Arctic Sea Ice and HAlogen Deposition: investigation for a new paleoclimatic tool, RiS ID 6185

The project proposes to investigate the halogens into aerosol, seasonal snow and firn layers in order to better understand how the sea-ice area around Svalbard influences the bromine enrichment and iodine depositions. Moreover, the effect of post-depositi onal processes that can affect the haloge...

Can an increase in body temperature be used as a measure of stress in Kittiwakes (Rissa Tridactyla)?, RiS ID: 2919

The aim of the study is to investigate if there is a correlation between the short-term handling-induced stress response, that is registered by standard CORT-measurements, and the simultaneously increase in body temperature in black-legged kittiwakes. Thi s has not yet been studied in any captive...

Diversity of root-associated fungi connected to Salix polaris L. in newly colonized areas. RIS 6193

The project will investigate the biodiversity of fungi associated with the roots and rhizosphere of Salix polaris, an ecto-mycorrhizal dwarf shrub that is one of the first vascular plants that colonizes recently deglaciated areas in the High Arctic. We wi ll also attempt to identify possible biot...

Svalbard Snow and Avalanche Science Workshop

The first basic avalanche research in Svalbard was initiated by the Norklima CYROSLOPE Svalbard research project (2006-2009), with the aim of studying the influence of particularly avalanches on traffic and infrastructure around Longyearbyen in a changing climate. This first basic avalanche rese...

Remote biosensor technology measuring valve gap and shell growth of bivalves for detecting accidental discharges in the Norwegian Arctic

The main goal of the project will be to transfer and optimize for the Arctic a remote biosensor technology developed in France to permanently record an index of water quality (based on a continuous bivalve-activity recording) and, eventually, rapidly dete ct industrial accidental discharges in th...

Workshop to develop joint future permafrost hydrology research in Svalbard

It is increasingly recognized that permafrost hydrology is an important component in the Arctic system and needs to be better understood in light of climate chanage. At the same time we now know based on IPY research that the warmest continuous permafrost in the high arctic exist in Svalbard. Co...
