Which types of particle precipitation matter in the middle atmosphere?

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

Seasonal dynamics of sympagic meiofauna in a high-Arctic fjord

Sea ice plays a vital role in the Arctic ecosystem with many organisms of all sizes depending on it as a habitat, feeding, breeding and nursery ground. Brine channels that form through the ejection of salt from the freshwater lattice during the formation of sea ice, offer a unique habitat for spe...

The process of snow-ice formation and its impact on young Arctic sea ice, RiS-ID 10915

The Arctic region is experiencing a change from thick multiyear to much younger and thinner sea ice. In many places, increasing precipitation is leading to higher snow loads on young sea ice. Hence seawater can infiltrate the snow layer through pathways in the ice or from the side. Consequently p...
