Research group Circulation and connection land-sea-atmosphere

Over long timescales, the circulation systems co-evolve with ice sheets, mountain ranges, and redistributions of carbon between the atmosphere, ocean and land. The circulation and associated feedbacks influence exchanges of energy and materials between compartments of the climate system, and create teleconnections and natural climate variability.

Our research explores mechanisms that dynamically connect land, sea, and atmosphere, and how they impact on climate.

Research topic include interactions between marine biota and clouds in the Arctic, teleconnections and atmospheric waves, and the past and future evolution of the North Greenland Ice Sheet.

In our research, we use data from observation systems such as satellites and the icebreaker Oden, as well as modelling and laboratory experiments.
