Drilling waste minimization in the Barents Sea [PDF]

2014 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management, 2014
With the increasing demand for energy over recent decades, the Arctic region has become an interesting area for future exploration and development. The Arctic region has a harsh and sensitive environment at a remote location. Hence, effective handling and management of waste is becoming essential to ensure fulfillment of health, safety, environmental ...

A Continuous Seismostratigraphic Framework for the Western Svalbard-Barents Sea Margin Over the Last 2.7 Ma: Implications for the Late Cenozoic Glacial History of the Svalbard-Barents Sea Ice Sheet

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Here we present a high-resolution, continuous seismostratigraphic framework that for the first time, connects the over 1,000 km long western Svalbard-Barents Sea margin and covers the last ∼2.7 million years (Ma).

Barents Sea ice cover reflects Atlantic inflow [PDF]

, 2011
The recent Arctic winter sea-ice retreat is most pronounced in the Barents Sea. Using available observations of the Atlantic inflow to the Barents Sea and results from a regional ice-ocean model we assess the role of inflowing heat anomalies on sea-ice ...

Impact of data assimilation on Arctic sea‐ice thickness variability and its coupling with atmospheric forcing

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We document for the first time how the assimilation of CS2SMOS observations improves the model representation of Arctic sea‐ice thickness (SIT) and its variability: biases are reduced (top row), while excessive variability in the Beaufort Sea and lack of variability in the ice pack are both corrected (bottom row).

Flow‐pattern evolution of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet indicated by the subglacial lineation record over Norway, Sweden and Finland

Boreas, EarlyView.
We present a 25‐stage reconstruction of the ice‐flow pattern evolution of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet based on mapping and analysis of ~240 000 subglacial lineations and lineation fields across Norway, Sweden, Finland, and parts of NW Russia. Our reconstruction uses a glacial geomorphological inversion approach, in which we generated 611 individual ...

Palaeoglaciations in the Polar and Subpolar Ural Mountains

Boreas, EarlyView.
The Ural Mountains form a major physiographic boundary between the East European Plain and West Siberia, both repeatedly glaciated during the Pleistocene by the Barents–Kara ice sheet. Although the present‐day topography reflects significant glacial modification, the extent, chronology and interaction of mountain glaciers with the Barents–Kara ice ...

STOCHASTIC OPTIMIZATION FOR MULTISPECIES FISHERIES IN THE BARENTS SEA [PDF]

Natural Resource Modeling, 2014
AbstractWe present a multispecies stochastic model that suggests optimal fishing policy for two species in a three‐species predator–prey ecosystem in the Barents Sea. We employ stochastic dynamic programming to solve a three‐dimensional model, in which the catch is optimized by using a multispecies feedback strategy.

Basin Architecture and Lithospheric Structure of the Barents Sea Region from Geophysical Modelling [PDF]

, 2012
This thesis provided a new understanding of the lithospheric structural setting and anomalies observed in the greater Barents Sea. The Barents Sea has been focus of attention for geological and economical reason since the 70ies-80ies.

Impact of Environmental Conditions on the Spawning Migration of Sea Trout (Salmo trutta L.) in Two Large, Sub‐Arctic River Systems

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global decline in salmonid stocks has increased the need for knowledge of local adaptations and life history strategies of salmonids. In this study, we used radio‐telemetry tracking data from sea trout populations in two large high‐latitude rivers to model upstream spawning migration speed of trout in response to prevailing environmental ...

Interannual variability of the Barents Sea branch water in the northeastern part of the Barents Sea and the St. Anna Trough

Frontiers in Marine Science
In this work, we describe the inter-annual variability of the Barents Sea branch water (BSBW), which is one of the main branches of the Atlantic water that flows from the North Atlantic to the Western Arctic.
