Long-term effects of thin layer capping in the Grenland fjords, Norway: Reduced uptake of dioxins in passive samplers and sediment-dwelling organisms
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The Grenlandfjords in South East Norway are severely contaminated with dioxins from a magnesium smelter operated between 1950 and 2001. In 2009, the proposal of thin-layer capping as a potential mitigation method to reduce ... -
Long-term forecasting of changes of snowiness and avalanche activity in the world due to global warming
(NGI Publication;203, Chapter, 1998)The technique of definition of depth of the snow cover, number of days with the snow cover, number of days with intensive snowfalls, duration of avalanche prone period by the standard meteorological data (precipitation and ... -
Longyearbyen, Svalbard - Vulnerability and risk management of an arctic settlement under changing climate - a challenge to authorities and experts
(The International Snow Science Workshop (ISSW) Proceedings;, Chapter, 2016)Longyearbyen, the administrative centre of the Svalbard archipelago, is facing most types of natural hazards under a changing Arctic climate. The catastrophic avalanche in December 2015 led NGI to review our professional ... -
Looking Beyond the Powder/Dense FlowAvalanche Dichotomy
(Journal article, 2018-03-04)Köhler et al. (2018, https://doi.org/10.1002/2017JF004375) deploy a high spatial and temporal resolution GEODAR radar system to reveal the inside of snow avalanches over the entire slope. They detect a rich variety of ... -

Main aspects of deformation and rock support in Norwegian road tunnels
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The general geology of Norway makes most of its tunnels to be constructed mainly in strong rock intersected by weakness zones of different sizes and characteristics. The Norwegian support tradition is, to the largest degree ... -
Mangekanters bevegelse på skråplan
(NGI-rapport;58500-04, Research report, 1988-09-22)NGI har en nasjonal forpliktelse til å drive forskning og rådgivningsarbeid innenfor fagfeltet skred. Aktuelle skredtyper er kvikkleireskred, andre løsmasseskred, snøskred og steinskred. Dette forskningsprosjektet berører ... -
Mapping tsunami impacts on land cover and related ecosystem service supply in Phang Nga, Thailand
(Journal article, 2013)The 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami caused damages to coastal ecosystems and thus affected the livelihoods of the coastal communities who depend on services provided by these ecosystems. The paper presents a case study on ... -

Mathematical modeling of dense avalanches
(NGI Publication;203, Chapter, 1998)The paper presents a brief overview of mathematical models for dense avalanches that were developed by researchers of Moscow State University. Examples of calculations for real avalanches in Caucasus and Khibiny Mountains ... -
Maximum frontal speeds, alpha angles and deposit volumes of flowing snow avalanches
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)Approximate maximum frontal speeds from 89 snow avalanches were analyzed to yield probabilistic estimates of maximum speed scaled with path length parameters. In addition to speeds, 88 companion values of runout for the ... -
Måleresultater etter fullskala sprengningsforsøk – hvor kraftige vibrasjoner tåler en bygning før det oppstår skader
(Conference object, 2019)Grenseverdier for sprengningsvibrasjoner fastsettes på grunnlag av NS 8141 Vibrasjoner og støt. Bergsprengning kan gi så kraftige vibrasjoner at det forårsaker skader på tilstøtende byggverk. Det er imidlertid sjelden at ... -
