  • Mussel Margaritifera Margaritifera (Linnaeus) (Bivalvia, Margaritiferidae) in Norway
    Fauna norvegica 2008 Vol. 26/27: 3-14. ISSN: 1502-4873 Distribution, status and threats of the freshwater pearl mussel Margaritifera margaritifera (Linnaeus) (Bivalvia, Margaritiferidae) in Norway Dag Dolmen and Einar Kleiven Dolmen D and Kleiven E. 2008. Distribution, status and threats of the freshwater pearl mussel Margaritifera margaritifera (Linnaeus) (Bivalvia, Margaritiferidae) in Norway. Fauna norvegica 26/27: 3-14. The distribution of Margaritifera margaritifera (Linnaeus) in Norway is mainly along the coast and in the lowland. Based on a questionnaire sent to county governors’ offices and municipal administra- tions in Norway, about 430 former and existing localities have been recorded, of which about 300 are still-existing. However, the real number is probably more than twice as large. Central Norway has the highest number of documented sites. The northernmost locality is at Berlevåg (Finnmark) at 70°50’N lat., and the highest verified record is near Snåsa (Central Norway) at 472 m a.s.l. The great majority of localities are associated with Cambro-Silurian volcano-sedimentary rocks or situated below the postglacial marine limit, i.e. in areas not too poor in calcium. The species is an early immigrant, and a landlocked population in Central Norway has probably existed since 8900 14C-yr B.P. The pearl mussel has become extinct during the past few decades at as many as 30% of its localities, mostly due to urbanisation and pollution. There is a high correlation between the density of people in a county (or the proportion of cultivated land) and the “density” of extinct pearl mussel populations (r=0.91).

MEYER & LEIF ROGER STØRSETH Korneliussen, A., McEnroe, S. A., Nilsson, L.P., Schiellerup, H., Gautneb, H., Meyer, G.B. & Størseth, L.R. 2000: An overview of titanium deposits in Norway. Norges geologiske undersøkelse Bulletin 436, 27-38 Titanium deposits in Norway are of three major types: igneous, metasomatic and metamorphic. The igneous deposits are composed of ilmenite, magnetite and apatite in various proportions and occur in geological provinces of different ages, and some have a metamorphic overprint. The other major Ti ore-type is the rutile-bearing eclogites in western Norway that formed during the Caledonian high-pressure metamorphism of predominantly Proterozoic basic igneous rocks. The third Ti ore-type is the Proterozoic rutile-bearing, scapolitised and albitised rocks in the Bamble region of South Norway. Norwegian Ti mineral resources are large. The Egersund province in southernmost Norway is by far the most significant. This province includes the Tellnes ilmenite deposit which is in operation, as well as large volumes of other low-grade ilmenite ores. The annual ilmenite production at Tellnes, ~550,000 t. ilmenite, is 6-7 % of the total mine production of Ti minerals in the world, and Tellnes alone has approximately 12 % of the world’s resources of ilmenite. Mineralogy is the overall factor influencing the economic significance of Ti deposits, defining the quality of the Ti mineral product that can be produced. Grainsize, mineral intergrowths and mineral chemistry are a reflection of the geological environment and later conditions of the ore-forming process.

  • Trondheim Natural Radiocarbon Measurements Iv Reidar Nydal, Knut Lovseth, Kari E
    [RADIOCAxrow, Vor.. 6, 1964, P, 280-2901 TRONDHEIM NATURAL RADIOCARBON MEASUREMENTS IV REIDAR NYDAL, KNUT LOVSETH, KARI E. SKULLERUD, and MARIANNE HOLM Radiological Dating Laboratory, Norwegian Institute of Technology, Trondheim, Norway INTRODUCTION This date list covers mainly the datings done in 1962 and 1963 and is therefore a continuation of our last date list (Trondheim III). Counter design-The major number of the samples were measured in a counter with a background of 3.50 counts/min and a recent standard net count of 14.20 counts/min. Some of the samples were measured in the small counter described earlier (Nydal, 1962). This counter has, however, been used mainly in experiments during the past few years. Pretreatment and purification-In pretreatment of samples and purification of C02, we have mainly followed our previous procedure (Trondheim III). Calculation-All dates are calculated in both B.P. and A.D., B.C. scale. In the B.P. scale all dates are calculated from the year 1950, taken as "present". The C14 half-life used is 5568 yr; its standard deviation ± 30 yr is not included in the standard deviation (la) of the dating results. The NBS recent standard is 95% of the C14 activity in the oxalic acid, and has been applied since 1960. Most of the samples are measured for isotopic fractionation, and a correc- tion in the age is applied for deviations more than 17cc from the observed mean value in a large number of measurements. The limit of error in the fractiona- tion analysis is ca. ± 1%c, and there are possibilities for a maximum error of 30 yr in the age of the samples.

  • Stratigraphy and Sedimentology of Middle to Upper Pleistocene Sediments in the New Grødeland Borehole at Jæren, SW Norway
    Stratigraphy and sedimentology of Middle to Upper Pleistocene sediments in the new Grødeland borehole at Jæren, SW Norway JURAJ JANOCKO, JON Y. LANDVIK, EILIV LARSEN & HANS PETTER SEJRUP Janocko, J., Landvik, J. Y., Larsen, E. & Sejrup, H. P.: Stratigraphy and sedimentology of Middle to Upper Pleistocene sediments in the new Grødeland borehole at Jæren, SW Norway. Norsk Geologisk Tidsskrift, Vol. 77, pp. 87-100. Oslo 1997. ISSN 0029-196X. The new Grødeland borehole penetrates 124.5 m of Pleistocene sediments at the coast of Jæren. Amino-acid analysis suggests that the succession is of Saalian to Weichselian age. Six major units dominated by tills, glaciomarine and marine deposits were recovered: Unit l rests on crystalline bedrock and comprises 42 m of subglacial till. Unit 2 comprises silty and sandy sediments deposited in a glaciomarine environment, grading into normal marine and back to glaciomarine conditions before deposition of the overlying till (unit 3). Unit 3 is 32 m thick subglacial till. Unit 4 was deposited in a shallow glaciomarine environment. The succession is capped by the uppermost subglacial till (unit 5) of assumed Early Weichselian age, and a Holocene beach deposit. The stratigraphy is compared with the classic results fr om the Grødeland coring carried out at this site in i874.

