    • Ice extent in sub-arctic fjords and coastal areas from 2001 to 2019 analyzed from MODIS imagery 

      O'Sadnick, Megan Eileen; Petrich, Chris; Brekke, Camilla; Skardhamar, Jofrid (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Results examining variations in the ice extent along the Norwegian coastline based on the analysis of Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) images from 2001 to 2019,February through May, are presented. A ...
    • Ice Formation in Norwegian Fjords – Findings from the 2018 - 2019 Field Season 

      O'Sadnick, Megan; Petrich, Chris; Kleven, Øystein; Skardhamar, Jofrid; Brekke, Camilla (Chapter, 2020)
      Understanding ice conditions in fjords is imperative to ensure safe operations and to protect the surrounding environment. Seven fjords in northern Norway were visited in March 2019, six with significant ice cover. In each ...
    • Mosideo/cirfa tank experiments on behavior and detection of oil in ice 

      Petrich, Christian; O'Sadnick, Megan Eileen; Brekke, Camilla; Myrnes, Marianne; Maus, Sønke; Salomon, Martina Lan; Woelk, Sofie; Grydeland, Tom; Jenssen, Rolf-Ole Rydeng; Eicken, Hajo; Oggier, Marc; Ferro-Famil, Laurent; Harkati, Lekhmissi; Rebane, Ott; Reimer, Nils (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      In the Arctic, presence of sea ice presents a challenge to safe and sustainable operations. To optimize planning and minimize impact of inadvertent oil spills, oil-in-ice experiments were performed at the HSVA Arctic ...

    • Observations of Ice Conditions and Properties in Norwegian Fjords during the Winter of 2018 and Implications for Oil Spill Response 

      O'Sadnick, Megan Eileen; Petrich, Christian; Kleven, Øystein; Brekke, Camilla; Skarðhamar, J.; Dang, Nga Phuong (Chapter, 2018)
      As the arctic opens to more development and increasing ship traffic, coastlines are at greater risk of oil pollution resulting from these operations. Fjords are one feature common throughout the arctic, with many dotting ...
    • Polarimetric analysis of oil contaminated laboratory grown saltwater ice imaged by a ground based SAR 

      Myrnes, Marianne; Brekke, Camilla; Ferro-Famil, Laurent; Petrich, Christian (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)
      In this paper we present preliminary experimental results from a ground based SAR system imaging artificially grown saltwater ice induced with crude oil. The data is acquired from a large scale laboratory experiment conducted ...
    • The effect of vertical mixing on the horizontal drift of oil spills 

      Röhrs, Johannes; Dagestad, Knut-Frode; Asbjørnsen, Helene; Nordam, Tor; Skancke, Jørgen; Jones, Cathleen; Brekke, Camilla (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-12-21)
      Vertical and horizontal transport mechanisms for marine oil spills are investigated using numerical model simulations. To realistically resolve the 3-D development of a spill on the ocean surface and in the water column, ...
