The Iceland-Faroe warm-water flow towards the Arctic estimated from satellite altimetry and in situ observations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The inflow of warm and saline Atlantic water to the Arctic Mediterranean (Nordic Seas and Arctic Ocean) between Iceland and the Faroes (IF inflow) is the strongest Atlantic inflow branch in terms of volume transport and ... -
Identification of tolerance levels on the coldwater coral Desmophyllum pertusum (Lophelia pertusa) from realistic exposure conditions to suspended bentonite, barite and drill cutting particles
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Cold-water coral (CWC) reefs are numerous and widespread along the Norwegian continental shelf where oil and gas industry operate. Uncertainties exist regarding their impacts from operational discharges to drilling. Effect ... -
Identifying robust bias adjustment methods for European extreme precipitation in a multi-model pseudo-reality setting
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Severe precipitation events occur rarely and are often localised in space and of short duration, but they are important for societal managing of infrastructure. Therefore, there is a demand for estimating future changes ... -
Impact and detectability of hypothetical CCS offshore seep scenarios as an aid to storage assurance and risk assessment
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Carbon Capture and Storage has the potential to make a significant contribution to the mitigation of climate change, however there is a regulatory and societal obligation to demonstrate storage robustness and minimal local ... -
Impact of Deep Water Formation on Antarctic Circumpolar Transport During Gateway Opening
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Ambiguity over the Eocene opening times of the Tasman Gateway and Drake Passage makes it difficult to determine the initiation time of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current. If the Tasman Gateway opened later than Drake Passage, ... -
The impact of DNA extract homogenization and replication on marine sediment metabarcoding diversity and heterogeneity
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Metabarcoding of environmental DNA (eDNA) is an attractive complement to morphological methods for surveys and routine monitoring of marine sediment benthic communities. However, metabarcoding and other genetic techniques ... -
The Impact of Fine-Scale Currents on Biogeochemical Cycles in a Changing Ocean
(Peer reviewed, 2023)Fine-scale currents, O(1–100 km, days–months), are actively involved in the transport and transformation of biogeochemical tracers in the ocean. However, their overall impact on large-scale biogeochemical cycling on the ... -
The impact of lateral boundary forcing in the CORDEX-Africa ensemble over southern Africa
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)The region of southern Africa (SAF) is among the most exposed climate change hotspots and is projected to experience severe impacts across multiple economical and societal sectors. For this reason, producing reliable ... -
Impact of mantle convection and dynamic topography on the Cenozoic paleogeography of Central Eurasia and the West Siberian Seaway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)The West Siberian Seaway connected the Tethys to the Arctic Ocean in the Paleogene and played an important role for Eurasian-Arctic biogeography, ocean circulation, and climate. However, the paleogeography and geological ... -
Impact of Mountains in Southern China on the Eocene Climates of East Asia
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Inconsistencies in the Eocene climates of East Asia have been revealed in both geological studies and simulations. Several earlier reconstructions showed an arid zonal band in mid-latitude China, but others showed a humid ... -
Impact of runoff temporal distribution on ice dynamics
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Record highs of meltwater production at the surface of the Greenland ice sheet have been recorded with a high recurrence over the last decades. Those melt seasons with longer durations, larger intensities, or with both ... -
Impact of solar irradiance and geomagnetic activity on polar NOx, ozone and temperature in WACCM simulations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The response of the atmosphere to solar irradiance and geomagnetic activity is analyzed in experiments with the Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model (WACCM) under idealized forcings. Four experiments are carried out ... -
Impact of strong and extreme El Niños on European hydroclimate
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The question of European hydroclimate anomaly associated with El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is revisited by composite analyses on data from Dai et al.’s Palmer Drought Severity Index, the Old World Drought Atlas ... -
Impacts of UV irradiance and medium-energy electron precipitation on the North Atlantic oscillation during the 11-year solar cycle
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Observational studies suggest that part of the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) variability may be attributed to the spectral ultra-violet (UV) irradiance variations associated to the 11-year solar cycle. The observed ... -
Impaired Growth Performance of Wami Tilapia Juveniles (Oreochromis urolepis) (Norman, 1922) Due to Microplastic Induced Degeneration of the Small Intestine
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Microplastics-induced histopathological changes in gastrointestinal tracts of fish have been widely reported. However, the translation of adverse effects in the gut to impacts on growth are understudied. This study ... -
Impaired short-term functioning of a benthic community from a deep Norwegian fjord following deposition of mine tailings and sediments
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)The extraction of minerals from land-based mines necessitates the disposal of large amounts of mine tailings. Dumping and storage of tailings into the marine environment, such as fjords, is currently being performed without ... -
Implications of temperature overshoot dynamics for climate and carbon dioxide removal policies in the DICE model
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Assessing climate policies that involve temporary overshoot of temperature targets requires an accurate representation of carbon cycle and climate dynamics. Here, we compare temperature overshoot climate policies obtained ... -
An improved routing algorithm for a large-scale distributed hydrological model with consideration of underlying surface impact
