"Keep things moving" is one way of describing my activities. Sometimes it means getting equipment ready, namely, the labs' submersibles ROVs AUVs and ASVs, the scientific instruments that are mounted on them for example, to measure light, to bring sediments from the sea bottom, or to study the ice in the Arctic.
When I am not on the workshop, then my team and I plan together. We ellaborate projects with specific research questions. Logistics go all the way from large mobilizations to the details of the activities in the field, including safety and risk management.
My core is an engineering team called AURlab. There you find knowledgeable people that specializes in autonomous marine operations and systems to make science, and sometimes to support industrial and technological advancement. I have had the privilege and responsability of lærling and student supervision as well.
My fieldwork is mostly on ships, in cruises, or in land-based marine campaings with telemetry infrastructure to control our assets that are placed somewhere far away in the sea. The following lists some of those large impact projects where I have had the opportunity to participate: the CAGE cruise 2016 with UiT was a geolocial survey of the Barents sea. In 2017, with DCNS (now Naval Group in France) we tested a sound "curtain". Kontiki II on 2015 was an interdisciplinary cruise on a non-standard research vessel with NIVA. Finally, the Arctic ABCD project had a set of expeditions to put instruments all around the planet's northern ice cap.
