This is chapter 4 of the State of Environmental Science in Svalbard (SESS) report 2022. Many characteristics of atmospheric air are measured in Svalbard, including levels of chemical pollution, dark dust connected to soot, and living organisms, but most of these studies happen in Ny-Ålesund. Air mon...
