| Sea ice in Isfjord | 25 July 2011 12:16 | 
|  | |
| Maarten is returning home, Dagmar, Elspeth and Suzanne stay behind in Ny-Ålesund. Just before the plane lands in Longyearbyen, there appears a massive amount of ice in Isfjord, blocking access of boats to Longyearbyen. It is sea ice, originating from Storfjorden and drifting since break-up around the southern tip of Spitsbergen to the north. The ice is more than a meter thick. Top: picture from the plane. Bottom: view from the depparture hall on the airport. | |
