message: I have changed the name of the article to Bear Island (Norway) per use English and per use common names and per outcomes of the dicussion held on the appropriate name of the Island at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2008 May 20#Category:Bear Island. gidonb (talk) 14:41, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

message: I have made a climate chart based on official data from Norwegian Meteorological Institute, which operates the only weather station on the island. I suggest adding it to the article, as the climate always is a crucial factor for life/biomes in the Arctic. The tundra climate on Bear Island has clear maritime influences, making the winter somewhat less cold than typical for the high Arctic. Here it is:

message: The map http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/24/Bjornoya_Location_Map-en.svg used to show the location of Bear Island contains three islands between Norway and the Shetlands along the 60° longitude.
Is there an alternative map that can be used? Tormod Renberg Lerøy (talk) 15:37, 14 February 2013 (UTC)

Even in winter it's barely freezing there. The sunlight is extremely low, but flora should rapidly accelerate with the introduction of significant growing season and no surface permafrost (lag time for deeper frost)
The mean annual temp (MAT) was already in the upper 20s decades ago. With recent data, even Longyearbyen, Spitsbergen, at nearly 80 degs N, has a MAT in the upper 20s.  B137 (talk) 23:43, 3 January 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  No longer permafrost supporting climate 

message: I suggest that the wikipedia article of Bear Island be changed from the current to Bear Island (Svalbard). There are multiple Bear Islands within Norway but only one in Svalbard so I think this would be the least confusing. It would also be consistent with other patterns of islands in Svalbard that follow this trend, such as https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hopen_(Svalbard). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:EmilePersaud 14:43, 14 August 2022 (UTC)

message: Morse code normally has gaps between the letters.
So "BJO" would be "-... .--- ---".
Is this the case for the call sign?
