Evaluation of Modern Sedimentation Processes in a Proglacial Lake: Linnévatnet, Spitzbergen, Svalbard
(2009-07-14)Patty studied the texture and lamination stratigraphy preserved in the sediment traps recovered from Lake Linne'. These traps were deployed from summer 2006 to summer 2007 and a few large diameter traps deployed from April ... -
Evidence for Accelerated Surface Melting Rates on the Linné Glacier, Svalbard
(2009-07-14)Heather's research focused on the factors and processes associated with glacier ablation (and surface lowering) during the 2006 ablation season -
Chronology and Correlations of High Arctic Lakes Based on Magnetic Properties
(2009-07-14)Emily recovered short cores from different locations in Lake Linne'and from Kongress in order to measure the paleo-magnetic record preserved in the sediment records. -
Mineralogical Analysis of Primary and Secondary Source Sediments to Linnévatnet, Spitsbergen, Svalbard
(2009-07-14)Lauren's project focused on discerning the sources of sediment (using geochemistry) entering Lake Linne' from the surrounding drainage basin including the main meltwater inflow, the surrounding hillslopes and reworked marine muds -
Reconstruction of a Temperature Time Series for Lin-nédalen, Svalbard
(2009-07-14)Phil studied the local record of the Linne' Valley and related it to the longer record from Isfjord Radio and the even longer record from Longyearbyen. -
Surficial Geology of the Kongressvatnet Catchment, Svalbard, Norway
(2009-07-14)Leif did detailed mapping in the water-shed surrounding Lake Kongress. He mapped the bedrock units, glacial deposits and various other landforms. He produced some very detailed and beautiful maps of the area! -
Short-term meteorological influence on High Arctic Glacier, Linnédalen, Svalbard, Norway.
(2009-07-14)Antoine's research focused on short-term meteorological changes during the summer of 2008 and their affect on the ablation of the Linne' Glacier -
Ice-marginal Delta Formation and Sedimentaty Processes of Kongsvegen Glacier in Kongsfjorden, Svalbard, Norway.
(2009-07-14)Ryan's research focussed on formation and deposition of a submarine meltwater delta in the proglacial fjord environment of Kongfjorden -
Characterization and Calibration of Lamination Stratigraphy of Cores Recovered from Lake Linné, Svalbard Norway
(2009-07-14)Emily's project focused on dating (Cs and Pb)and documenting and interpreting the lamination stratigraphy of cores recovered from Lake Linne' -
Determination of Stratiform Cloud Formation and its effects upon Glacial Ablation at Linne'breen, Svalbard for the Summer of 2005
(2009-07-14)Carlos'researched the formation of clouds over the Linne' Glacier and their roll in the overall rates of glacier ablation. -
Using Geochemical Evidence to Determine Provenance in a High Arctic Glacier-Fed Lake, Linné Valley, Svalbard, Norway
(2009-07-14)Elizabeth studied the geochemistry of the various sediment source areas in the Linne' Valley. She also attempted to reconstruct the relative contribution of these different source areas by looking at down-core data -
Unsustainable glacier ablation at 78 N latitude, Linne’breen, Svalbard
(2009-07-14)Caleb's project was to compare the glacier margin positions documented by aerial photographs and to place the observed glacier retreat in the context of measure changes in mass balance. -
Comparison of lamination stratigraphies of cores recovered from the proximal basin of Lake Linne, Svalbard, Norway
(2009-07-14)Bennett's research was directed at correlating the lamination stratigraphy of adjacent cores recovered from a proximal basin in Lake Linne'. His work showed that small changes in position and bathymetry can cause changes ... -
Snowmelt 2008 in Linnédalen
(2009-07-14)Leo used daily images from our automated camera to quantify the amount and rate of snow melt in the Linne' Valley during the spring of 2008. -
Suspended Sediment Transport in Proglacial Linne'elva, Spitsbergen
(2009-07-14)Christina's research focuses on the sediment flux of the proglacial meltwater system during the summer of 2006. She relates suspended sediment flux to river stage and discharge and weather conditions in the Linne' Valley -
The Nature of Laminations in Cores from Kongressvatnet, Svalbard, Norway
(2009-07-14)Emme studied a thin section of a core recovered from Lake Kongress in order to characterize the lamination stratigraphy. Her work suggests that the varves are chemical in nature. -
Evidence for Accelerated Surface Melting Rates on the Linne' Glacier, Svalbard
(2009-07-14)Emily studied the factors that influence glacier ablation (and surface lowering)during the 2006 melt season -
Geochemical Investigation of Weathering in a High Arctic Watershed and Provenance of Sediments in Kongressvatnet, Svalbard, Norway
(2009-07-14)Maya, researched the sediment source provenance in the Lake Kongress watershed. She then analyzed downcore sediment chemistry to determine the sources of sediment entering the lake, the origin of annually deposited sediment ... -
Mechanisms and Processes of Suspended Sediment Transport and Deposition in High Arctic Proglacial Lake Linne'vatnet, Spitsbergen, Svalbard
(2009-07-14)Ben's research was directed at better understanding how and under what conditions sediment was distributed and deposited in Lake Linne' during the 2005/2006 sedimentation year.
