The US research council National Science Foundation chartered Oden from the Swedish Maritime Administration and the Swedish Polar Research ...

Though the Oden’s primary mission was to establish the re-supply channel into McMurdo Station in late December 2006 and early January 2007, the ship’s transit from Punta Arenas, Chile to McMurdo Sound provided a ...

Swedish Polar Research Secretariat technicians retrieved data from a GPS/geodesy project which began during the 2004/05 season at Svea, where they also ...

Researchers deployed light detectors deep in the clear ice to capture the light that is sometimes emitted when neutrinos pass through ice. A Swedish citizen, under the employ of the American wing of the ...

... project where scientist explored life in the hydrothermal vents from the core of the Earth, which has been found at the Gakkel Ridge, a mountain ridge below the Arctic Ocean. The expedition was an International Polar Year (IPY) ...

LOMROG studied parts of the Arctic glaciation history, variations in the covering of the permanent pack ice sheet and the development of the Arctic Ocean ...

Use of soapstone from the first settlement of Greenland until the present day. Principal investigator Lars Larsson Department of Archaeology and Ancient History, Lund University

... Land is ice-free today, but is partly covered by glacial deposits containing rocks of a western provenance, which indicate that the Greenland Ice Sheet has earlier advanced across the peninsula. The fieldwork of 2006, following up on work ...

... plain fringes the Arctic Ocean for ~100 km in Johannes V. Jensen Land. Unique to Greenland, the plain probably originated as an ancient marine abrasion terrace. It is covered by a continuous blanket of Quaternary sediment, and ...

This work also has important implications for global economic resources since significant proven and potential reservoir rocks also occur in Arctic shelf ...

... is to explain the development of industry in the polar areas from the 17th century until today and to analyse the natural and geopolitical consequences of that development. Principal investigator Dag Avango KTH Royal Institute of Technology

Most expeditions collected fossils and other geological materials. A lot of the fossils ended up in collections at the Swedish Museum of Natural History in Stockholm. Professor ...

The researchers studied sources and sinks, transport and transformation processes and their interactions with clouds and climate. This was done through long-term measurements at three ...

The drilling at Kohnen Station reached the bedrock in the season 2005/06 after four seasons of drilling. The final depth was recorded as ...

The feasibility of using transparent ice at large depth in Antarctica for neutrino telescopes was shown by the AMANDA collaboration in the 1990’s. The scientific ...

The expedition was a cooperative venture between Lund University and Stockholm University in Sweden and the CADIC-CONICET institute in Ushuaia, ...

On 14 November 2004 continous GPS measurements at the permanent GPS reference station Svea in Heimefrontfjella was started. About one year later, on 29 November 2005, the ...

The research questions studied included: How does the presence of herbivores and insects relate to the variation and geographical distribution of their fodder plants? And how do the life situations of herbivores ...

The questions studied included: To what extent does the natural biogeochemical cycle in the Arctic Ocean affect the global and local climate? Quantifiable ...

In addition to the research, technical and logistical work was performed at Wasa and Svea. In addition to conventional maintenance, tracked vehicles and snowmobiles was serviced and repaired. At ...
