Position: 87° 07.5' N, 68° 12' W, temperature - 31° C, air pressure 1025 hPa, wind 7 knots from the NE. Ice drift 0.1 towards E. Checked radiation flux instruments; cleaned sensors, changed fan battery (80 Ahr., 13 Volt, changed memory card and battery on the data logger. Used battery measured 12.2 Volt. Checked the weather station. Worked on cleaning the hydro hole using the vertical ice saw. Discovered the air gun hanging from the air hose and the signal cable - the wire had broken. Recovered the air gun. Insufficient wind to test the wind mill.

Position: 87° 08.3' N, 68° 54' W, temperature - 27° C, air pressure 1025 hPa, wind 10 knots from NE. Ice drift 0.1 knot to the E. Shooting seismic reflection all day. Cleaning up after several days of blowing snow. The wind mill came up on a pole, and the power line need to be connected

Position: 87° 10.' N, 67° 28' W, temperature - 22° C, air pressure 1010 hPa, wind 33 knot from the NE. Ice drift 0.5 knots towards W. Blowing snow. Shooting seismic reflection all day. By 1400 hours, the drift slowed down and the direction turned back east towards Lomonosov Ridge. Audun worked on the wind mill taking it apart and checking for salt.

Position: 87° 08.9' N, 64° 33' W, temperature - 24° C, air pressure 1017 hPa, wind 27 knots from the NE. Ice drift 0.5 knots towards W. Blowing snow. Shooting seismic reflection all day. The shot interval was 80 second at mid-day. We had to service the air gun in the early morning. Checked the radiation flux instruments, cleaned sensors and changed battery (110 Ahr. 12.8 V) for the fan.

Position: 87° 07.7' N, 61° 16' W, temperature - 24° C, air pressure 1021 hPa, wind 23 knots from the NNE. Ice drift 0.3 knots towards W. Blowing snow. Shooting seismic reflection all day.

Position: 87° 08.3' N, 60° 00' W, temperature -38° C, air pressure 1029 hPa, wind 3 knots from ESE. Ice drift 0.1 knots towards the south during the first part of the day. Shooting seismic reflaction all day. Prepared the winch and Kevlar drum. Started remarking the 2.800 m Kevlar we have left. The wind increased dramatically in the evening and the ice drift increased to 0.6 knot.

Position: 87° 08.6' N, 60° 17' W, temperature - 37° C, air pressure 1028 hPa, wind 6 knots from the NW. Ice drift 0.1 knot to the southeast. The air gun went into the water after midnight and seismic shooting resumed at 0253 hours. However, the seismic data logger started intermittent self trigging during the day. The problem was cured with advice from Ole Meyer. Audun started the fuel cell. Error code 75 Call service, was the response. Submitted an inquiry to the factory by e-mail.

Position: 87° 13.4' N, 61° 38' W, temperature - 34° C, air pressure 1006 hPa, wind 10 knots from the NW. Ice drift 0.4 towards SE. The hydro hole had frozen up after not being used for 8 days. Had by now 0.5 m thick ice in the middle and the whole thickness along the sides. Mobilized the invented new hydraulic chain saw to make vertical cuts down-hole. This worked very well, but it still took most of the day to get the hole cleared.

Position: 87° 20.5' N, 63° 04' W, temperature - 29° C, air pressure 1000 hPa, wind 11 knots. Ice drift 0.1 knot to the SSW. Finished the compressor heat box and started warming up. Audun worked on the small 800 W generator to see if we could get power from it - the engine runs, but power is sometimes there, but most often not.
