Projects
The Nansen Center is a project oriented international research centre focusing on the basic research within marine environment and ocean forecasting, satellite remote sensing and climate studies and modelling. Our research is funded by projects granted through competitive calls by research councils, space agencies, EU, national and international government agencies, industry and private donations.
Some of our on-going research projects are listed below. The list is being populated with the most recent and on-going projects and later updated with other major completed research projects.
Ongoing Projects
URSA-MAJOR
-
Climate Dynamics and Prediction
URSA-MAJOR will redress of education and training for Smart-City development.
COMBINED
-
COMBINED is to enhance understanding of the accelerated Arctic and TP's warming processes at different timescales, explore the two-pole feedback mechanisms addressing
their combined impact, and to advance Eurasian climate prediction.
DEWPAD
-
Analyse EURO-CORDEX to create a dataset of extreme winds and extreme precipitation.
PARCIM
-
Climate Dynamics and Prediction
SKD-PARCIM is a strategic project at the Bjerknes Center for Climate Research (2022-2025) that combines novel model devellopements, improved paleoproxy observations, and understanding of multidecadal climate variability. Paleo-proxy observations will be used to produced an online climate reanalysis of the past milenium. They will also be used to mitigate long lasting model bias in climate models.
4SICE
-
Climate Dynamics and Prediction
4SICE is a four-year project co-funded by the Research Council of Norway and the Ministry of Science and Technology of China.
MAPARC
-
Climate Dynamics and Prediction
Mechanism and prediction of the new Arctic climate system
BASIC
-
Climate Dynamics and Prediction
To understand the consequences of more open Arctic sea water in summer and increasing ice-growth in winter for the Arctic and Eurasian climate
TARDIS
-
A project bigger on the inside.
PECO2
-
Ocean and Sea Ice Remote Sensing
The PECO2 project is funded by the Research Council of Norway INPART program for 3-years from 2021 through 2023 and shall strengthen international partnerships in operational oceanography and marine services.
SEAMLESS
-
The overall objective of SEAMLESS is to provide CMEMS with new capabilities to deliver indicators of climate-change impacts and food security in marine ecosystems.

Completed Projects
NCKS
-
This is a collaboration project to support ongoing and planned collaboration with the Danish Meteorological Institute
PredictingNorwegianExtremeSeaLevel
-
To develop a sea-level indicator that can be used to predict near-term (decadal) changes in extreme sea-level variability along the Norwegian coast.
FyB
-
Float Your Boat vil sette ut 400 trebåter på sjøisen i Arktis for å følge deres bevegelser med vind og havstrømmer fra Polhavet og ut i det Nordiskehavet som en del av skoleundervisning i naturfag.
Arctic Synthesis
-
This is a short project to support a synthesis paper on the Nordic seas led by M Miles
VOLCANOES4CMIP
-
To develop moethodologies for incorporating plausible future volcanic erruptions into CMIP climate projections.
AMTEC
-
Developing a synthesis paper on Eruasian cooling and Arctic to mid-latitude teleconnections.
Arktalas
-
The Arktalas project aims to remove knowledge gaps and advance the insight and quantitative understanding of sea ice, ocean and atmosphere interactive processes and their mutual feedback
MUDYFEET
-
Developing tools to investigate multi-scalar dynamics of extreme precipitation events over Norway.
AOIP
-
This project is about improving our understanding of some atmosphere-ocean-ice interaction processes, as well as our ability to model them and their impact
CAATEX
-
Two sound sourcs in fixed moorings will transmit a signal which will be received on listen cables in 5 fixed moorings and four drifting drifting receivers hundreds of kilometers away from the sound sources.
