RESEARCH IN SVALBARD 2004
- information about ongoing scientific projects -
This year’s “Research in Svalbard” is the 23 in a row. The intention of the bulletin is to provideinformation about ongoing scientific work in the Svalbard region, and to assist the scientistsinvolved in exchanging information about their projects, in order to obtain additional informationor to co-ordinate field activities. In 1998, the Research Council of Norway established SvalbardScience Forum (SSF) in Longyearbyen. The aim is to give information about Svalbard as ascience platform and to assist scientists and organisations in Svalbard with practical matters. SSFis the publisher of this year’s bulletin. Please be aware that the registration of field projects is on avoluntary basis. This means that some projects may not be registered. We also would like to drawthe reader’s attention to the fact that the registration deadline is prior to the start of the majority ofthe field projects, and therefore planned projects have been registered. In spite of theselimitations, it is our impression that the contents are fairly accurate in terms of distributionbetween nations, disciplines, and geographic areas. Registration forms for this publication havebeen registered into our database as they have been received. Svalbard Science Forum holds noresponsibility for the information given. The database is also available via our Internet pagehttp://www.npolar.no/ris/ where updated information will be presented. We are grateful to allwho have contributed to making this year’s “Research in Svalbard” as complete as possible.Please contact Svalbard Science Forum should you require further information. For entries to the2005 edition, please look at our web page at the end of this year.

In Arctic marine ecosystems, primary production is partitioned between ice algae andphytoplankton. Reduced thickness and extent of sea ice associated with climatic shiftswill likely lead to changes in the relative proportions of these two components to totalprimary productivity. There are potentially significant implications of such changes tobenthic communities, which are totally dependent upon sedimenting organic matter fromthe overlying water column for their energetic requirements. To date it has been assumedthat because both ice algae and phytoplankton are dominated by taxonomically similarspecies (e.g. diatoms and flagellates), both sources of food are identical in quality.Several indirect observations challenge this assumption. However, the comparative rolesof ice algal- and phytoplankton-derived organic matter to the energetics of benthicspecies and communities has never been quantitatively addressed. We propose toinvestigate whether there are differences in the digestability of ice algae andphytoplankton-derived organic matter to Arctic benthos. We have designed a series ofship-board and land-based experiments to identify patterns of differential selection,absorption, and assimilation of ice algae and phytoplankton on whole benthiccommunities and selected dominant taxa, and we will carry out simultaneous, identicalexperiments in Svalbard and Alaska in order to assess whether results are region-specificor pan-Arctic in nature. This proposed project compliments and will derive synergisticbenefits from two funded projects: ARKTØK, funded by the Norwegian Research Councilin Norway, and a recently-funded NSF project in Kotzebue, Alaska.The principal objective of this project is to experimentally determine whether there aredifferences in the digestibility and nutritional quality of ice algae and phytoplankton-derived organic matter to Arctic benthic communities.

The principal objective of this project is to determine the sensitivity of the Arctic marineecosystem of northeast Spitsbergen to changing climate via sea ice cover in this region.This will be accomplished through the following subgoals:
· Quantify the timing and magnitude of primary production and its dominant sources forthe northern Svalbard shelf· Trace the trophic fate of the primary production in areas of different zooplanktonpopulation distributions· Measure benthic biomass and community characteristics in the areas· Relate the changes of carbon available both in quantity and origin to variations in iceconditions· Determine food web trophic structure and response to climate variability using stableisotope and fatty acid profilesWe aim to test the hypothesis that changing ice conditions associated with differentclimatic regimes drives primary production on the northern Svalbard shelf throughdifferent carbon sources (ice algae vs. phytoplankton). We propose that such variation inthe dominant source pathways of primary production has concomitant effects to both thepelagic and benthic systems, as well as the trophic pathways by which they are coupled.We will carry out an extensive field campaign, combined with laboratory analyses to test aseries of working hypotheses related to the primary producers, zooplankton, and benthiccomponents. Our test region is the northern Barents Sea near northeast Spitsbergenwhere sea ice varies on small spatial and temporal scales. We will compare systemsinfluenced predominantly by different water masses, i.e. Atlantic water (warm scenario)vs. Arctic water (cold scenario) and we will assess temporal aspects by sampling indifferent seasons (i.e. spring vs. autumn) and in different years.Ultimately, this study aims to provide insight into the energetic pathways and trophicstructure of this ecosystem and its stability versus sensitivity in the face of predictedfuture climate changes.

This project will examine benthic processes in arctic and mid-latitude regions in order toderive specific conclusions on the sensitivity of benthic organisms and communities toacute spills of petroleum-related chemicals and routine releases of drill cuttings. We willcarry out a series of controlled experiments on whole sediment communities andindividual benthic organisms with additions of drill cuttings and petroleum-associatedcontaminants, arriving at a set of hypotheses on the likely impacts on the benthos ofpetroleum production activities at higher latitudes. A series of testable hypotheses will beformulated based on an examination of real-world monitoring data sets collected underNorway's Petroleum Regional Monitoring Programme and results of mesocosmexperiments performed previously at the Norwegian Institute for Water Research (NIVA)Station at Solbergstrand. These data sets will be examined in order to identify thegeographic scope of responses to petroleum industrial activities. Through this work, weintend to propose procedures to improve the interpretation of benthic monitoring data fordiverse environmental regions in Norway. The project is linked to several on-going NFRprojects within the Polarklima programme. By involving a Ph.D. student the project willadvance the education and training of young scientists in the field of biological effectsstudies related to petroleum development and exploration activities.

Greenland cockles (Serripes groenlandicus) inhabit arctic soft bottoms. This cockle waschosen for detailed studies of one organism having presumably a dominant effect on softsediment succession. About 10 individuals will be sampled monthly over a year`s period.Since there is no scientific diving team available throughout the year bivalves will besampled, marked with the help of two parallel sanding discs fixed to a handhold electricdriller and released in stainless steel cages. In 2003 these cages were already installedunder the sediment surface in northern direction of the sheet piling of the harbour, at app.10-meter depth that they will not interfere with the docking ships. Cages were fixed to arope, which has been installed on the ground, turned around on a ground weight at thelower end of the sheet piling and fixed at the surface. Each month one cage will be liftedand cockles be frozen (-80°C) for further investigations (growth, reproductive cycle). Atthe laboratory in Bremerhaven, cockles will be measured to the lower mm and growthincrements calculated (e.g. Laudien et al 2003). These parameters will be used toestablish a von Bertalanffy growth function. Additionally acetate peels will be produced.The results will be needed for further investigations and age estimates from free livingcockles for future campaigns. The repro-ductive cycle of Serripes groenlandicus will beanalysed using histological methods.
During the campaign 2003 it was observed that Greenland cockles (Serripesgroenlandicus) were not as abundant in the study area (Kongsfjord) as in 2002. However,an area of higher abundances was found at an area between Forlandsundet andKvadehuken, where animals are planned to be collected for this project, if they did notrecover abundances found in 2002. The working group is experienced in the analysis ofpopulation dynamics of bivalves including age estimates and histologi-cal analyses(Laudien et al. 2001, Laudien 2002, Laudien et al. 2003).

The role of different food items of the arctic pelagic system in the diet of selectedsuspension feeders will be evaluated from in situ feeding experiments. Six transparentincubation chambers made from hemispherical pieces of acrylic glass and approximately1 litre in volume will be used. Selected suspension feeders like the cockle Serripesgroenlandicus or the octocoral Gersemia rubiformis will be collected about one week priorto the experiments and acclimated. At the beginning of each experiment individual testanimals will be fixed on the base of each experimental chamber. The be-haviour of theincubated specimens will be monitored with an underwater video device before andduring the experi-ment, confirming that the animals are actively filtering. During theacclimatisation period the outlet pipe of the incuba-tion chambers will not be connected tothe pump (open flow conditions). Thereafter three replicated initial water sam-ples will betaken from the outlet of each chamber. Then the outlet pipe will be connected to the inletof the pump pro-viding a recirculation of experimental water until the final water sampleswill be taken.
The time required to detect changes in the concentration of food sources will bedetermined by examining the Chloro-phyll a concentration within chambers with andwithout test animals over a period of 3 hours at 30 minutes intervals. Capture rates of thetested animals will be calculated using the variation in the concentration levels of bacteria,nan-oflagellates, ciliates, dinoflafellates, diatoms, Chorophyll a and total particulateorganic carbon/nitrogen as well as nutrients in the water samples in Bremerhaven.The role of zooplankton as prey of passive suspension feeders has been demonstrated inmany temperate and tropical regions (Sebens et al. 1996), but the value of trophically richprey as is the zooplankton to cover the food demand of benthic suspension feeders is asubject not yet well studied.
The working group is experienced in carrying out this kind of in situ experiments ascomparable studies with clams and corrals were conducted in co-operation in 2003 inSpain. The techniques to analyze the quantity of food items are well established at theAWI (chlorophyll a, Phytoplankton counts, PON and POC analyses) and the ICM(analyses for chlo-rophyll a, nutrients, flowcytometrie). Furthermore the working grouphas published several studies on the feeding biol-ogy of filer-feeders in co-operation (e.g.,Gili et al. 1998, Orejas et al. 2001, 2003, Laudien et al. in prep., Laudien and Gili in prep.).Additionally, several ecological studies were recently carried out in Kongsfjord andpublications are sub-mitted (Laudien et al. submitted., Herrmann in prep., Sahade et al.submitted). During the campaign 2003 it was ob-served that Greenland cockles (Serripesgroenlandicus) can be found within Kongsfjord. The octocorals Gersemia rubi-formis canbe found in satisfactory abundances near Hansneset.

