reports which are based on the experiences and
measurements during and after the Huurre Expedition to
the North Pole in 1984. Two reports are dealing with
snow studies. Snow samples have been collected during the
expedition. The first research has been made at Finnish
Meteorological Institute and Technical Research Centre of
Finland. Inorganic ions of snow have been tested at
laboratories. In the other study there have been tested
organochlorine pollutants in snow, which has been done at
