The cruise is part of the activity within the project FJO2Rd, financed by the Norwegian Research project. The primary objective of FJO2RD is to explore if, how, and why the renewal frequency has changed as a result of physical climate change, and to determine its link to the deoxygenation of Norwegian fjords and the potential anthropogenic contribution. During the cruise we
1) Made CTD sections and took water samples (O2, Alcalinity, nutrients, total carbon, isotopes and trace metals) from Lure and Masfjorden
2) Deployed and recovered oceanographic moorings in the fjords
3) Took sediment cores using a) Multi-corer and b) gravity corer.

The goal of the cruise is to collect fish eggs for mapping spawning areas in the project «National program for mapping of marine nature types». The primary targets for the mapping are local stock of coastal cod. The secondary goal is to visually determine all eggs and preserve these for further genetic studies. All eggs are photographed. Stations are located primarily in the inner fjord areas, with less emphasis on the outer coastal areas.

Effects of seismic sound on zooplankton (ZoopSeis) is a project founded by the Norwegian Research Council, aiming at uncovering the effect of seismic on zooplankton. This cruise is part of the ZoopSeis project. The aim of the cruise was to find at what distance seismic airguns impact zooplankton in terms of immediate mortality, delayed mortality and any behaviours effects (i.e. swarming, sinking and so on). In addition to the zooplankton response to seismic we conducted an acoustic transect on Vikingbanken on our way back. The transect lasted 10 hour covering ~93 nm. The methods followed standard acoustic survey coverage. The acoustic data was scrutinised following sandeel protocol. |

Areas in central Norway were heavily contaminated with fallout from the Chernobyl accident in 1986. Due to rainfall during the first few days after the accident, some areas in Oppland, Hedmark, Trøndelag and Nordland counties, were particularly contaminated. Results from Norway's national monitoring programme Radioacitivity in the Marine Environment (RAME: www.dsa.no) show that Vefsnfjord is one of the Norwegian fjords with highest levels of radioactive cesium (137Cs) in surface sediments with activity concentrations up to 348 Bq kg-1 dry weight (d.w.) in the period 2002-2020. These levels are two orders of magnitude higher than in open Norwegian sea area sediments, and confirm that Vefsnfjord is heavily affected by 137Cs contamination, even more than 30 years after the Chernobyl accident. The aim of this cruise was To investigate in more detail how 137Cs is transported from land via rivers to the Vefsnfjord. To study how 137Cs is distributed in the fjord between seawater, particles in the seawater, sediments and various marine organisms living in the fjord. We collected samples of surface seawater, bottom seawater, seawater from 20 m depth, surface sediments, sediment cores and various marine organisms. The seawater samples were size fractionated. |

The second part of the cruise (21st of July to 13th August) corresponds to the International Bottom Trawl Survey (IBTS), coordinated by the ICES International Bottom Trawl Survey Working Group (IBTSWG). IBTS targets the following commercial fish species: herring, cod, haddock, whiting, saithe, Norway pout, mackerel, sprat. The main objective of the IBTS quarter 3 survey is to monitor changes in these stocks independently of commercial fisheries data, and to collect data for the determination of biological parameters relevant to stock assessments. Additionally, demersal and benthic community compositions are monitored, including size composition for all fish and commercial invertebrates. Hydrographic data (salinity, temperature) are also collected at each station.

The cruise KB2022625 (28. September 2022, Tromsø to 13. October 2022, Tromsø) aboard the Research Vessel Kristine Bonnevie is a Polar Front process studies cruise of the Nansen LEGACY project. The study region covered the steep topographic slope southeast of Bjørnøya and the Polar Front region between Hopen and Storebanken, all-in-all spreading 73.5°- 78°N and 19.5°-34.5°E. The objectives are to study frontal mixing processes using microstructure profilers, to deploy and recover a short-term mooring at the Polar Front and to deploy (and recover) an underwater glider equipped with turbulence sensors. The overarching goal is to collect data allowing for the analysis of physical processes at the Polar Front on sub-tidal to synoptic timescales. Combined with data from previous cruises, the timescales of investigation may be expanded to seasonal and inter-annual periods. We collected measurements of ocean stratification, currents, and microstructure from the vessel as well as from transects using ocean gliders. From the vessel we obtained 267 microstructure profiles down to 0-20 m above seabed, 64 CTD/LADCP profiles down to 5 m above seabed (all with salinity calibration samples taken at the deepest point), and 14 days of underway current profiles. From the glider we obtained 207 profiles (7 days) including using microstructure sensors in the Polar Front region north of Hopen Trench.
