Since 2020, snow samples have been taken from the Ariebreen glacier several times a season during the accumulation season. The snow samples are collected in polyethylene sterile bags and transported to the Polish Polar Station Hornsund. After melting at room temperature, they are analysed in the chemical laboratory of the Polish Polar Station for pH, conductivity and chemical composition (major ions). Site Information Ariebreen - 0.5 km long glacier between Skoddefjellet and the northern part of Ariekammen, southernmost in Wedel Jarlsberg Land. Presented data from 2020 to 2022 The data has not been checked, which means that it is raw data. Principal investigator (PI) Adam Nawrot The data presented were collected as part of the environmental monitoring programme conducted by the Polish Polar Station Hornsund (Spitsbergen) and the Institute of Geophysics of the Polish Academy of Sciences.
