KLIMAFORSK-Stort program klima

Relevant, reliable and robust local-scale climate projections for Norway

R3 var et innovativt forsøk på å gi klimatjenester på lokal skala i Norge. Norge er preget av store regionale forskjeller i geografi og klima. Å fremskaffe troverdige prognoser for klimaendringer på lokalt nivå har vært, og er fortsatt, svært utfordrende. R3 brukte en integrert tilnærming som tok...

Reducing fossil energy use and CO2 emissions from transport by paving the way for more bicycles and e-bikes

En vesentlig reduksjon i energiforbruket fra transport i Norge kan ikke oppnås uten å øke andelen som benytter bærekraftige transportformer, særlig gåing og sykling. I prosjektet gjør vi en kvantitativ vurdering av formell og uformell sykkelinfrastruktur. Vi har samlet inn data om sykkelinfras...

Late-glacial and present landscape evolution following deglaciation in a climate-sensitive High Arctic region

The slopes of the Kongsfjorden area have been developing since their respective time of deglaciation. Since the deglaciation history in this area is known quite well (Henriksen et al., 2014), one can use a space for time substitution to investigate landscape change as a function of time. Landscap...
