• Light in the Polar Night 

      Cohen, Jonathan H.; Berge, Jørgen; Moline, Mark A.; Johnsen, Geir; Zolich, Artur Piotr (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2020)
      How much light isa vailable for biological processes during Polar Night? This question appears simple enough. But the reality is that conventional light sen- sors for measuring visible light (~350 to ~700 nm) have not been sensitive enough to answer it. Beyond this technical challenge, “light” is a general term that must be qualified in terms of “light climate” before it has meaning for biological ...
    • Spectral and RGB analysis of the light climate and its ecological impacts using an all-sky camera system in the Arctic

      The ArcLight observatory provides an hourly continuous time series of all-sky images providing light climate data (intensity, spectral composition, and photoperiod) from the Arctic (Svalbard at 79°N). Until recently, no complete annual time series of light climate relevant for biological processes has been provided from the high Arctic because of insufficient sensitivity of commercial light sensors ...
