Snow avalanches are a common hazard experienced in many mountainous environments around the world during the winter months. It is therefore often of great importance to be able to predict these events to reduce the risk ...

Rainfall induced landslides is one of the most common natural hazard worldwide. Intensive rainfall and rapid snow melting caused the two landslides in Jordalsdalen in Fjærland in Western Norway. Debris flow is a global ...

Aerosol particles , such as sulfate aerosols, can act as cloud condensation nuclei (CCN). The CCN spectrum and water vapor supply in a cloud determine the cloud droplet number concentration (CDNC) and hence shortwave optical ...

I denne oppgaven er det utført en nedsynkningsanalyse av Oslo og omegn, basert på ERS SAR satellittbilder fra perioden 1992 til 2000. Analysene er utført med PSInSAR-teknikken som muliggjør interferometriske undersøkelser ...

I denne oppgaven ble kalibrerings funksjonene i Photomodeler og Nlhbunt vurdert for bruk innenfor nærfotogrammetriske formål på Universitetet i Oslo. Universitetet i Oslo disponerer et digitalt Canon kamera og et analogt ...

Diatom analyses were carried out on two sediment cores, one from the North Labrador Sea and one from Davis Strait, West Greenland, in order to investigate Holocene climatic variability in relation to ocean circulation. ...

Abstract The study was mainly focused on the development of the Late Cenozoic shelf outbuilding in the northern North Sea and offshore mid-Norway. Principles of seismic sequence stratigraphy were applied as a tool to ...

This study comprises a geological reservoir characterization of paralic sandstone deposits with a case study of the Upper Jurassic Louriñha Formation in the Lusitanian Basin, which is an Atlantic rift basin located in ...

In October 2005, massive slope failures were triggered all around Guatemala by the heavy rainfall that accompanied Hurricane Stan and unchained a series of landslides, debris flows and lahars. Two communities called Panabaj ...

In this study of the Central Spitsbergen Palaeogene, depositional environments and transgressive-regressive developments of the Frysjaodden and Hollendardalen formations have been reconstructed with combined evidence from ...
