    554 Nordaust-Svalbard og Søraust- Svalbard naturreservater Kunnskapsstatus for flora og vegetasjon Marianne Evju Stefan Blumentrath Dagmar Hagen NINAs publikasjoner NINA Rapport Dette er en elektronisk serie fra 2005 som erstatter de tidligere seriene NINA Fagrapport, NINA Oppdragsmelding og NINA Project Report. Normalt er dette NINAs rapportering til oppdragsgiver etter gjennomført forsknings-, overvåkings- eller utredningsarbeid. I tillegg vil serien favne mye av instituttets øvrige rapportering, for eksempel fra seminarer og konferanser, resultater av eget forsknings- og utredningsarbeid og litteraturstudier. NINA Rapport kan også utgis på annet språk når det er hensiktsmessig. NINA Temahefte Som navnet angir behandler temaheftene spesielle emner. Heftene utarbeides etter behov og serien favner svært vidt; fra systematiske bestemmelsesnøkler til informasjon om viktige problemstillinger i samfunnet. NINA Temahefte gis vanligvis en populærvitenskapelig form med mer vekt på illustrasjoner enn NINA Rapport. NINA Fakta Faktaarkene har som mål å gjøre NINAs forskningsresultater raskt og enkelt tilgjengelig for et større publikum. De sendes til presse, ideelle organisasjoner, naturforvaltningen på ulike nivå, politikere og andre spesielt interesserte. Faktaarkene gir en kort framstilling av noen av våre viktigste forskningstema. Annen publisering I tillegg til rapporteringen i NINAs egne serier publiserer instituttets ansatte en stor del av sine vitenskapelige resultater i internasjonale journaler, populærfaglige bøker og tidsskrifter.

  • Svalbard July 4 – July 24, 2019
    SVALBARD A 21 DAYS POLAR BEAR SPECIAL JULY 4 - 24, 2019 ON BOARD M/S MALMÖ TOUR REPORT PARTICIPANTS Guests: Crew: Guides & Charterers: Bill Wirt Johannes Malmlund, captain Morten Jørgensen, guide & charterer Derek Holwill Lars Palm, chief officer Nozomi Takeyabu, guide & charterer Duncan Muir Johan Uddebrant, chief engineer Rinie van Meurs, expedition leader Graham Boulnois Christian Cocozza, chef Isa Jauss Jonathan Persson, AB Jenny Varley Karl Jonsson, AB JoAnne Simerson Lisa Rundberg, stewardess Richard Barrett Björn Arnemo, steward Rita Fryer Tolitha Lewis SUMMARY This 2019 marathon NozoMojo polar bears on ice odyssey, the second we have undertaken, was in many ways very different from our 2017 20-night voyage. The vessel was the same, and three of the guests too, but ev- erything else was different... The ice this year was relentless in its grip of the east, caus- ing us to spend just under half our time north of Spits- bergen and Nordaustlandet, only as far east as Sjuøyane (The Seven Islands), and more than half of our time in Hinlopenstretet and immediate surrounds. We had an outstanding amount of calm weather, which interchange- ably came with fog or with very clear conditions and ex- cellent visibility. As can be read below, our polar bear count was not too bad at all, with a few really excellent sighting and several intriguing repeat sightings of the same bears, sometimes in different locations. Our best bear sightings were on remnant fast ice or on land. The northern pack-ice mostly held old males. We noticed a lack of female bears with COYs and a strong overweight of male (usually disinterested) bears.

  • Pb-Pb Single-Zircon Ages of Granitoid Boulders from the Vendian Tillite of Wahlenbergfjorden, Nordaustlandet, Sv Albard
    Pb-Pb single-zircon ages of granitoid boulders from the Vendian tillite of Wahlenbergfjorden, Nordaustlandet, Sv albard ALEXANDER N. LARIONOV, ALEXANDER M. TEBENKOV and DAVID G. GEE Larionov A.N., Tebenkov A.M. & Gee D.G. 1998: Pb-Pb single-zircon ages of granitoid boulders from the Vendian tillite of Wahlenbergfjorden, Nordaustlandet, Svalbard. Polar Research, 17(1). 71-80. There are three areas in eastern Svalbard where Vendian tillites are exposed: eastern Ny Friesland. western Nordaustlandet (north and south of Murchisonfjorden) and further east in inner Wahlenbergfjorden, near Aldousbreen. Clasts within the massive unmetamorphosed clay-mica-carbonate matrix of the tillites include carbonates, sandstones, siltstones, metavolcanics. schists and different granitoids, the metamorphic and igneous rock types being more frequent in the upper levels of the formation. Large granite boulders, up to 1 m in diameter. are known from the easternmost outcrop at Aldousbreen. Three granitoid boulders from the Aldousbreen outcrop, differing in petrography and chemistiy. have been dated by the Pb-Pb single- zircon method. They yield ages of 2830 i 5 Ma, 1802 * 4 Ma and 1497 * 26 Ma. These clasts also differ in petrography, chemistry and age from all known granitic rocks on Nordaustlandet. which have recently yielded Grenvillian (950-960 Ma) and Caledonian (ca. 410 Ma) ages. The concentration of large granitic clasts in the easternmost known tillite ontcrops wggests derivation from the east and/or south. Possible areas include those beneath the ice of Austfonna and below the Carboniferous strata of southeastern Nordaustlandet. The apparent lack of a significant Grenvillian overprint suggests the possibility of a more distant source.

