  • New Funding for Wittgenstein's House in Skjolden
    Press release: New funding for Wittgenstein’s house in Skjolden As one of the major sponsors, Luster Sparebank has given a grant of NOK 1 million to the project. This is in addition to NOK 1 million which has been funded by the county of Sogn og Fjordane, in which Wittgenstein’s house is located. There is still a long way for full funding, but with positive response from other key sponsors who will be contacted during the spring, the restoration of Wittgenstein’s house in its original surroundings can already commence within 2017. The renowned Austrian philosopher and engineer Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889- 1951) is not very well known in Norway. However, every year people from around the world come to visit the site where he built the house in 1913, where he sought solitude to work without distractions. Here, Wittgenstein conducted works that delivered important contributions, not just to language and philosophy of mind, but also to mathematics and studies in aerodynamics. Today, the house is located near the centre of Skjolden and is being used as a holiday house. The relocation and restoration of the house to its original architectural form, will create a historic and cultural heritage site in Sogn og Fjordane, and become an international tourist attraction. Upon completion, the Foundation intends to inaugurate the house with its key stakeholders and friends representing Norwegian and international universities with a launch event in June 2019. The project has received significant interest from across the world. A press delegation from Austria will visit the house in Skjolden in May 2017.

Referat: Miljøfaglig Utredning AS har utført en konsekvensutredning på tema Landskap i forbindelse Fylkesmannen i Oppland og Fylkesmannen i Sogn og Fjordane sitt oppdrag med å utrede vern i Breheimen-Mørkridsdalen. Utredningen vurderer konsekvensene for en videreføring og utvikling av landskapet innenfor utredningsområdet ved et eventuelt vern. Verneplanene opererer med tre alternativer i tillegg til 0-alternativet. Alternativ 1A opererer med nasjonalpark som hovedverneform og med mindre delområder vernet som landskapsvernområder og naturreservater. Alternativ 1B opererer også med nasjonalpark som hovedverneform og delområder vernet som landskapsvernområder, men uten naturreservater. Alternativ 2 opererer med landskapsvern som eneste verneform. Konsekvensene for en videreføring og/eller utvikling av dagens landskap innenfor utredningsområdet vurderes for hvert av de fire alternativene med referanse til dagens situasjon. Utredningen foreslår avbøtende tiltak under alle alternativ som kan redusere de negative konsekvensene av vernet.

Etter en faretruende sterk stigning i vassføringen utover dagen og kvelden fØr, nådde flommen sitt hØydepunkt litt etter midnatt. Denne flom var betydelig større enn l898-flommen, idet vannstanden i hovedelva mange st.eder sto mer enn en meter hØyere denne gang. Ødeleggelsene var kolossale. I denne rapport har vi forsøkt å samle flest mulig opplysninger om årsakene til - og forlØpet av - flommen. Det er således de meteorologiske og hydro­ logiske forhold det er lagt vekt på.

    1 Holocene alluvial fan evolution, Schmidt-hammer exposure-age dating 2 and paraglacial debris floods in the SE Jostedalsbreen region, southern 3 Norway 4 5 6 JOHN A. MATTHEWS, LINDSEY J. MCEWEN, GERAINT OWEN AND SIETSE 7 LOS 8 9 10 Matthews, J.A., McEwen, L.J., Owen, G. & Los, S. 2020. Holocene alluvial fan 11 evolution, Schmidt-hammer exposure-age dating and paraglacial debris floods in the 12 SE Jostedalsbreen region, southern Norway. Boreas, Vol. 13 14 The evolution of several subalpine alluvial fans SE of the Jostedalsbreen ice cap was 15 investigated based on their geomorphology and Schmidt-hammer exposure-age dating 16 (SHD) applied to 47 boulder deposits on the fan surfaces. A debris-flood rather than 17 debris-flow or water-flow origin for the deposits was inferred from their morphology, 18 consisting of low ridges with terminal splays up to 100 m wide without lateral levees. 19 This was supported by fan, catchment, and boulder characteristics. SHD ages ranged 20 from 9480±765 to 1955±810 years. The greatest number of boulder deposits, peak 21 debris-flood activity and maximum fan aggradation occurred between ~9.0 and 8.0 22 ka, following regional deglaciation at ~9.7 ka. The high debris concentrations 23 necessary for debris floods were attributed to paraglacial processes enhanced by 24 unstable till deposits on steep slopes within the catchments. From ~8.0 ka, fan 25 aggradation became progressively less as the catchment sediment sources tended 26 towards exhaustion, precipitation decreased during the Holocene Thermal Maximum, 27 and tree cover increased.
