We focus on cross-institutional and cross-country partnerships between preparedness institutions and companies. We elaborate on the operational crisis management of joint emergency operations including several parts of the preparedness system and resources from several countries. The project goals are: • To increase understanding of the future demands for preparedness systems in the High North including both search and rescue, oil spill recovery, fire fighting and salvage, as well as capacities fighting terror or other forms of destructive action. • To study partnerships and coordination challenges related to cross-border, multi-task emergency cooperation • To contribute with organizational tools for crisis management Project characteristics: Financial support: -Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, -the Nordland county Administration -University partners.

The user has requested enhancement of the downloaded file. ARCTIC RIFT COPPER Part of world’s newest metallogenic province: Kiffaanngissuseq Technical Assessment Report Greenfields Exploration Ltd November 2020 This report presents a holistic view of north eastern Greenland’s geology. The empirical evidence of mineralisation and geological record are tied in with mineral system components from global through to prospect scales. The source rocks, geodynamic triggers, pathways, and deposition sites are all identified within a preserved terrane. This work defines the Kiffaanngissuseq metallogenic province, a previously undescribed mineral system. For the first time, we identify a c. 1,250 Ma orogenic event in the basement as the geodynamic trigger related to the basalt- hosted native copper within the Arctic Rift Copper project. A c. 385 Ma fluid migration is identified as the trigger for a second copper-sulphide mineralising event expressed within the project, that also emplaced a distal zinc deposit within Kiffaanngissuseq. This multi-episodal mineral system is supported by a regional geochemical and hydrodynamic framework that is not articulated elsewhere.

  • De-Overvie Nato Defence Planning Capability Review
    ràai NORTH ATlANTIC COUNCIL L nL •)VÀ1LI CONSEIL DE UATLANTIQUE NoRD 22 May 2014 DOCUMENT C-M(2014)0027 (DE-OVERVIE NATO DEFENCE PLANNING CAPABILITY REVIEW 201312014 DENMARK OVERVIEW 1. The 2013-2017 Defence Agreement agreed in November 2012 by seven of the eight political parties represented in the Danish Parliament introduced measures to improve efficiency and inciudes a reduction of the defence budget by approximately 12% of the 2013 budget. As a result there will be major changes to the structure of the armed forces. However, there is a clear political objective that the budget cuts will not impact operational capability. Continued participation in operations is a priority within the Danish defence organisation and forces will continue to be configured to be able to deploy at short notice. The freeing of money spent on operations in Afghanistan, as a result of a reduced level of forces, will be reinvested in defence, into programmes designed to maintain operational capabilities in terms of training and materiel, but will not fully compensate for the budget reductions. 2. The aim of Denmark’s foreign and security policy is the promotion of national security and prosperity based on core values of freedom, democracy and human rights. NATO remains a cornerstone of Danish security and defence policy. Denmark’s armed forces, contributing to the defence dimension of its pro-active foreign and security policy, are actively engaged in current international operations, conducted under the aegis of NATO or the UN. Active engagement in the Arctic/High North is also of strategic importance to Denmark and to that end, in October 2012, two existing structures were merged into a Joint Arctic Command which was established in Nuuk, Greenland.

Formålet med rapporten er at studere og analysere de forskellige måder, hvorpå landene i Arktis benytter sig af lokale kapaciteter i forbindelse med maritim sikkerhed og beredskab i Arktis. Dette muliggør en vurdering af, hvordan beredskabsniveauet i nordlige farvande kan øges yderligere, samt hvilke spørgsmål som burde undersøges af fremtidige studier. Center for Militære Studier er et forskningscenter på Institut for Statskundskab på Københavns Universitet. På centret forskes der i sikkerheds- og forsvarspolitik samt militær strategi.

  • Department of Defense Report to Congress on Strategy to Protect United States National Security Interests in the Arctic Region
    Department of Defense Report to Congress on Strategy to Protect United States National Security Interests in the Arctic Region OUSD (Policy) December 2016 The estimated cost of this report or study for the Department of Defense is approximately $119,000 in Fiscal Years 2016 - 2017. This includes $50 in expenses and $119,000 in DoD labor. Generated on 2016Oct20 RefID: A-CE2489B EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Department of Defense (DoD) remains committed to working collaboratively with allies and partners to promote a balanced approach to improving security in the Arctic region.1 DoD’s strategy in the Arctic builds upon the 2009 National Security Presidential Directive 66/ Homeland Security Presidential Directive 25, Arctic Region Policy, and the 2013 National Strategy for the Arctic Region (NSAR). DoD’s 2013 Arctic Strategy nested under those two overarching national-level guidance documents. DoD’s 2016 Arctic Strategy updates DoD’s 2013 Arctic Strategy as required by Section 1068 of the National Defense Authorization Act for FY 2016 (P.L. 114-92) in light of significant changes in the international security environment. It refines DoD’s desired end-state for the Arctic: a secure and stable region where U.S. national interests are safeguarded, the U.S. homeland is defended, and nations work cooperatively to address challenges. The two main supporting objectives remain unchanged: 1) Ensure security, support safety, promote defense cooperation; and 2) prepare to respond to a wide range of challenges and contingencies—operating in conjunction with like-minded nations when possible and independently if necessary—in order to maintain stability in the region.
