The dataset consist of 42 water column profiles of pressure, temperature, salinity, fluorescence and turbidity located within the Kongsfjorden at Platform: MS Teisten - Kings Bay AS

Aerosol sampling by a High-Volume Sampler (TECORA eco-highvol equipped with digital PM1 sampling inlet, nominal flow 500 lpm) for the collection of ambient aerosol particles with aerodynamic diameter < 1 μm (PM1) on pre-washed and pre-baked quartz-fiber filters (PALL, Ø= 18cm). Sampling time: 3-4 days per sample. A multi-technique analytical approach for the characterization of the sampled organic aerosol: Organic matter (OM) and Organic Nitrogen (ON). Analytical techniques employed are based on nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) and Aerosol Mass Spectrometry (HR-TOF-AMS applied off-line) for the OM characterization, C and N elemental analysis (CN-EA) and ion chromatography (IC) for inorganic ions and alkyl-amines. -NMR functional groups (Aromatics, anomeric/vynilic, H-C-O, H-C-C=, H.C) -NMR tracers: Levoglucosan, Methane-sulphonic acid (MSA), Hydroxymethane-sulphonic acid (HMSA), Amines (mono-, di- and tri-methyl amines, etc.) -HR-TOF-AMS (off-line): main species (Org, SO4, NO3, NH4, Chl), elemental ratios (OM:OC, O:C, H:C) & tracer fragments (m/z43, 44, 60 etc.) -NMR & AMS OA source apportionment

Monitoring of Aerosol: Short and Long range source areas related to Climate Change (MAShLoCC) During the Arctic campaign 2010, an atmospheric aerosol sampling at the Gruvebadet observatory has been carried out in order to obtain information about the formation and composition of atmospheric aerosol, transport processes toward the Arctic zone as well as local and remote source areas. Instrument : ICP-SFMS, IRMS, Orbitrap

Observing earth critical zone processes in the bayelva basin (CZO@Bayelva) The dataset includes CO2 fluxes measurements during summer period in different area along the transect from CCT to Ny-Alesund airport. The measures are performed using a portable accumulation chamber in dark (Ecosystem respiration, ER) and light (Net Ecosystem Exchange) condition. For each plot, about 20 measures are performed, including soil temperature and volumetric soil water content. CO2/H2O daily average values and standard deviation. Each measurement day contains a number of half-hour measurements.

Observing earth critical zone processes in the bayelva basin (CZO@Bayelva) Data represents the average values and the corresponding standard deviation obtained from each plots at different site along the transect CCT-airport. Each average value is obtained as a mean over a set of more than 20 point measures for each plot and each sampling date. Flux data are complemented by measurements of soil temperature and volumetric water content. data obtain using accumulation chamber and portable probe.

Aerosol Flux in Arctic (ALFA) Evaluate aerosol dry deposition/emission in the Arctic on icy/snowy surface and its dependence on particle size and micrometeorological parameters. The measures of the particles exchange rate will be carried out with the technique of eddy-correlation at Ny Alesund in size-segregated mode (2-3000 nm) coupling a sonic anemometer, a CPC and an optical particle counter (OPC) that are able to detect fluctuations of the particles concentration at high frequency (1Hz).

Atlantification of Arctic ocean is causing a sharp increase in temperature and salinity around Svalbard Islands and in Kongsfjorden. Such phenomenon and the input of sediment-rich glacial meltwater influence salinity, water column turbidity, and light penetration with ecological implications on the microbial features.
