R2D2 – Solar renewable energy development in Svalbard
The R2D2 project, a core part of Arthur Garreau’s PhD research at the Arctic Technology Department, was conducted in collaboration with UNIS. During my internship, I contributed to this initiative, which focuses on adapting solar energy systems to the extreme Arctic environment of Svalbard and addressing renewable energy challenges in high-latitude regions. Context As Longyearbyen…

Exploring Hydrographic Patterns and Circulation in the Isfjorden Trough
This report, part of the 2023 AGF214 field report, investigates hydrographic patterns and water circulation in the Isfjorden Trough, Spitsbergen, using data collected in September 2023 by the research vessel Helmer Hanssen under the guidance of the University Centre in Svalbard (UNIS). This study, conducted in collaboration with Amanda Skogjordet, focuses on understanding how Atlantic…

Solar Radiation for Renewable Energy Production at Kapp Linné
Within the Polar Meteorology and Climate course at the University Center in Svalbard (UNIS) I got to work with Mathilde Bøkevoll, Laura Kruizenga and Vårin Følling Sørensen under the supervision of Arthur Garreau on the renewable energy at Kapp Linné based on our field work week at the beginning of September 2023. This project brought…

Arctic Ground Penetrating Radar Survey
Picture : Gunnhild Næss In this project, I used Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) to investigate subsurface structures at a 2018 landslide site in Longyearbyen, Svalbard. The survey aimed to support predictive models for natural disasters, such as landslides, by mapping sedimentary layers and potential bedrock features. Conducting the study in steep, rocky terrain presented physical…

Amplitude-Division Interferometers: Fabry-Pérot, Michelson, Mach-Zehnder…
As part of the curriculum at INSA Rouen Normandie, I contributed to a hands-on project focused on amplitude-division interferometers, including the Fabry-Pérot, Michelson, and Mach-Zehnder systems. Under the guidance of Dr. David Honoré, our team investigated the theoretical foundations and practical applications of these optical instruments, which are pivotal in fields like spectroscopy, telecommunications, and…
