The expedition was carried out in close co-operation with the Finnish Antarctic research Programme FINNARP, and the participants stayed at the Finnish resarch station ...

The ocean freshwater balance of the Antarctic shelves is currently changing, at least partly in response to the surging and melting of the ...

The flow pathways of water through the Arctic landscape are strongly affected by the presence of permafrost, which impedes the flow ...

Lemmings constitute the Arctic fox’s primary food source throughout much of its range. Of particular interest is the relative importance of survival and recruitment to fluctuations in the Arctic fox population, and how this varies with ...

The research projects involved in Arctic Sweden had largely to do with climate change, both natural changes and those attributable to man. The projects were interdisciplinary in nature, and ...

... conducted within the ASCOS framework required advanced logistics and technology. The Swedish Polar Research Secretariat was responsible for logistics and for access to the icebreaker Oden, an important research platform key to the success ...

The Kinnvika project was a logistic platform for scientists to manage research, with a base at the old Kinnvika station in Svalbard, but also a way to coordinate ...

... epicontinental seas in the world. The objective was to improve our understanding of the enormous flows of carbon, material, and water that pass through this system on their way from the Siberian tundra to the interior of the Arctic Ocean, ...

... the maximum extent of the inland ice sheets in the Kara Sea region, and acquire a deeper understanding of the variation and extent of earlier inland ice sheets. This information about the inland ice sheets will be useful in efforts to ...

Several of the world’s biggest rivers empty into the Arctic Ocean, and the watershed in Siberia is dominated by permafrost, i.e., the ground is frozen year round, and only the topsoil ever thaws. The ...

The retrophotography science history project was a comparative “then and now” study that generated new reference material for further rephotography and comparison. In this context, ...

LOMROG III was a follow-up to the previous Danish-Swedish LOMROG expeditions that took place in 2007 and 2009. The Swedish icebreaker Oden once again served as the research platform. The task of the ...

... million years ago. The NOA-Svalbard expedition enabled researchers to obtain a clearer picture of how the region’s natural resources have arisen and developed, contributing to our understanding of how the areas of tectonic subsidence ...

The expedition was a collaboration between the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) and the Swedish Polar Research Secretariat. OATRC ...

The test areas were established during the 1991/92 season and first inspected ten years later, during the 2001/02 season. The primary purpose of the project is to establish an environmental surveillance programme ...

Previous studies have shown that opportunistic feeders as gulls easily become carriers of antibiotic resistant bacteria. Preliminary results from Kelp ...

The expedition was carried out by the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) in collaboration with the Swedish Polar Research Secretariat. OATRC 2013 was a project associated with Sustainable Arctic Marine and ...

... comprises two deep basins: the Amerasian Basin and the Eurasian Basin. The Amerasian Basin is the older of the two at roughly 135 million years old, and lies at a depth of over 3,000 meters. Understanding how the Amerasian Basin was ...

The field research consisted of observations of the environmental impact of climate change and interviews with researchers and actors from the business community ...
