FooteI, Marek Ostrowski , Ingolf R~ttingen3 and Aril Slotte • Institute ofMarine Research P. O. Box 1870 N-5024 Bergen, Norway ABSTRACT The spawning stock ofNorwegian spawning herring has been surveyed when wintering in the Vestfjord, Tysfjord, and Ofotfjord, in northern Norway in December 1996. Tbe basic method is that of echo integration, with compensation for acoustic extinction. Physical capture has been effected by means of the MultisampIer pelagic trawl, which allows remote opening and • closing of each of three codends at arbitrary depths. This has shown essentially thorough mixing of the dominant year classes except in the two fjord arms, where the sampIes contained a larger proportion of older fish (1983 year class). Geostatistics has been employed to describe the spatial structure and to provide an estimate of variance. Data quality control procedures have been performed and are described. 1 e-mail: [email protected] teU: +47 55 23 84 65 fax; +47 55 23 85 32 2 e-mail: [email protected] telf: +47 55 23 6848 fax: +4755 23 83 32 3 e-mail: [email protected]· telf: +47 55238404 fax: +47 55 23 86 87 4 e-mail: [email protected] telf; +4755 23 84 22 fax: +4755 23 86 87 - .. _------------ INTRODUCTION The spawning stock ofNorwegian spring spawning'heinri~'~~'been wintering in the _fjords of northern Norway since 1987. -
The Lillevik Dyke Complex, Narvik: Geochemistry and Tectonic Implications of a Probable Ophiolite Fragment in the Caledonides of the Ofoten Region, North Norway
The Lillevik dyke complex, Narvik: geochemistry and tectonic implications of a probable ophiolite fragment in the Caledonides of the Ofoten region, North Norway ROGNVALD BOYD Boyd, R.: The Lillevik dyke complex, Narvik: geochemistry and tectonic implications of a probable ophiolite fragment in the Caledonides of the Ofoten region, North Norway. Norsk Geologisk Tidsskrift, Vol. 63, pp. 39-54. Oslo 1983, ISSN 0029-196X. The Lillevik dyke complex occurs in an allochthonous unit and shows field relationships indicative of a transition from the mafic cumulate to the sheeted dyke zone in a segment of an ophiolite. Major and trace element chemistry confirm the MORB character of most of the diabases. Certain diabase, gabbro and trondhjemite dykes have REE patterns suggesting a later stage of ocean-island volcanism. The Lillevik complex and equivalent bodies along strike on the eastern limb of the Ofoten synform are a probable source for the mafic facies of the overlying Elvenes Conglomerate. Analogies with other areas suggest that the Lillevik complex was obducted during the Finnmarkian orogeny. R. Boyd, Norges geologiske undersøkelse, Postboks 3006, N-7001 Trondheim, Norway. The topic of this paper is a tectonically bounded gen Groups is marked by a conglomerate hori lens, consisting of gabbro cut by diabase and zon, the Elvenes Conglomerate, which consists gabbroic dykes and by leucocratic veins, which is mainly of matrix-supported cobbles of meta exposed on a shore section within the town of trondhjemite, quartzite and dolomitic marble in Narvik in North Norway.

NARVIK – Norwegian Eldorado for Wreck-Divers Wrecks of Narvik
NARVIK – Norwegian Eldorado for wreck-divers Wrecks of Narvik Text by Erling Skjold (history and diving) and Frank Bang (diving) Underwater photography by Frank Bang Ship photography by Erling Skjolds, NSA collection Translation by Michael Symes Dieter von Roeder The port of Narvik in north Norway was established around the export of iron-ore from Sweden. This was due to the very good harbour and its ice-free con- ditions. At the outbreak of World War II, Narvik was a strategically important harbour, and during the first few days of the war a very intense battle was fought out here between German, Norwegian and British naval forces. During this fighting several ships were sunk, both warships and civil merchant ships. Narvik harbour was transformed into a great ship ceme- tery, with wrecks sticking up out of the water every- where. Several of the ships were later salvaged, but many wrecks still remained. With its high density of wrecks, Narvik is an eldorado for wreck divers.

K Yanite-Grade Metamorphism in the Evenes and Bogen Groups, Ofoten
Kyanite-grade metamorphism in the Evenes and Bogen Groups, Ofoten, North Norway MARK G. STELTENPOHL & JOHN M. BARTLEY Steltenpohl, M. G. & Bartley, J. M. : Kyanite-grade metamorphism in the Evenes and Bogen Groups, Ofoten, North Norway. Norsk Geologisk Tidsskrift, Vol. 64, pp. 21-26. Oslo 1984. ISSN 0029-196X. Directly north of Ofotfjorden in northern Norway, pelitic schists within the Evenes and Bogen Groups contain the mineral assemblage garnet + biotite ± kyanite ± staurolite + white mica + quartz ± plagio clase. This assemblage implies metamorphic P-T minima of- 540"C and - 4. 8 kb. The rocks are thus at a higher grade than suggested by previous reports, which placed them in the greenschist facies. This indicates that several metamorphic allochthons in Ofoten, including rocks of the Narvik, Evenes, Bogen, and Niingen Groups, are all at kyanite grade, supporting recent interpretations which on structural grounds concluded that the metamorphic peak outlasted stacking of these allochthons. A proposed correlation of the Evenes Group with the Middle Ordovician-Lower Silurian Balsfjord Supergroup implies that this stacking and associated kyanite-grade metamorphism are post-early Silurian and are related to the Scandian phase of the Caledonian orogeny. M. G. Steltenpohl & J. M. Bartley, Department of Geology, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, North Carolina 27514, USA. Our mapping, structural analysis, and petro ultramafic rocks of the Narvik Group, which are graphic studies in Ofoten have concentrated on presently at kyanite grade (Foslie 1941, 1949, the structural and metamorphic development of Gustavson 1966, 1972, Hodges 1982a, Tull et al. the Caledonian nappe stack.