Hard bottom succession panels (HBSP) at Kongsfordneset and soft bottom successioncontainers (SBSC) at Brandal installed in 2002 and recovered 2003 will again be sampledduring 2004. Photos of all 40 HBSP will be taken with a macro-lens in order to documentthe recolonisation over time. As already in 2003 five original panels will be removed fromthe installed adapters and replaced by new panels. Furthermore five of the 2003 replacedpanels will also be re-placed again in order to study annual differences in primarysuccession. Settled organisms will be removed in the labora-tory and fixed for lateridentification. Biomass will be estimated from a subsample in Bremerhaven, thereafterash free dry mass will be estimated.After the development and establishment of this new and improved method for theanalysis of succession and coloniza-tion patterns, focus will also be laid to obtaincomparable results. Thus a parallel set-up using traditional plates (15 x 15 cm) andfixations will be installed at Kongsfjordneset, In turn this will allow valid comparisonsbetween results obtained using the new method and the traditional one and thereforeopen the way for the extensive use of the new set up in other areas.
The ten natural areas of hard bottom cleaned and marked in 2003 will again bephotographed and the succession be monitored by image analyses in Bremerhaven. Thehard bottom succession will be followed during the next years. This year we will mark 10additional natural (uncleaned) surfaces in the same way with anchor screws. For thislong-term observation 10 additional small holes in the bedrock will be needed.Macrophotos of the surfaces of the 27 installed SBSC will be taken by SCUBA divers.Like in 2003 five SBSCs will be sampled by an underwater airlift system and speciescomposition analysed in the laboratory thereafter. Again individuals will be counted,measured, weighted and thereafter ashed in order to calculate ash free dry mass. TheBenthonit/sand mixture
In 2002 41 succession panels were installed at Kongsfjordneset at a depth of 20 metres.During the campaign 2003 the panels were successfully recovered and sampled.Although a huge effort has been undertaken over the last 15 years this project (KOP 51)was the first successful attempt to recover succession panels in the arctic environment!Five panels were sampled and replaced by new ones. At the moment the identification ofthe fauna is being carried out showing that hydrozoans, bryozoans and barnacles are thefirst colonizing taxa. Furthermore during 2001 and 2002 photo transects were undertakento describe the natural fauna, two publications are submitted and oral presentations at theCongreso Argentino de Ciencias del Mar in Mar del Plata were given.Additionally 27 Terracotta containers filled with a Benthonit/sand mixture were installed insoft sediments at Brandal (18 metres depth) in 2002. Again this project was successful asall the containers could be recovered in 2003 and five of them sampled as planned.Animals were fixed and the majority has been identified. Additionally we sampled thenatural fauna inhabiting the research area with the same method. This comparison iscurrently undertaken as a diploma thesis.

Our studies are divided in four parts:1. We will measure the UV raqdiation regime both at the surface and underwater.2. The study will conducted to describe the UVR susceptibility of zoospores of brownalgae in relation to their depth distribution. Arctic species might be particularly affecteddue to the ozone losses over the Arctic and the related increase in UVBR levels. We willdescribe the protective potential of these propagules by the formation of phlorotannincontaining physodes during and after an exposure to artificial UVR in the laboratory.Additionally, we will conduct studies on the performance of spores in the field3. The effect of enhanced ultraviolet radiation on gene expression is studied in differentmacroalgal species, the two brown algae Laminaria saccharina and Laminaria digitataand the green algae Monostroma arcticum and Acrosiphonia arcta. The algal material willbe colleceted by divers from different depths and will then be exposed to UV-radiation ofvarious intensities and spectral properties in the laboratory and in the field. The mainemphasis is to assess effects of naturally occuring UV-levels on gene expression ofvarious macroalgae and to correlate these results to growth rate measurements.Additional experiments with artificial UV-radiation in the lab are also planned to supportthe field-data with measuremnts at well defined conditions.4. The succession of benthic primary producers in the upper sublittoral will beinvestigated under four different light regimes (PAR, PAR+UVA, PAR+UVA+UVB, fullsunlight) along the shoreline of Kongsfjorden. The aim of the project is the estimation ofearly, mid- and long-term effects of ultraviolet radiation (UVR) on the succession ofbenthic macroalgae communities. Moreover, the physiological and molecularbiologicalproperties of characteristic species of the succession process will be analysed under theaspect of UV-resistance/UV-sensitivity. The study comprises in situ measurements ofphotosyn
So far we have focussed mainly on the physiological effects of UV radiation on marinemacroalgae from Kongsfjorden. But little is known on UV effects on the molecular effects,especially on gene expression, on the effects on reproduction and on the effects oncommunities. This gap will be filled by our studies described above.

Adoption in geese - does caring for non-genetic offspring make sense? In geese adoptionis a common phenomenon. Upto 25% of the goslings is not raised by their geneticparents. Earlier studies indicate that increasing their family size might benefit the parentsas well as their genetic kids. On the other hand , adoption might be a strategy by theadopted gosling to obtain better parental care and thus better chances for survival. Bymarking goslings with tape flags and webtags at hatch, adoption can be studied in thefield. Around hatching time, daily nest checks will be carried out and goslings marked,while at the same time 24 hour observations of family composition will be carried out fromfixed hides in the breeding colony and on the grazing areas.
Adoption in barnacle geese was studied in the Kongsfjorden area in 2003 byobservational as well as experimental approach. Due to time limitations and highpredation pressure by arctic foxes, the observational data contains very few resightings ofgoose families with goslings. However, the few adoptions we did observe indicateinteresting patterns about the identity of goose pairs which loose goslings to otherfamilies. The study in 2004 is aiming to increase this data set and make a thoroughstatistical analysis possible.The results from the experimental part of the 2003 study on adoption also yielded someinteresting data, which indicates that goslings might in fact choose families they approachfor adoption. This data is currently being prepared for submission for puplication. Further,two master projects at the University of Groningen are being finished at the moment onthe experimental and observational parts of the study in 2003.

The population of Barnacle Geese in Kongsfjorden has been followed in detail, withringing, measuring and observing individual geese since 1990. The populationdevelopment is largely affected by the fluctuating presence of Arctic Foxes. Individualstrategies of geese are examined and experimentally manipulated to determine their pay-offs in fitness. Population census are made in close cooperation with G. Gabrielsen ofNPI.Digestive constraints during growth in barnacle goose goslings. Geese have a relativelysimple digestive tract. They utilize almost none of the cell walls in their food leaving mostof the energy in their faeces (which are eaten by reindeer). In 6 weeks time, goslings growfrom 70 grammes at hatch to nearly 1500 grammes at fledging and their intestines aregoing through a similar size development. Consequently their digestion must improve.Families are usually feeding on the tundra while non-breeders feed on moss. Tis dietdifference is related to the digestive efficiency of goslings. By collecting faeces ofindividual goslings at different ages, we study diet selection and gosling size in moredetail. This study is in cooperation with I. Jonnsdottir of UNIS.Has goose grazing led to changes in the environment? We plan to collect data onvegetation change, goose utilization and goose diet and breeding birds over the lastdecade. Preliminary comparison of photo's from 10 years ago, show a large difference invegetation structure. Much of these changes have been attributed to reindeer grazing. Wehope to show the effect of goose grazing and want to do experiments on the reversibilityof these changes using exclosures. This study is in close cooperation with F. Mehlum.Adoption in geese is studied through intensified observations of visually marked wildgoslings in cooperation with E. Kalmbach.
The barnacle goose population in Kongsfjorden is studied in detail, with annual catching,ringing and measuring and observation of individual geese since 1990. The localpopulation established in 1982 and went through a rapid period of growth until 1993.Since then, the population stabilizes on a total number of adults between 700 to 1200individuals. Polar fox predation varies between years. In years with foxes, survival ofgoslings is low, but also the surviving goslings are driven in heavily grazed safe areas,grow slowly and starve. With foxes, the population would stabilize around 700 adults. Inyears without foxes, more area of tundra is available and carrying capacity would bereached with 1200 adults. Individual geese are under severe intraspecific competition.Only few individuals are able to raise goslings which become breeding birds in later years.These dominant geese rely on subordinate flock members for finding the best foodpatches. The vegetation is changing under the heavy grazing pressure. This process isstudied with exclosures and small scale vegetation manipulations.Stahl, J., P. Tolsma, M.J.J.E. Loonen & R.H.

