Biometry, and fatty acid and fatty alcohol composition of the Arctic ctenopho...
Lipids of the Arctic ctenophore Mertensia ovum, collected from Kongsfjorden (Svalbard) in 2001, were analysed to investigate seasonal variability and fate of dietary lipids.... -
Diatom abundance and fatty acid composition of ice algae and of Calanus glaci...
The copepod Calanus glacialis plays a key role in the lipid-based energy flux in Arctic shelf seas. By utilizing both ice algae and phytoplankton, this species is able to extend... -
Sea ice cover, and bottom water and sediment characteristics at stations in t...
Seasonal dynamics in the activity of Arctic shelf benthos have been the subject of few local studies, and the pronounced among-site variability characterizing their results... -
Mass balance and acceleration of the Greenland ice sheet
Within the last decade, the Greenland ice sheet (GrIS) and its surroundings have experienced record high surface temperatures (Mote, 2007, doi:10.1029/2007GL031976; Box et al.,... -
Gut filling, gut content and fatty acid composition of demersal fish species ...
The gut contents and fatty acid composition of 49 fish belonging to five Antarctic demersal families (Nototheniidae, Macrouridae, Channichtyidae, Bathydraconidae and... -
Stable isotopic ratios, shell lengths and organochlorine compounds in four bi...
Organochlorine compounds (OC) were determined in Arctic bivalves (Mya truncata, Serripes groenlan-dicus, Hiatella arctica and Chlamys islandica) from Svalbard with regard to... -
Depth profiles of iodide and iodate during POLARSTERN cruise ANT-XXIV/3 to th...
The biogeochemistry of iodine in the waters of the Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean was investigated during the Polarstern cruise ANTXXIV-3 ZERO&DRAKE. The speciation... -

(Supplement Table 1) Individual measurements of prosome length, dry weight an...
We present an accurate, fast, simple and non-destructive photographic method to estimate wax ester and lipid content in single individuals of the calanoid copepod genus Calanus... -
Ice velocities of Nordenskiöldbreen glacier, Svalbard
Precise measurements of ice-flow velocities are necessary for a proper understanding of the dynamics of glaciers and their response to climate change. We use stand-alone... -
Geodetic and satellite derived ice surface velocities of Vestfonna ice cap
During 2007 we launched a geodetic campaign on the Svalbard ice cap Vestfonna in order to estimate the velocity field of the ice cap. This was done within the frame of the IPY... -
Baseline surface radiation during the International Polar Year 2007-2009
Downwelling and upwelling shortwave and longwave radiation components from six active polar sites, taking part of the Baseline Surface Radiation Network (BSRN), were selected... -
(Table 1) Cadmium and nutrient concentration of surface waters sampled during...
The High Nutrient Low Chlorophyll (HNLC) Southern Ocean plays a key role in regulating the biological pump and the global carbon cycle. Here we examine the efficacy of stable... -
(Table 1) Physical oceanography during Lance cruise LA99/2 in the marginal ic...
Zooplankton was studied on eight stations in the marginal ice zone (MIZ) of the Barents Sea, in May 1999, along two transects across the ice edge. On each station, physical... -
Initial biomass and biomass change of tundra and forest plants in three herbi...
Recent Pan-Arctic shrub expansion has been interpreted as a response to a warmer climate. However, herbivores can also influence the abundance of shrubs in arctic ecosystems. We... -
Isotopic composition of diet and tissues, and isotope discrimination factors ...
Breeding in the high Arctic is time constrained and animals should therefore start with their annual reproduction as early as possible. To allow for such early reproduction in... -
Geochemistry of frost flowers and snow obtained near Ahlmann summit, Vestfonn...
The chemistry of snow and ice cores from Svalbard is influenced by variations in local sea ice margin and distance to open water. Snow pits sampled at two summits of Vestfonna... -
Mean chemical characteristics and volcano signatures of ice cores from Belukh...
Ice cores from outside the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets are difficult to date because of seasonal melting and multiple sources (terrestrial, marine, biogenic and... -
Accumulation, velocities, fluxes and mass balance of glacial tributaries to t...
By incorporating recently available remote sensing data, we investigated the mass balance for all individual tributary glacial basins of the Lambert Glacier-Amery Ice Shelf... -
(Table 3) Basal melting rates under the Amery Ice Shelf, East Antarctica
The basal melting and freezing rates under the Amery Ice Shelf, East Antarctica, are evaluated, and their spatial distributions mapped. Ice velocity, surface elevation and...
