Abstract The Permian–Triassic environmental crisis triggered fundamental changes in marine ecosystems, culminating in the most severe biodiversity crisis of the Phanerozoic. Yet, the environmental and geochemical conditions governing the crisis and ecosystem recovery remain debated.

Mineral composition and thermobarometry of metamorphic rocks of Western Ny Friesland, Svalbard
The results of the study of mineral composition and microstructure of representative metapelitic and calcic pelitic schist and amphibole-biotite gneiss, occurring in the northern part of the Western Ny Friesland anticlinorium, are reported.

Community‐driven variations in snow algae color modulate snow albedo reduction
Summary Snow algae blooms visibly alter snow color and surface energy balance, yet the biological basis of this variability remains unclear. We investigated how pigment composition and community structure shape the optical properties of snow algae blooms of distinct colors – red, orange, and green – co‐occurring within the same snowfield in Glacier ...

Warming and Ocean Acidification Effects in the Seaweed Community of West Spitsbergen [PDF]
Global change-related warming and ocean acidification (OA) are major threats to the Svalbard coastal ecosystem. Rock bottom areas are mainly dominated by dense forests of a multi-species community of seaweeds.

A compact lightweight multipurpose ground-penetrating radar for glaciological applications
We describe a compact lightweight impulse radar for radio-echo sounding of subsurface structures designed specifically for glaciological applications. The radar operates at frequencies between 10 and 75 MHz.

Northern Hemisphere Glaciation during the Globally Warm Early Late Pliocene [PDF]
The early Late Pliocene (3.6 to ~3.0 million years ago) is the last extended interval in Earth's history when atmospheric CO2 concentrations were comparable to today's and global climate was warmer.

Freeze‐Thaw Processes Induce Convective Fingering in Saline Soils
Abstract Saline soils in cold regions are often affected by freeze‐thaw processes, yet how these processes affect two‐dimensional salt transport dynamics remains poorly understood. Here, we show the importance of two‐dimensional flow induced by seasonal freeze‐thaw processes based on a validated numerical model.

Simulation of the dynamics of the Hansbreen tidal glacier (Svalbard) based on the stochastic model
The dynamics of the Hansbreen tidal glacier (Svalbard) is manifested at different time scales. In addition to the long-term trend, there are noticeable inter-annual fluctuations. And the last ones are precisely the subject of this work.

Influence of transport and ocean ice extent on biogenic aerosol sulfur in the Arctic atmosphere [PDF]
The recent decline in sea ice cover in the Arctic Ocean could affect the regional radiative forcing via changes in sea ice-atmosphere exchange of dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and biogenic aerosols formed from its atmospheric oxidation, such as methanesulfonic ...
