Nutrients analysis
The ArcticSGD project investigates all aspects of submarine groundwater discharge (SGD), as an essential component of biogeochemical budgets. Fresh SGD is a source of new nutrients, and the study of nutrients helps to understand nutrient cycles (recycled nutrients...
Lofoten-Vesterålen cruise
We are prepared for our second cruise in the Lofoten-Vesterålen with RV “G.O. Sars” that is owned by the Institute of Marine Research (IMR) in Bergen. We will start on 29th of November. We are planning to collect column water from ROV and rosette, sediments and pore...
GasBench tests
GasBench II, which is universal on-line gas preparation and introduction system. The combination of GasBench interface and Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry is a promising method for the δ15N analysis of samples containing trace amounts of nitrogen. Some time ago we...
Sediment core subsampling
Sediment core subsampling was done by PhD student Reza Saghravani, Principal Investigator of ArcticSGD project Dr. Beata Szymczycha and Dr. Eng. Magdalena Diak. Core were cut every 10 cm. Dr. Aleksandra Winogradow centrifuges the sediment to extract pore water from...
RAD7 Radon Detector
RAD7 Radon Detector - Real-time Continuous Radon Monitor with Spectral Analysis – is our new purchase. This equipment will be used for 222Rn measurements to trace submarine groundwater discharge. RAD7 was financed by the Norwegian Financial Mechanism 2014–2021 (85%)...
Dr. Wei-Li Hong’s publications
We would like to proudly announce and congratulate Dr. Wei-Li Hong, one of the ArcticSGD Polish-Norwegian Research Project collaborators just published an article in the Nature Communications journals. Great job! https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-021-26549-5
Study area (Arex’21)
The study areas were located in the Kongsfjord – Krossfjord, Isfjorden and Norwegian Fjords. Our research contribute to fulfill existing gaps in the knowledge in the Arctic hydrology. We have tremendous problem due lack of enough information about the at least basic...
Measurements of samples collected during Arex’21 cruise
Measurements of DIC and Total Alkalinity samples, which were collected during AREX’21 in Spitsbergen (Svalbard) are carried out. DIC samples are analyzed using DIC analyzer (ApolloSciTech ™) and Trace Gas Analyzer (LI-COR ™) and Total alkalinity using Dosimat plus...
Pore water sampling
During our AREX’21 cruise in Arctic we collected also pore water for different parameters DIC, DOC, total alkalinity, metals, nutrients and chloride. Samples were also collected on the land expeditions by push-point lance. Obtained results for pore water profiles can...
Water column sampling (Arex’21)
During our AREX’21 cruise in the Arctic we collected water samples from the required depths in a water column for different parameters like DIC, DOC, total alkalinity, metals, nutrients, water isotopes and chloride. We observed interesting chemical profile. Fot. Reza...
