1. Ocean circulation in the Amundsen Sea, West Antarctica
Sammanfattning : The increase of mass loss from the Antarctic Ice Sheet is a significant contribution to global sea level rise. The most rapid changes are occurring in the Amundsen Sea area, where the thinning of the floating glaciers is assumed to be driven by the ocean. LÄS MER
2. Tracing pathways in the ocean circulation : A temperature and salinity perspective
Sammanfattning : The ocean circulation plays an essential role in our climate system. It redistributes heat, salt, carbon and other tracers across the globe, making the climate of Earth more moderate. This thesis targets density differences that are driving the ocean circulation. These differences are caused by changes in temperature and salinity. LÄS MER
3. Parallelization of the HIROMB ocean model
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
4. Implementation and Analysis of Air-Sea Exchange Processes in Atmosphere and Ocean Modelling
Sammanfattning : To understand and to predict the weather and climate, numerical models are important tools and it is crucial that the controlling processes are described correctly. Since 70% of the global surface is covered with water the description how the ocean and atmosphere communicates has a considerable impact. LÄS MER
5. From Corals to Corporations : Social-ecological dynamics in the Anthropocene ocean
Sammanfattning : The ocean has always been of paramount importance for the development of human civilisation. Today more than ever, the prospect of a new era of ‘blue growth’ poses great sustainability and governance challenges as marine ecosystems worldwide face unprecedented cumulative pressures from local human impacts, global climate change and distal socioeconomic processes.