FRAGILE: Fragility of arctic goose habitat: impacts of land use, conservation andelevated temperatures
Both large numbers of arctic breeding geese and climate change have the potential ofchanging and even destroying the arctic ecosystem. The program FRAGILE, funded bythge European Union, will explore the potential for these devastating effects in theEuropean arctic, especially Spitsbergen. In an experimental way, we hope to identify thetundra ecosystem processes which are most vulnerable to the combined drivers of highgoose grazing pressure and climatic warming. Plots of arctic tundra vegetation (laid out inAdventdalen) will be grazed by captive geese in various intensity. In a full factorial designalso global warming is simulated using open top chambers. The effects of thesetreatments will be studied in detail, focussing on ecosystem carbon balance, nutrientcycling, community structure (plants and microbes) en ecosystem stability. An experimentlocated in Ny-Ålesund will focus on the effect of increased amount of goose droppings onthe biomass of primary producers and the knock-on effects throughout the aquatic foodweb. A field survey at Nordenskioldkysten hopes to correlate aquatic parameters withgoose presence. With our experiments, we determine thresholds for arctic tundraecosystem degradation. The entire project FRAGILE also involves the modelling of goosenumbers based on habitat availability over the entire flyway and goose energetics forperforming the whole annual cycle. In combination with the tundra and lake experiments amodel will be constructed to predict carrying capacity of Svalbard tundra for geese andpotential effects of likely future goose populations. 2004 is the second out of three fieldseasons.
In the summer of 2002, we have selected a study site in Adventdalen. Experimental plotswere staked out in both a wet and a dry vegetation type. In 2003, we used four geesecaught in Ny-Ålesund for grazing the vegetation plots. Treatments differed in grazingpressure and temperature enhancement. Responses were measured in terms of carbonbalance, nitrogen balance and phenology of plants. Most changes were observed in thewet habitat. Preferred food plants are depleted. Goose grazing decreases the capacity ofthe tundra to act as a carbon sink. Temperature enhancement causes a small positiveeffect on the amount of carbon incorporated in the tundra.Extra studies are initiated on the following items: a. the effect of moisture on elementcycles, b. the effect of grubbing by geese in early spring on vegetation recovery, c. theeffect of various forms of phosphate on the vegetation d. a comparison of goslingperformance with adult goose performance e. trampling effects on vegetation.For up-to-date information we refer to our website: http://www.fragile-eu.net

A co-operative project between France and Norway is proposed to study the physiologicalmechanisms (hormones and metabolic rate) involved in the regulation of parental effort(brood size) in an Arctic-breeding seabird, the kittiwake Rissa tridactyla. This project willbe carried out at Kongsfjorden (Ny Ålesund, Svalbard) which constitutes one thenorthernmost (79° N) breeding site of the species. The main goal of this project is tounderstand the reasons of the very poor productivity of the species in this high-arctic area(only one chick/pair/year compared to 2-3 chicks/ pair/year in more temperate areas). Todo so, we will concurrently study the metabolic cost of chick rearing and the metaboliccost of foraging. To test whether parent kittiwakes are apparently unable to rear morethan one chick, we will manipulate brood size and will measure its consequences onbasal metabolic rate (BMR) and foraging activity. We will experimentally manipulate thebrood size by swapping chicks between nests shortly after hatching. Parent birds of thedifferent experimental groups will be captured, weighted and a small blood sample (500µL) will be taken for thyroid hormones. BMR will be estimated through thyroïd hormones(Chastel et al. 2003, J. Avian Biol. 34: 298-306), a method that reduces handling timeimposed by the use of a respirometer, whereas activity at sea will be estimated usingminiature activity recorders (Daunt et al., 2002 Mar. Ecol. Prog. Ser.245 : 239-247,Tremblay et al. 2003, J. Exp. Biol. 206: 1929-1940). Nests of the different groups (12nests with 2 chicks and 12 nest with 1 chick) will be observed during 2 weeks after whatparent birds will be recaptured, and bled again for T3 assay. On an other group of birds(N=10), we will calibrate these miniature activity recorders (N=10, weight:5 g) byobserving the activities (rest, brooding, flying, etc..) of the instrumented birds in thecolony. Food samples (N=12) will be collected from parent birds during capture
We have previously shown that in kittiwakes rearing chicks, they was a significantdecrease in basal metabolic rate. This decrease in basal metabolic rate might be adaptiveand may allow the adults to diminish their maintenance costs and increase workload(FMR) to provision the chicks. Our hypothesis is that the ability of kittiwakes to increaseits FMR during foraging is constrained by the need for the BMR to decrease. Feeding anextra chick would lead to an increase of the level of activity at sea. Accordingly, this mayimpose a further reduction in BMR which may set the physiological limit regulating broodsize in this arctic-breeding kittiwake population. Because an increase in workloadimposed by the rearing of an extra-chick has to be balanced by food intake, we will alsostudy the energy content of the food brought back to the chicks by collecting mealsthroughout the chick-rearing period. Studies conducted on the energetic of breedingkittiwakes have shown that there was a strong repeatability of basal metabolic rate (BMR)within individuals (Bech et al, 1999 Proceeding Royal Society 266: 2161-2167). Thissuggests that some individuals have consistently higher levels of energy expenditure thanothers and raises the question of the fitness consequences of having a low or high BMR.We have shown in house sparrow Passer domesticus that individuals with a high BMR,laid their eggs early in the season and, as a consequence, achieved a greater annualreproductive success (Chastel et al. 2003, J. Avian Biol. 34: 298-306). Th is programm onarctic-breeding kittiwakes would allow measurement of the influence of individual variation

Ecological and physiological adaptations of incubating birds during long-term fasting
The aim of this programme was to study the physiological and behavioural adaptations tothe incubation fast in the female eider. This leads to study fundamental questions aboutthree complementary field researches described below.General programme:1. Evolutionary and ecological approaches: energetic costs of reproduction duringincubationIn long-lived birds as Eider, there must be trade-offs between the energy allocated ingrowth and in reproduction. Therefore, individuals develop different reproductivestrategies in relation with biotic and non biotic factors to maximize their fitness. Amongfactors tested, we will first measure the effects of animal density on female reproductivesuccess. Additionally, we will measure, thanks to genetic tests, the frequency of intra-specific nest parasitism and extra-pair copulations to link these events with femalebehavioural decisions. To link reproductive effort with female immunocompetence, we willthen perform PHA (phytohaemagglutinine) skin tests at different stages of the incubationperiod. Finally, we will perform clutch reductions at different stages of the incubationperiod in order to highlight decision rules controlling nest desertion in females.2. Physiological and ecological approaches: parental investment in reproductionIn a first experiment, we will focus on the implication of prolactin and corticosterone in thecontrol of parental decision at the hatching stage. Implantation of exogenous hormoneswill be done on nesting birds to evaluate the respective role of these two hormones in thecontrol of parental decisions in eiders.Parental investment in incubation can be regulated by the reproductive value of the clutchsize.

Physiological approach: regulation of body fuel utilization during fastingThe
During the first five campaigns of this project carried out in Ny-Ålesund, we determinedsome important characteristics of the biology of incubating female eiders (sleep timeevolution, recess behaviour, nest attendance, stress response, plasmatic concentrationsof hormones and metabolites, reaction following human disturbance). After this generaldescription of the ecophysiology of eiders, we described the prolactin changes related toan artificial prolongation of incubation and characterized a refeeding behaviour.Common Eider females seemed to adopt new incubation behaviour when facing anexperimentally extended incubation period. Relating to the sequential mobilisation of itsbody reserves, this shift in behaviour can be associated to the achieved low threshold ofthe amount of body lipids.During the last year, our principal aim was to determine (i) the behaviour of the femalewhen taking a recess at sea (is it eating?), (ii) the evolution of plasma prolactin levelduring extended incubation, (iii) the effect of corticosterone and prolactin chronic injectionon bird behaviour, (iiii) which factor(s) induce(s) the final nest desertion.

In a context of global change, arctic ecosystems are exposed to deep modifications notonly of the biology and ecology of endemic species but also of the interactions they mayhave with an increasing number of introduced species. This project attempts to assess inSvalbard, the impacts of global changes on aphids. These phytophagous insects areparticularly relevant organisms for studies on the effects of global warming and biologicalinvasion because 1) of their extreme sensitivity to micro- and macro- changes due to theirspectacular rate of increase and phenotypic plasticity and 2) of their colonizing capacityconferred by their parthenogenetic mode of reproduction and their dispersal potential. Theobjectives for the annual programme are three folds: 1) to have a first assessment of theenvironmental factors that influence the most aphid population biology in Svalbard, 2) toprecise on site with our French and Norwegian colleagues specialized on plant ecology inSvalbard a joint programme on plant-aphid interactions and 3) to initiate in the field the 3years work programme.The field work includes:1) Composition of aphid species in Svalbard : prospecting and identification2) Habitat characterization of aphid species and colonization rate3) Assessment of the relative importance of endemic and introduced species : elaborationof a sampling design for a temporal survey of aphid population dynamics over the wholegrowing season during the next two years4) First approach of population genetic structure of the endemic species Acyrthosiphonsvalbardicum : several populations will be collected in geographically distant sites andgenotyped in the lab. Between population differentiation and inbreeding coefficient will beassessed based on population structure analyses.

The project focus is on photosynthetic responses of Arctic macroalgae to changing abioticconditions. Key species along the shoreline of Kongsfjorden will be studied for thecombined effects of increased ultraviolet radiation and seawater temperature, accordingto scenarios of climate change. The addressed changes in physico-chemical conditionswill exert hitherto unknown effects on macroalgal physiology. We will compare responsesof specimens collected along depth gradients, by exposing them in temperature controlledmesocosm systems, shielded with filter foils or additionally equipped with UV-fluorescenttubes. We will conduct in situ-measurements of photosynthetic performance andconserve algae for later physiological analysis in the laboratory. These surveys willinclude changes in pigment composition including the regulatory xanthophyll cycle, as animportant protection system in the response to high light stress, induction of stress (heatshock) proteins, DNA damage and the generation of reactive oxygen species. Results willallow new insights in the reaction of species physiology upon environmental changes. Incombination with datasets from physical oceanography it will be possible to drawconclusions on the development of macroalgal communities in response to climatechange.

