Introduction At the Fourth International Reindeer/Caribou Symposium, held in Whiterhorse, Canada, 1985, Sweden declared it's intention to host the next International Reindeer/Caribou Symposium. A meeting with delegates from the participating countries was held and the Swedish offer was un• animously accepted. At the same meeting the experiences from earlier symposia were critically evaluated in order to achieve the best prerequisits possible for symposia to come. Some of the principal views declared were not to split the sessions in different meetings and in addition to con• centrate more of the scientific presentations on poster exhibitions and poster sessions. The Fifth International Reindeer/Caribou Symposium, held August 18-22 1988 in Arvidsjaur, Sweden, was thus in principal arranged according to the views expressed in Whitehorse. Arvidsjaur was chosen as site for the Symposium as it has long been a centre for reindeer herding and research activities. The excellent localities of the Norrland Dragon Regiment (K 4) put at our disposal and the hearty support of the township of Arvidsjaur and the Sami villages made the arrangements possible. In Arvidsjaur the USSR declared it's intension to arrange the next International Reindeer/Caribou Symposium to be held in 1991. The proceedings you now hold definitely close the Fifth International Reindeer/Caribou Symposium. Claes Rehbinder Secretary General Rangifer, Special Issue No. 3, 1990.

M. 2008: Transitions in herd management of semi-domesticated rein- deer in northern Finland. — Ann. Zool. Fennici 45: 81–101. In northern Finland, reindeer-herd management has experienced two major transitions: extensification of intensive herding, and development of supplementary/corral feeding in winter. The transitions were studied in six herding associations in different parts of the Finnish reindeer management area. It was suggested that intensive herding turns into more extensive forms as the reasons for intensive herding (predation, reindeer dis- appearing to foreign areas, protection of agricultural fields) gradually ceased to exist. The results of the study, based on interviews of elderly reindeer herders, were variable. In the three southern areas intensive herding changed to the free ranging system at the latest during WWII, whilst in the northern areas intensive herding was replaced by extensive herding with the aid of snowmobiles in the 1960s. In the southern herding associations, especially, supplementary/corral feeding in winter was considered neces- sary, from the 1970s onwards, to compensate for the loss of arboreal lichens associated with forest regeneration.

  • Centre for Automotive Systems Technologies and Testing CASTT Annual Report 2 2009 Has Been CASTT’S Most Successful Year to Date
    The northernmost University of Technology in Scandinavia World-class research and education ANNUAL REPORT 2009 Centre for Automotive Systems Technologies and Testing CASTT ANNUAL REPORT 2 2009 has been CASTT’s most SUCCESSFUL YEAR to date CASTT has developed in several ways, perhaps most importantly in that a growing number of interested parties from Sweden, Europe and around the world are now gathering around CASTT and the projects that are being conducted. For example, automotive companies from India are now collaborating with CASTT. The increasing attention that CASTT is receiving in the Gothenburg region is very exciting. This shows that the automobile testing industry’s efforts to become an accepted part of the Swedish auto industry are paying off. I look forward with great anticipation to what the CASTT road map project will deliver. It is my hope that this project will provide a map for the continued development of the automobile testing industry and LTU as a bearer of knowledge within the automobile industry. CASTT is growing project-wise. We are now conducting 12 projects in collaboration with entrepreneurs and automobile companies. On the basis of this strong foundation, I look to the future with great confidence. JERKER DELSING Chair, CASTT management group CASTT ANNUAL REPORT 3 CASTT takes on the challenge Testing is a growing business segment. Greater competition, traffic-safety and environmental concerns are leading to an increased need for testing of both vehicle systems and road systems. Since 2005, CASTT has been working to promote the development of the testing industry. CASTT brings together entrepreneurs, researchers, teachers, engineers and financiers.
