Iceberg of Franz Josef Land (Ian Gjertz)

N-1330 Oslo Lufthavn Norway

INTRODUCTION

The Russian high Arctic archipelago Franz Josef Land has long been closed to foreign scientists. The political changes which occurred in the former Soviet Union in the last part of the 1980s resulted in the opening of this area to foreigners. Director Gennady Matishov of Murmansk Marine Biological Institute deserves much of the credit for this.

In 1990 an international cooperation was established between the Murmansk Marine Biological Institute (MMBI); the Arctic Ecology Group of the Institute of Oceanology, Gdansk; and the Norwegian Polar Research Institute, Oslo. The purpose of this cooperation is to develope scientific cooperation in the Arctic thorugh joint expeditions, the establishment of a high Arctic scientific station, and the exchange of scientific information.

So far the results of this cooperation are two scientific cruises with the RV "Pomor", a vessel belonging to the MMBI. The cruises have been named SovNor-Poll and Sov-Nor-Po12. A third cruise is planned for August-September 1992. In addition the MMBI has undertaken to establish a scientific station at Tikhaia Bay on Hooker Island. This is the site of a former Soviet meteorological base from 1929-1958, and some of the buildings are now being restored by MMBI.

This report contains some of the results of the two cruises. Part of it deals with Franz Josef Land in general while part is especially focused on Tikhaia Bay. We hope that this is merely the first of many such reports that will contribute to the understanding of this part of the Arctic.

ON STRUCTURE OF WATER MASSES IN STRAITS OF THE FRANZ JOSEF LAND

Introdueꢀon

Regular hydrographic observations in the waters around Franz Josef Land have been conducted since the 1950s. Difficulties in connection with these observations arise from complex ice conditions found here almost the whole year round. The oceanographiꢂ struꢂture in the area surveyed is described using information ꢂolleꢂted during the observations. In partiꢂular, it is known, that the hydrologic regime in straits of the Franz Josef Land is considerably influenced by deep waters of Atlantic origin penetrating from the Arctic basin and the Barents Sea waters inflowing from the south. Besides, in straits and bays of the arꢂhipelago loꢂal ꢂold waters are forꢀed as a result of winter ꢂonveꢂtion and ocꢂupy a greater part of the water column. A surfaꢂe layer is transformed while getting free from the ice. Upper layers are warmed first, thereafter, deeper ones. A well pronounꢂed thermoc1ine is observed in the upper layer.

Hydroꢁaphiꢂ observations in the straits of the Franz Josef Land were ꢂarried out by the RV "Dalnie Zelentsy" in the period 19 - 25 August 1991. It is just during this period (late August) that the ice ꢂonditions are most favourable for doing research in the area, as indicated by long-term observations (Barents Sea sailing direꢂtions ꢂhart). Nevertheless, some stations planned beforehand were not ꢂovered. Hydrologiꢂ stations were done in the following straits - Alen Young, Markham, British Channel, De Bruyne, Mellenius as well as over the Tikhaia Bay (Hooker Island). The purpose of hydrographiꢂ observations was to study hydrologiꢂ struꢂture in straits of the Hooker Island area.

Material and methods

The Mellenius Strait is situated between the Hooker and Sꢂott-Kelty Islands and ꢂonneꢂts the Alen Young and De Bruyne straits. In the northern part of the strait the depth does not exꢂeed 40-60 m. Gradually it increases and reaꢂhes 230-260 m at the ꢂonfluenꢂe with the De Bruyne Strait.

Tikhaia Bay is situated in the northern part of the Mellenius Strait, cuts into the Hooker Island as far deep as 2.5 ꢆ, its area is about 5 ꢆ2• Hs depth varies between 40 and 150 m. A total of 6 hydrologic stations were covered over the Mellenius Strait and Tikhaia Bay.