Plankton of shallow polar freshwater water bodies is exposed to increasing levels ofultraviolet radiation (UVR) due to the limited water depth. Daphnia (Crustacea, waterflea)and algae are common representatives of the food chain in these water bodies. Daphniaalmost exclusively use lipids for energy storage, which they obtain from their food (mainlyalgae). Therefore, Daphnia and algae are closely linked to each other. Preliminaryexperiments on the UV-induced damage in phyto- and zooplankton point to lipids as oneof the key players. With this application we want to identify how algae specific lipids andfatty acids (FA) are modified by UVR. The factors modifying UV-doses to the animals andtheir food are depth of the waterbody and DOC (absorbs UV). A pondsurvey shall providea wide spectrum on ponds which vary in DOC and depth. Lipid analysis of Daphnia andtheir food of these ponds as well as physical parameters of the pond waters shall identifycorrelations between UV-exposure and specific fatty acids. This shall enable us toestimate the effect of solar UVR on the freshwater plankton community in polar ponds.
The project will start in June 2004. No results on high arctic habitats are yet available. Asimilar survey has started in subarctic Kilpisjärvi (Finland) area last summer. Results willbe published in:Zellmer I.D., M.T. Arts, D. Abele and K. Humbeck. 2004. Evidence ofsub-lethal damage in Daphnia (Cladocera) due to solar UV radiation insub-Arctic ponds. Journal of Arctic, Antarctic and Alpine Research.Special issue. 36(2):0000-0000 (in press).

The project aims at elucidating the interactions between climatic variability and thedynamics of a predator-prey/host parasite system. The population dynamics of the siblingvole Microtus epiroticus in the Grumantbyen area are strongly influenced by the qualityand quantity of snow, and in particular icing events which result in extensive populationcrashes. The parasite Echinococcus multilocularis has the sibling vole as intermediatehost, and the arctic fox as final host. We will make field measurements of snowcharacteristics as well as intensive studies of the vole and fox populations. Prevalences ofEchinococcus will be estimated based on blood and feces samples taken in the field.
· In mid-April 2002, 2003 and 2004, we sampled snow depth along three transects at 50,100 and 150 meters a.s.l., and recorded snow properties in snow pits located along the 4ridges used as sampling locations for voles.· In early August and September 2002, the temperature loggers and thermistor chainswere installed according to the application send to the Governor of Svalbard.· In early July, early August and early September 2002 and 2003, we live-trapped the fourridges, Grumantbyen area, as well as a new area between ridge 2 and ridge 3 which wastrapped in 1990-96. Densities were very low in 2002, but high in 2003 as a consequenceof vole reproduction in late spring 2003. Blood samples were taken in July, August andSeptember 2003, and the samples will be processed later this spring.· In early August 2002 and 2003, most of the area along Fuglefjella, E and W ofGrumantbyen, was surveyed for vole signs, and patches with vole signs were snap-trapped to get EM prevalence data.· In early August 2002 and 2003, the area below and above the main seabirds colonieswere surveyed for arctic fox dens. Three active dens with pups were identifiedin 2002.Other dens, probably used only as rest dens, were mapped.· In early July, early August and early September 2002 and 2003, feces densities wereestimated using line transect methods in the 6 live-trapping areas. Approximately 50transects, each ca. 20 m. long, have been established and permanently marked. Fecescollected (ca. 200) will be further analysed for presence of EM.Ims, R.A., Fuglei E., Mørk T., Stien, A. and Yoccoz N.G. 2003 Forekomst avøstmarkmus, polarrev og parasitten Echinococcus multilocularis i Grumantområdetsommeren 2003.

The project aims to study the influence of natural winter emaciation in an arctic top-predator on organochlorine contaminant tissue distribution, bioavailability and biologicalimpact. Arctic animals utilize periods with high food availability for feeding and lipiddeposition, whereas they rely on stored lipids during unfavourable periods. Hence, manyarctic inhabitants exhibit profound seasonal cycles of fattening and emaciation. In theArctic, feeding is associated with fat deposition and contaminant accumulation. Whenlipids are mobilized, accumulated contaminants are released into the circulation.Consequently, blood contaminant concentrations may increase markedly and result in aredistribution of the contaminant(s) from "insensitive", adipose tissues to sensitive organs,and increased contaminant bioavailability. Such variations complicate interpretations ofpollutant toxicity, both in effect studies and in monitoring programs, and remains animportant future research area. In the present study, we will use the arctic fox (Alopexlagopus) as a model species for investigating tissue distribution and bioavailability oforganochlorine contaminants in relation to natural variations in lipid status (fieldstudy).One old, male arctic fox, with low levels of body fat, was trapped in July in 2003,and we plan to trap up to 6 summer-adapted foxes between July and August 2004. Wecollected winter-adapted foxes, with high levels of body fat, from the annual fur-trappingseason on Svalbard in 2003-2004.
The project started in 2003

The objective of the study is to determine the relative density of territorial Svalbard RockPtarmigan (Lagopus mutus hyperboreus) males in order to monitor long-term trends ofthe populations. The survey will be conducted in Adventdalen and Sassendalen in April2004. Point counts for 20 minutes from approximately 100 set geographical positions witha distance of 1-2 kilometers in between will be conducted 2-3 times during the studyperiod. Relative densities of males are calculated by using the program DistanceSampling. Use of indexes to describe trend lines will developed.
The previous surveys are described in unpublished annual reports (in Norwegian) to theNorwegian Polar Institute and the Governor of Svalbard. The results will be publishedinternationally after five years of monitoring data are obtained.

The main objectives of the current proposal are to investigate the effects of a suite oforganohalogen contaminants on the metabolic systems of glaucous gulls, and to examinethe implication of circulating thyroid hormone levels in the model. For this purpose, a totalof 20 adult glaucous gulls will be captured on their nests during the incubation period atBjørnøya. Various metabolic system measurements will be carried out, i.e. basalmetabolic rate (BMR) and field metabolic rate (FMR), and each bird will be sampled forblood, and finally released in the colony. The present project is part of a three-year (2004-2006) doctoral fellowship (NFR; project no. 160919/V10-Jonathan Verreault) assessingthe effects of organohalogen contaminants and metabolites of organohalogens on theendocrine, enzymatic, and metabolic systems of glaucous gulls from Bjørnøya.Briefly, the adult glaucous gulls will be captured during the incubation period, i.e. fromMay 20th to June 20th 2004. The trap consists of a snare placed on the edge of the nestbowl and attached to a mechanism triggered by a radio transmitter. Measurements ofFMR will be performed by the use of doubly labelled water (DLW), according to publishedmethods by Nagy (1980). Immediately following capture, the birds will be injected 3 mL ofDLW (H218O) into the pectoral muscle. A blood sample (1 mL) will be taken from eachindividual 1 hour after injection of DLW, and released in the colony. The birds will be re-captured within 2 days of DLW injection and a second blood sample will be taken. Thissecond blood sample (12 mL for 1500g of body weight), collected from the brachial veinof the wing, will also be used for measurements of organohalogen contaminant andthyroid hormone levels. The field procedures for measurement of FMR are described byGabrielsen et al. (1991) and Ellis and Gabrielsen (2001). Measurements of BMR will beperformed by the use of indirect calorimetry on the same glaucous gulls captured for FMRmeasur
This NFR doctoral project has just started and has generated to date 1 publication fromsamples of glaucous gulls collected in 2001 on Bjørnøya. One publication is currently inpreparation for samples of glaucous gulls collected in 2002 from the same study area,and 2 additional publications are also anticipated from this work.Publications:Verreault J, Skaare JU, Jenssen BM, Gabrielsen GW. 2004.

ARKTØK
The archipelago of Svalbard was almost completely ice-covered during the lastglaciation. The most thermophilous plants occurring there today must therefore havearrived postglacially by long-distance dispersal. Such species (e.g. dwarf birch, arcticblueberry) are probably relics from the hypsithermal, which was 1-2 °C warmer thantoday. Climate models predict an increase of the average temperature by 3-3.5 °C from1990 to 2070 in Svalbard. Thus, even more thermophilous species may establish, giventhat they are able to cross the oceans. Species such as mountain birch, grey willows, andblueberry dominate more southern ecosystems and will cause ecological cascade effectsif they succeed to establish in Svalbard. We will use molecular markers (AFLPs, DArTs,transposon displays, cpDNA markers), genotype assignment tests, and phylogeneticanalyses to identify source areas and frequency of previous immigrations of plant speciesto Svalbard, to estimate dispersal abilities of putative immigrant species that have not yetarrived, and to compare the likelihood for successful immigrations of species that arebird-dispersed, wind-dispersed, and without particular adaptations. The research teamcombines molecular, phylogeographic, and paleoclimatological expertise and will train twopost-doc, one PhD, and several MAs.Plant samples have been collected in the Kongsfjorden/Krossfjorden area and aroundIsfjorden during previous seasons. In 2004, we hope to have samples also from moreremote areas. A master student may go on fieldwork in Hornsund area and volunteercontacts might sample during boat trips around Spitsbergen.
A large amount of plant samples have been analysed for molecular variation andpreliminary results were presented on a conference in Leeds August 2003. One Masterstudent, Inger Skrede, has finished her thesis, and one more, Kristine Westergaard willfinish in June 2004.