  • Nasjonsrelaterte Stedsnavn På Svalbard Hvilke Nasjoner Har Satt Flest Spor Etter Seg? NOR-3920
    Nasjonsrelaterte stedsnavn på Svalbard Hvilke nasjoner har satt flest spor etter seg? NOR-3920 Oddvar M. Ulvang Mastergradsoppgave i nordisk språkvitenskap Fakultet for humaniora, samfunnsvitenskap og lærerutdanning Institutt for språkvitenskap Universitetet i Tromsø Høsten 2012 Forord I mitt tidligere liv tilbragte jeg to år som radiotelegrafist (1964-66) og ett år som stasjonssjef (1975-76) ved Isfjord Radio1 på Kapp Linné. Dette er nok bakgrunnen for at jeg valgte å skrive en masteroppgave om stedsnavn på Svalbard. Seks delemner har utgjort halve mastergradsstudiet, og noen av disse førte meg tilbake til arktiske strøk. En semesteroppgave omhandlet Norske skipsnavn2, der noen av navna var av polarskuter. En annen omhandlet Språkmøte på Svalbard3, en sosiolingvistisk studie fra Longyearbyen. Den førte meg tilbake til øygruppen, om ikke fysisk så i hvert fall mentalt. Det samme har denne masteroppgaven gjort. Jeg har også vært student ved Universitetet i Tromsø tidligere. Jeg tok min cand. philol.-grad ved Institutt for historie høsten 2000 med hovedfagsoppgaven Telekommunikasjoner på Spitsbergen 1911-1935. Jeg vil takke veilederen min, professor Gulbrand Alhaug for den flotte oppfølgingen gjennom hele prosessen med denne masteroppgaven om stedsnavn på Svalbard.

This contribution focuses on the Stratigraphy stratigraphic and geochemical records spanning from the late Tonian to the onset of Cryogenian glaciation in the Carbonates Hecla Hoek Series, with the purpose of informing debates on the subdivision of the Neoproterozoic time scale, Carbon isotopes the cause of the descent into the first snowball ice age, and the tempo of Neoproterozoic oxygenation. This Strontium isotopes interval is represented by the Kinnvika Member of the uppermost Akademikerbreen Group and the Russøya Redox proxies Laurentia Member of the Elbobreen Formation, lowermost Polarisbreen Group. These units record the demise of the long- lived, stable Akademikerbreen carbonate platform in the East Svalbard basin. The upper Russøya Member preserves a deep negative carbon isotope anomaly that has been linked mechanistically to the onset of Cryogenian cooling.

  • Glacial History and Geomorphology of Trygghamna, Western Svalbard
    Faculty of Science and Technology Glacial history and Geomorphology of Trygghamna, western Svalbard — Nína Aradóttir Master thesis in Quaternary Geology (GEO-3900) May 2017 Abstract This study investigates Trygghamna, a small fjord on the western coast of Spitsbergen, Svalbard. In order to investigate its glacial history, high-resolution aerial images and swath bathymetry are used to produce a detailed geomorphological map of the area, with a focus on the Neoglacial extent of the three largest glaciers in the fjord, Protektor-, Harriet- and Kjerulfbreen. The landforms are classified into; subglacial, supraglacial, ice-marginal, glaciofluvial, proglacial landforms and extra-marginal surface cover. The ice-margins were reconstructed from ~1900, based on historical and geomorphological data together with aerial and satellite images. The Neoglacial maximum extent of the glaciers was reached around 1900, or the culmination of the Little Ice Age in Svalbard. Harriet- and Kjerulfbreen are considered to have exhibited surge behavior based on the presence of crevasse squeeze ridges (CSRs), which are considered unique for surging glaciers. The maximum extent is therefore, to some degree, related to a surge-event. Ice-marginal reconstructions and historical data suggest that the glaciers have been in overall retreat since then. It is more complex to determine if Protektorbreen surged as different factors in the glacier’s environment affect the formation and preservation potential of the landforms. The landform assemblages in the forefields do not show a good correspondence to previously published landsystem models for surge-type glaciers. Landsystem models should therefore be used with precaution when identifying undocumented surge-type glaciers. This investigation highlights the contrast in the record between terrestrial and marine environments of the glacier forefields in Trygghamna.

