The ARCFRESH project team

Ole Baltazar Andersen (Technical University of Denmark (DTU)) is responsible for guiding the project’s scientific and technical activity. Project Manager Daniele Fantin (S&T) is responsible for the management and execution of the work to be performed, and for the coordination of the consortium’s work. The project draws on the scientific expertise of the partners below.

Technical University of Denmark (DTU)

Role: Prime contractor and scientific lead. DTU oversees sea level and ice sheet data analysis, contributing to ST1 (lateral fluxes) and ST3 (extreme events) research. Leader of WP2, WP6 and WP7 (co-led with S&T)

Norwegian Research Centre (NORCE)

Role: Leads ocean modeling with TOPAZ5, focusing on ST2 (pan-Arctic and sub-regional budgets) and contributing to ST3 (extreme events). Leader of WP5.

Norwegian Meteorological Institute (METNO)

Role: Provides sea ice expertise, enhancing CCI Sea Ice datasets for ST1 (fluxes) and ST3 (extreme events).

Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute (SMHI)

Role: Leads river discharge analysis using Arctic-HYPE, contributing to ST1 (fluxes) and ST2 (budgets).

Science [&] Technology Corporation (S&T)

Role: Project management, project reporting and document control. Co-leader of WP7 (co-led with DTU).

Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC)

Role: Supports sea ice motion analysis and validation, aiding ST1 (fluxes) and ST3 (extreme events).

Nansen Environmental and Remote Sensing Center (NERSC)

Role: Oversees uncertainty characterisation, developing tools for error propagation across all STs. Leader of WP4.

National Physical Laboratory (NPL)

Role: Oversees uncertainty characterisation, developing tools for error propagation across all STs. Leader of WP4.
