• Effect of Oil Pollution and Ice Formation on Microbial Community of Seawater from Ofotfjorden, Norway 

      Dang, Nga Phuong; Willassen, Nils Peder; O'Sadnick, Megan Eileen; Petrich, Christian (Chapter, 2018)
      Oil spill in ice-covered waters can become entrapped in sea ice and may be subjected to biodegradation by sea ice microorganisms. The extent of the hydrocarbon biodegradation, and microorganisms involved in such process ...
    • Experimental and Micro-CT study on the Oil Distribution in laboratory grown Sea Ice 

      Salomon, Martina Lan; Arntsen, Martin; Dang, Nga Phuong; Maus, Sønke; O'Sadnick, Megan; Petrich, Christian; Schneebeli, Martin; Wiese, Mareike (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)
      Increasing activities in Arctic waters bare a risk of oil spills under ice-covered conditions and afford sound understanding of the interplay between sea ice and oil. Towards better knowledge, this study focuses on X-ray- ...
    • Laboratory In-situ Burns of Oil on Ice 

      Petrich, Christian; Dang, Nga Phuong; Fritt-Rasmussen, Janne; Gustavson, Kim (Chapter, 2018)
      Oil spills in ice-covered waters pose unique challenges to remediation activities. In-situ burning is a potential remediation technique that has shown promising efficiency in earlier trials. An element of arctic in-situ ...
    • Measurements to Estimate the Downward Heat Flux from a Burning Oil Pool 

      Petrich, Christian; O'Sadnick, Megan Eileen; Dang, Nga Phuong; Stakkeland, Linda Marie; Kristiansen, Steffen (Chapter, 2018)
      Oil spills in ice-covered waters pose unique challenges to remediation activities. In-situ burning is a potential remediation technique that has shown promising efficiency in earlier trials. An element of in-situ burning ...
    • 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 ...
    • The Entrainment and Migration of Crude Oil in Sea Ice, the Use of Vegetable Oil as a Substitute, and Other Lessons from Laboratory Experiments 

      O'Sadnick, Megan Eileen; Petrich, Christian; Dang, Nga Phuong (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)
      Understanding the interaction between oil and sea ice is essential in the development of oil spill detection and response technology in the Arctic. Laboratory experiments were performed to examine oil migration in sea ice ...
    • The EU Horizon 2020 project GRACE: integrated oil spill response actions and environmental effects 

      Jørgensen, Kirsten S.; Kreutzer, Anne; Lehtonen, Kari; Kankaanpää, Harri; Rytkönen, Jorma; Wegeberg, Susse; Gustavson, Kim; Fritt-Rasmussen, Janne; Truu, Jaak; Kouts, Tarmo; Lilover, Madis-Jaak; Seiler, Thomas-Benjamin; Hollert, Henner; Johann, Sarah; Marigómez, Ionan; Soto, Manu; Lekube, Xabier; Jenssen, Bjørn Munro; Ciesielski, Tomasz Maciej; Wilms, Lonnie B.; Högström, Rune; Pirneskoski, Mika; Virtanen, Seppo; Forsman, Björn; Petrich, Christian; Dang, Nga Phuong; Wang, Feiyue (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      This article introduces the EU Horizon 2020 research project GRACE (Integrated oil spill response actions and environmental effects), which focuses on a holistic approach towards investigating and understanding the hazardous ...
