• Contamination of 8.2 ka cold climate records by the Storegga tsunami in the Nordic Seas 

    Bondevik, Stein; Risebrobakken, Bjørg; Gibbons, Steven J.; Rasmussen, Tine Lander; Løvholt, Finn (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-04-04)
    The 8200-year BP cooling event is reconstructed in part from sediments in the Norwegian and North Seas. Here we show that these sediments have been reworked by the Storegga tsunami – dated to the coldest decades of the 8.2 ka event. We simulate the maximum tsunami flow velocity to be 2–5 m/s on the shelf offshore western Norway and in the shallower North Sea, and up to about 1 m/s down to a water ...

S.; Humphreys, Elizabeth M.; Mäntylä, Elina; Hallgrimsson, Gunnar Thor; Gilg, Olivier; Ehrich, Dorothee; Calladine, John; Hammer, Sjúrður; Harris, Sarah; Lang, Johannes; Vignisson, Sölvi Rúnar; Kolbeinsson, Yann; Nuotio, Kimmo; Sillanpää, Matti; Sittler, Benoit; Sokolov, Aleksandr; Klaassen, Raymond H. G.; Phillips, Richard A.; Tulp, Ingrid (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-03-22)
    Background Migratory birds generally have tightly scheduled annual cycles, in which delays can have carry-over effects on the timing of later events, ultimately impacting reproductive output. Whether temporal carry-over effects are more pronounced among migrations over larger distances, with tighter schedules, is a largely unexplored question. <p><p>Methods We tracked individual Arctic Skuas ...
  • NordVulk 1974-2024 

    Sturkell, Erik; Schomacker, Anders (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024)
    Nordisk Vulkanologisk Institut, senare känt som Nordisk Vulkanologisk Center (NordVulk) på Island fyller 50 år 2024. Tyvärr sammanfaller jubileet med att NordVulk upphör i sin nuvarande form och en lång och framgångsrik era med nordisk vulkanologisk forskning på Island tar slut. Här berättar vi lite om NordVulks historia och bifogar några korta anekdoter från livet där.
  • Glacial-interglacial sedimentation control on gas seepage exemplified by Vestnesa Ridge off NW Svalbard margin 

    Rasmussen, Tine Lander; Nielsen, Tove (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-04-08)
    Vestnesa Ridge is built-up of thick contourites mainly deposited during the last ∼5 million years. Methane leaks from deep gas reservoirs creating pockmarks on its crest, and which have been the focus of numerous studies. Sedimentation patterns in relation to the pronounced changes in oceanography and climate of the last glacial-interglacial cycles and its possible impact of seepage of gas have ...
  • Cross-linguistic effects in grammatical gender assignment and predictive processing in L1 Greek, L1 Russian, and L1 Turkish speakers of Norwegian as a second language 

    Johannessen, Janne Bondi; Lundquist, Björn; Rodina, Yulia; Tengesdal, Eirik; Kaldhol, Nina Hagen; Türker, Emel; Fyndanis, Valantis (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-03-21)
    The present study examines grammatical gender knowledge in offline production (gender marking on indefinite articles) and online gender processing (visual world paradigm) in adult second language (L2) learners of Norwegian with three different first languages (L1s): Greek, Russian, and Turkish. In particular, it investigates the role of the following factors: (1) presence vs. absence of grammatical ...
