Sammendrag:

The Arctic is warming almost four times faster compared to the rest of the world (Rantanen et al. 2022). Svalbard and its surroundings have warmed faster than most of the Arctic (Cai et al. 2021; Isaksen et al. 2022). The Svalbard archipelago also shows large temperature variations from south to north and east to west (Østby et al. 2017). Svalbard has good infrastructure, logistics and communications (airport, port, laboratories), and excellent possibilities for data transfer. This makes Svalbard and its surroundings an attractive living natural laboratory for long-term and campaign-based Arctic studies.
