Geochemical Evidence for a Rift-Related Origin of Metadolerites Within the Senja Nappe, Troms, North Norwegian Caledonides: a Discussion Discussion Geochemical evidence for a rift-related origin of metadolerites within the Senja Nappe, Troms, north Norwegian Caledonides: a discussion R.

Bergh & Andresen (1987) have suggested correlation of the Senja Nappe (Troms District, North Norway) with Ordovician-Sihirian sequences of the Balsfjord Group which unconformably overlie mafic-ultra­ mafic rocks of the Lyngen Nappe.

Vol. 89, pp. 5-16. Trondheim 2009. ISSN 029-196X. Eight landscape types have been defined and spatially documented from a 40 000 km2 large area off Lofoten, Vesterålen and Senja in northern Norway. The area represents some of the most geologically diverse coast and offshore margin areas in Norway. The basis for the classification is an integrated, hierarchical system for terrestrial, coastal and marine nature types, presently being developed in Norway. This is the first broad-scale attempt to apply the new system in the marine domain. Detailed multibeam bathymetric data form the basis for 3D models of the seafloor, which have also been analysed using modelling and GIS tools.

  • 'The Senja Doctor': Developing Joint GP Services Among Rural Communities in Northern Norway
    PROJECT REPORT 'The Senja Doctor': developing joint GP services among rural communities in Northern Norway K Kehlet, IJ Aaraas National Center of Rural Medicine, University of Tromsø, Tromsø, Norway Submitted: 11 April 2014; Revised: 25 February 2015; Accepted: 1 April 2015; Published: 21 August 2015 Kehlet K, Aaraas IJ 'The Senja Doctor': developing joint GP services among rural communities in Northern Norway Rural and Remote Health 15: 3101. (Online) 2015 Available: http://www.rrh.org.au A B S T R A C T Senja, the second largest island in Norway, encompasses four municipalities. For decades the island has faced serious challenges concerning recruiting and retaining general practitioners (GPs). In 2001 the county medical officer suggested a plan for improvement of GP service based on inter-municipal collaboration. The plan was rejected by the three small and remote municipalities of Senja. In 2007, after further deterioration of the situation, one of the small municipalities initiated a process to establish a joint service. This was very similar to the one previously proposed by the county medical officer. Within the next few years all the municipalities gradually announced their interest in the development of Senjalegen – the Senja Doctor – an inter- municipal GP service. This has resulted in improved continuity of GP care to the population of Senja. In this article we present experiences and discuss effects of creating a robust professional environment securing support and guidance of young doctors. The importance of local involvement and ownership during development of a joint healthcare service is also discussed. Key words: district, GP services, intermunicipal, recruiting, retaining.

In addition, problems associated with outbreaks of disease were kept under control to a greater extent than in the past, as evidenced by a genuine decrease in reported, critical salmon diseases across the entire country.

  • LYSNESODDEN, SENJA Varsel Om Oppstart Av Detaljregulering
    Adressater iht adressseliste DERES REF: | VÅR REF: 10220882-01-PLAN-BREV-001 Tromsø, 16. mars 2021 LYSNESODDEN, SENJA Varsel om oppstart av detaljregulering I henhold til plan- og bygningslovens § 12-8 varsles det om at SalMar Farming AS setter i gang arbeid med detaljregulering for Lysnesodden, Senja kommune. Multiconsult er engasjert til å forestå planarbeidet. Hensikten med planarbeidet er å etablere en landbase knyttet til drift av nærliggende oppdrettsanlegg. Dette vil bl.a. omfatte fasiliteter knyttet til administrasjon, lager og havn. Området har tidligere vært opparbeidet med bebyggelse, kai og trafikkarealer. Planavgrensning Planområdet utgjør ca 35 daa, og er avgrenset som vist i kartskisse i vedlegg. Planområdet omfatter hele eller deler av gnr/bnr 92/1, 92/3, 92/6, 92/19, 92/23, 92/43, 92/48, 92/49, 92/55 og 92/70. Planstatus Areal innenfor angitt planavgrensning er i hovedsak regulert til fiskebruk, og noe er regulert til jord- og skogbruk og kjøreveg, i gjeldende reguleringsplan for Lysnes, vedtatt 15.11.1984. Arealformål i overordnet plan er tettbebyggelse, og i kommunens kystplan er formålet for sjøarealet flerbruksområde. Beskrivelse av planinitiativ I det foreløpige konseptet legges det til rette for ca. 750 m2 bebyggelse i en innledende fase, som også inkluderer molo og oppgradert kai. Planlagt utbygging kan komme til å skje i flere faser. Foreløpig planlagt byggehøyde er 10 meter. Planinitiativet åpner for alternative adkomstveier, som grunnlag for seinere valg. Se mer informasjon i dokumenter på nettside. Forhold til forskrift om konsekvensutredninger Det er vurdert at reguleringsarbeidet ikke utløser KU-plikt etter forskrift om konsekvensutredninger. Rådmannen har kvalitetssikret forslagsstillers vurdering og kommet til samme konklusjon.
