Snow and surface characteristics are monitored by CNR at the Climate Change Tower in Ny-Alesund. Partly funded by Arctic PASSION project (agreement number 101003472).

Atmospheric Gondola for Aerosol Profiles (AGAP) The scientific goals of AGAP are to develop novel aerosol payloads and evaluate the vertical distribution of aerosol properties in the Arctic Boundary Layer. Dataset consists in Aerosol vertical profiles gridded at a 50 m spatial resolution: R, T, P, RH, Aerosol size distribution, BC concentration, O3. Maximum altitudes 1500 m.

pH tipping point in Svalbard (pHinS) The project is focused on carbonate chemistry in the fjord and measure how meltwater, icebergs and freshwater runoff affects the acidity of coastal seawater. Acquisition of CTD profiles and seawater samples at discrete depths (surface, bottom and 1-3 intermediate depths) to determine pH, total alkalinity, dissolved inorganic carbon, dissolved oxygen, nutrients, dissolved organic carbon. Collection of samples from icebergs and streams to determine the same set of parameters measured in the seawater. Some of the analysis were performed in the laboratory of the “Dirigibile Italia” Arctic station soon after the collection; others will be performed on preserved samples in ISMAR’s laboratories. 62 water column profiles of pressure, Temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, turbidity instrument: SBE19plus

ISotopic and physical-chemical MOnitoring of GLACial drainages and sea water in the Ny-Ålesund area (Svalbard) (ISMOGLAC) Sampling and in-situ measurements on snow and water, performed into both Kongsfjorden and glacial streams that originate in supraglacial, englacial and subglacial zones of different glaciers (Midtre Lovenbreen, Austre broggerbreen, Vestre Broggerbreen, Kongsvegen). Dataset concerns water isotopes signature of snow and Kongsfjorden water and physical-chemical data of the latter.

Permafrost Release Into The Marine System In A Warming Arctic (PRIMA) Data about Physical and chemical oceanography and vertical fluxes of sedimentary material from Mooring Aldo Pontremoli (MAP) and geochemical biomarker data from sediment core. Instrument: SBE56, SBE37, Sediment trap Technicap PPS 4/3, GC-MS

Aerosol Biogeochemical cycles, Sources and TRansport processes in the climate-sensitive ArCTic - ABSTRACT Dataset consists in: Aerosol load, Ion, metal, EC/OC measurements on bulk and size-segregated particulate matter at Gruvebadet Observatory (Ny Alesund - Italian Station "Dirigibile Italia") using Aerosol sampling and measurement devices (TECORA ECHO-PM, TECORA Skypost, TECORA HI-VOL, FAI PBL, TSI SMPS, TSI APS - Ion Chromatographs, ICP-AES, Thermo-Optical Analyzer, ICP-MS) Aerosol measurements and sampling. Atmospheric Particle Size Distribution. SMPS (10-500 nm) and APS (0.5-20 um). PM10 aerosol low volume sampling for determination of ions and metals: continuous 24/48h resolution samplings. Multi-stage impactor (Dekati 4-stage: < 1 um - > 10 um) for measurement of ion composition: 4-day resolution sampling. PM10 medium volume sampling for determination of metal content and Pb isotope ratios: 4-d resolution samplings. PM10 on quartz filters for determination of Elemental od Organic Carbon (EC/OC): continuous 24/48 h resolution samplings. PM10 aerosol low volume sampling on PTFE for elemental determination by PIXE technique.

Atmospheric Gondola for Aerosol Profiles (AGAP) Developing novel aerosol payloads and evaluate the vertical distribution of aerosol properties in the Arctic Boundary Layer. 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, O3. Maximum altitudes 1500 m.

EEE@NYALESUND (EEENYA) The Dataset contains flux of cosmic rays measured at different locations at Ny Alesund. Each cosmic ray event will be tagged in time using GPS. Cosmic rays data will be correlated with atmoshperic conditions, also contained in the dataset. Measurement site: Ny Alesund: 1. Dirigibile Italia Station, 2. Gruvbadet laboratory, 3. close to the Amundsen-Nobile tower

The column water vapor or Precipitable Water Vapor (PWV) is measured at Thule Air Base (76.5°N, 68.8°W), Greenland, by means of a ground-based millimeter-wave spectrometer (GBMS) installed at 220 m a.s.l. The GBMS observes rotational lines of atmospheric molecules emitting between 230 and 280 GHz, with a spectral pass band of 600 MHz. The PWV is calculated from direct measurements of atmospheric opacity (tau) at the indicated frequencies by using the linear relation PWV = a+tau*b, where a and b depend only on frequency. Measurements have a temporal resolution of 15 minutes and are carried out continuously when the GBMS is operated.

Ice Nuclei Particle Concentration (INP) Ice nucleating particle (INPs) concentration obtained in spring and summer campaigns in the Arctic Region. Sampling lines allow the aerosol particles collection onto the filters and the sampling line for the continuos measurements of size distribution with the OPC and SMPS. The aim is to improve our understanding of aerosol-cloud-climate interactions and representation of climate models.
