El Ni帽o influences the formation of low pressure systems over the Gulf Stream (01.11.2016)
Analysis of cyclone tracks and precyclogenesis flow conditions show us that El Ni帽o can shift the preferred cyclogenesis position over the Gulf Stream which influences the cyclone鈥檚 track across the North Atlantic. The results are published in the Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences.

Driven by the wind (26.09.2016)
The Gulf Stream transports warm water towards Northern Europe. This flow is driven by northward flows replacing water that sink in the Norwegian Sea, but also by the wind blowing over the sea. In some regions, the wind can be the strongest driver. Carina Bringedal studies the role of the winds at the entrance of the Norwegian Sea

A decade ahead (26.09.2016)
What if we could predict how much sea ice there will be in the Nordic Seas in two years? Or twenty? In the gap between ordinary weather forecasts and climate projections, there is a dialog between the ocean and the atmosphere. Without understanding how they interact, we cannot predict variations in climate, says Marius 脜rthun.

Warm water governs winter ice (26.09.2016)
North Pole explorers send summer photos of melt water pools and cracks that become harder and harder to cross. If they had winter expeditions, they would see that ice covers as much of the Arctic Ocean as in the past. Only the Barents Sea and the region just north of Svalbard have lost winter ice.
Erwin Lambert
The entire ocean in three boxes (26.09.2016)
Sometimes things are so complicated that you're forced to think simple. Erwin Lambert is an expert at that. With a few, plain boxes he tries to calculate how a rainy future will influence Atlantic currents.
