This study presents the results of benthic foraminiferal analyses of a marine core record from about 100 m water depth in the fjord environment of Isvika bay, Nordaustlandet, Svalbard. These results contribute to the understanding of environmental
in the Atlantic water inflow to the northern Svalbard shelf and to the fjord via Hinlopenstretet.

This study presents an automated or so-called objective circulation pattern classification for the region of the Svalbard archipelago on the basis of gridded NCEP/NCAR-reanalysis data. Self-organizing maps were set up. After evaluating the results
The Lower Palaeozoic stratigraphy of the Kap Sparre Formation of Kulling (Hecla Hoek Succession) from Murchisonfjorden and eastern Nordaustlandet of Svalbard is described based on new field observations in the region. Additions to the previous

The AA. combined ground-based pulsed radar data collected in 2008–2009 with airborne radio-echo sounding data acquired in 1983 and 1986 over Vestfonna ice cap, Svalbard. The airborne dataset mainly covers the fast-flowing outlet glaciers

The AA. utilize a 34-year record (1976 to 2010) of multi-spectral satellite data to extract glacier frontal positions of major outlet glaciers of the ice cap Vestfonna, in northeastern Svalbard. They interpret the results in the context of elevation
Spatial and temporal variability of net accumulation from shallow cores from Vestfonna ice cap (Nordaustlandet, Svalbard)

The AA. analyse ice cores from Vestfonna ice cap (Nordaustlandet, Svalbard). Density profiles and oxygen isotopic measurements were made on 3 firn cores from the 2 highest summits of the glacier located on the SW–NE and NW–SE central ridges
