This commenced in 1965, when A. HJELLE worked for two weeks on the north-west islands, and continued in 1966, when he and Y. ORTA worked jointly in the Smeerenburgfjorden-Sørgattet-Danskøya­ Amsterdamøya area. ORTA planned to continue his work further towards the east, on the east side of Svitjodbreen in 1968; however, unfavourable ice conditions that year prevented this, and instead he continued detailed mapping towards the south, in the Magdalenefjorden area. Each of the geologists worked with two assistants, and as helicopter trans­ port was not available, small boats were the main means of transportation. Preliminary maps (scale l: 50 000) served as a topographic base for the mapping together with oblique air photographs. These were supplemented in 1968 by vertical air photographs. The approximate location of the mapped area is north of 79 o 30' N, and west of Il o 30' E, within the sheets A4 and A5 of the Norsk Polarinstitutt l : 100 000 topographical map series. The total area mapped amounts to approximately 375 km2• The geology of Danskøya and AlTIsterdanløya north-west Spitsbergen By AUDUN HJELLE Abstract The area considered lies within the highly metamorphic part of the Caledonides of north-west Spitsbergen. The rocks comprise various para-gneisses, migmatites, syntec­ tonic granitic rocks, and post-tectonic granitic dyke intrusions. A sillimanite-cordierite­ almandine paragenesis in biotite gneiss and diopside-wollastonite in skarn rocks suggest the highest grade of metamorphism to be of upper amphibolite

  • Census of Breeding Seabirds on the Northwest Coast of Svalbard 1973 and 1978
    Census of breeding seabirds on the northwest coast of Svalbard 1973 and 1978 CHRISTIAN KEMPF AND BENO~TSI~ER Kempf, C. & Sittler, B. 1988: Census of breeding seabirds on the northwest coast of Svalbard 1973 and 1978. Polar Research 6, 195-203. The western coast of Svalbard is one of the world's most important seabird regions (Belopol'skij 1961; L0venskiold 1964; Norderhaug et al. 1977), due to the favourable water temperatures, light regime and amounts of mineral salts (Norderhaug et al. 1977). Seabirds have been censused several times in this area (Kristoffersen 1962; Larsen 1965; Dhondt et al. 1969; Voisin 1970; Norderhaug 1974; Sendstad 1978; Alendal et al. 1982). Except for Larsen (1965), there is no comprehensive and quantitative survey of any part of northwestern Svalbard. Further east, Jepsen & Mobrek (1983) surveyed the area between GrPhuken and Nordaustlandet. Recent concern about the potentially detrimental effects of planned oil exploration and increased human activities in the high Arctic has emphasized the need for more information on the ecology in these regions. This paper provides more comprehensive data on seabird populations in northwestern Svalbard, between southern Prins Karls Forland and Verlegenhuken. The results supplement the studies carried out in 1978 and 1979 by Jepsen & Mobzk (1983) between Verlegenhuken and Kong Karls Land. Chrbtian Kempf and Benoit Sittler, Groupe de Recherches en Ecologie Arctique, 68660 Rombach le Franc, France; December 1986 (reuised September 1988). General area description In 1978, a party of 9 people with base camp at Sorgattet (between Magdalenefjorden and The northwest coast of Svalbard is deeply Smeerenburgfjorden) conducted surveys in indented, with rocky peninsulas rising to 300- Kongsfjorden and Albert I Land (9-13 July), 800 m a.s.1.

Lyons a a Department of Earth Sciences, University of California, Riverside, CA, USA b Biogeochemistry Department, Max Planck Institute for Marine Microbiology, Bremen, Germany c School of Earth and Environment, Leeds University, Leeds, UK Received 16 August 2013; accepted in revised form 9 June 2014; available online 20 June 2014 Abstract Glacial environments may provide an important but poorly constrained source of potentially bioavailable iron and man- ganese phases to the coastal ocean in high-latitude regions. Little is known about the fate and biogeochemical cycling of gla- cially derived iron and manganese in the coastal marine realm. Sediment and porewater samples were collected along transects from the fjord mouths to the tidewater glaciers at the fjord heads in Smeerenburgfjorden, Kongsfjorden, and Van Keulen- fjorden along Western Svalbard. Solid-phase iron and manganese speciation, determined by sequential chemical extraction, could be linked to the compositions of the local bedrock and hydrological/weathering conditions below the local glaciers. The concentration and sulfur isotope composition of chromium reducible sulfur (CRS) in Kongs- and Van Keulenfjorden sedi- ments largely reflect the delivery rate and isotope composition of detrital pyrite originating from adjacent glaciers.

MAGNUSSON ( With 7 figures in the text) uring his expedition to North East Greenland in 1929 Prof. D B. Lynge, Oslo, collected a great number of Acarospora­ species which were sent to me for revision or determination. To this collection was added a considerable n.umber of specimens collected by Th. M. Fries (Th. Fr.) in West Greenland in 1871 and some from Spitsbergen in 1868. Other collections were made in Greenland by P. F. Scholander 1930, and in Spitsbergen by Lynge 1926 and P. F. Scholander 1931. The supposition that the Acarospora-species of Greenland should resemble those of Northern Scandinavia has appeared to be wrong as there were no less than 8 species that could not be identified with those already known. And there seems to be several new species among the material which was too scanty to allow of a certain determination. The specimens collected hy Th. M. Fries belong to Natur­ historiska Riksmuseet, Stockholm, and those collected by Lynge and Scholander to Botanisk Museum, Oslo. The specimens are arranged here in the order adopted by me in my Monograph of Acarospora 1929.

  • 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. Han var også min foreleser og veileder da jeg tok mellomfagstillegget i nordisk språk med oppgaven Frå Amarius til Pardis. Manns- og kvinnenavn i Alstahaug og Stamnes 1850-1900.4 Jeg takker også alle andre som på en eller annen måte har hjulpet meg i denne prosessen. Dette gjelder bl.a. Norsk Polarinstitutt, som velvillig lot meg bruke deres database med stedsnavn på Svalbard, men ikke minst vil jeg takke min kjære Anne-Marie for hennes tålmodighet gjennom hele prosessen.
