AAC Publications Filchner Mountains: Various Ascents Antarctica, Queen Maud Land Following my expedition to the Orvin Fjella in November 2009 (AAJ 2010), and another to the east of the Drygalski Mountains in November 2013, I visited the Filchner Mountains in November 2015. Michael Guggolz (Germany), Kjetil Kristensen and Kjell Olav Gjerde (Norway), and I skied from Jøkulkyrkia (3,148m, 71°52'34"S, 6°40'12"E), the highest point in Queen Maud Land, along Trollslottet toward Rakekniven in the east. On the 19th we climbed a nameless 2,775m peak that we called "Thor’s Altar" (71°55'14”S, 6°47'02"E), the next day Jøkulkyrkia, on the 22nd Peak 2,670m (71°56'28"S, 6°54'57"E) and Peak 2,240m (a rock outcrop at 71°58'18"S, 6°58'15"E), and on the 25th the high point of a rocky ridge of 2,231m (71°59'09"S, 7°13'32"E; there were three rocky summits that we named "Tre Trollungane"). Apart from Jøkulkyrkia, all were first ascents, but the altitudes are not precise, being either barometric or deduced from Google Earth.

Ice Shelf Advance and Retreat Rates Along the Coast of Queen Maud Land, Antarctica K
JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH, VOL. 106, NO. C4, PAGES 7097–7106, APRIL 15, 2001 Ice shelf advance and retreat rates along the coast of Queen Maud Land, Antarctica K. T. Kim,1 K. C. Jezek,2 and H. G. Sohn3 Byrd Polar Research Center, The Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio Abstract. We mapped ice shelf margins along the Queen Maud Land coast, Antarctica, in a study of ice shelf margin variability over time. Our objective was to determine the behavior of ice shelves at similar latitudes but different longitudes relative to ice shelves that are dramatically retreating along the Antarctic Peninsula, possibly in response to changing global climate. We measured coastline positions from 1963 satellite reconnaissance photography and 1997 RADARSAT synthetic aperture radar image data for comparison with coastlines inferred by other researchers who used Landsat data from the mid-1970s. We show that these ice shelves lost ϳ6.8% of their total area between 1963 and 1997. Most of the areal reduction occurred between 1963 and the mid-1970s. Since then, ice margin positions have stabilized or even readvanced. We conclude that these ice shelves are in a near-equilibrium state with the coastal environment. 1.

The British Williams exploration party led by Captain William Smith discovered the northwest coast of the Antarctic Peninsula. The Russian Vostok and Mirnyy expedition led by Thaddeus Thadevich Bellingshausen sighted parts of the continental coast (Dronning Maud Land) without recognizing what they had seen. They discovered Peter I Island in January of 1821. • 1841 James Clark Ross sailed with the Erebus and the Terror through the ice in the Ross Sea, and mapped 900 kilometres of the coast. He discovered Ross Island and Mount Erebus. • 1892-93 Financed by Chr. Christensen from Sandefjord, C. A. Larsen sailed the Jason in search of new whaling grounds. The first fossils in Antarctica were discovered on Seymour Island, and the eastern part of the Antarctic Peninsula was explored to 68° 10’ S. Large stocks of whale were reported in the Antarctic and near South Georgia, and this discovery paved the way for the large-scale whaling industry and activity in the south.

