How Is the Ocean Anthropogenic Carbon Reservoir Filled?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)About a quarter of the total anthropogenic CO2 emissions during the industrial era has been absorbed by the ocean. The rate limiting step for this uptake is the transport of the anthropogenic carbon (Cant) from the ocean ... -
How many metazoan species live in the world's largest mineral exploration region?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The global surge in demand for metals such as cobalt and nickel has created unprecedented interest in deep-sea habitats with mineral resources. The largest area of activity is a 6 million km2 region known as the ... -
How microbial food web interactions shape the arctic ocean bacterial community revealed by size fractionation experiments
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)In the Arctic, seasonal changes are substantial, and as a result, the marine bacterial community composition and functions differ greatly between the dark winter and light-intensive summer. While light availability is, ... -
How pathogens affect the marine habitat use and migration of sea trout (Salmo trutta) in two Norwegian fjord systems
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Wild fish are confronting changing pathogen dynamics arising from anthropogenic disturbance and climate change. Pathogens can influence animal behaviour and life histories, yet there are little such data from fish in the ... -
The hydrological cycle and ocean circulation of the Maritime Continent in the Pliocene: results from PlioMIP2
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)The Maritime Continent (MC) forms the western boundary of the tropical Pacific Ocean, and relatively small changes in this region can impact the climate locally and remotely. In the mid-Piacenzian warm period of the Pliocene ... -
Hydrological impact of Middle Miocene Antarctic ice-free areas coupled to deep ocean temperatures
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Oxygen isotopes from ocean sediments (δ18O) used to reconstruct past continental ice volumes additionally record deep water temperatures (DWTs). Traditionally, these are assumed to be coupled (ice-volume changes cause DWT ... -
Hypoxia-tolerant zooplankton may reduce biological carbon pump efficiency in the Humboldt current system off Peru
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)In the ocean, downward flux of particles produced in sunlit surface waters is the major component of the biological carbon pump, which sequesters atmospheric carbon dioxide and fuels deep-sea ecosystems. The efficiency of ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
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 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 ... -
An improved routing algorithm for a large-scale distributed hydrological model with consideration of underlying surface impact
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Large-scale hydrological models are important tools for simulating the hydrological effect of climate change. As an indispensable part of the application of distributed hydrological models, large-scale flow routing methods ... -
Improving interpretation of sea-level projections through a machine-learning-based local explanation approach
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Process-based projections of the sea-level contribution from land ice components are often obtained from simulations using a complex chain of numerical models. Because of their importance in supporting the decision-making ...
