1. Mass Balance of the High-Arctic Glacier Nordenskiöldbreen, Svalbard, in a Changing Climate
Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapsläraSammanfattning : Melting glaciers are the major contributor to sea level rise. Glaciers are sensitive indicators of climate change and current experience strong developments in a rapidly warming Arctic environment. LÄS MER
2. The Ability of Regional Climate Models to Simulate Weather Conditions on Nordenskiöldbreen, Svalbard
Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapsläraSammanfattning : In this project, we analyse the ability of two regional climate models to simulate meteorological conditions on Nordenskiöldbreen, a glacier in Svalbard. To do so, regional climate model output is compared with in situ measurements from an automatic weather station. LÄS MER
3. Meteorological Conditions on Nordenskiöldbreen Glacier, Svalbard (2009 – 2015)
Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperSammanfattning : Glacial environments in the Arctic are a much-studied topic as well as a field of research with strong influences regarding the current and future global climate of our planet. This report is focused on the meteorological conditions on Nordenskiöldbreen glacier from 2009-2015 and how they correlate with each other, the glacier surface and the surrounding terrain. LÄS MER
4. Seasonal Velocities on Nordenskiöldbreen, Svalbard
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperSammanfattning : Global warming leads to increased precipitation in the Arctic, as warmer air can carry more moisture. The consequence is that many arctic glaciers get steeper slopes over time as increased melt at their lower part causes thinning and increased solid precipitation in their upper regions leads to thickening of the glacier.

5. Long-term glacier mass balance of Nordenskiöldbreen, Svalbard
Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperSammanfattning : The global warming that’s taking place have an impact over the Earth and the glaciers on Svalbard are undergoing rapid changes as a result. The annual air temperature has been rising on Svalbard since the early 1900’s and in a climate projection expected temperatures continue to rise. LÄS MER
