(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-05-03)
      Variability in sea ice conditions, combined with strong couplings to the atmosphere and the ocean, lead to a broad range of complex sea ice dynamics. More in-situ measurements are needed to better identify the phenomena and mechanisms that govern sea ice growth, drift, and breakup. To this end, we have gathered a dataset of in-situ observations of sea ice drift and waves in ice. A total of 15 ...
    • Estimating a mean transport velocity in the marginal ice zone using ice-ocean prediction systems 

      Sutherland, Graig; Martins de Aguiar, Victor Cesar; Hole, Lars Robert; Rabault, Jean; Dabboor, Mohammed; Breivik, Øyvind (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-06-01)
      Understanding the transport of objects and material in the marginal ice zone (MIZ) is critical for human operations in polar regions. This can be the transport of pollutants, such as spilled oil, or the transport of objects, such as drifting ships and search and rescue operations. For emergency response, the use of environmental prediction systems are required which predict ice and ocean parameters ...
    • Experiments on turbulence from colliding ice floes 

      Løken, Trygve Kvåle; Marchenko, Aleksey; Ellevold, Thea Josefine; Rabault, Jean; Jensen, Atle (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-06-16)
      Increased knowledge about energy dissipation processes around colliding ice floes is important for improved understanding of atmosphere-ice-ocean energy transfer, wave propagation through sea ice, and the polar climates. The aim of this study is to obtain such information by investigating colliding ice floe dynamics in a large-scale experiment and directly measuring and quantifying the turbulent ...
    • OpenMetBuoy-v2021: An Easy-to-Build, Affordable, Customizable, Open-Source Instrument for Oceanographic Measurements of Drift and Waves in Sea Ice and the Open Ocean

      There is a wide consensus within the polar science, meteorology, and oceanography communities that more in situ observations of the ocean, atmosphere, and sea ice are required to further improve operational forecasting model skills. Traditionally, the volume of such measurements has been limited by the high cost of commercially available instruments. An increasingly attractive solution to this ...
