Norway is an ice prone country, but currently, no organized atmospheric icing research related infrastructure exists in Norway. This project aims to make a base to build up research expertise infrastructure for atmospheric icing, and to establish a base for future Norwegian icing center of expertise hosted by UiT and make this an international research hub to address icing related issues. This will also help to strengthen Norway’s international research collaboration on atmospheric icing related topics through working with international institutes, experts, and participation in international research initiatives. Researchers from IVT and NT faculty will jointly participate in this multi-disciplanary research project.
The nICE Project is funded by Norwegian Research Council (FRIPRO- Fellesløft IV) with total funding of 27.5 mNOK (2,7 mEuro)
