Sustainable Svalbard Coasts

Nearshore waters are among the most productive regions in the Arctic and the coastal zone has always been the preferred ecotype for humans in the area. De-icing and continued warming will allow colonization of the intertidal zone by Arctic and boreal flora and fauna. Disappearance of coastal sea ...

ROMFORSK-Program for romforskning

Which types of particle precipitation matter in the middle atmosphere?

Målet med prosjektet er å fastslå hvilke typer partikkelnedbør som er viktige for kjemien i atmosfæren. For å avgjøre dette bruker vi lange tidsserier med bakkeobservasjoner samt atmosfære- og klimamodeller. Energetisk proton- og elektronnedbør kan påvirke kjemien og dynamiske prosesser i atmosfæ...
