	Albedo: Definition and links.
		For example, Eismitte is a weather station situated a bit south of the geographical center of the island (near 70°N) at an altitude of 9843 feet.
		But the actual average July temperature at Eismitte is only -12°C (10°F), and furthermore, the next warmest month is June, at only -17°C (2°F).
		June being warmer than August is a clear sign that there are some outside influences on the climate, in particular that sunlight plays an unusually large role in regulating temperature, because June is the sunniest month of the year in most of the northern part of the Northern Hemisphere.

	AWI: History of polar research/ Ernst Sorge
		In 1930/31, Sorge, along with Georgi and Loewe, was among the overwinterers at Wegener's central 'Eismitte' station.
		Sorge was responsible for glaciological studies at 'Eismitte'.
		In summer 1931, Sorge conducted seismic measurements of the ice thickness at 'Eismitte'.

		'''Eismitte''' was the site of an Arctic expedition in the interior of Greenland that took place from July of 1930 through August of 1931, and claimed the life of noted Germany German scientist Alfred Wegener.
		The name means "Eismitte" means ''Middle of the Ice'' in German language German, and the campsite was located 402 kilometers (250 miles) from the coast at an estimated altitude of 3,000 meters (9,843 feet).

		Wegener had earlier written his brother Kurt of the polar explorer's "obligation to be a hero." This was doubly true for an expedition leader, so on September 21 Wegener himself led a 15-dogsled run to relieve Eismitte.
		Wegener wrote it was now "a matter of life and death" for his friends at Eismitte.
		At Eismitte, the travelers were delighted to find that Georgi and Sorge had been able to dig an ice cave for shelter; moreover, they thought they could stretch their supplies through the winter.

		All towns and settlements of Greenland are situated along the ice-free coast, with the population being concentrated along the Western coast.
		At least two scientific expedition stations had been established in the ice-covered central part of Greenland, on the ice cap: Eismitte and North_Ice.
		The extreme North of Greenland is not covered by an ice_cap (indicated as pale blue in the map to the right), because the air there is too dry to produce snow, which is essential in the production and maintenance of an ice cap.

		Yet these efforts, too, are apparently to no avail: deep, new snow and insufficient power cause the propeller-driven sleds to fail.
		The central station, called 'Eismitte', must be supplied using conventional sleds pulled by dogs.
		Although a large proportion of their supplies is lost en route, he, Fritz Loewe and Rasmus Villumsen continue their journey to 'Eismitte' - at temperatures as low as -54° C. On 30 October they finally reach the station.

		Analyzing Sorge’s data, Bader developed a mathematical expression that came to be known as “Sorge’s Law of Densification.” With this law as their guide, later investigators, such as the American Chester C. Langway, could determine the amount of annual accumulation even though they could not detect annual layers in their ice cores.
		For all the science it accomplished, the 1930 Wegener Expedition would be most remembered for the singular fact that after Alfred Wegener departed Eismitte on the morning of November 1, 1930, to return to the base camp, he was never again seen alive.
		The scientists at Eismitte had no way of communicating to the base camp that Wegener had departed the mid-ice camp.

		As a result of the weather, supplies were hard to obtain, and Wegener finally went to deliver supplies to another observation post.
		Once they got to the camp Eismitte, there was no longer a need for supplies; it was predicted to be able to last through the winter.
		Wegener’s colleague Fritz Lowe was very sick, so he stayed behind at Eismitte.

	Wikipedia: Climate
		ET is also found at high elevations outside the polar regions, above the timber line - as at Mount Washington, New Hampshire.
		EF (Ice Cap) climate: All twelve months have average temperatures below 0 °C. This climate is dominant in Antarctica (e.g., Scott Base) and in inner Greenland (e.g., Eismitte).
		Occasionally, a third, lower-case letter is added to ET climates if either the summer or winter is clearly drier than the other half of the year; thus Qikiqtaruk, or Herschel Island, off the coast of Canada's Yukon Territory, becomes ETw, with Pic du Midi de Bigorre in the French Pyrenees acquiring an ETs designation.

		Alfred Wegener, der sommeren igennem forestod arbejdet med hovedstationen ved Scheideck, måtte om efteråret erkende, at man ikke magtede at få stationsbygningen transporteret til Eismitte.
		Samtidig med Alfred Wegeners ekspedition til Eismitte gennemførtes under ledelse af H. Gino Watkins med støtte fra Royal Geographic Society i London "British Arctic Airroute Expedition" med henblik på at skaffe viden og erfaring vedrørende flyoperationer i Grønland.
		I 1948 startede Victor på oprettelse af "Station Centrale" (70° 55' N, 40° 38' W), der gerne skulle placeres nær Wegeners Eismitte, for at gøre det muligt at relatere nye data til Wegeners gamle.

		Wegener and his two remaining companions finally reached Eismitte on October 30, after traveling 40 days.
		The heroic rescue run had been unnecessary, but there had been no way to let Wegener know.
		Puzzled, they went on to Eismitte, but when they heard Wegener and Villumsen had left six months before, they hurried back to make a more thorough search.

	Alfred Wegener and his Greenland expeditions. Collections of the Alfred Wegener Archive, Bremerhaven
		Papers and documents relating to the overwintering station "Eismitte" and the question of Wegener's death constitute the greater part of the Alfred Wegener Archive.
		However, diaries and photos also show the big efforts of all expedition members to fulfill Wegener's plan of a meteorological and glaciological profile over the whole inland ice cap of Greenland addressing questions about climate and climatic history of Europe.
		Wegener's expeditions are being "relived" by recent research proposals of the Alfred-Wegener-Institute: its activity in the European Greenland Icecore Project (GRIP) in Central Greenland near "Eismitte", also trying to elucidate climate history (of course with much more sophisticated methods than Wegener) and ice core projects at Scoresbysund where Wegener's East-Station was located.

		Under time pressure, three inland stations are built at 72 degrees northern latitude and serve for geophysical and meteorological investigations throughout one year.
		In particular, construction and supply of the centrally located station “Eismitte” (‘Central Ice’) prove difficult as the modern propeller sledges are hardly usable under the prevailing snow conditions.
		With newly accumulated deep snow and temperatures down to minus 54 degrees Celsius, equipment and materials are transported across 400 kilometres by dog sledge.

		The data are compared with that from two earlier stations, Eismitte (70.90¡N, 40.70¡W, 3000 m) from September 1930 through August 1931 (Wegener's expedition) and Station Central (70.92¡N, 40.64¡W, 2993 m) from September 1949 through August 1951 (Victor's Expedition).
		The winds observed at Cathy Site were quite similar to those observed at the two previous stations.