Iceland, Norway & Faroes
Port Handbook Chapter A - The Baltic Chapter B - United Kingdom & Ireland Chapter C - Atlantic Europe Chapter D - Iceland, Norway & Faroes Chapter E - Associated Members Copyright 2021 Cruise Europe Word of the chairman Matching cruise industry growth and cruise port capacities Cruise Europe and its more than 100 member ports between Gibraltar in the South, Kirkenes in the North and Lulea in the Baltic still has the potential for growth. Only 75% of the potential cruise ports along the Atlantic coast are members; also one has to include the potential of the cruise ports in Greenland and the area east of the North Cape. The tourist organisations of the ports, the regions, the countries can help as members to make Cruise Europe stronger in marketing the destination Northern Europe to the cruise lines. The aim for Cruise Europe is to match the ongoing growth of the cruise industry in offering better infrastructure in the member ports, which means more cruise terminals, or to point out the diversity of the many destinations and attractions in Northern Europe. Cruise Europe has to open a dialogue with the cruise lines with the intention to spread the growing number of cruise ships and the even bigger cruise passenger capacities over more ports, over more cruise areas, over more countries. The success of the Baltic is also possible in the areas of West Europe, of UK & Ireland and of Norway and Iceland. Cruise lines have to be convinced that all four cruise areas in Northern Europe have equal attractions and many Captain Michael McCarthy good ports to host the growing cruise fleet. -
Geochemical Investigations of Northern Norwegian Fjord Sediments – Sources and Spatial Variability of Marine and Terrigenous Components
Faculty of Science and Technology Department of Geology Geochemical investigations of northern Norwegian fjord sediments – Sources and spatial variability of marine and terrigenous components — Lea Philine Canzler Master thesis in Marine Geology and Geophysics (GEO-3900) May 2016 Abstract Fjords represent unique coastal marine environments with high sedimentation rates. They can be used for intensive investigations focusing on geochemical, mineralogical, biological, and sedimentological processes. In this study I investigate 42 surface sediment samples from the outer and inner parts of the Vestfjord, Ofotfjord, Tysfjord and tributary fjord arms in northern Norway. Samples were analysed for their bulk elemental composition, grain size distribution, and total carbon and nitrogen contents (Ctot, Ntot). Furthermore, total organic and inorganic carbon and nitrogen concentrations (Corg, Cinorg, Norg and Ninorg) as well as the carbon and nitrogen isotopes (δ13C, δ15N) were analysed. The measurements were performed to identify geochemical proxies for the contribution of terrestrial organic matter (TOM) versus marine organic matter (MOM) into the fjords. The results indicate a sedimentary environment characterized by an overall dominant contribution of MOM compared to the relatively small input of terrestrial derived material. The extremely high supply of MOM is presented by 13 Corg/Norg ratios ranging between 6 and 10, stable carbon isotope values (δ Corg) between -24‰ 15 and -21‰, and stable organic nitrogen (δ Norg) signatures that vary between 4.7‰ and 6.9‰. The terrigenous material content is in general extraordinary low, and TOM increases from the outer part of the Vestfjord towards the innermost fjord parts of the Ofotfjord and Tysfjord. A 13 15 correlation between δ Corg and δ Norg and the Corg/Norg ratios indicates high influences of marine derived OM. -

Høringsuttalelse fra Naturvernforbundet i Troms SALMAR FARMING AS - SØKNAD OM UTVIDELSE AV AKVAKULTURTILLATELSE FOR MATFISK AV LAKS OG ØRRET PÅ LOKALITET 34137 - SKÅRLIODDEN I LENVIK KOMMUNE Vi viser til søknad om utvidelse av akvakulturtillatelsen for oppdrett av laks og ørret ved Skårliodden i Malangen. Det er søkt om en økning av maksimalt tillatt biomasse (MTB) fra 3600 tonn til 6000 tonn. Naturvernforbundet krever med dette at søknaden avslås. Det vil være uansvarlig å tillate en økning av biomassen på denne lokaliteten som har hatt vedvarende problemer med lakselus helt fra starten av. Lokaliteten ligger i vandringsveien for utvandrende smolt fra Målselva, og mindre enn 10 kilometer fra grensen for nasjonal lakseford, Malangen. Vi vil gjøre oppmerksom på at Mattilsynets regionkontor så sent som i April i år avslo en omsøkt volumøkning på 6 % med henvisning til lusesituasjonen på Skårliodden. Mattilsynets hovedkontor opprettholdt senere avslaget etter klage fra Salmar, med samme begrunnelse. Dette er informasjon som må tillegges avgjørende betydning, og være relevant ved vurdering av den omsøkte kapasitetsøkning - som nå er på 67.7 %. Vi kan ikke se at søker, Salmar, har opplyst om disse forhold i sin søknad. En søknad om kapasitetsøkning på denne lokaliteten kan etter vår oppfatning ikke behandles uten en uavhengig konsekvensutredning. Tiltaket har utvilsomt vesentlige virkninger for miljø, og må konsekvensutredes. En konsekvensutredning må belyse den samlede belasting på fjordmiljø og kjemisk tilstand for hele Ytre Malangen, da det er sumvirkningen av flere akvakulturtillatelser som er gitt i dette området som er avgjørende for tilstanden i fjordens økosystem.
