High Arctic sedimentary processes in a distal, proglacial lake (Linnévatnet, Spitsbergen, Svalbard) were studied in July and August of 2006 to understand links between climatic controls and suspended sediment entering the lake. Linnévatnet, one of the largest lakes in Svalbard (4.7 km long, 35 m dee...