The goal of the project is to study the structure of the arctic fox population within sub-populations, and migrations between and within sub-populations on the Svalbardarchipelago. This is of importance for the management of the arctic fox trapping onSvalbard, but also in general for this species dispersal ecology on the archipelago.Samples to be analysed are collected through two sources:1. More than 600 arctic fox carcasses trapped from 9 different locations on Svalbard havebeen collected from the annual arctic fox trappers on Svalbard since 1996. All carcassesare transported to the Norwegian Polar Institute in Tromsø for storing, and samples ofmuscles have been taken out and are stored frozen.2. Arctic fox faeces are collected from as many locations as possible on Svalbard fromdifferent field parties.

The project aims at investigating the reproductive biology of the snow bunting, and howthe species, which is the only regularly breeding passerine species in Svalbard, hasadapted to the special environment, and how its behaviour is related to the reproductivesuccess. Behavioural features (e.g. song, mate guarding, extra-pair copulations (EPC),incubation feeding, parental care, diurnal activity) and structural features (e.g. variation inplumage, biometric features) are analysed in relation to environmental variables, matechoice, timing of breeding and breeding success. General reproduction data and survivaldata are collected over years and analysed in relation to population dynamics andenvironmental adaptations. Blood samples are taken from family groups for DNA-fingerprinting. Adult and juvenile site fidelity, dispersal and philopatry is studied on the basis ofrecoveries and resightings of individually ringed birds. Special attention will be paid to thesignificance of hatching asynchrony and variation in egg size, and the termoregulaturydevelopment in the young.
In the past 6 years more than 500 breeding pairs have been monitored with respect toe.g. onset and length of breeding season (considerable annual variations), polyterritoriality(three recorded instances), double clutches (none in 1998, 2000 and 2001, nine, four andone in 1999, 2002 and 2003, respectively), mate guarding (males guard their matesintensively 3-4 days prior to egglying), extent of EPC (approx. 10 % of DNA-finger printedyoung are EPO), song quality and song rate vs male quality (only song rate seems to beassociated with male quality), parental care (both parents normally participate in feedingthe chicks), clutch size (approx. 6 eggs and 5.5 chicks per clutch), breeding success (3-4fledged young/cluch; variation mainly caused by varying predation pressure). More than1500 snow buntings (ad. and pull.) have been ringed with metal and colour rings, mainlyfor monitoring population dynamics and recording of site fidelity and returningrate/philoparty. Preliminary results indicate a high rate of returning to previous breedingsites.Publications:Espmark, Y. 1999.

In spring, thousands of geese migrate from temperate wintering areas to Svalbard. Beforearriving at their breeding grounds they stage in pre-breeding areas in Southern Svalbardto supplement their body reserves. For geese, feeding conditions in spring are suggestedto be crucial for their breeding success and, hence, influence population dynamics. Forplants, however, the outcome of grazing depends on intensity and timing of the event.Global change may alter the phenology for both, goose migration and plant growth, andthus, alter their relationship. Accordingly, only by examining the phenology of geese andplants, mechanisms controlling this relationship can be fully understood. Consequently,this three-years-study will involve (1) an examination of goose feeding habits in a pre-breeding area for geese in Svalbard, (2) an assessment of forage impact on thevegetation, by experimental altering the timing and intensity of the grazing, and (3) anevaluation of the consequences of feeding conditions for the reproductive performance ofthe geese. Very little is known about the pre-breeding areas for Arctic-nesting geese andthis study will contribute to close the gap of knowledge of the present state and possiblefuture development in such areas.
Arrival and departure date as well as body condition of all 3 Svalbard goose species inVårsolbukta could be registered in spring 2003. For the barnacle geese staging in thatarea also staging time, diet, time budget of individual geese were assessed. In addition,general conditions in the area, eg. time of snowmelt, temperature, plant growth weremonitored.

The purpose of this project is to compare spatial distribution and species composition ofhigh altitude plant species in existing vegetation, seedling emergence, seed rain and thegerminable seed bank in order to determine the potential for change in vegetationcommunity structure with climate change.All data collection for this project will be completed in 2004, with fieldwork on Svalbardfrom May - September, and germination of seeds in Tromsø from September - December2004. Based on site accessibility and minimal influence from mining activities, sixtransects have been chosen in furrows or valleys ascending north-facing slopes ofmountains bordering the South side of Adventdalen, Svalbard. Transects are from 100mto 500m in altitude. At each 100m elevation interval, for a total of 5 intervals per transect,a 5 x 5 m sampling area will be marked out. In each sampling area, 10 snow core and 25soil cores will be taken, 5 seed mats and one temperature logger laid out (May-September) and 4 vegetation analysis and 4 seedling analysis will be conducted. Seedmat and snow core debris and soil cores will be used in germination trials in Tromsø fromSeptember - December to identify species present in the germinable seed rain and seedbank.
This is the first year of this study.

Although density dependent reduction in reproductive success is a well-studiedphenomenon in animal ecology, the exact mechanism is often largely understood. Theincreasing size of several populations of arctic-breeding goose populations calls forfurther study in order to make predictions on population developments in the future. Thisstudy focuses on a local population of barnacle geese on the west coast of Svalbard, thathas been intensively studied during the past 25 years. In line with growth of the totalpopulation (7000 in 1977, and approximately 25000 today), the population in the studyarea has more than tripled. The research of this year will involve a wide array ofassessments on geese throughout the incubation period and early brood-rearing (bodycondition, food intake, demographic parameters) and on the tundra vegetations that areused by the geese (biomass availability, production, and grazing intensity by herbivores).
Twenty years ago the study area produced a substantial proportion of all juveniles in thebarnacle goose population. Since 1986 the numbers of goslings raised droppeddrastically, although the total number of adults still increases. The main reason for thisdrop is hypothesised to be the limited amount of food resources. This limitation may occurduring pre-breeding, during the egg-stage or during the brood-rearing period.Drent RH, Black JM, Loonen MJJE, Prop J (1998) Barnacle geese Branta leucopsis onNordenskiöldkysten, western Spitsbergen -in thirty years from colonisation to saturation.Norsk Polarinst Skrifter 200: 105-114Prop J, De Vries J (1993) Impact of snow and food conditions on the reproductiveperformance of barnacle geese Branta leucopsis.

The objective of the proposed research with arctic higher plants and snow algae is tostudy the range of adaptation of photosynthetic metabolism, of antioxidative and sunscreen compounds in a cold and reduced UV-B climate in comparison with data alreadyobtained from the high Alps, with plants living partially under colder and different lightregimes, especially higher UV-B. Further, the ultrastructure of leaf cells will be studied toascertain, whether adaptations found in some high alpine plants occur similarly in arcticplants, and to connect cytological results with metabolic functions..It is the advantage ofthe planned work, that a number of investigations ranging from ultrastructural studies overdifferent aspects of photosynthesis to assays of UV-B sensitive compounds andantioxidants will be conducted mostly with measurements and sample collection in thefield during the same experimental day at one place. Therefore we expect a goodconnection of the data raised, back to the plant system and expect a much broaderdescription of vitality and adaptation under the cold and light conditions. This is acontinuation of the project from 2002 at Ny-Alesund
Previous work with high mountain plants was mainly done with selected members from arange of plant families growing in the alpine and nivale zones. Several of those plants arealso found in the arctic as the same species, but other ecotypes, or as close relatives tothese alpine species. The main interest of our work is to understand whether the range ofadaptation of plants from alpine and arctic ecosystems differ under natural influences(mainly climate stress), but also how the evolutionary selected stress resistance will beinfluenced by anthropogenic impacts like UV-B or ozone.Our work covers ultrastructural studies (Lütz and Moser 1977, Lütz 1987, Lütz 1996,Larcher et al. 1997), extended field measurements (up to 3200 m) of photosynthesis andmicroclimate followed by plastid and membrane physiology studies (Bergweiler and Lütz1986, Lütz 1996). Other work included description of the metabolic status, especially ofantioxidants and pigments (Wildi and Lütz 1996).Concerning algae, the UV-B resistance of Desmidiaceae, which can be found as high as2700 m in alpine peat bogs, has been described for photosynthesis, pigments, organelles,cytosceleton (Meindl and Lütz 1996, Lütz et al. 1997) and experiments will continue. TheDesmidiaceae are a well introduced biological system to study cytoskeleton function,recently to understand adaptive and regulatory processes (Holzinger 2000, Holzinger andLütz-Meindl 2001). The cold stability of the cytoskeleton is not well understood; ourplanned studies including Desmidiaceae found in ponds in Svalbard, and including snowalgae, take up this cellular question with new organisms.References:Bergweiler, P., Lütz, C., 1986: Determination of leaf pigments by HPLC after extractionwith N,N-Dimethylformamide: Ecophysiological Applications.

In this project we will investigate the impact of increased UV radiation on planktonic foodwebs in the Arctic. The experiments will focus on changes in lipid composition, fatty acidsand the nutritional quality of microalgae and zooplankton. UV radiation is a keydeterminant of oxidation of poly-unsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) in phytoplankton. ThesePUFAs cannot be synthesized de novo in zooplankton, but are key molecules for themarine pelagic food web via zooplankton to fish, particularly in the Arctic. Enhanced UVradiation could thus strongly affect structure and energy transfer in these food webs.During our stay in Ny Ålesund we will take samples (phytoplsnkton and zooplankton) fromdifferents depths, under different radiation conditions and during different stages of thespring bloon. Furthermore, we plan feeding experiments in the laboratory with irradiatedalgae fed to Calanus. The material will be analysed with respect to the fatty acidcomposition, CHN and P, content of MAA's (mycosporine alike amino acids) and growthparameters.
The data from the field sampling campaign have been analysed and are waiting forstatistical analysis now , a publication is in preparation. The experimental part didn't showthe expected effects, probably due to low UV doses applied.
Laboratory experiments in Oslo with a number of different diatom cultures revealed clearspecies-specific differences in their response to UV-radiation.

