The project NPI-supervisor : j. kohler,The project AARI-supervisor : M.V. Tretyakov,Grantee: I.Yu. Solovyanova
AARI/NPI “Fram” Arctic climate studies laboratory (FAL)
Project purpose is the reconstruction of annual runoff values of river basins of Grønfjord (West Spitsbergen) with use of rivers – analogues method.
Available data
Daily runoff:
Bayelva River (1989-2003)
De Geer River (1991-2003)
Fragmentary daily runoff:
Aldegonda River (2002-2004)
Grøn River (2003-2004)

Runoff reconstruction was made:
according empirical formulas:
А = (Тs + 9.5)3 (1)А = (Тs + 8.7)3 (2)А=(Тs + 7,9)3 (3)А =((Тs + 9.5)2/2) (4)А = 17 + 3,87Т (5)
using rivers-analogues:
•To find out the correct river-analogue, for our research objects•To calculate within year distribution in rivers-analogues•To find out the best relation between runoff in river-analogue and research river

Conclusions
• The reconstruction of river runoff was made but we need more measured data to obtain best results of reconstruction
• By the results of the dye-tracing experiments were obtained some data of the englacial and subglacial Aldegonda glacier drainage systems
• The radioechosounding gives sometimes not the true situation inside the glaciers
Future tasks
• To find out is there any water piracy…
• How internal drainage system of the glaciers can influence into the river runoff?
• How big difference between river runoff from cold-based and politermal glaciers?
