E-mail corresponding author (Kim Senger): [email protected] The beginning of the Norwegian oil industry is often attributed to the first exploration drilling in the North Sea in 1966, the first discovery in 1967 and the discovery of the supergiant Ekofisk field in 1969. However, petroleum exploration already started onshore Svalbard in 1960 with three mapping groups from Caltex and exploration efforts by the Dutch company Bataaffse (Shell) and the Norwegian private company Norsk Polar Navigasjon AS (NPN). NPN was the first company to spud a well at Kvadehuken near Ny-Ålesund in 1961.

Jose Burman, a South African member, died in 1995 but was not included at the time. Ginette Harrison was the first woman to climb Kangchenjunga, in 1998. Whilst not yet a member, she had started the application process for membership. She died on Dhaulagiri last year. Yossi Brain, who sent us valuable reports from South America for the Area Notes, died in an avalanche on 25 September 1999 while mountain­ eering with friends in Northern Bolivia. Yossi touched the lives of a lot of people, through his lively, bright, and often irreverent sense of humourwhich permeated his guiding, his books, his articles and above all his spirit. He achieved a lot in the time he had, making two different and sucessful careers, and providing inspiration to many. Ulf Carlsson was Chairman of the Mountain Club of Kenya between 1993 and 1996. He wrote an article about the Swedish mountains for the 1997 Alpine Journal and was well known to some of our members. He died in the Pamir in 1999.

    Heavy Rain Events in Svalbard Summer and Autumn of 2016 to 2018 Ola Bakke Aashamar Thesis submitted for the degree of Master of Science in Meteorology Department of Geosciences Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences University of Oslo Department of Arctic Geophysics The University Centre in Svalbard August 15, 2019 2 “ Når merket vel dere byfolk her i deres stengte gater selv det minste pust av den frihet som tindrer over Ishavets veldige rom? Sto en eneste av dere noensinne ensom under Herrens øyne i et øde av snø og natt? Stirret dere noen gang opp i polarlandets flammende nordlys og forstod de tause toner som strømmet under stjernene? Hva vet dere om de makter som taler i stormer, som roper i snøløsningens skred og som jubler i fuglefjellenes vårskrik? Ingenting. “ - Fritt etter John Giæver, Ishavets glade borgere (1956) ​ 3 Acknowledgements First of all, I am forever grateful to my main supervisor Marius Jonassen, who with his great insight and supportive comments gave me all the motivation and help I needed along the way towards this master thesis. Big round of applause to all the amazing students and staff at UNIS who I was lucky to meet during my stays in Svalbard, and the people at MetOs in Oslo. The times shared with you inspire me both personally and professionally, and I will always keep the memories! Then I want to thank Grete Stavik-Døvle, Terje Berntsen, Frode Stordal and Karl-Johan Ullavik Bakken for ​ ​ admitting and guiding two lost NTNU students into studies at UiO. If not for you, who knows what would have happened.

  • ISFLAKET Polarmagasin Frå Ishavsmuseet
    ISFLAKET Polarmagasin frå Ishavsmuseet. Nr. 4– 2012 14. årgang kr. 50,- Leiar: opplevde mykje på turen, men til målet kom dei ikkje. Det er Gunnar Ellingsen – bygdebokredaktør i Ørsta – som har skrive artikkelen. Vi trur svært få polarinteresserte 50 år sidan Kings kjenner til Wellman-ekspedisjonen frå før. Gunnar Ellingsen har sendt oss endå ein svært Bay-ulykka interessant artikkel, nemleg om sunnmørske stadnamn på Svalbard. Hadde du høyrt om Den 5. november 1962 Åmdalen ved Ny-Ålesund, eller Brandallaguna miste 21 gruvearbeidarar livet i ein på sørsida av Kongsfjorden?

  • Springtime Nitrogen Oxides and Tropospheric Ozone in Svalbard: Local and Long-Range Transported Air Pollution

Thus, several previous studies investigated the background nitrogen oxides (NOx) and tropospheric ozone (O3) springtime chemistry in the region. However, there are also local anthropogenic emission sources on the archipelago such as coal power plants, ships and snowmobiles, which may significantly alter in situ atmospheric composition. Measurement results from three independent research projects were combined to identify the effect of emissions from various local sources on the background concentration of NOx and O3 in Svalbard. The hourly meteorological and chemical data from the ground-based stations in Adventdalen, Ny-Ålesund and Barentsburg were analysed along with daily radiosonde soundings and weekly data from O3 sondes.