The project deals with a thorough study of Rugosa corals from Carboniferous andPermian on Spitsbergen. Using the results of my area investigation of the area carried outduring my stay on Spitsbergen in 1999 as well as data included in world-wide professionalliterature I have noticed that it seems very promising that abundant coral fauna maychange the existing multi-variant interpretation of the complicated geological structure ofSpitsbergen, and in many cases, it can make it more precise. I believe thatcomplementing those studies with new research carried out not only in the WestSpitsbergen, along fiord coasts explored the most often, but also inland in, among otherplaces, Polakkfjellet (in this year) and on the adjacent islands of Edgeoya, Barents andNordaustlandet in the future, will allow for determining the impact of, among other things,abiotic environment on the succession series and ecologic variability of corals. I hope thaton the basis of a detailed research of the coral fauna from the entire archipelago, it will bepossible to present a systematic development process of the ecosystem taking place notonly in time but in space too. Rugosa corals as the most abundant and most preciousgroup of Spitsbergen fossils contain information enabling to determine ecological issuesconcerning the analysed areas and provide significant data for the local and globalstratigraphy of places poor in conodont elements and foraminifers. Due to a small numberof studies concerning Rugosa corals on Spitsbergen, the above subject matter maybecome an important contribution to gap-bridging in stratigraphy, tectonics and broadpalaeoecology. I assume that the research results will turn out useful in developingmodels of geological structure and tectonic evolution of Spitsbergen in Carboniferous andPermian periods.

The overall goal of the project is to map the 3D geometry of karst-solution and fracturesystems in carbonate sedimentary rock. The motivation is that very little is known aboutthe meter-scale, 3-D architecture of carbonate buildups. Ancient carbonate buildups areof interest for understanding processes of modern reef creation and destruction, for waterresources and waste disposal in areas typified by carbonate bedrock, for the geologicalhazards of building on carbonate bedrock, for resources such as cement and dimensionstone, and as an analog for oil-bearing reservoirs in many areas of the world. Althoughthese important geological features are well described in 2D, both on Svalbard andelsewhere, their meter-scale 3D geometry is not well determined. Furthermore, the inter-relationships between the carbonate stratigraphy, the fractures, and the solution featuresis not well understood. The northern end of Billefjorden, Dickson Land, has world-classexposures of carbonate strata well suited to such study.This is a short pilot study to determine the feasibility of future work. We integrate classicsurface-based geologic mapping with ground-penetrating radar (GPR) and resistivitytechniques. Thus we expect to image the subsurface continuation of features we can seeon the cliff sides and mountaintops. For this reason we plan to focus on the sides andtops of "Gisafjellet" and "Wordiakammen", on the east side of Petuniabukta. The steepsides and gently-sloping tops of these features are well suited to our geophysical imaging.Furthermore, both the structure and stratigraphy of these carbonate rock exposures havebeen studied previously, although the relationship of the structure (faults, joints) to thestratigraphy (especially karst dissolution features) was not a focus.

The aim is a better understanding of the impact of contemporary climatic change(posterior to Little Ice Age) on plant dynamics and the morphodynamic processes activeat the glacial margins in polar environments. The selected research field is constituted ofthe Brøgger Peninsula, where erosion assessments will be evaluated for variousprocesses (frost weathering, runoff, biological weathering, …).In 2004, we continue, withmore precisions, and comparisons, our field research started in 2002. First, we want toproduce cartography of plant colonisation and field erosion with very precise scale usingGPS and aerial photography. We selected field areas, like Engelsbukta, because thissection gives us till deposits and Holocene marine shorelines. So we have a chronologicalsequence to compare rates of plant colonisation and erosion. We have good results forthe last century and we hope to compare with oldest deposits. On the other hand, wecontinue our investigation about the third goal, rates of erosion of cold processes andweathering. We use Grant Squirell 1022 to have very precise thermic datas like in 2002for erratic limestone. We use also a Schmidt hammer to know rates of weathering onslope that know paraglacial evolution since the end of glacial period.

University of Greenwich, England - geotectonic interpretation of revealed palaeomagneticdata.
The aim of the project is to provide new palaeomagnetic data that would help to elucidatea Palaeozoic and an early Mesozoic geotectonic evolution of the southern Svalbard. Thequestions concerning the spatial relations among terranes of Svalbard during the earlyPalaeozoic, relative movements of the archipelago formations with respect to the mainneighbouring continents, as well as contribution of different tectonic events on present-day geometry of fold structures may be resolved by palaeomagnetic method. A basis ofthe method is analysis of the natural remanent magnetization (NRM), which is presentand detectable in almost all rock types. Acquired in the ambient geomagnetic field, NRMconserves its orientation within the rock and testifies later movements of the hostformation with respect to the geomagnetic axis. A significant advantage of thepalaeomagnetic method stems from the fact that it offers a quantitative resolution forrelative movements of crustal blocks. Also, it enables us to put an independent timeconstraints on age of fold structures, brittle tectonics, fluid migration and orientation of theprincipal stress axes, conclusions that can hardly be made by other methods in absenceof superposition evidence.
The main problems to be addressed and resolved by this project can be specifiedas follows:A. Early Palaeozoic palaeogeography of the Hornsund Terrane will be resolved.B. Hypothesis on the independent drift of Svalbard composite terrane with respect toBaltica will be tested and verified.C. Age of selected fold structures will be determined palaeomagnetically andsubsequently confronted with current tectonic models.D. Fissure fills of unknown age will be palaeomagnetically dated and the upper age limitfor the related fracturing process will be resolved.E. Palaeo-stress pattern will be identified and its evolution described.This year activity:- continuation of laboratory investigation of the Palaeozoic rocks collected in the Horn
In order to test the viability of this project reconnaissance palaeomagnetic studies werecarried out over Hornsund area in1999/2000 (during XXII Institute of Geophysics Polish Academy of Sciences yearexpedition to Hornsund). Using modern superconducting magnetometer (SQUID) andcleaning devices of the palaeomagnetic lab at our host Institute of Geophysics, we wereable to determine NRM components in Cambrian to Triassic rocks with a resolutionmeeting advanced requirements. Notably, we have demonstrated, for example, that theCambrian and Ordovician successions possess identifiable NRM components, recordedin magnetite. This promising finding triggered a new expedition in the year 2002 (duringXXIV Institute of Geophysics Polish Academy of Sciences year expedition to Hornsund)during which ca. 200 samples from the Palaeozoic formations were collected. Theprimary results of demagnetisation of the part of collected samples - Carboniferous

Geo Kart-Geological mapping of Svalbard
The project is carried out in the frame of the geological mapping program for Svalbard(GEOKART), and results will be crucial for the compilation of geological maps. Theproject comprises sedimentological and stratigraphical studies on theCarboniferous/Permian rock formations exposed in NE Spitsbergen (Ny Friesland, Olav VLand) and SW Nordaustlandet (Gustav Adolf Land).Investigations will focus on different lithostratigraphical units of the Billefjorden ,Gipsdalen and Tempelfjorden groups. Based on the interpretation of sedimentarystructures, lithology, microfacies, geochemical analyses and relative age determinations,depositional processes and paleoenvironments will be reconstructed.During field season 2004 detailed geological mapping will be carried out in NESpitsbergen (Lomfjorden peninsula and southern areas encircled by Lomfjorden,Veteranen, Kvitbreen and Hinlopenbreen). Within the investigation area, a number oflithological sections will be logged and sampled for laboratory investigations in differenttype localities.

HiTIES measures emissions from oxygen and nitrogen simultaneously with the hydrogenH-beta line. A study of the O+ multiplet at 4639-4696 Å in proton and electron aurora hasbeen carried out. This multiplet is blended with the N2+ 1N(1,3) band, which is animportant auroral diagnostic emission. A statistical study showed that the brightness ofthe O+ multiplet in electron aurora is on average 10% of N2+ 1N(0,2) band. The emissioncross-section of the multiplet has been estimated. Case studies using the ESR datareveal the dependence of the relative brightness of the oxygen lines on the energies ofprecipitating electrons. In the studied case it was found that rayed aurora has a significantlow energy population, resulting in a flat E-layer ionisation profile and enhanced O+ lines.In a separate case study it has been found that in proton aurora the oxygen multiplet isstrongly enhanced.
Measurements of the Doppler shifted Hbeta line, combined with modelling of the auroralionosphere have resulted ina much better understanding of the role of proton precipitation over Svalbard. Data fromthe IMAGE satellite, which measures theeffects of proton precipitation from space in the UV Lyman alpha emission have beencombined with particle data from FAST as input to modelling. Other instruments on thefacility are an imaging camera and two photometers. These optical data are used inconjunction with EISCAT Svalbard Radar data.1. Lanchester, B. S., M. Galand, S. C.

