Climate scientist Eystein Jansen has been elected vice-president of the European Research Council (ERC). He is the first Norwegian researcher to join the leadership of the elite division for European research.

Predicting future fisheries is possible only if the present conditions are known. An international team of scientists works to reduce the South Atlantic's lag behind the North.

Climate models produce enormous amounts of data. These are too large to handle for ordinary people, and too costly to run on large super computers. A new cooperation on machine learning and AI looks to solve the problem.

Here you can find digital posters and sources for the BAM poster session.

For the first time, the impact of global warming on the Atlantic Niño has been addressed.  The result, published in Nature Climate Change, shows a strong weakening of the sea surface temperature variability. This implies less variations in sea surface temperatures in the future and will affect weather and fisheries along the coast lines on both sides of the South Atlantic Ocean.

The Nansen Center is organizing a symposium in the name of colleague and friend Yongqi Gao who passed away in the summer of 2021. His legacy lives on in many ways, bringing together researchers from China, Norway and elsewhere.

New data by ICOS confirms that natural carbon sinks such as the ocean and forests are not stable. Climate change makes these sinks more vulnerable, in some cases even turning them into carbon emitters. This compromises current climate targets and action plans.

Arctic Ocean Amplification implies that the physical environment and marine life in the Arctic Ocean will face marked changes in the future unless climate change can be timely alleviated. 

Inès Ollivier researches the deep ice in Antarctica, on the hunt for a greater understanding of our polar past. In this podcast she talks about her research, and her full-year stay on the ice sheets of Antarctica.

Natives of Greenland and the Pacific lead different lives, but have one thing in common. Both communities are strongly affected by climate change.

Large changes in temperature 50 million years ago surprises researchers. Past greenhouse climates were associated with warmer and more variable deep ocean temperatures than previously thought.

Gliders repeat the surveys of the 1970s, what is new since then?

How climate change is affecting Norwegian fjords new study aims to answer. 

When a fishing vessel sets course for Bear Island, the captain knows only which areas are ice-covered now, not where the ice will be tomorrow. In a few years, sea ice predictions will make routing easier and safer.

In the Arctic, sea ice covers most of the ocean surface. What happens when the Arctic is changing? In a new UNEP Foresight Brief, we revisit and gathers the latest knowledge. 

In a large-scale airplane campaign researchers will follow water molecules from take-off till landing.

During November 2021, the SDG313 course addressing climate change and sustainability was brought to a new floating campus. Professor Kerim Nisancioglu speaks about the field trip in this podcast.

The North Icelandic Irminger Current may be seen as the Gulf Stream’s little finger. Follow this finger to its tip in Stefanie Semper's account of her new study.

While in most earlier climate models, the water flowing into the Nordic Seas was too cold, current models represent both the water temperature and the resulting heat transport better.
