During the 2007 season, research at the station Kinnvika – built for the third International Polar Year 1957–1958 and situated on Nordaustlandet in Svalbard – was restarted.
The research focused on glaciology, geology, biology, ecology and atmospheric chemistry. Research projects based in social sciences and humanities were also carried out.
