Current status

I am now an associate professor at the Geophysical Institute and the bergen Offshore wind centre (BOW) at the University of Bergen (UiB).

Interests

Boundary layer meteorology:

- Characterization of the coherence of turbulence above the sea and in Norwegian fjords.
- Influence of the topography on the mean and turbulent flow characteristics.
- Synthetic turbulence generation in the atmospheric surface layer.
- Influence of the blocking by the surface on the spectral characteristics of turbulence.

Wind engineering:

- Turbulent wind load modelling on long-span bridges.
- Data-driven modelling for structural dynamics.
- Full-scale vibration analysis.

Lidar remote sensing of wind:

- Can scanning Doppler wind lidars measure turbulence?.
- Study of the flow around bridges with short-range and long-range wind lidar instruments.
