    • The Arctic Amplification and Its Impact: A Synthesis through Satellite Observations 

      Ezau, Igor; Pettersson, Lasse h; Cancet, Mathilde; Chapron, Bertrand; Chernokulsky, Alexander; Donlon, Craig James; Sizov, Oleg; Soromotin, Andrei; Johannessen, Johnny Andre (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-02-28)
      Arctic climate change has already resulted in amplified and accelerated regional warming, or the Arctic amplification. Satellite observations have captured this climate phenomenon in its development and in sufficient spatial details. As such, these observations have been—and still are—indispensable for monitoring of the amplification in this remote and inhospitable region, which is sparsely covered ...
    • Exploring the Potential of Sentinel-1 Ocean Wind Field Product for Near-Surface Offshore Wind Assessment in the Norwegian Arctic 

      Khachatrian, Eduard; Asemann, Patricia; Lihong, Zhou; Birkelund, Yngve; Ezau, Igor; Ricaud, Benjamin (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-01-24)
      The exploitation of offshore wind resources is a crucial step towards a clean energy future. It requires an advanced approach for high-resolution wind resource evaluations. We explored the suitability of the Sentinel-1 Level-2 OCN ocean wind field (OWI) product for offshore wind resource assessments. The SAR data were compared to in situ observations and three reanalysis products: the global ...
    • Using web GIS to promote stakeholder understanding of scientific results in sustainable urban development: A case study in Bergen, Norway 

      Miles, Victoria; Ezau, Igor; Pettersson, Lasse H. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-10-23)
      This paper highlights the importance of improving stakeholder understanding of environmental factors such as air quality and the urban heat island effect to achieve sustainable development goals. While accurate spatial and temporal environmental data are critical for sustainable solutions, the challenge lies in translating complex environmental information for non-specialists. To solve this problem, ...
