	Upper Proterozoic succession of Bjornoya (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		The Upper Palaeozoic succession on Bjornoya comprises eight formations with a maximum composite thickness of about 1300 metres.
		The overlying Upper Carboniferous and Permian formations Consist largely of carbonates, with additional sandstones, shales, and cherts; these were deposited in shallow marine and coastal environments.
		Variations in facies and thickness together with palaeocurrent patterns suggest that Bjornoya lay near the southern margin of a depositional basin during much of the Upper Palaeozoic.

		The Patriarchal Federation of Bjornoya is a massive, economically powerful nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape.
		Bjornoya's national animal is the Leopard Seal, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Geld.

		Bjornoya has a very thin cover of unconsolidated Quaternary sediments.
		Glacial erratics of local origin are spread throughout the lowland areas, and glacial striae indicate glacial movement which was centred in the middle of the island.
		No traces of the Barents Sea ice sheet have been observed on Bjornoya, nor has there been any postglacial emergence of the island.

	Gravel Fraction, Spitsbergen Bank, Barents Shelf (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		The sandstone pebbles in the gravel include a variety of petrographic types, most of which are identical or similar to sandstones of known stratigraphic position on Svalbard.
		Observations on Mesozoic rocks on Bjornoya, Hopen and southern Spitsbergen, and on the distribution of pebbles as described herein, suggest that the Spitsbergen Bank is underlain by nearly flat-lying Mesozoic sedimentary rocks similar to those known on Svalbard.
		The overall structure is a gentle syncline; a southward continuation of the dominant regional structure of Spitsbergen.

		Bjornoya had a chance to expand and even Wilhelm seemed to have forgotten it, probably because he was already happy.
		In anycase as a part of the deal Bjornoya would offer the island of Bjornoya to the Kingdom of Norway under a few conditions.
		The elderly gentleman knew he was leaving and felt a bit saddened, but Bjornoya needed governors of his qualifications elsewhere.

		(a town in northern Norway) and Bjornoya a station on the small, Bear Island between Spitzbergen and Norway.
		Bjornoya is too short a record to cast light on the problem pre WWII cold anomaly in Isfjord Radio.
		The CRU Northern Hemisphere compilation Jones et al 1985 looked at 2666 stations, so clearly the project would have taken many more years to complete if the sort of greater detail climatology involved in the justification of Isfjord Radio was applied to every station, as elementary scientific principles would dictate.

		Examination of plots of potential vorticity (PV) at 460 K (~20 km) shows that Ny-Alesund (ENAS) and Bjornoya (ENBJ) were within the vortex through the entire ER2 deployment, and would be excellent sites to monitor vortex stratospheric temperatures.
		Bjornoya faired better in that there were 218 sondes launched, but few made it above 24 km so they are of little use.
		Typically a sonde should reach 30 km to be sure that the coldest stratospheric temperature has be seen.

		As a integrated part of a comprehensive study on fate and distribution of POPs in the Bjornoya ecosystem, the deposition (snow, fog) and atmospheric POP burden at Bjornoya has been monitored.
		Relative high levels in fog and precipitation samples indicate a significant contribution of atmospheric long-range transport to the overall contaminant burden in the Bjornoya ecosystem.
		Pattern changes between fresh fallen snow and aged surface snow indicated evaporation loss and/or possible degradation during the aging process of the surface snow.

	jolt.co.uk public forums - Religious Leaders Proclaim the "End of Days" in Bjornoya (E2ish)
		With the recent destruction of Mecca, the current state of Israel, and the outbreak of a seemingly invincible plague, a group of 10,000 elderly religious followers of various Christian denominations dressed in white robes and ascended Mt. Pyrious a few kilometers outside the Bjornoyan metropolis of Necropolis, awaiting the end of days.
		The group consists of Christians of all denominations allowed within the nation of Bjornoya.
		Their leader, Bishop Cardinghan, proclaimed, "The recent acts of God against the followers of the false prophet Mohammed are clear signs that our savior will return soon to purge the world of these evil entities.

		Gene expression patterns in land-locked Arctic charr population residing in lakes contaminated by PCBs on Bjornoya Island, Norway.
		ABSTRACT- A targeted trout cDNA microarray was used to compare gene expression patterns in Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus) residing in two lakes, Ellasjoen and Oyangen, on Bjornoya Island, Norway.
		Although the two lakes are only a few kilometers apart, their contaminant loading is very different providing an ideal model system to examine the tissue gene expression pattern associated with long-term xenobiotic exposure.
