2 transfer; an improved estimate for the North Atlantic

The project focuses on the issues of accurate parameterisation of the air-sea exchange rate and small scale biasing of air-sea flux estimates, aiming to provide an accurate estimate of the air-sea flux of CO<sub>2</sub> in North Atlantic, and its inter-an nual variability. The project intends to ...

Ensemble forecasting and the ocean's mesoscale

Project summary: Despite the popularity of ensemble simulations for medium-range and long-range forecasts in meteorology, similar activities are rather sparse in the ocean modeling community. The abundance of mesoscale activity (such as eddies) off the Norwegian coast has been throughly document...

Effect of longitudial Marangoni waves on the surface wave signature of a film covered ocean

Thin surface films cover large areas of the ocean surface. They are of biogenic as well as of antropogenic origin,i.e. chemical breakdown of dead organisms or petroleum spills from ships or offshore industry. Such films have a profound influence on the sh ort surface wave climate of the ocean. Th...

Boundary layer processes affecting dense water flow on a slope

Overflow at submarine ridges, and especially through channels is of the great importance for the global thermohaline circulation and interannual climate variability. Significant near-bottom mixing is usually observed within dense overflows from marginal s eas. These bottom-intensified currents co...

Mass transport in free barotropic and baroclinic Sverdrup waves in a viscous rotating ocean

The fact that friction significantly modifies long barotropic waves was first demonstrated by Sverdrup (1927) and Fjeldstad (1929) in their analyses of the semi-diurnal tides on the North Siberian Shelf. Features such as reduced phase speed, decreasing am plitude as the waves progress and phase l...

OVERVÅK-Overvåkn.av marine/terrestr.s.

Spatial and temporal variability of currents and transport of warm waters towards the Nordic Seas

The proposed program to measure currents, temperature, sanility and CO2 across the North Atlantic between the Orkney (UK) and Cape Farewell (Greenland) spans all warm waters flowing north in what is known as the global termohaline circulation (popularly k nown as the Conveyor Belt). While the gen...

OVERVÅK-Overvåkn.av marine/terrestr.s.

Monitoring the Norwegian Coastal Zone Environment (MONCOZE)

Currently major deficiencies exist in our ability to understand and describe the variability of the Norwegian Coastal Current and its influence on the marine environment, locally as well as downstream. In this project we will therefore implement, validate , test and demonstrate a system dedicated...
