GoNorth - utforsking av Polhavet 2025-2035

GoNorth har sitt opphav i Kontinentalsokkelkommisjonen i FNs aksept av 2009 for det norske kravet om en utvidet sokkel i det høye nord. Kunnskapen om sokkelen er begrenset. Ettersom en utvidet sokkel også medfører forvaltningsansvar for de tilgjengelige og potensielle ressursene, økosystemene og ...

Forprosjekt for Framtidens Polhav

Verdens øyne rettes nå mot Polhavet, hvor isen som har dekket dette havområdet i hundretusenvis om ikke millioner av år nå forsvinner raskt som en konsekvens av global oppvarming. Et isfritt Polhav vil møte oss om sommeren om bare noen få tiår. Også under havoverflaten foregår det store endringer...

MEltwater release of heavy meTALs from gLacIer to ocean in a Changing Arctic

Isbreer beveger seg som elver av is, som tar opp vann som snø om vinteren og som slipper smeltevannet til fjorder og hav om sommeren. Oppvarmingen av Arktis, som er fire ganger det globale gjennomsnittet, får isbreene til å krympe og øke utslippet av smeltevann til fjordene. Tidligere antok en at...
