Sampling of PM10 aerosol using a cascade impactor to define the chemical composition in six different size stages. The quartz filters were extracted with ultrapure water and water soluble species were determined: major ions, MSA, carboxylic acids, amino acids, sugars, phenolic compounds, and other organic water-soluble emergening pollutants.

Measurements are obtained using a Pyrgeometer Kipp&Zonen, model CGR4, installed at Thule Air Base (220 m a.s.l.) in May 2013. The instrument sensitivity was determined during factory calibration for temperatures down to -40 °C, thus specifically suited for the polar environment. Data are acquired by a datalogger at 30 s time intervals and then transferred to a PC. The CGR4 and its dedicated PC are maintained by Daniela Meloni at ENEA.

This proposal will focus, by means of a multidisciplinary and well-balanced consortium on eutrophication, contaminants, marine litter and underwater noise descriptors of the MSFD. vertical acquisition in 18 CTD station in Kongsfjorden with water sampling at 2-3 depths (surface, intermediate, bottom)for nutrient and pH analyses of sampled water in the lab. parameters: Pressure, Strain Gauge [db]rnTemperature [IPTS-68, deg C]rnConductivity [mS/cm]rnpHrnOxygen, SBE 43 [ml/l]rnTurbidity, Turner Cyclops [NTU] Pressure, Strain Gauge [db]rnTemperature [IPTS-68, deg C]rnConductivity [mS/cm]rnpHrnOxygen, SBE 43 [ml/l]rnTurbidity, Turner Cyclops [NTU]

DOC fractionation: dynamic of POPs and trace metals Arctic DOC (ArcticDOC) The sampling design is projected to cover almost five sampling points in the Kongsfjorden. The sampling of surface water (approximately 100 liters for each sampling point) and sediment are aimed at the determination of persistent and emerging contaminants: POPs PFAS, CUPs, PPCPs, endocrine disruptors such as nonylphenols and bisphenol A. At the same time, with tangential-flow ultrafiltration, dissolved organic matter (DOM) will be characterized according to size fractions (colloidal and truly dissolved) and the distribution of contaminants associated to these fractions will be evaluated.

Ionospheric Scintillations Arctic Campaign Coordinated Observations (ISACCO) The aim of ISACCO is to perform a scintillation measurements campaign by a GNSS Ionospheric Scintillation and TEC Monito) at Ny-Ålesund and Longyearbyen (Svalbard, Norway). The System consists of dual-frequency receiver with special firmware specifically configured to measure amplitude and phase scintillation. Starting from the end of 2015 a Septentrio PolaRxS_PRO receiver has been installed in one of the two observation sites in Svalbard, NyÅlesund, for the observation of all the available satellite constellations GALILEO, GPS, GLONASS at the Svalbard longitude.

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).

Temperature, electrical conductivity, hydrometric level measured in piezometers located near CCT (Ny-Alesund). The data were generated thanks to the following funding sources: ICEtoFLUX (2022 to 2025) and UNDER (2025).

Climate-Cryosphere-Carbon interactions in Kongsfjorden, Svalbard (C3) Use sediment cores as archives of climate-induced destabilizations in the fjord. By targeting well known past climate changes (MWP and LIA) we will understand how the C3 system varied during natural warming and cooling events. Retrieve of two sediment cores in Kongsfjorden, in summer 2017, to encompass the last 1k years.
