Recent Levels of Technetium-99 in Seawater at the West Coast of Svalbard

The Scientific World Journal, 2002
Seawater from the western coast of Svalbard was sampled in the spring and summer of 2000 to determine levels of technetium-99 (99Tc), a conservative-behaving, manmade radionuclide originating from European nuclear reprocessing plants.

Comparison of the burial rate estimation methods of organic and inorganic carbon and quantification of carbon burial in two high Arctic fjords

Oceanologia, 2018
Summary: Quantifying the burial of organic carbon (OC) and inorganic carbon (IC) species in marine sediments contribute to a better understanding of carbon cycle.

Comparison of bacterial production in the water column between two Arctic fjords, Hornsund and Kongsfjorden (West Spitsbergen)

Oceanologia, 2017
Bacterial production and the accompanying environmental factors were measured in the water columns of two Arctic fjords during the cruise in July and August 2013.

Warming in the Arctic Captured by productivity variability at an Arctic Fjord over the past two centuries. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Arctic fjords feature among some of the most climate-sensitive regions on the planet. The site of this study-Kongsfjorden-is one such fjord in which sedimentation and sediment geochemistry reflect climate-mediated changes in glacial melt and marine ...

Atlantic advection driven changes in glacial meltwater: Effects on phytoplankton chlorophyll-a and taxonomic composition in Kongsfjorden, Spitsbergen.

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2016
Phytoplankton biomass and composition was investigated in a high Arctic fjord (Kongsfjorden, 79˚N, 11˚40’E) using year round weekly pigment samples collected from October 2013 to December 2014.

Summer sea ice melt and wastewater are important local sources of microlitter to Svalbard waters

Environment International, 2020
Human activities leave traces of marine litter around the globe. The Arctic is, despite its remoteness, emerging as an area of no exception to this environmental issue.

Organic carbon flux and particulate organic matter composition in Arctic valley glaciers: examples from the Bayelva River and adjacent Kongsfjorden [PDF]

Biogeosciences, 2016
In the face of ongoing global warming and glacier retreat, the composition and flux of organic matter in glacier–fjord systems are key variables for updating the carbon cycle and budget, whereas the role of Arctic valley glaciers seems unimportant when ...
