Internal Structure of Ariebreen, Spitsbergen, from radio-echo sounding data [PDF]
Ariebreen (77º 01' N, 15º 29' E) is a small valley glacier (ca. 0.36 km2 in August 2007) located at Hornsund, Spitsbergen, Svalbard, ca. 2.5 km to the west of Hornsund Polish Polar Station.

Using stable isotopes (15N, 13C) we identified four trophic groups of oribatid mites (phytophagous, secondary decomposers, predators/scavengers and lichen feeders) on Svalbard; primary decomposers were missing, pointing to low litter quality. Most oribatid mite taxa were boreal/tundra habitat specialists with strong sclerotization which likely improves

Abstract Increased freshwater discharge from Arctic glaciers modifies the carbonate chemistry of coastal fjords. We investigated the carbon isotopic composition (Δ14C and δ13C) of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) in Kongsfjorden, Svalbard, to evaluate how freshwater inputs and water‐mass exchange shape fjord carbon dynamics.