The Norwegian-British-Swedish Antarctic Expedition
Institutt for arkeologi, historie, religionsvitenskap og teologi (AHR) The Norwegian -British-Swedish Antarctic Expedition Science and politics — Christel Misund Domaas Master thesis in History HIS-3900 – May 2019 Acknowledgements A long journey has (finally) come to an end… When I started this project in 2010, there was no doubt that the topic of my thesis would be related to the Antarctic. Because there is something with that large, icy continent that sticks with you in a certain way. Not just the smell in your nose after visiting a penguin colony… but a feeling of insignificance, and yet momentousness, when looking out from your tent onto Windless Bight and Mount Erebus. I have met obstacles along the way, and I’ve strayed off course. I’ve experienced white-outs, both in Antarctica and in my mind. This project was put on hold for several years but was always lurking in the back of my mind. Luckily, I’ve had help to steer me back on track. Thank you to my supervisors. Einar-Arne Drivenes, for your lectures on polar history that further inspired this thesis, and Stian Bones for your guidance and help in finding the strength to finish. To the institute (AHR) at UiT Norges arkitske universitet, thank you for the scholarship and for not giving up on me. To Hana at UB for help with the maps, and Ann Kristin and Ivar at NPI for enduring all my enquiries. Tromsø Akademiske Kvinnekor – TAKk, without you I would not be finished! The joy you bring exceeds the hard work, and you are all truly amazing! A prettier bouquet of people is hard to find.

Norwegian Arctic Expansionism, Victoria Island (Russia) and the Bratvaag Expedition IAN GJERTZ1 and BERIT MØRKVED2
ARCTIC VOL. 51, NO. 4 (DECEMBER 1998) P. 330– 335 Norwegian Arctic Expansionism, Victoria Island (Russia) and the Bratvaag Expedition IAN GJERTZ1 and BERIT MØRKVED2 (Received 6 October 1997; accepted in revised form 22 March 1998) ABSTRACT. Victoria Island (Ostrov Viktoriya in Russian) is the westernmost island of the Russian Arctic. The legal status of this island and neighbouring Franz Josef Land was unclear in 1929 and 1930. At that time Norwegian interests attempted, through a secret campaign, to annex Victoria Island and gain a foothold on parts of Franz Josef Land. We describe the events leading up to the Norwegian annexation, which was later abandoned for political reasons. Key words: Franz Josef Land, Victoria Island, Norwegian claim, acquisition of sovereignty RÉSUMÉ. L’île Victoria (en russe Ostrov Viktoriya) est l’île la plus occidentale de l’Arctique russe. En 1929 et 1930, le statut légal de cette île et de l’archipel François-Joseph voisin n’était pas bien défini. À cette époque, les intérêts norvégiens tentaient, par le biais d’une campagne secrète, d’annexer l’île Victoria et d’établir une emprise sur des zones de l’archipel François- Joseph. On décrit les événements menant à l’annexion norvégienne, annexion qui fut délaissée par la suite pour des raisons politiques. Mots clés: archipel François-Joseph, île Victoria, revendication norvégienne, acquisition de la souveraineté Traduit pour la revue Arctic par Nésida Loyer. INTRODUCTION One of the bases for claiming these polar areas was that Norwegians either had discovered them or had vital eco- Norway has a long tradition in Arctic exploration, fishing, nomic interests in them as the most important commercial sealing, and hunting.

Importantly, the database includes formatted meta-data like measurement 17 technique, elevation, which allows any user to filter out the data. Here, we discard data with limited 18 spatial and temporal representativeness, too small measurement accuracy, or lack of quality control. 19 Applied to the database, this filtering process gives four times more reliable data than when applied 20 to previously available databases. New data with high spatial resolution are now available over long 21 traverses, and at low elevation in some areas. However, the quality control led to a considerable 22 reduction in the spatial density of data in several regions, particularly over West Antarctica. Over 23 interior plateaus, where the SMB is low, the spatial density of measurements remains high. This 24 quality controlled dataset was compared to results from ERA-Interim reanalysis to assess whether 25 field data allow us to reconstruct an accurate description of the main SMB distribution features in 26 Antarctica.

Measured radionuclide concentrations vary from extremely low values up to saturation. For a scenario with extremely low erosion and minimal tectonic uplift 10Be and 26Al surface exposure ages are generally in good agreement. Long exposure ages up to >8 Ma were conﬁrmed by measurement of stable 21Ne using noble gas mass spectrometry. Our data suggest that the regional highest mountain peaks had risen above the ice surface at least 1e4 Ma ago. Notwithstanding a 200e400 m higher ice sheet elevation persisted in the Wohlthat Massiv/Queen Maud Land until about 0.5 Ma ago.