The seismological vbb-station KBS (very broad band station) at Ny Ålesund is operatingsince November 1994 and replaces the former WWSSN station operated by the Instituteof Solid Earth Physics, University Bergen. With ist modern data acquisition system(Quanterra system, 6-channels) and two sets oh high perfomance broad band and longperiod seismometers (Streckeisen STS-1 and STS-2 seismometers) the station KBSmeets all requirements of a modern seismological station. KBS is intgrated into theinternational Global Seismological Network (GSN) and is also part of the NorwegianSeismological Network. Because of Svalbards isolated location this station is an importantcontribution to the GSN network by filling a rather large gap in the arctic region. Themain task of this station is monitoring the seismic activity on a global scale. Specialresearch interests focus on regional seismicity at and around Svalbard and along theridges in the artic ocean. KBS is an open station, e.g., any interested scientist andinternational organization is allowed to retrieve data of special interest. Data are routinelyprocessed and stored at the IRIS Data Management Center in Seattle and copies areavailable at the Geoforschungszentrum Potsdam (GFZ). The National EarthquakeInformation Center (NEIC), USA, frequently refers to KBS recordings for thedetermination of hypocenter parameters of global earthquakes. Data for processing areretrieved automatically via telephone line by this organization. KBS data are also includedinto the seismological processing routines of the Norwegion Seismological Network,operated by the University Bergen. Therefore these data contribute also to the monitoringof the seismic activity in Scandinavia and the adjacent arctic regions.
Onset and phase redings and other parameters of KBS recordings are listed in theo bulletins of the IRIS Data Mangement Center, Seattleo bulletins of the Norwegian Seismological Network, University BergenNo special publications using only KBS data are known until now

The active layer, the annually freezing and thawing upper ground in permafrost areas, isof pivotal importance. The moisture and heat transfer characteristics of this layer alsodetermine the boundary layer interactions of the underlying permafrost and theatmosphere and are therefore important parameters input for geothermal or climatemodeling. Finally, changes in the characteristics of the permafrost and permafrost relatedprocesses may be used as indicators of global ecological change provided the systempermafrost-active layer-atmosphere is understood sufficiently well.The dynamics of permafrost soils is measured with high accuracy and high temporalresolution at our two sites close to Ny-Ålesund. Using these continuous data we quantifyenergy balance components and deduce heat transfer processes such as conductiveheat flux, generation of heat from phase transitions, and migration of water vapor.During the summer/fall 2004, the station will be maintained and sensors will beadded/replaced.
Continuous high resolution data on soil temperature and liquid water content from a areused to quantify thermal processes in a non sorted circle site close to Ny-Ålesund (Rothand Boike, 2001). It was found that a thicker layer of snow greatly reduced the heatexchange of the permafrost soil with the atmosphere. Soil cooling was about twice aspronounced during the winter of 2000where the snow cover was about half as thick (about 0.4 m). The melting of the snowcover and possible infiltration of snow meltwater and/or temperature induced vapor fluxtowards colder layers warmed the permafrost soil at this site down to depths of 0.9 m.An energy balance model was applied to estimate atmospheric, ground heat and snowheat fluxes for snow-covered periods from autumn 1998 to winter 2000. Sensible heatand rain is primarily responsible for winter ablation of snow, while net radiation wasprimarily responsible for ablation during the spring. The ground heat flux is an importantenergy sink during spring melt, using between 30 to 50 % of total available energy.

Ground-based FTIR-observations are performed as part of the long-term observationswithin the NDSC. The measurements are performed half automatically by the NDSC-engineer at the station. Spectra are recorded typically once or twice per week. Theanalysis of the spectra is performed at the University of Bremen and at AWI. In 2003 it isplanned to study the long-term trend of a few tropospheric trace gases, like CO, HCN orC2H6.
The observations are performed regularly since 1992. The analysis of the total columnshas been performed up to now at AWI. In 2002 our main focus was to study the long-termtrend of chlorine species in the stratosphere, HCl and ClONO2. Furthermore, we studiedthe trend of the main sulphur containing species COS.T.

The aim of the project is to develop a cost-effective long-term European observationsystem for halocarbons and to predict and assess impacts of the halocarbons on theclimate and on the ozone layer. In 2003 we will concentrate on measurements andanalysis of three CFC's, CFC-11, CFC-12 and CFC-22. This requires considering theinterfering gases, mainly water, in the correct way. The spectra are recorded within theNDSC activities by the NDSC-engineer at the station typically once per week.
In 2002 the measurements were performed on a continuous basis. Up the now, the long-term trend of CFC-12 and CFC-22 since 1995 until present have been studied. Currently,we are concentrating on improvements in the measurement techniques for the CFC's andSF6. In the analysis we concentrated on the study of the seasonal and long-termvariability of SF6

Work on Svalbard will be part of the Polarstern Expedition ARK XX/2 aiming foroceanographic, petrologic, bathymetric and geological work in Fram Strait and north ofSvalbard. Measuring the Sea Ice thickness using a helicopter borne induction device(EM-bird) will be a main goal of the cruise. For sea ice thickness accuracy and systemenhancements it is of great benefit to land the EM-bird on a Glacier within helicopterrange from the ship for half a day once or twice during the expedition. Measuring on thesurface of a glacier provides the unique opportunity to study the technical drift of thesystem far away of any electrical conductor, as glaciers are almost perfect resistors.
Polarstern will be west of Prins Karls Forland in the second half of July, making it suitableto fly the EM-bird to the Murraybreen at ca. 78°43' N, 10° 55'W. Due to bad weather thetarget area could be shifted to Albert I Land in August, as Polarstern will be operatingnorth of Svalbard then. We won't take samples or do any drillings but only land thesystem on a remote place and keep it there for some hours. As a ground crew is neededto land the bird, the operation will involve 2 helicopters. One aircraft with the ground crewlands first and helps the pilot of the second helicopter to land the bird. Once the system ison the ground, the Helicopters are not needed until flying back to the ship.
The suggested position is not compulsory and can be changed to any other location on aglacier at least 300 m thick.
This type of investigation has never been published or carried out so far. A comparabletrial experiment was conducted by Pfaffling and Bishop in Antarctica last October andyielded very promising results.System Drift is however a key problem in Helicopter EM work.Deszcz-Pan, M., Fittermann, D.

The investigation is dedicated to the study of the upper atmosphere dynamics in the polarcap, a region where there are a direct influence of the solar particles on the Earth'satmosphere. The dynamics is observed by means of an interferometer. The instrumentstarted its measurements in November 2002. The instrument is placed in a shelter at theAuroral Optical station, and it is operated from Observatoire de Haute Provence (France).We experienced some technical problems which lead to organize a mission by atechnician after a remote investigation and some help received locally. These problemshave been solved.
An important fact is the local meteorological conditions of observations. Cloudy sky isfrequent, and is a limitation to our scientific return. However, on 28 October a very largeCoronal Mass Ejection occurred. When the particles arrived in the upper atmosphere byNovember 30, the conditions of measurements above Svalbard were acceptable, and wehave observed the dramatic effect of the particles on the line intensity and wind velocity inthe thermosphere. For the latter, the speed was increased up to 500 m/s, the zonalcomponent being more perturbated than the meridional component, this effect being stillpersistent one day after the particles arrival.These results have been reported at the European Geosciences Union (Nice, April,2004).

Size-fractionated atmospheric aerosols are continuously collected at the Zeppelinmountain station in Ny-Ålesund, Spitsbergen. The sampling device used consists of amodified Sierra-Andersen Hi-Vol cascade impactor, which separates the aerosol into acoarse and a fine size fraction. The collections are performed according to a 2-2-3-dayschedule. The samples are analyzed for sulphate, methane sulphonate (MSA), andseveral other anionic and cationic species. The data sets are examined with receptormodels and/or related to air mass trajectories in order to identify the major source regionsof the various species, to evaluate the impact of each region, and to assess the extent ofthe anthropogenic perturbation.
The atmospheric concentration data (in the <2.5 micrometer size fraction) for the 10-yearperiod from 1991 through 2000 were examined. The anthropogenic elements As and Sbexhibited a clear seasonal cycle, with much lower levels during summer than duringwinter/early spring. For As, the summer levels were about 50 times lower than thewinter/early spring levels, whereas for Sb they were about 30 times lower. Also non-sea-salt Br showed a clear seasonal cycle. The highest levels were observed in the periodfrom March to mid-May, the lowest values in the period July through October, and thedifference between both periods was about a factor of 20. Se and I exhibited much lessvariability, but also these two elements showed clear seasonal cycles, with for Se higherlevels in winter/early spring than in summer. Iodine, on the other hand, had maxima inspring (March-April) and in fall (October). Natural sources, especially marine biogenicsources, are most likely quite important for both elements. Non-sea-salt (nss) sulphatewas lower during summer than during the rest of the year, but the summer/winterdifference remained limited to about a factor of 10. Methanesulphonic acid, a gas-to-particle conversion product of dimethylsulphide from marine phytoplankton, was very lowduring winter, increased steadily between day 100 and day 120 of the year, and remainedhigh during the entire summer. The contributions from marine biogenic and fromanthropogenic sources to the fine nss-sulphate during summer (June-July-August) wereestimated: 38% of the fine nss-sulfate in summer was on average attributed to the marinebiogenic source, but that attribution was around 50% for 1991 and 1994, versus only 20%for 1993 and 1998. The 10-year data set for the <2.5 micrometer size fraction was alsosubjected to principal component analysis (PCA) in order to examine the interrelationsbetween the various chemical species and elements and to identify the major aerosolcomponents (source types

