Available master’s projects

I have the following master’s project available. Contact me if you are interested in any of these or have some of your own ideas:

Sporadic E layers in the Polar Cap Ionosphere
Application of the apparent impedance approach to identify the physical nature of cusp transients and waves
Polar Research Doppler Experiment – a new instrument for the detection of upper atmospheric waves

EISCAT Radar Responsibilities

Responsible for the allocation of experimental time on the EISCAT radars for the Norwegian science community.

Deputy Board member for the Norwegian EISCAT-3D committee.

Aurora-like fragments: From fascinating discovery to understanding

The goal of this project is to investigate the causes of newly discovered aurora-like features known as "fragments" using radar, optical measurements, and photographs from citizen scientists. The project seeks to understand the plasma instabilities driving these phenomena and assess their impact on satellite drag, GPS accuracy, and radio signal disruptions.
