    Prakash, Abhay; Zhou, Qin; Hattermann, Tore; Kirchner, Nina (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2025-05-06)
    Increased basal melting of the Petermann Ice Shelf is typically attributed to rising ocean temperatures. While subglacial discharge is known to intensify basal melt, the underlying mechanisms and their evolution in a warming climate remain unresolved. Using a 3-D numerical regional ice shelf–ocean model centered on the Petermann Fjord, we identify a regime shift in heat flux efficiency within the ...

  • Epistemic Security and the Monopoly on Knowledge 

    Bartoszewicz, Monika Gabriela (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024)
    If there is one universally known quote from Thomas Hobbes, it is his assertion that without security “there is no place for industry [...] no arts; no letters; no society; and which is worst of all, continual fear, and danger of violent death; and the life of man, solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short.” Indeed, in the Western context, security is typically construed as freedom from harm and/or ...
  • The Role of Ballasting, Seawater Viscosity and Oxygen-Dependent Remineralization for Export and Transfer Efficiencies in the Global Ocean 

    Karakus, Onur; Nissen, Cara; Volker, Christoph; Hagen, Wilhelm; Iversen, Morten; Oziel, Laurent; Gürses, Özgür; Hauck, Judith (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2025-05-05)
    The particulate organic carbon (POC) flux from the euphotic zone to the deep ocean is central to the biological carbon pump. It is typically evaluated using “export efficiency” and “transfer efficiency,” which reflect POC formation and sinking and carbon sequestration efficiency in the ocean's interior, respectively. Since observations of these metrics are limited, biogeochemical models can elucidate ...