This program is a part of a large program with Italian, German, American, Norwegian,Canadian teams.
The field annual scientific programme will be organised with four experimental studies :1-Study of mercury dynamic in the snowpack taking into account the previous resultsobtained in Station Nord in 2002.
2- Studies under simulated conditions chemistry and photochemistry of Hg in thesnowpack.
3-Atmospheric particulate mercury speciation. A way to better understand depositionfluxes of Hg to the snow pack.4-Air/snow/firn/ice transfer fonction determinatio.
The study of mercury dynamic in the seasonal snow pack has started for our group in1998. The first studies were devoted to the speciation of mercury in Alpine snow, wherewe showed that reactive mercury was probably photoreduced in the snow. After thesestudies in Alpine snow, we started an important research program with the French PolarInstitute (IPEV) for the study of mercury speciation in the air above snow, in the air ofsnow, and in snow. Two important field campaigns have been organised in the Arctic, onein Station Nord, Greenland from February to March 2002 shortly after polar sunrise andApril in Kuujjuarapik, Quebec. During these field campaigns:* A new device dedicated to Hg° measurement in the air of snow has been build. * Weobserved both in Greenland and Quebec an exponential decrease of Hg° in the air ofsnow anti-correlated with an increase of total Hg in snow, indicating an oxidativechemistry involving halogenated compounds. * We observed a production of Hg° in theair of the snow pack directly linked with photochemical activity and production ofphotochemical species in the air of snow like HOO, Br, and BrO radicals. The aim of this2003 campaign is to go deeper in these mechanisms so as to better understand this veryactive chemistry for that metal. References:Dommergue A., Ferrari C.P., Boutron C.F.

The objective of this investigation is to study substances that affect the climate, and in thiscase it concerns carbon dioxide and atmospheric aerosols over Spitsbergen (Svalbard).The observations aim towards:
· detecting any long-term trends in the carbon dioxide level, as well as any trends in theamount or composition of aerosols in the background atmosphere.· provide a basis to study processes that control the aerosol life cycle from their formationthrough aging and transformation, until being removed from the atmosphere.· provide a basis to study the processes (sources, sinks, and transport pathways) thatcontrol the level of CO2 in the atmosphere.· contribute to the global network of stations that perform continuous measurements ofatmospheric particles and trace gases to determine their effect on the Earths radiationbalance and interaction with clouds and climate.
Measurement of carbon dioxide is an ongoing activity on the Zeppelinstation since 1998.Between 1998 and March 2003 the mean rate of increase has been 1.2 ppm per year andthe annual amplitude (between summer minimum and winter maximum) is 17.7 ppm.Aerosol particles also present a marked annual cycle. The late winter and spring period isstrongly influenced by anthropogenic sources in Europe and North America. The summerperiod shows small total particle masses, but is the period with the highest numberdensities that often exceeds many thousand particles per cubic centimeter. During late falland early winter the aerosol is aged and number densities are often below 100 cm-3.Ström, J., Umegård, J., Tørseth, K., Tunved, P., Hansson, H.-C., Holmén, K., Wismann,V., Herber, A. and König-Langlo, G., One year of particle size distribution and aerosolchemical composition measurements at the Zeppelin Station, Svalbard, March 2000-March 2001, J.

Auroral observations from Svalbard islands with "ITACA"
Developed in the frame of the Space Physics research, the project aims to monitor andstudy the high-latitude auroral activity, focusing on the dayside auroras, by means of twoall-sky cameras located in Ny-Ålesund (Svalbard) and Daneborg (East coast ofGreenland).The data acquisition period ranges from the mid-October to the end of March. Usually, aweek for maintenance purpose is planned in Ny-Ålesund, at the beginning of theobservational period (3rd or 4th week of October).
In 2002, the second ITACA² station was set up in Greenland, while a new all-sky camerawas installed in the station of Ny-Ålesund. During the present winter season, for the firsttime, were achieved conjugated optical auroral observation from the two ITACA² stationsand a preliminary analysis is in progress.- Orsini S., K.

The project seeks to investigate the nature of perennial spring s at high latitudes and tounderstand their interaction with permafrost. The research on Svalbard will complementprevious research that my team and I have been conducting on springs on Axel HeibergIsland in the Canadian High Arctic. The 2004 activities will consist on photographing thespring outlets, collecting surface water samples (approx. 1.5 litres), and taking small (100g) samples of surface travertine deposits around the spring outlets, where they exist.
First year.

The Kaffiøyra region (Oscar II Land) is a traditional study area of polar expeditionsorganized by the Institute of Geography. Since 1975, 17 expeditions have beenorganized. The amount of publications is about 300. During 2001 we are planning:Continuation of the mass balance measurements, its include the winter balance, summerbalance and net balance; the outflow from glaciers of the Kaffiøyra and selected theecology problems of this region.
The Waldemarbreen is located in the Oscar II Land, northwestern Spitsbergen. It is of thealpine type and flows down a valley to the Kaffiøyra. With the area of 2.68 km2, theWaldemarbreen occupies 61% of a catchment basin closed by ice-cored moraines at thewater gap. The firn field occurs at 380-490 m a.s.l. and the snout at 130 m a.s.l. Theglacier is composed of two parts, separated by a median moraine, 1600 m long. Theforeland occupies 0.44 km2. The Kaffiøyra region together with the adjacent glaciers theAavatsmark (75 km2), and the Dahl (132 km2) and six glaciers running off in its direction(28 km2) cover the area of 310 km2. Mountain ranges, valley glaciers and their marginalzones together with the Kaffiøyra Plain cover 103 km2. Since the nineteenth century thesurface of the Kaffiøyra glaciers has decreased by approximately 30%. TheWaldemarbreen has been retreating intensively lately and the glacier surface has beenlowered at 1% every year. Annual mean air temperature of this area is about 4.6 °C.Detailed investigations into the glacier mass balance have been conducted since 1995.

The project "Parameterisation of snow and ice albedo in ECHAM5 GCM" is a cooperationproject between Norwegian Polar Institute, University of Tromsø, Max Planck Institute forMeteorology in Hamburg, NASA Goddard Space Flight Center in Maryland, ArcticAntarctic Research Institute in St. Petersburg, Swiss Federal Institute of Tecnology (ETH)in Zürich, The Norwegian Meteorological Institute and Norwegian Computing Centre.
NORKLIMA
Snow and ice albedo is known to be crucial for heat exchange at high latitudes. Even so,the way snow and ice albedo is parameterised in GCMs today is strongly simplified. Bydeveloping characteristic spectral albedo curves for different snow and sea-ice surfaces,and combine this with ground truth and satellite data, we want to improve the albedoparameterisation, by introducing spectral resolution and developing more realistic decayfunctions.This year activity includes the collection of data, the intercomparison of already existingmodels, and the validation of the best model. The work consists of two parts, one dealingwith snow on ground and the other with sea ice. The collected time series data over snowcovered surfaces include a 20 year time series from Ny-Ålesund, Svalbard, three years ofdata from Col de Porte, French Alps, six years of data from six stations in the FormerSoviet and 12 years of data from Barrow, Alaska. The sea-ice part is covered by datafrom the Russian Drifting Ice stations in the Arctic Ocean, and the high quality one yeardata from the SHEBA experiment, also in the Arctic Ocean. Snow and sea-ice albedoparameterisations from 8 different global climate models are compared and validatedagainst these datasets. The models include ECHAM5, UKMO, ECMWF, CLASS, ISAB,GISS, BATS and an one-dimensional thermodynamic sea-ice model by Ebert and Curry,1993. For comparison a completely data-based regression model is built and comparedto the parameterisations in the global climate models.Albedo and reflectance data with spectral resolution is also collected, and this includesseveral datasets from the Svalbard area, data from the SHEBA experiment and also datafrom the Alps and Antarctic. This data will be used to develop characteristic spectralreflectance curves for each key cryospheric surface. For snow we want to develop onecurve for each of the classes defined by the International Classification of Seasonal Snowon the Ground by Colbeck
This years activity included the collection of data, the intercomparison of already existingmodels, and the validation of the best model. Snow and sea-ice albedo parameterisationsfrom 8 different global climate models and a completely databased linear regressionmodel are compared and validated against these datasets. We found that the iterativeschemes worked best for the snow albedo parametrisation. The snow cover fractionparametrisation and the threshold for re-setting the snow albedo to its new-snow valuealso play an important role. The work that still needs to be done is to look at the problemsat a larger scale; the mixed pixel problem, and to include snow cover- and forest fraction.It also seems necessary to include contamination since pollution decrease the albedosubstantially.However, for the sea ice albedo parameterisation it is different. The schemes that existstoday for sea-ice is clearly too simple, and a more advanced sea-ice parameterisation

In 2003 the aim of the project is to study the seasonal variability of the radiative propertiesof tropospheric aerosols using FTIR emission spectroscopy. Furthermore, the heightdistribution of aerosols and their composition will be investigated. During intensecampaigns the observations are performed by the project scientist. For the rest of theyear the spectra are recorded within the NDSC activities by the NDSC-engineer at thestation typically once per month.
The measurements in 2002 were performed on a regular basis. The analysis wasperformed by a dedicated radiative transfer model from the Free University of Berlin. In2002 we concentrated on the comparison of observations from the Arctic with similarobservations from the Antarctica.C. Rathke, J. Notholt, J. Fischer, A.
