Web page https://aari.ru/en mentions:

the research base Ice Cape Baranova, the Tiksi Hydrometeorological Observatory 
and the Russian Scientific Center on the Spitsbergen archipelago
year‑round stations: Novolazarevskaya, Bellingshausen, Mirny, Progress and Vostok
year‑round stations: Novolazarevskaya, Bellingshausen, Mirny, Progress and Vostok

but any details are probably only mentions on the Russian pages.

A lot of details are available on:
