E-mail corresponding author (Kim Senger): [email protected] The beginning of the Norwegian oil industry is often attributed to the first exploration drilling in the North Sea in 1966, the first discovery in 1967 and the discovery of the supergiant Ekofisk field in 1969. However, petroleum exploration already started onshore Svalbard in 1960 with three mapping groups from Caltex and exploration efforts by the Dutch company Bataaffse (Shell) and the Norwegian private company Norsk Polar Navigasjon AS (NPN). NPN was the first company to spud a well at Kvadehuken near Ny-Ålesund in 1961.

  • Arctic Environments
    Characteristics of an arctic environment and the physical geography of Svalbard - ‘geography explained’ fact sheet The Arctic environment is little studied at Key Stage Three yet it is an excellent basis for an all-encompassing study of place or as a case study to illustrate key concepts within a specific theme. Svalbard, an archipelago lying in the Arctic Ocean north of mainland Europe, about midway between Norway and the North Pole, is a place with an awesome landscape and unique geography that includes issues and themes of global, regional and local importance. A study of Svalbard could allow pupils to broaden and deepen their knowledge and understanding of different aspects of the seven geographical concepts that underpin the revised Geography Key Stage Three Programme of Study. Many pupils will have a mental image of an Arctic landscape, some may have heard of Svalbard. A useful starting point for study is to explore these perceptions using visual prompts and big questions – where is the Arctic/Svalbard? What is it like? What is happening there? Why is it like this? How will it change? Svalbard exemplifies the distinctive physical and human characteristics of the Arctic and yet is also unique amongst Arctic environments. Perceptions and characteristics of the Arctic may be represented in many ways, including art and literature and the pupil’s own geographical imagination of the place. Maps and photographs are vital in helping pupils develop spatial understanding of locations, places and processes and the scale at which they occur.

  • Iceland: an Exhibit in Special Collections
    Iceland: An Exhibit in Special Collections Iceland: An Exhibit in Special Collections July 10 through October 2017 With the Libraries’ acquisition of Chester Thordarson’s collection in the late 1940s came many titles in Icelandic and about Iceland. Guest exhibit curators Peter Gorman and Todd Michelson-Ambelang have drawn on the Thordarson Collection, as well as other holdings of Special Collections, Memorial Library, Mills Music Library, and the Wisconsin Historical Society, to illustrate Iceland’s natural history, folklore, literature, print culture, and religion. From 16th-century Icelandic Bibles to a recent “intimate portrait of Icelandic ice” by photographer Ian Van Coller, the exhibit affords a glimpse into Iceland’s stark landscape and rich culture and – we hope – encourages viewers to explore further the Libraries’ strong holdings about the land of fire and ice. Department of Special Collections 976 Memorial Library University of Wisconsin–Madison 728 State Street Madison, WI 57306 https://www.library.wisc.edu/specialcollections/ 1 Iceland: An Exhibit in Special Collections ATLANTIC PUFFINS As highlighted in the online Iceland Magazine, “The Atlantic Puffin, also known as the Common Puffin, is a species of sea-bird in the auk family that breeds in and around Iceland.” Its name in Icelandic is Lundi; the scientific name is Fratercula arctica. Although more than half of the world’s population of puffins live in Iceland, they are abundant from Newfoundland to Ireland and Scotland; the Maine ocean islands provide nesting sites for Atlantic puffins in the United States. One of our colleagues in Central Technical Services and Special Collections, Cindy Lundey (!) has adopted a 14- year-old puffin, Penelope by name, through Audubon Project Puffin in Maine.

  • First Record of Vulgarogamasus Immanis (Acari, Mesostigmata) in Svalbard

The gamasid mite community of Svalbard is amongst the best known of invertebrate groups of the archipelago due to recent revisions based on fresh sam− pling campaigns. Nonetheless, a hitherto unrecorded species of gamasid mite was recently found along the strandline in Barentsburg. This record brings the total gamasid mite inven− tory of Svalbard to 23 species. The current inventory of Svalbard is bedeviled with syn− onyms and misidentifications. Nevertheless, resolving these confusions and maintaining an accurate and updated species inventory is of prime importance in understanding the ecology of this region. Especially in a period of rapid environmental change. Key words: Arctic, Spitsbergen, Barentsburg, mite, Gamasida. Introduction Svalbard lies in the high Arctic between latitudes 74° N and 81° N and longi− tudes 10° E and 35° E, some 700 km north of the Norwegian mainland.

  • Xviith CENTURY
    1596. — Bear Island (Beeren Eylandt — Björnöja) is discovered by Barentz who killed a white bear there. Visited in 1603 by Stephen Bennett who called it Cherk IsL after his employer Sir F. Cherie, of the Russian Company. Scoresby visited it in 1822. It was surveyed in 1898 by A. G. Nathorst’s Swedish Arctic expedition. N 1596. — On June 17, W. Barentz and the Dutch, expedition in search of a N.-E. passage, sights West Spitzbergen. He called Groeten Inwick what is now Ice fjord (Hudson’s Great indraught in 1607) a name which was given to it by Poole in 1610. Barentz thought that Spitzbergen was part of Greenland. Barentz also discovered Prince Charles Foreland which he took to be an island and which was called Black point Isle by Poole in 1610. It was in 1612 that English Whalers named it after Prince Charles, son of James VI of Scotland, who became Charles I later. In 1607-1610, following the reports made by Hudson, of the Muscovy Company, a whaling industry was established in Spitzbergen. The scientific exploration of Spitz­ bergen has been going on ever since 1773, which was the year of Captain Phipps’s British expedition in which Horatio Nelson, took part. Explored by Sir Martin 丨Cònway.in 1896. By the Prince of Monaco and Doctor W. S. Bruce in 1906. By the Scottish Spitzbergen Syndicate of Edinburgh in 1920 and by the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge. 1598. ~• The Dutch admiral Jacob Cornel is van Necq, commanding the “ Mauritius” takes possession of Mauritius and pursues his voyage of Dutch colonisation to the Moluccas (Amboina) then to Te mate in 1601 with the “ Amsterdam ” and “ Utrecht ”，whilst the Hispano-Portuguese had settled at Tidor.

Cons. int. Explor. Mer, 188: 23—35. The circulation system of the Barents Sea is described. Warm water flows into the sea from the west and is gradually transformed into Arctic water, which then flows out of the sea, partly as surface currents, partly as dense bottom water. The climatic conditions of the Barents Sea are determined both by the variations in the inflow and by processes taking place in the sea itself. The great variations in temperature and salinity observed along standard sections crossing the inflowing water masses are examined, and possible explanations are discussed.

Introduction The main purpose of this paper is to present and discuss been the most intensively studied area, and several stan­ the rather marked climatic variations observed in the dard sections have been established in order to investi­ Barents Sea.