Hydrologic observations were made in bathometric series at standard depths from the surface down to the bottom: O, 10, 20, 30, 50, 75, 100, 150, 200 m and as dose to the bottom as possible. Locations of stations were selected so, that the data collected could describe the hydrologic regime over the area surveyed. At each depth samples to measure salinity were collected. They were processed in salinometer GM-65 using standard techniques (salinity was determined from measured water conductivity and tables). Data on temperature and salinity were induded into the "Lotus" data base. In future, to have a more detailed picture of the hydrologic structure it is necessary to do extra stations based on results available now.

Results

A hydrographic survey has provided the following information. An upper layer (0-25 m) in the eastern part of the Mellenius Strait was occupied by waters with temperatures + 0.8° to + 0.25°C. Deeper, the temperature decreased with the minimum of _0.8° to -1.0°C recorded at 90-210 m. In the vicinity of the ScottKelty Island a vertical distribution of temperatures was somewhat different. For example, if over the middle part of the strait and near the Dandy Cape (Hooker Island) the isotherm O°C was at depth 25 m, off the Scott-Kelty Island it was at 12 m. No well pronounced layer of minimal temperature was observed there, the temperature decreased gradually to -0.7°C at the bottom.

Measurements made 10 ꢆ farther north-east showed that the whole water column from the surface to the bottom was occupied by coId water of negative temperatures. The temperature was -0.25°C at the surface and decreased gradually to -1.0°C at the bottom. Gnly negative water temperatures were observed in the outermost parts of the Tikhaia Bay. They were -0.2°C at the surface and -0.8°C at the bottom. The temperature decreased gradually. As for the Tikhaia Bay itself a vertical distribution of temperatures there was as follows. At the surface the temperature was -0.08°C. Deeper, in the 10-35 m layer the - O.s°C isotherm was observed. At 50 m depth the temperature was -0.8°C, and it, probably, was lower near the bottom.

A distribution of salinities in the Mellenius Strait and Tikhaia Bay was as follows. Salinity was 33.7% 0 in the south-western part of the strait. In the vicinity of the Dandy Cape and over the middle part of the strait salinity increased bottomwards to 34.7°/00. The Isohaline 34.0°/00 off the Dandy Cape was distributed at about 30 m and it was found as deep as 40 m in the middle

Discussion

Relꢆtꢄvely wꢆrm wꢆters of +0.4° to +0.6°C outflow ꢄn the surfꢆce lꢆyer (0-20 m) from the De Bruyne Strꢆꢄt ꢄnto the Mellenꢄus Strꢆꢄt. In the strꢆꢄt theꢄr temperꢆture decreꢆses notꢆbly: +0.15° to +0.25°C. Such ꢆ drap wꢆs due to theꢄr ꢄnterꢆctꢄon wꢄth locꢆl coId wꢆters.

These wꢆters penetrꢆte ꢆs fꢆr north-eꢆst ꢆs the mꢄddle pꢆrt of the strꢆꢄt. Surfꢆce Bꢆrents Seꢆ wꢆters hꢆve lower sꢆlꢄnꢄtꢄes becꢆuse of ꢄce meltꢄng.

In the Mellenꢄus Strꢆꢄt tꢃs lꢆyer ꢄs dꢄstrꢄbuted between 140 ꢆnd 230 m. Closer to the bottom the temperꢆture somewhꢆt ꢄnereꢆses. Thꢄs mꢆy probꢆbly be due to the ꢄnfluence of trꢆnsformed Atlꢆntꢄc wꢆters, whꢄeh flows ꢄnto the surveyed ꢆreꢆ from the Arctꢄc bꢆsꢄn ꢆlong the bottom troughs.

Along the northern coꢆst of the strꢆꢄt, ꢄn the vꢄcꢄnꢄty of the Scott-Kelty Islꢆnd, ꢆn upper 0-10 m lꢆyer ꢄs oeeupꢄed by the Bꢆrents Seꢆ wꢆters, deeper, the temperꢆture grꢆduꢆlly deereꢆses wꢄth depth to -0.7°C.

