ROMFORSK-Program for romforskning

High resolution sea-ice motion from Synthetical Aperture Radar using pattern tracking and Doppler shift

Sjøis er en av de mest fremredende klima indikatorer i Arktis og sjøisdata er derfor viktig både i klimaforskning og i operasjonell monitorering og iskart produksjon. Dette prosjektet har fokusert på å utlede høyoppløselige isdriftdata fra SAR satelitter. Isdrift er årsak til at sjøisen forflytte...

FRINATEK-Fri prosjektstøtte for matematikk, naturvitenskap og teknologi

Does the Arctic sea-ice loss have an impact on the winter weather patterns in Europe? (EuropeWeather)

I Arktis har stigningen i temperaturen nær overflaten vært nesten dobbelt så stor som det globale gjennomsnittet de siste tiårene, noe som er kjent som 'arktisk forsterkning' (Arctic Amplification, AA). Samtidig har man hatt kalde og snørike vintre i landområder på midlere breddegrader. Dette fen...

Sea Ice Mechanics: from satellites to numerical models

Arktis opplever nå raske endringer som hovedsakelig skyldes global oppvarming. I løpet av det siste århundret er det observert en drastisk reduksjon av området som er dekket av arktisk havis om sommeren. Isens tykkelse er også redusert og eksporten av is gjennom Framstredet har økt. Disse endring...
