Fonnbu, a new (old) platform for snow and avalanche research.
(The International Snow Science Workshop (ISSW) Proceedings;, Chapter, 2008)One of the first tasks of the newly established avalanche group at the NGI in 1973 was the selection of a suitable location for an avalanche research station. The choice was on Grasdalen, north of the Jotunheimen mountains, ... -
Forcasting snow avalanche days from meteorological data using classification trees; Grasdalen, Western Norway
(The International Snow Science Workshop (ISSW) Proceedings;, Chapter, 2006)Avalanches pose one of the most serious problems to infrastructure and people in the mountains in Norway. Processes leading to avalanche release are deterministic but the time and place of avalanche release is notoriously ... -
Forecast of avalanche danger for the intracontinental regions of Northeast of Eurasia
(NGI Publication;203, Chapter, 1998)The research area includes the Kolyma riverhead with tributaries. For this territory the extreme continental climate with very frost winters is common. The duration of snow cover is 200-230 days. The domination of low ... -

Forecasting the fatal Longyearbyen avalanche. Possibilities and challenges
(The International Snow Science Workshop (ISSW) Proceedings;, Chapter, 2016)One of the main questions after the fatal avalanche in Longyearbyen in December 2015, where two persons perished and eleven houses were destroyed, was whether an active avalanche warning system would have identified the ... -
Formation and availability of methylmercury in mercury-contaminated sediment: effects of activated carbon and biochar amendments
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Purpose As the formation of toxic and bioaccumulative methylmercury (MeHg) in Hg-contaminated sediments is of great concern worldwide, suitable remediation options are needed. Activated carbon (AC) amendment is a contested ... -
Formulation of non-coaxial plastic dissipation and stress–dilatancy relations for geomaterials
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Stress–dilatancy theories play a central role in the modeling of the plastic dissipation of geomaterials. There exist several mathematical frameworks for describing the stress–dilatancy behavior of soils. One of the limiting ... -
Forprosjekt Ren Frier
(NIVA-rapport, Research report, 2024)Rapporten benytter simuleringer til å utrede bidraget som f.eks. skipstrafikk inkl. oppankringsaktivitet, har på spredning av dioksinforbindelser fra sjøbunnen i Frierfjorden, samt effekten av tiltak i havne- og ... -
Foundation model 1 - 1D an 3D parallel coupled models
(NGI Rapport;20150014-04-R, Report, 2017-01-20)The report presents a macro elements model developed to calculate p-y soil and foundation response during cyclic loading. The concept of parallel coupling of linear elastic perfectly plastic sub-models. One is model ... -
Fourfold Increase in Pumpkin Yield in Response to Low-Dosage Root Zone Application of Urine-Enhanced Biochar to a Fertile Tropical Soil
(Journal article, 2015)A widely abundant and invasive forest shrub, Eupatorium adenophorum, was pyrolyzed in a cost-efficient flame curtain kiln to produce biochar. The resulting biochar fulfilled all the requirements for premium quality, according ... -
Fracture attribute scaling and connectivity in the Devonian Orcadian Basin with implications for geologically equivalent sub-surface fractured reservoirs
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Fracture attribute scaling and connectivity datasets from analogue systems are widely used to inform sub-surface fractured reservoir models in a range of geological settings. However, significant uncertainties are associated ... -
Fragility Assessment of Transportation Infrastructure Systems Subjected to Earthquakes
(Chapter, 2018)This paper provides a review of the different methodologies for the fragility assessment of critical transportation infrastructure subjected to earthquake excitations with emphasis placed on geotechnical effects. Available ... -
Fragility of transport assets exposed to multiple hazards: State-of-the-art review toward infrastructural resilience
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Vulnerability is a fundamental component of risk and its understanding is important for characterising the reliability of infrastructure assets and systems and for mitigating risks. The vulnerability analysis of infrastructure ... -

Frictional Properties and Seismogenic Potential of Caprock Shales
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Fractures and faults are critical elements affecting the geomechanical integrity of CO2 storage sites. In particular, the slip of fractures and faults may affect reservoir integrity and increase potential for breach, may ... -
From Ecological Risk Assessments to Risk Governance. Evaluation of the Norwegian Management System for Contaminated Sediments
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2010)Managing of contaminated sediments is a complex process that will naturally have to balance scientific, political, and economic interests. This study evaluates the Norwegian system for managing contaminated sediments toward ...
