Pore-scale characterization and modelling of CO2 flow in tight sandstones using X-ray micro-CT; Knorringfjellet formation of the Longyearbyen CO2 lab, Svalbard [PDF]
Rocks of the Knorringfjellet Formation in Central Spitsbergen form a potential storage reservoir for CO2 below Longyearbyen. They are characterised by a moderate porosity and low permeability.

Electron precipitation characteristics during isolated, compound, and multi-night substorm events [PDF]
A set of 24 isolated, 46 compound, and 36 multi-night substorm events from the years 2008–2013 have been analysed in this study. Isolated substorm events are defined as single expansion–recovery phase pairs, compound substorms consist of multiple phase ...

Reconfiguration and closure of lobe flux by reconnection during northward IMF: possible evidence for signatures in cusp/cleft auroral emissions [PDF]
Observations are presented of the response of the dayside cusp/cleft aurora to changes in both the clock and elevation angles of the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) vector, as monitored by the WIND spacecraft.

Impact of planktivorous little auks ( Alle alle) on soil organic matter in Spitsbergen, High Arctic [PDF]
Seabirds constitute an important link between marine and terrestrial ecosystems, one of its manifestations being the transport of organic matter from the sea to breeding grounds.

Auroral all-sky camera calibration [PDF]
A two-step procedure to calibrate the spectral sensitivity to visible light of auroral all-sky cameras is outlined. Center pixel response is obtained by the use of a Lambertian surface and a standard 45 W tungsten lamp.
