  • (ACO) in Large Scale Search and Rescue Operations in the High North - As Seen in a Norwegian Arctic Perspective
    Emnekode: Navn på kandidat: KL360E Remi Eirik Olsen Aerial unit coordination by an Aircraft Coordinator (ACO) in large scale search and rescue operations in the High North - as seen in a Norwegian Arctic perspective Dato: 08.06.2016 Totalt antall sider: 89 Abstract In the Norwegian Search and Rescue (SAR) system, there are two Joint Rescue Coordination Centres (JRCCs) responsible for the conduct of SAR operations. These are for the Northern and the Southern part of Norway situated in respectively Bodø and Stavanger. When a situation evolves far out to sea, or anywhere else for that matter, these two JRCCs will make use of whatever resources are available in order to save lives. At sea there have for many years been an established relationship between the responsible JRCC, and an On Scene Coordinator (OSC) responsible for the coordination of surface units in the SAR area. In the Norwegian Search and Rescue Region (SRR), a Norwegian Coast Guard vessel (NoCGV) will most often be appointed this OSC role. In the aftermaths of two ship cathastrophies in the late eighties/early nineties, one in the North Sea/Skagerrak, and one in the Baltic Sea, SAR officials in both Sweden, Finland and later Denmark, started to look into how coordination of aerial units could be improved. The result of these efforts were specific Aircraft Coordinator (ACO) procedures intended to provide both flight safety for, and SAR efficiency from, the participating SAR units (SRUs). These procedures were up until recently only approved for operational use by Denmark, Finland and Sweden. From 1 July 2016 the procedures are included in the new edition of the International Aeronautical and Maritime Search and Rescue (IAMSAR) manual.

This thesis constitutes a case study of the Costa Concordia disaster, in an attempt to identify behaviors among the evacuees that may have contributed in reducing the effectiveness of the evacuation procedures. Publicly available material – such as reports from the media, survivor accounts and scientific investigations – was critically analyzed, and current behavioral models were used to interpret the behaviors identified.

Introduction Welcome to the eighth edition of The Date-A-Base Book! As always, every entry has been cross-checked in Encyclopaedia Britannica and on official websites and other sources. This is not an easy process as there’s an awful lot of “disinformation” out there, and it’s definitely getting worse. Whenever there was doubt – which there frequently was – we’ve tried to go back to the original source. Even so, we advise you to double-check each date before using it, and satisfy yourself that it is 100% correct. If you come across any mistakes please let us know. We’ll post any corrections we hear about on the official ideas4writers blog: http://ideas4writers.wordpress.com As far as possible we’ve used New Style (NS) dates from the Gregorian calendar. Celebrities are notorious for knocking a few years off their ages. Wherever possible we’ve given both their real and claimed dates of birth, and noted which is which. Similarly, they don’t always go by their real names, so we’ve used the names by which they are most commonly known.
