      Johansen, Kåre; Sollid, Magne-Petter; Gudmestad, Ove Tobias (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-09)
      One consequence of the declining ice cover in the Arctic is increased areas of open seas. These new open sea areas lead to some challenging aspects related to ship stability. Longer fetch lengths, associated with build-up of larger waves followed by increased conditions for sea spray icing on vessels is one aspect. Open seas in combination with cold atmospheric temperatures is a prerequisite for ...
