Traditional Sámi snow terminology and physical snow classification—Two ways of knowing
(Journal article, 2012)Humans describe the natural environment on the basis of their local experience and their interactions with nature in terms of its relevance to their daily lives. These descriptions are incorporated into local languages and ... -
Transferring avalanches between paths
(NGI Publication;203, Chapter, 1998)Estimates of exceedance probabilities of runout lengths of avalanches for a specific path can rarely be based on measured avalanches in that slope alone, if they are to become statistically reliable. Thus one has, directly ... -
Transformative adaptation through nature-based solutions: a comparative case study analysis in China, Italy, and Germany
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023) -
Transport infrastructure and geotechnical engineering: ELGIP position paper
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The European Large Geotechnical Institutes Platform (ELGIP) is a group of 14 European research organizations, leading in geotechnical engineering, which aims to promote internationally the profession, its network and its ... -
Triaksialforsøk på snø
(NGI-rapport;58101-03, Research report, 1978-01-01)Vinteren 1978 ble det montert triaksialapparatur på NGI's skredstasjon i Grasdalen. I midten av mars ble det kjørt en serie forsøk. Undersøkelsene må betraktes som pilotforøk, og ikke tillegges en så stor nøyaktighet. ... -
Tropospheric BrO column densities in the Arctic derived from satellite: retrieval and comparison to ground-based measurements
(Journal article, 2012)During polar spring, halogen radicals like bromine monoxide (BrO) play an important role in the chemistry of tropospheric ozone destruction. Satellite measurements of the BrO distribution have become a particularly useful ... -

Tsunami generation by potential, partially submerged rockslides in an abandoned open-pit mine: The case of Black Lake, Québec, Canada
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)The Black Lake rockslide is located on the east wall of an open pit mine initially operated by LAB Chrysotile near Thetford Mines, Québec. Movements were observed in July 2012 when a volume of 20 M m³ was mobilized, ... -

Twenty-five years of snow and avalanche research at NGI: Geotechnique contributions.
(NGI Publication;203, Chapter, 1998)In this paper, I wish to review the far reaching contributions from snow and avalanche research at NG! over the last 25 years. My review is based on my own association with the research at NGI (24 years) as well as the ... -
Ultimate Limit States of Foundation on Random Unsaturated Soils
(Chapter, 2019)This paper investigates stochastically the case of a shallow foundation resting on unsaturated heterogeneous soil under rainfall infiltration. Porosity is assumed to vary spatially while other soil parameters are constant. ... -

Undersøkelser av kjemisk utlekking og biota på testfelt på sjøbunnen i Grenlandsfjordene 2018-2019
(NIVA-rapport, Research report, 2019)Denne rapporten beskriver overvåking av spredning og biotilgjengelighet av dioksiner (PCDD/F), heksaklorbenzen (HCB) og oktaklorstyren (OCS) i de ni årene fra etablering av testfelt for tynnsjikt-tildekking i Grenlandsfjordene ... -
Undrained Shear Strength of Overconsolidated Clay
(NGI Publication;209, Chapter, 2022)It has been known for a long time now that in soft and sensitive clays undrained failure occurs apparently before the full friction angle has been mobilized. The main object of this paper is to clarify the importance of ... -
The upgraded full-scale avalanche test-site Ryggfonn, Norway.
(The International Snow Science Workshop (ISSW) Proceedings;, Chapter, 2010)Measurements of full-scale avalanches are expensive and time consuming, but are indispensable to gain in-depth understanding of the flow behavior of avalanches. They are needed to crosscheck the scaling used in small-scale ...
