Red dots are acoustic mooring locations. 1. Introduction The US National Science Foundation (NSF) funded a project to “design and develop an integrated underwater acoustic sensor network for ice-covered seas.” Wolstenholme Fjord adjacent to Thule Air Base (TAB) in Greenland was identified to test and deploy this communication network to provide a real-time data connection between a remote transmit and a coastal receive unit via several data hops from modem to modem. The envisioned system shares features of a cell phone network where data passes from caller to receiver via cell phone towers. The fjord is covered by land-fast sea ice during spring and thus provides a stable platform from which to test, deploy, and recover a range of oceanographic and acoustic sensor systems via snowmobiles during day-light hours when air temperatures are generally above -25°C. During the first phase from Mar.-11 through Mar.-25 we conducted ice thickness surveys, placed an automated weather station (AWS) on the sea ice along with a provisional shelter and deployed an oceanographic thermistor mooring in water 110 m deep at the center of the study area.

  • Sheep Farming As “An Arduous Livelihood”
    University of Alberta Cultivating Place, Livelihood, and the Future: An Ethnography of Dwelling and Climate in Western Greenland by Naotaka Hayashi A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Anthropology ©Naotaka Hayashi Spring 2013 Edmonton, Alberta Permission is hereby granted to the University of Alberta Libraries to reproduce single copies of this thesis and to lend or sell such copies for private, scholarly or scientific research purposes only.

The author reserves all other publication and other rights in association with the copyright in the thesis and, except as herein before provided, neither the thesis nor any substantial portion thereof may be printed or otherwise reproduced in any material form whatsoever without the author's prior written permission. Abstract In order to investigate how Inuit Greenlanders in western Greenland are experiencing, responding to, and thinking about recent allegedly human-induced climate change, this dissertation ethnographically examines the lives of Greenlanders as well as Norse and Danes in the course of past historical natural climate cycles. My emphasis is on human endeavours to cultivate a future in the face of difficulties caused by climatic and environmental transformation. I recognize locals’ initiatives to carve out a future in the promotion of sheep farming and tree-planting in southern Greenland and in adaptation processes of northern Greenlandic hunters to the ever-shifting environment.

  • Hjemmestyrets Bekendtgørelse Nr. 12 Af 10. August 2006 Om Fastlæggelse
    Hjemmestyrets bekendtgørelse nr. 12 af 10. august 2006 om fastlæggelse af principper for fordeling af omkostninger til udregning af enhedsomkostninger for el, vand og kollektiv varme Historisk I medfør af § 18, stk. 3, og § 21 i landstingsforordning nr. 14 af 6. november 1997 om energiforsyning fastsættes: Kapitel 1 Formål og anvendelsesområde § 1. Formålet med bekendtgørelsen er at sikre en ensartethed i måden, hvorpå enhedsomkostninger opgøres for el, vand og kollektive varme. § 2. Bekendtgørelsen omfatter forsyningsvirksomheder, der er beskæftiget med indvinding, transmission, produktion og distribution af el, vand og kollektiv varme til den offentlige forsyning. § 3. Bekendtgørelsen fastlægger principperne for forsyningsvirksomheders fordeling af omkostninger til brug for udarbejdelse af et fordelingsregnskab, som er grundlaget for beregning af enhedsomkostninger, der opgøres for hver enkelt lokalitet. Kapitel 2 Fordelingsregnskab Årlig udarbejdelse per lokalitet § 4. Den enkelte forsyningsvirksomhed skal hvert år udarbejde et fordelingsregnskab baseret på samme data som årsregnskabet, gældende for hver enkelt lokalitet, jf. dog stk. 3. Ved lokalitet skal forstås hver enkelt by og hver enkelt bygd. Stk. 2. Såfremt to eller flere byer eller bygder forsynes af samme produktions- og distributionsanlæg regnes disse som én lokalitet. Stk. 3. Fordelingsregnskabet for varme opgøres for hver produktionsenhed med det dertil hørende distributionsnet på hver enkelt lokalitet, når det bliver regnskabsteknisk muligt, dog senest i 2010. § 5. Fordelingsregnskabet

Box 769 www.niras.gl 3900 Nuuk, Greenland 1 INTRODUCTION This document contains the Terms of Reference (ToR) for the Social Impact As- sessment (SIA) for the proposed Pituffik Titanium Project (the Project). Dundas Titanium A/S (Dundas Titanium) is based in Greenland and holds 100 % of the Pittufik Titanium Project (the project). Dundas Titanium is owned by Bluejay Mining plc which is listed on the London Stock Exchange AIM market. The company structure is illustrated in the box below. Dundas Titanium (the Company) is preparing an application for an exploitation license to develop the Project located 80 km south of Qaanaaq, in the Munici- pality of Qaasuitsup (from 1 January 2018 Avannaata Kommunia)1. The Project will extract Ilmenite, a primary source of titanium metal. As part of the application process Dundas Titanium will submit a Social Impact Assessment (SIA) and an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) describing the potential impacts and planned mitigation measures for the Projects construc- tion, operation and closure. Furthermore, Dundas Titanium will submit a feasi- bility study as part of the application. The objectives of these Terms of Reference for the SIA are to: Present a non-technical project brief, including a brief introduction to local conditions, Present key issues that are to be addressed in the SIA, Describe the SIA process including the proposed public and stakeholder engagement activities for the SIA, Give the citizens of Greenland an option for conducting influence on how the project will benefit and impact the Greenlandic society and its people.
