• Does your lab use social media? Sharing three years of experience in science communication 

      Pavlov, Alexey K.; Meyer, Amelie; Rösel, Anja; Cohen, Lana; King, Jennifer; Itkin, Polona; Negrel, Jean; Gerland, Sebastian; Hudson, Stephen R.; Dodd, Paul A.; de Steur, Laura; Mathisen, Stig; Cobbing, Nick; Granskog, Mats A. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-06-27)
      Effective science communication is essential to share knowledge and recruit the next generation of researchers. Science communication to the general public can, however, be hampered by limited resources and a lack of incentives in the academic environment. Various social media platforms have recently emerged, providing free and simple science communication tools to reach the public and young people ...
    • On the potential of hand-held GPS tracking of fjord ice features for remote-sensing validation 

      Negrel, Jean; Gerland, Sebastian; Doulgeris, Anthony Paul; Lauknes, Tom Rune; Rouyet, Line (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-12-14)
      Research on young thin sea ice is essential to understand the changes in the Arctic. But it is also the most challenging to investigate, both in situ and from satellites. If satellite remote sensing techniques are developing rapidly, fieldwork remains crucial for the mandatory validation of such data. In April 2016, an Arctic fieldwork campaign was conducted at Kongsfjorden, Svalbard. This campaign ...
    • Validation of SAR Iceberg Detection with Ground-Based Radar and GPS Measurements 

      Akbari, Vahid; Lauknes, Tom Rune; Rouyet, Line; Negrel, Jean; Eltoft, Torbjørn (Peer reviewed; Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2018-11-05)
      Calving of icebergs at the tidewater glacier fronts is a component of the mass loss in Polar regions. Studying the regional distribution of icebergs, their volume, motion, and interaction with the environment is of interest. Here, we present the results from a fieldwork campaign conducted in Kongsfjorden, Svalbard in April 2016, where both satellite and ground-based remote sensing instruments were ...
