Research

Jostein Bakke (JB) holds a position as a Professor at the Department of Earth Science and is a member of the Quaternary Research group and director for the Centre for Integrated Earth Science Education (iEarth) and leader of EARTHLAB (national infrastructure).

JB is Dr Scient (PhD) in Physical Geography from the Department of Geography at the University of Bergen. JB has research experience in Quaternary geology, physical geography, glacial history, palaeoclimatology, geomorphology, and lake sediments worldwide. JB defended his doctor Scientiarum thesis ”Late Weichselian and Holocene glacier fluctuations along a coastal south-north transect in Norway – climatic and methodological implications” 16.04.2004 at the Department of Geography, University of Bergen.

JB has supervised 73 master's and 12 PhD students, extensive teaching experience from 11 courses, published 74 papers in international peer-reviewed scientific journals, reports, popular science articles and 103 conference papers at international conferences.

JB holds the Fulbright Arctic Chair Award for the academic year 2011/2012.

JB was funded through an NRC project called SOUTHSPHERE (2018-2024), SHIFTS (2009-2014) and X-LAKE (2007-2009), focusing on using lake sediments to reconstruct past climate variability in the Arctic, in Scandinavia and the Southern Ocean. Throughout the years, JB has been involved in projects in the Himalayas (GLACINDIA), Europe and Scandinavia. In the nationally co-ordinated NORPAST-2 research project, funded by the NRC, JB was a post-doc of one of the project modules studying Lateglacial and Holocene climate variability. JB was affiliated with a Strategic University Program (SUP) entitled «Norwegian paleoenvironment and climate as reconstructed from lake sediments (NORPEC)», funded by the NRC during his PhD scholarship.
