Professor II in Physical oceanography / Head of Division for Oceanography and Marine Meteorology at The Norwegian Meteorological Institute

My scientific work is motivated by the potential for observing systems and forecast models to improve safety and reduce the environmental impact of human activities at sea.

The Division for Oceanography and Marine Meteorology at the Norwegian Meteorological Institute is located in the main building together with the Geophysical Institute. We are responsible for the national wave forecasting (WaveWatch III and WAM) and dispersion modelling (using the OpenDrift code to simulate oil spills, search and rescue, pollution, drifting ships, etc) for Norwegian waters. We also build and maintain climate archives of the atmosphere, ocean waves and water level (the NORA3 archive).

We have at all times several MSc and PhD students working on topics relevant to the national weather service, with a special focus on ocean waves and wave climate, marine dispersion modelling and marine climate. Please get in touch if you want to know what sorts of topics we can offer.