  • Tendering of Passenger Rail Traffic in Norway
    Tendering of passenger rail traffic in Norway Rail passenger service tender 1: «Sør» Overview of current services and traffic • Sørlandsbanen line • Jærbanen line • Arendalsbanen line Rail passenger service tender 1: «Sør» The tender consists of three passenger rail products: • Sørlandsbanen line: long-distance train services between Oslo Central Station and Stavanger Central Station • Jærbanen line: local train services between Egersund and Stavanger Central Station • Arendalsbanen line: local train services/shuttle between Arendal and Nelaug, corresponding with Sørlandsbanen. Sørlandsbanen line connects the counties of Rogaland, Vest-Agder, Aust- Agder and parts of Telemark/Buskerud to the capital area of Oslo. Stavanger and the surrounding area is the third largest metropolitan area in the country with a total population of approximately 310.000 people. Being the main petroleum city of Norway, the Stavanger metropolitan area has seen a major population increase over the last 30 years. This has led to considerable investments in the development of local train services between Egersund and Stavanger (Jæren region) using the brand name “Jærbanen” (Jæren railway). The counties of Vest-Agder and Aust-Agder are commonly known as Sørlandet (the South Country). Hence the name “Sørlandsbanen” (Southern railway) for the route between Oslo and Stavanger. Kristiansand is the main city of Sørlandet. The Kristiansand area has a popu- lation of approximately 135.000. Arendal is the second largest city in Sørlandet, with approximately 84.000 inhabitants in the city and the surrounding area. The services on the Arendalsbanen line connect the Arendal area with the long-distance ser- vices on Sørlandsbanen. 2 · Tendering of passenger rail traffic in Norway There are large passenger flows from the Kristiansand and Stavanger regions, and from Telemark, to and from the Oslo region.

If a Contracting Party does have information available that is relevant to these fields (for example from a national format Ecological Character Description) it may, if it wishes to, include information in these additional fields. 1 - Summary Summary The Site consists of several sub-sites, and cover an extensive area alongside the south-west coast of Norway. Ramsar areas are surrounded by farmland, which is characteristic for an open and flat landscape in this part of Norway. The Site is mainly characterized by the marine nature types along the beaches, but also has some inland lakes and mires. The marine areas are dominated by sand, mud, pebble or stone shores, with large areas of dune-systems.

  • Earth Analog for Martian Magnetic Anomalies: Remanence Properties of Hemo-Ilmenite Norites in the Bjerkreim-Sokndal Intrusion, Rogaland, Norway
    Journal of Applied Geophysics 56 (2004) 195–212 www.elsevier.com/locate/jappgeo Earth analog for Martian magnetic anomalies: remanence properties of hemo-ilmenite norites in the Bjerkreim-Sokndal intrusion, Rogaland, Norway S.A. McEnroea,b,*, L.L. Brownb, Peter Robinsona,b aGeology Survey of Norway, Trondheim, N7491, Norway bDepartment of Geosciences, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, Ma, 01003, USA Abstract To explain the very large remanent magnetic anomalies on Mars, which no longer has a global magnetic field, it is important to evaluate rocks on Earth with the necessary properties of high natural remanent magnetization (NRM) and coercivity. Here, we describe a possible analog from the 230-km2 930 Ma Bjerkreim-Sokndal layered intrusion (BKS) in Rogaland, Norway. In the layered series of the BKS, fractional crystallization of jotunitic magma was punctuated by influx and mixing of more primitive magmas, producing six megacyclic units, each typically with early plagioclase-rich norites, intermediate hemo-ilmenite-rich norites and late magnetite norites with subordinate near end-member ilmenite. Following each influx, the magma resumed normal crystallization and, following the last, near the base of Megacyclic Unit IV, crystallization continued until norites gave way to massive fayalite-magnetite mangerites and quartz mangerites in the upper part of the intrusion. The Megacycles are marked on a regional aeromagnetic map by remanent-controlled negative anomalies over ilmenite norites and induced positive anomalies over magnetite norites and mangerites. A prominent negative anomaly (with amplitude À13,000 nT in a high- resolution helicopter survey, down to À27,000 nT below background in ground magnetic profiles) occurs over the central part of Megacyclic Unit IV.

Ogna ligger i Sør-Rogaland i kommunene Hå og Bjerkreim. Vassdragets totale nedbørfelt er 117 km2 hvorav 39 km2 er overført fra Helgåvassdraget til Hetland kraftstasjon. Fiskebestandene i Ogna utgjøres av laks, aure og sjøaure, ål og trepigget stingsild. Den totale lakseførende strekning er ca 30 km. Laksebestanden i Ogna var i 1970- og 1980-årene påvirket av forsuring, og vannkvaliteten var periodevis marginal for overlevelse av laks. På 1980-tallet er det meldt om fiskedød nesten hvert år, hovedsakelig fra strekningen nedenfor kraftstasjonen. I 1971 ble Ogna inkludert i et vannkjemisk måleprogram (elveserien) ved daværende Fiskeforskningen ved Direktoratet for vilt og ferskvannsfisk. 11982 ble den vannkjemiske overvåkingen av Ogna utvidet, og ialt tre stasjoner inngikk i måleprogrammet.
