    • Burst statistics of fluctuations in a simple magnetized torus configuration 

      Rypdal, Kristoffer; Živkovic, Tatjana; Østvand, Lene (Working paper; Arbeidsnotat, 2009-04-19)
      In a toroidal plasma confined by a purely toroidal magnetic field the plasma transport is governed by electrostatic turbulence driven by the flute interchange instability on the low-field side of the torus cross section. In this paper we revisit experimental data obtained from the Blaamann torus at the University of Tromso. On time-scales shorter than the poloidal rotation time, the time series of ...

    • Long-range memory in internal and forced dynamics of millennium-long climate model simulations 

      Østvand, Lene; Nilsen, Tine; Rypdal, Kristoffer; Divine, Dmitry, V.; Rypdal, Martin wibe (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2014)
      Northern Hemisphere (NH) temperature records from a palaeoclimate reconstruction and a number of millennium-long climate model experiments are investigated for long-range memory (LRM). The models are two Earth system models and two atmosphere–ocean general circulation models. The periodogram, detrended fluctuation analysis and wavelet variance analysis are applied to examine scaling properties ...

    • Statistical significance of rising and oscillatory trends in global ocean and land temperature in the past 160 years 

      Østvand, Lene; Rypdal, Kristoffer; Rypdal, Martin Wibe (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2014-03-20)
      Various interpretations of the notion of a trend in the context of global warming are discussed, contrasting the difference between viewing a trend as the deterministic response to an external forcing and viewing it as a slow variation which can be separated from the background spectral continuum of long-range persistent climate noise. The emphasis in this paper is on the latter notion, and a general ...