Cuvie kelp forests grew in shallow water, with dense red algae (Delesseria geographical and biological sanguinea, Plocamium cartilagineum, Phycodrys rubens and Odonthalia dentata) on stipes and on boundary between the exposed, rocks beneath. At the extremely exposed offshore rock Duslic (Site 19), clumps of blue mussels current-swept north coast and grew on kelp stipes, and breadcrumb sponge was common wrapped around kelp stipes at several Pentland Firth, and the more gentle sites. In deeper water, animal turfs covered rocks. Dominant animals varied from site to site, but waters of the Minch. The survey colonial and small solitary seasquirts were particularly abundant. At An Garb Eilean (Site 9), a small covered 24 sites spread over a island used by the military for target practice, north-east facing rock slopes were covered with dense large area of this spectacular part oaten-pipe sea fir Tubularia indivisa, together with abundant elegant anemones on vertical faces. of north-west Scotland.

    Expedition Notes – Aurora Expeditions

    March 13, 2018 Franz Josef Land Explorer (FJL001G) - Expedition Notes – Aurora Expeditions EXPEDITION NOTES Pre-Departure Information (FJL001G) Franz Josef Land Explorer (FJL001G) Tour Code: FJL001G Start: Longyearbyen, Svalbard Dates: 12 July to 26 July 2020 Finish: Longyearbyen, Svalbard Duration: Duration Ship: Greg Mortimer Welcome Aboard! These notes will give you a brief idea of what you may experience on this voyage. Our emphasis is on wildlife encounters, personal contact with the environment and visiting sites of historical interest. However, we stress that this is an expedition-style cruise. Our actual program will vary to take best advantage of local conditions, spontaneous opportunities and wildlife. No two voyages are the same; there is always an element of the unexpected. Franz Josef Land is an archipelago located in the Arctic Ocean, Barents Sea and Kara Sea. It is 1300 kilometres from Murmansk and in 900 kilometres from the North Pole. Franz Josef Land consists of 191 islands, which cover an area of 16,134 square kilometres, stretching 375 kilometres from east to west and 234 kilometres from north to south. It is a sanctuary of Arctic wildlife: walrus colonies, polar bears, arctic foxes, marine mammals, bird cliffs, and historical remains. The islands became part of the Russian Arctic National Park in 2012, with a policy to control tourist numbers in order to conserve the pristine environment. *Please note that this itinerary is indicative only as policies in Russia can change with very little notice. We will be able to provide you with firmer details of the final itinerary 12 months prior to departure.

Abstract Inversions of the origin of replication (ORI) of mitochondrial genomes produce asymmetrical mutational pressures that can cause artefactual clustering in phylogenetic analyses. It is therefore an absolute prerequisite for all molecular evolution studies that use mitochondrial data to account for ORI events in the evolutionary history of their dataset.

A REVISION OF THE CLASSIFICATION OF THE PLESIOSAURIA WITH A SYNOPSIS OF THE STRATIGRAPHICAL AND GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE GROUP BY PER OVE PERSSON LUND C. W. K. GLEER UP Read before the Royal Physiographic Society, February 13, 1963. LUND HÅKAN OHLSSONS BOKTRYCKERI l 9 6 3 l. Introduction The sub-order Plesiosauria is one of the best known of the Mesozoic Reptile groups, but, as emphasized by KuHN (1961, p. 75) and other authors, its classification is still not satisfactory, and needs a thorough revision. The present paper is an attempt at such a revision, and includes also a tabular synopsis of the stratigraphical and geo­ graphical distribution of the group. Some of the species are discussed in the text (pp. 17-22). The synopsis is completed with seven maps (figs. 2-8, pp. 10-16), a selective synonym list (pp. 41-42), and a list of rejected species (pp. 42-43). Some forms which have been erroneously referred to the Plesiosauria are also briefly mentioned ("Non-Plesiosaurians", p. 43). - The numerals in braekets after the generic and specific names in the text refer to the tabular synopsis, in which the different forms are numbered in successional order. The author has exaroined all material available from Sweden, Australia and Spitzbergen (PERSSON 1954, 1959, 1960, 1962, 1962a); the major part of the material from the British Isles, France, Belgium and Luxembourg; some of the German spec­ imens; certain specimens from New Zealand, now in the British Museum (see LYDEK­ KER 1889, pp.
