Vestfonna is an ice cap located on the western part Nordaustlandet in the Svalbard archipelago in Norway. The glacier covers an area of about 2,500 km2. It is the third largest ice cap in Svalbard and Norway by area, after Austfonna and Olav V Land.

Temporal Variations of NO 3 − and nss SO 4 2− [22] The depth profiles of NO 3 − and nss SO 4 2− above 50 m and the dates are shown in Figure 5. Vestfonna is an ice cap located on the western part Nordaustlandet in the Svalbard archipelago in Norway. The glacier covers an area of about 2,500 km2. It is the third largest ice cap in Svalbard and Norway by area, after Austfonna and Olav V Land. Vestfonna er den nest største isbreen på Svalbard, og utgjør den vestlige tredjedelen av øya Nordaustlandet – i Gustav V Land mellom Wahlenbergfjorden og Nordenskiöldbukta.[1] The Vestfonna ice cap is the smaller of the two ice caps and covers about 2400km2 and ranges in altitude from sea level to 630m a.s.l.

Här finns t.ex. Austfonna ( Europas största), Vestfonna och Sörfonna. Resten är tundra. Vestfonna (VSF) is characterised by a varied surface topog-raphy with two main ridges and strongly pronounced fast-outlet glaciers (Dowdeswell and Collin, 1990, Fig. 1).

Aus­t­fon­na means ‘eas­tern ice cap’. ‘Brå’ means ‘sud­den’, svell is ‘advan­ce’. The Brås­vell­breen is named becau­se of a sud­den advan­ce in 1937-38, a so-cal­led sur­ge. The sur­face area of Aus­t­fon­na is 8100 km 2, without neigh­bou­ring Vega­fon­na (350 km 2).

Along with the much larger neighbouring Austfonna and Icelandic VatnaJökull, it is among the largest ice masses of the European Arctic. Vestfonna is an ice cap located on the western part of the Svalbard archipelago and covers an area of about 2,500 square kilometres. Jostedalsbreen Situated in Vestland county in Fjord Norway, Jostedalsbreen is the largest glacier in continental Europe , covering 487 square kilometres with ice up to 600 metres thick.

Its mass balance is poorly known and affected dynamically by these fast-flowing outlet glaciers. Hence, it is a challenging target for ice flow modeling. Vestfonna is an ice cap located on the western part Nordaustlandet in the Svalbard archipelago in Norway. The glacier covers an area of about 2,500 km 2. It is the third largest ice cap in Svalbard and Norway by area, after Austfonna and Olav V Land .
