A new working paper explains how such a study could be approached, and provides access to a few basic models programmed in Python.
UiB's election campaigns are in full swing. But what do the two teams think about sustainability? How do we address big global and local challenges through our research, education and outreach? What are UiB's strengths and what can be improved?
In this debate, organized by CET, the Sustainability Pilots, and CeSAM, we ask Margareth Hagen, Sigrunn Eliassen, Lise Øvreås and Endre Tvinnereim... Read more
Subina Shrestha defended her PhD thesis on 17.12.2024 at the University of Bergen. The thesis title is Sustainability Beyond Optimization - Public-private actor interactions in urabn logistics governance.
News about climate change can seem intangible and difficult to grasp. Two new studies reveal how we understand and interpret climate news.
This autumn, CET researchers had three articles accepted for publication in Nature-journals. – This is a result of a dedicated focus on quality in publication over time, says CET Director Håvard Haarstad.

In CeSAM's interdisciplinary seminar series 2024-2025, we tackle big and small questions at the intersection between nature and politics. We take the Norwegian perspective as our starting point and put an interdisciplinary spotlight on Norway's implementation of the nature agreement. All welcome!
The collaborative project ECOBUDGETS will explore ways to integrate climate and nature budgets into administrative and political decisions at the municipal and county levels.
What can society do when climate change takes away crafts, traditions, knowledge about nature, and other intangible aspects of cultural heritage? Daniel Puig, a researcher at the Centre for Climate and Energy Transformation, is researching this question.
New research from the Centre for Climate and Energy Transformation (CET) and Chalmers University of Technology shows that a large CCS expansion and strong policy and investment efforts are essential to fulfil the climate targets in the Paris Agreement.
The Antarctic ice shelves – the floating glaciers surrounding most of the continent – are melting from below as oceanic currents bring warm water into the cavity. But how and how fast is the ice melting? In this Ocean Science Bar, you will learn why Antarctic ice shelves matter, about what happens below them, and about what it’s like to do fieldwork ”down south”.
This week we have welcomed master's students Finn Corus, Ingvild Kjelsvik and Lina Seldal.
Light is probably the most varying environmental variable in pelagic ecosystems, and the most ignored in ecological studies. In this Ocean Science Bar, you will learn how light structures the distribution of zooplankton and fish.
CET Professor II Siddharth Sareen will receive the Nils Klim Award this week for his research in environmental social sciences. What makes his research unique is a commitment to impact beyond publication points and citations.
Yan Li, an associate professor at the Department of Mathematics and Bjerknes Centre for Climate Research, has been working on developing theoretical models to predict the occurrence probability of so-called “rogue waves” or “freak waves.” These waves can be approximately three times higher than the average wave height and are extremely dangerous for ships and other marine operations.
Brooke Wilkerson defended her PhD thesis on 19.12.2023 at the University of Bergen. The thesis title is "Systems approaches to sustainability: Innovation and social-ecological-technological systems.
Jesse Benjamin Schrage defended his thesis PhD thesis on 20.2.2024 at the University of Bergen. The thesis' title is: "Practicing urban climate governance: Organisational work and energy demand reduction in Nordic cities"
In my PhD project, I study the imaginaries and praxes around solar energy rollout in Rajasthan, India.
