Abstract:
The Royal Navy surgeon Robert McCormick (1800–1890) took part in three mid-nineteenth century British Polar expeditions, two to the Arctic and one to the Antarctic. Of the two Arctic voyages, the first was to Spitsbergen (in today's Svalbard) in 1827; the second from 1852 to 1853, was one of the expeditions dispatched to search for the missing ships commanded by Sir John Franklin that had set out in 1845 to navigate a “Northwest Passage” through the islands of the Canadian Arctic. The Svalbard expedition was formative in developing McCormick's interest in the Polar regions, with the likely hig

The site presents the NMD’s total collection of 2,170 historic skin clothing items, dating from circa 1830 to 1950, from the circumpolar area. The clothing can be studied in minute detail due to high-resolution photos; 100 complete suits were photographed from all sides. Furthermore, 107 items of clothing were measured by means of 3D technology,

ABSTRACTThe two gun schooners Axel Thorsen and Skjøn Walborg were launched in 1810 and initially served as patrol ships with the task of protecting merchant vessels leaving Archangel from British attacks during the Napoleonic wars. Following the peace of 1815, the Norwegian authorities interpreted Russian activities in Finnmark, northern Norway, with considerable suspicion and, in 1816, Axel Thorsen was sent north to remove the Russian settlers from the area and to demolish their buildings. In 1817 and 1818, Skjøn Walborg replaced Axel Thorsen on the same mission. The two vessels also carried

Robert McCormick (1800–1890) took part in three mid-nineteenth-century British Polar expeditions, two to the Arctic and one to the Antarctic. The latter, from 1839 to 1843 and led by James Clark Ross, is the best known. McCormick served as senior surgeon on HMS Erebus and was responsible for the collection of zoological and geological specimens. Despite the novelty and potential scientific importance of these early geological collections from Antarctica and remote islands in the Southern Ocean, they received surprisingly little attention at the time. Ross deposited an official collection with

Useful records of observations perhaps began in 1596 with Barents' voyage and resulting chart. The many expeditions until the middle of the eighteenth century were primarily for whaling with minor additions to the charts. In 1758 A. R. Martin led a Swedish voyage and in 1773 C. J. Phipps commanded a British naval expedition, the first of several, to seek a northeast passage to the Pacific. They penetrated no further than Spitsbergen and made useful observations. At that time and for many years the British Admiralty was concerned with extensive Arctic exploration. The elaborate nature of these

AbstractAlthough more widely known as the founder of modern embryology, Karl Ernst von Baer played a special role in the investigation of the physical geography of the Russian Empire in the nineteenth century. Baer not only conducted his own scientific research in the Arctic, he was also a key supporter and organiser of other Russian expeditions to the far north. Baer carried out the first investigations of the physical geography, flora, and fauna of Novaya Zemlya, and it was due to his work that the first precise data on the climate of the Russian Arctic appeared in the scientific literature

This article is devoted to a little-studied aspect of the history of Russian exploration of the North - one of the first Arctic expeditions of Russians at the beginning of the 19th century. The appeal to the historical experience of the discovery and study of the New Siberian Islands archipelago is determined by the growing interest in it on the part of world powers in connection with the development of coastal shelf resources that began here and the resumption of work on the Northern Sea Route.

Nils Adolf Erik Nordenskiöld (1832–1901), a Finnish Swedish scientist and explorer, made three expeditions to the North Asian coast between 1875 and 1879. He completed ten expeditions to the Arctic region between 1858 and 1883. The unifying goal of the North Asian expeditions was to open a trade route between Europe and Siberia. As a scientist, Nordenskiöld also studied the flora, fauna, geology, geography, hydrology, meteorology, ethnology, and history, and produced charts of this unfamiliar territory. This article argues that Nordenskiöld used his skills of environmental literacy when he com

Abstract By the mid-1840s, the British Magnetic Scheme was in full sway. Edward Sabine and Robert Were Fox were becoming highly adept at equipping expeditions of increasing ambition and examining the magnetic data they returned. This chapter examines the evolving system of the British state in the surveying of the Earth’s magnetic phenomena between 1843 and 1850 through the series of expeditions that sustained this enterprise. The voyages of HMS Samarang and HMS Rattlesnake to the Far East, Japan, and around the world, examined regions previously uncharted by European travellers and represente

Abstract Between 1818 and 1839, a series of Royal Navy expeditions searched the Arctic in hope of finding a North-West Passage that would connect the North Atlantic with the Pacific. Ostensibly intended to expand Britain’s trade routes and commerce, these voyages were also moments of considerable scientific activity. In particular, the magnetic research of Edward Sabine, John Franklin, and James Clark Ross transformed these expeditions into celebrated inquiries into natural phenomena. Most famously, Ross’s discovery of the north magnetic pole in 1831 stirred unrivalled enthusiasm in British au

Born in Galena, Illinois, Schwatka graduated from West Point in 1871, was admitted to the Nebraska Bar in 1875, and received a medical degree from Bellevue Hospital Medical College in New York in 1876. Obsessed with the lost 1845 Franklin expedition, he undertook an expedition into the Arctic in 1879-1880 and actually located some graves. This was hailed in his time as one of the great triumphs of arctic exploration. Sc