  • Late Quaternary Glacier and Sea‐Ice History of Northern Wijdefjorden

Boreas. https://doi.org/10.1111/ bor.12435. ISSN 0300-9483. The deglaciation history and Holocene environmental evolution of northern Wijdefjorden, Svalbard, are reconstructed using sediment cores and acoustic data (multibeam swath bathymetry and sub-bottom profiler data). Results reveal that the fjord mouth was deglaciated prior to 14.5Æ0.3 cal. ka BP and deglaciation occurred in a stepwise manner. Biomarker analyses show rapid variations in water temperature and sea ice cover during the deglaciation, and cold conditions during the YoungerDryas, followed by minimum sea ice coverthroughout the Early Holocene, until c. 7 cal. ka BP.Most of the glaciers in Wijdefjorden had retreated onto land by c. 7.6Æ0.2 cal. ka BP. Subsequently, the sea-ice extent increased and remained high throughout the last part of the Holocene. We interpret a high Late Holocene sediment accumulation rate in the northernmost core to reflect increased sediment flux to the site from the outlet of the adjacent lake Femmilsjøen, related to glacier growth in the Femmilsjøen catchment area. Furthermore, increased sea ice cover, lower water temperatures and the re-occurrence of ice-rafted debris indicate increased local glacier activityand overall coolerconditions in Wijdefjorden afterc. 0.5 cal. ka BP.Wesummarize our findings in a conceptual model for the depositional environment in northern Wijdefjorden from the Late Weichselian until present.

  • Bockfjorden 2017
    SVALBARD 2017. BOCKFJORDEN EXPEDITION 1 Bockfjorden 2017 Interim Final Report Arctic Research Group Pushing through pack ice in Wahlenbergfjorden, Nordaustlandet. Photograph IFs SVALBARD 2017. BOCKFJORDEN EXPEDITION 2 Author Note This Interim Final Report has been compiled to meet the requirements of certain grant funding bodies whose conditions ask for a final report by December 2017. The Final Report proper will follow once analytical results from a number of research establishments have been received and consultations with other ARG members on the various areas and topics to be covered have been completed. It is assumed that anyone interested in these will appreciate that without the opportunity to complete these analyses and to subsequently undertake the assessment of these the whole trip, albeit truncated and seriously affected in its original form, would be seriously compromised. The offer of substantial savings on analyses and reporting have added to the delay, which has to fit in with say to day work activities The Group asks everyone interested in this to be patient and bear with us during the intervening period. Keywords: Bockfjord Svalbard July 2017 Arctic Research Group Abstract The original proposal for this expedition was four researchers to visit Bockfjorden, North Svalbard, during the month of July 2017 and to undertake a series of independent but interlinked projects in a variety of disciplines that would enable a better understanding to be made of the area. These projects in included the objectives that are to be found in more detail in the Group Prospectus, available on line on request from [email protected] .

  • CH1-08: a Review of Major Faults in Svalbard
    A review of major faults in Svalbard by W. B. Harland Department of Geology Downing Street Cambridge CB2 3EQ, UK ABSTRACT Eleven major fault zones, either observed or sometimes postulated, are selected for discussion. Some show a long history, possibly dating back to Precambrian time, certainly to mid-Palaeozoic time, with evidence of late Devonian sinistral transcurrence. The best observed parts of these and most other faults are seen where later Phanerozoic rocks are displaced and in Tournaisian through Palaeocene time there is no evidence of strike-slip. However, with the general evidence of dextral strike-slip throughout Cenozoic time in the Spitsbergen Transform there is a short period of Palaeogene transpression (the West Spitsbergen Orogeny) and at that time probably many faults to the east of the orogenic front were initiated or reactivated. Graben faulting followed in the line of that orogeny, and seismic and thermal activity today completes our knowledge of a long mobile sequence. CONTENTS 1.
