RIS: 3471 ARCA aims to develop a conceptual model on the mechanism(s) behind the release of large volumes of cold and fresh water from melting of ice caps, investigating this complex system from both paleoclimatic and modern air-sea-ice interaction process point of view. ARCA fits well within the Italian Strategy for Arctic. Testing and calibration of sensors measurement of vertical profile of turbulence, meteorological paramaters and characterisitic of the snow surface.

Chronobiology of polar organisms (Chronopolar) Monitoring water parameters in surface and deep (3.0 meters) using DS18B20 + rasberry-pi. Sample collection: Lepidurus arcticus.

Homogenized Tethered Balloon record at station Ny-Ålesund, Spitsbergen in 2018 The scientific goals of BC-3D are to evaluate the distribution of Black Carbon and Mineral Dust in the first layers of atmosphere and surface snow over targeted Svalbard glaciers in order to identify the mechanisms of the air/snow exchanges also assisted by model predictions to provide the full 3D picture. Aerosol vertical profiles by tethered balloon: Aerosol vertical profiles gridded at a 50 m spatial resolution: R, T, P, RH, Aerosol size distribution, BC concentration. Maximum altitudes 1500 m.
