Statsraaden Bar & Reception, Bradbenken 2, Bergen

Welcome to Ocean Science Bar Thursday 22nd of May at 1900 in Statsraaden Bar & Reception!

(Note the change of date - we normally have Ocean Science Bar the last Thursday of the month but had to make an exception here)

Bergen at the turning point: Sea Level Change, One Tide at a Time?

How much has the sea around Bergen risen recently? Is it going to keep rising – and how fast? And what does Greenland have to do with it? Sea level isn’t as steady as it might seem. It moves, slowly but surely. The factors driving these changes are complex, and understanding them is key to knowing what’s ahead for Bergen.

In this talk, Konstanze Haubner (University of Bergen, SEAS fellow) and Kristin Richter (NORCE) explore how and why the ocean is slowly reshaping the Norwegian coast. Drawing on research focused on regions like Greenland and Western Norway, they reveal the forces behind sea level change - and what it means for Bergen.

Join us for a talk and a pint, meet colleagues and get an update on the latest ocean research - welcome to all! Please help spread the word in your group.

Stormtracks group meeting

Hi everyone, We’ll have our last Stormtracks group meeting of the semester this Wednesday (10.12) from 13:00 to 14:00 in U105. This week Ozan will give a talk on Results from Impetus4Change and EuroCordex simulations of regional climate with WRF. We’ll also have our holiday social with sweets! The meeting will be hybrid and you can join remotely via Zoom: https://uib.zoom.us/j/62886269543?pwd=ajWbi97zr0hbniaoQdZkUtD2EUSSri.1 Meeting ID: 628 8626 9543 | Password: qSKTfKU3 The meeting schedule for this semester is in the following google doc and we’ll have new schedule for next semester soon. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1yjicxkFp_8Y17LVftgksb1SnqSUSUXogg0pOFZfbK0g/edit?usp=sharing See you all there! :) Cheers, ~Hari and Yangfan

BCCR Monday Seminar: "Vertical carbon export during an under-ice phytoplankton bloom in the Chukchi Sea".

The last BCCR Monday Seminar of the year will be given next Monday (December 15th) by Robert Pickart from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. He will present his work on "Vertical carbon export during an under-ice phytoplankton bloom in the Chukchi Sea". Abstract In order to quantify pelagic-benthic coupling on high-latitude shelves it is imperative to identify the different physical mechanisms by which phytoplankton are exported to the sediments. In June-July 2023, a field program documented the evolution of an under-ice phytoplankton bloom on the northeast Chukchi shelf. Here we use in-situ data from the cruise, a simple numerical model, historical water column data, and ocean reanalysis fields to characterize the physical setting and describe the dynamically-driven vertical export of chlorophyll associated with the bloom.
