(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2017)Background: The Eocene was the warmest epoch of the Cenozoic and recorded the appearance of several orders of modern mammals, including the first occurrence of Euprimates. During the Eocene, Euprimates were mainly represented ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2011)We discuss the capability of current state-of-the-art chemistry and transport models to reproduce air quality trends and interannual variability. Documenting these strengths and weaknesses on the basis of historical ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2012)The first aircraft-based observations of an Icelandic dust storm are presented. The measurements were carried out over the ocean near Iceland's south coast in February 2007. This dust event occurred in conjunction with an ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2018)Recent studies show that the noise recorded by seismic sensors can be used to characterize the seismic structure in the area where the sensors are located. This is called ambient noise tomography. In this thesis, data from ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2012)The Southern part of Ringvassøy- Loppa Fault Complex is an extensional fault complex separating the Hammerfest Basin and the Tromsø Basin. Basement movements are believed to have caused the fault complex to work as a long- ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2018)I denne studien blir en alternativ metode for landformsklassifikasjon basert på mønstergjenkjenning utforsket. Målet er å undersøke om en kan finne ulikheter, ved hjelp av denne metoden som kalles “geomorphons”, i ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2015)Samandrag Tradisjonelle massebalansemålingar med stakar og tettleiksprøver har vore utført i Noreg i over 50 år. Hellstugubreen, som denne oppgåva tek føre seg, har ein av dei lengste massebalanseseriane i Noreg. Massebalansen ...

(Master thesis / Group thesis / Masteroppgave / Gruppeoppgave, 2016)It is well known that cyclonic and anticyclonic eddies are numerous in the Skagerrak. Nevertheless a systematic analysis of their statistics appears to be missing. This is the topic of the present thesis in which we ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2019)The purpose of the thesis is to establish a baseline discrete fracture network model for the area leading up from the back scarp to Flosteinbba above the unstable rock slope at Åknes. The model is intended to identify the ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2019)Svalbard is an archipelago of islands covering an area of around 61000 km2 north of the Arctic Circle. The region is heavily glaciated, with more than 2100 glaciers covering around 59% of its total area. In a process known ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2016)In recent years, water shortage is becoming one of the most serious problems in the Poyang Lake. In this paper, the long-term water balance items of the Poyang Lake have been analyzed to reveal the coupling effects of Three ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2018)The identification and measurement of ground deformations in urban areas is of great importance for determining the vulnerable parts of the cities that are prone to geohazards, which is a crucial element of both sustainable ...

(Research report / Forskningsrapport, 2000)
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2018)This thesis explores the meteorology in an urban area during a winter period and how well a numerical model is able to represent it. The air quality in the cities is of large interest to the citizens and policymakers. ...
-
(Doctoral thesis / Doktoravhandling, 2018)Rock salt creeps under shear at the low temperatures encountered close to the surface. Salt flow is problematic for any cavity, like caverns or wells, because of the time dependent closure it induces if the internal hole ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2006)The study area of this work belongs to continental margin offshore Angola. Despite the large amount of data acquired, the geometries of subsalt sedimentary layers and lower crustal structure offshore Angola remain much ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2010)Abstract This study describes the contribution of anthropogenic factors for groundwater pollution in the urban environment of developing countries. Dire Dawa is one of the oldest urbanized and densely populated city in ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2017)The basal topography is largely unknown beneath most glaciers and ice caps, and many attempts have been made to estimate a thickness field from other more accessible information at the surface. Here, we present a two-step ...
