Analysis of storm surge events along the Norwegian coast
Observed extreme sea levels are caused by a combination of extreme astronomical tide and extreme storm surge, or by an extreme value in one of these variables and a moderate value in the other.

Time- and depth-wise trophic niche shifts in Antarctic benthos [PDF]
Climate change is expected to affect resource-consumer interactions underlying stability in polar food webs. Polar benthic organisms have adapted to the marked seasonality characterising their habitats by concentrating foraging and reproductive activity ...

Candy Chemosynthesis: Biochemistry of Hydrothermal Vents [PDF]
In this activity, students will differentiate between requirements for life in extreme environments such as hydrothermal vents and other environments and will use soft candy as a model to create a visual image of chemicals involved in autotrophic ...

Transcription, signaling receptor activity, oxidative phosphorylation, and fatty acid metabolism mediate the presence of closely related species in distinct intertidal and cold-seep habitats [PDF]
Bathyal cold seeps are isolated extreme deep-sea environments characterized by low species diversity while biomass can be high. The Hakon Mosby mud volcano (Barents Sea, 1,280 m) is a rather stable chemosynthetic driven habitat characterized by prominent

Natural hazards in Australia: sea level and coastal extremes [PDF]
The Australian coastal zone encompasses tropical, sub- and extra-tropical climates and accommodates about 80 % of Australia’s population. Sea level extremes and their physical impacts in the coastal zone arise from a complex set of atmospheric, oceanic and terrestrial processes that interact on a range of spatial and temporal scales and will be ...

Estimating extreme sea levels combining systematic observed skew surges and historic record sea levels [PDF]
<p>The estimation of the sea levels with a high return period is crucial for coastal planning and the assessment of coastal flooding risk. Coastal facilities are designed to very low probabilities of failure and hence the design values are affected by significant uncertainties.

ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...

Sea-level change and storm surges in the context of climate change [PDF]
This paper reviews the latest research in New Zealand surrounding the issues of sea-level rise and extreme sea levels in the context of global warming and variability in the Pacific-wide El Nino– Southern Oscillation (ENSO).

Changes in the mesoscale variability and in extreme sea levels over two decades as observed by satellite altimetry [PDF]
A data set of precise radar altimeter sea surface heights obtained from the same 10-day repeat ground track has been analysed to determine the magnitude of change in the ocean ‘mesoscale’ variability over two decades.
