“…The small differences in height on the flat lowland only produce weak potentials for moving ground water (Gustafeaon, 1967). Thus the possibilities of ground water with a temperature surplus being forced into the ground and maintaining a thawed zone in the permafrost (Alter, 1950) is almost negligible, and the subsurface run-off in the lower parts of the island is probably very local.…”

Surface water and precipitation samples were taken from Bjerncaya Island and analysed for various constituents. The ion contents of the waters are related to the different kinds of rock found in this area. An ettempt has been made to calculate the evaporation from the concentrations of different ions. An approximate evaporation rate of 72 04, has been found, which corresponds to meteorological estimations. Norske meteorologiske institutt Arsbok. 1964, 1965, 1966. Oslo. Penman, H. L. 1948.
