Contamination of 8.2 ka cold climate records by the Storegga tsunami in the Nordic Seas
(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 ... -

Glacial-interglacial sedimentation control on gas seepage exemplified by Vestnesa Ridge off NW Svalbard margin
(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 ... -
New cold seep sites on the continental slope southwest to Svalbard
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-04-09)We discovered seafloor features such as bacterial mats and carbonate crusts typical for active methane seeps on the continental slope southwest of Svalbard. These features are associated with two main northwest-southeast trending morphological structures that are oriented parallel to the regional continental slope. Both structures occur at c. 800 m water depth, at the boundary between the Storfjorden ... -
Beyond the Oberbeck-Boussinesq and long wavelength approximation
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2022-12-22)We present the first simulations of a reduced magnetized plasma model that incorporates both arbitrary wavelength polarization and non-Oberbeck–Boussinesq effects. Significant influence of these two effects on the density, electric potential and <i><b>E</i></b> × <i><b>B</i></b> vorticity and non-linear dynamics of interchange blobs are reported. Arbitrary wavelength polarization implicates so-called ... -

The first reduction of the tris(2-hydroxybenzophenone)iron(III) complexes follow the same trend as that of the free, uncoordinated ligands and bis(2-hydroxybenzophenone)copper(II) complexes. The first reduction of the iron(III) complexes occur at a potential ... -
Quantifying Intramolecular Basis Set Superposition Errors
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-08-18)We show that medium-sized Gaussian basis sets lead to significant intramolecular basis set superposition errors at Hartree–Fock and density functional levels of theory, with artificial stabilization of compact over extended conformations for a 186 atom deca-peptide. Errors of ∼80 and ∼10 kJ/mol are observed, with polarized double zeta and polarized triple zeta quality basis sets, respectively. Two ... -

Influence of a rigid backstop on the flow pattern during thrusting of the supracrustal Balsfjord Series of the North Norwegian Caledonides
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-03-17)The Caledonian evolution of the low–medium grade Balsfjord Series (Troms, Northern Norway) is characterized by four sets of deformation structures that developed progressively during burial and exhumation from underneath the high-grade Nakkedal and Tromsø nappe complexes. The Balsfjord Series commonly displays top-to-the SSE–SE directed movement during the development of the main metamorphic fabric ... -
Persistence of Holocene ice cap in northeast Svalbard aided by glacio-isostatic rebound
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-03-29)The deglaciation of the Svalbard-Barents Sea Ice Sheet was driven by relative sea-level rise, the incursion of North Atlantic waters around Spitsbergen, and increasing summer insolation. However, ice retreat was inter rupted by asynchronous re-advances that occurred into high relative seas, during a period associated with warm regional waters and elevated summer temperatures. Better understanding ... -
