  • The Regional Distribution of Zeolites in the Basalts of the Faroe Islands and the Significance of Zeolites As Palaeo- Temperature Indicators
    The regional distribution of zeolites in the basalts of the Faroe Islands and the significance of zeolites as palaeo- temperature indicators Ole Jørgensen The first maps of the regional distribution of zeolites in the Palaeogene basalt plateau of the Faroe Islands are presented. The zeolite zones (thomsonite-chabazite, analcite, mesolite, stilbite-heulandite, laumontite) continue below sea level and reach a depth of 2200 m in the Lopra-1/1A well. Below this level, a high temperature zone occurs characterised by prehnite and pumpellyite. The stilbite-heulan- dite zone is the dominant mineral zone on the northern island, Vágar, the analcite and mesolite zones are the dominant ones on the southern islands of Sandoy and Suðuroy and the thomsonite-chabazite zone is dominant on the two northeastern islands of Viðoy and Borðoy. It is estimated that zeolitisa- tion of the basalts took place at temperatures between about 40°C and 230°C. Palaeogeothermal gradients are estimated to have been 66 ± 9°C/km in the lower basalt formation of the Lopra area of Suðuroy, the southernmost island, 63 ± 8°C/km in the middle basalt formation on the northernmost island of Vágar and 56 ± 7°C/km in the upper basalt formation on the central island of Sandoy. A linear extrapolation of the gradient from the Lopra area places the palaeosurface of the basalt plateau near to the top of the lower basalt formation. On Vágar, the palaeosurface was somewhere between 1700 m and 2020 m above the lower formation while the palaeosurface on Sandoy was between 1550 m and 1924 m above the base of the upper formation.

  • Different Paths Towards Autonomy
    Háskóli Íslands Hugvísindasvið Sagnfræði Different paths towards autonomy: A comparison of the political status of the Faroe Islands and th Iceland in the first half of the 19 century Ritgerð til B. A.- prófs Regin Winther Poulsen Kt.: 111094-3579 Leiðbeinandi: Anna Agnarsdóttir Janúar 2018 Abstract This dissertation is a comparison of the political status of Iceland and the Faroe Islands within the Danish kingdom during the first half of the 19th century. Though they share a common history, the two dependencies took a radically different path towards autonomy during this period. Today Iceland is a republic while the Faroes still are a part of the Danish kingdom. This study examines the difference between the agendas of the two Danish dependencies in the Rigsdagen, the first Danish legislature, when it met for the first time in 1848 to discuss the first Danish constitution, the so-called Junigrundloven. In order to explain why the political agendas of the dependencies were so different, it is necessary to study in detail the years before 1848. The administration, trade and culture of the two dependencies are examined in order to provide the background for the discussion of the quite different political status Iceland and the Faroes had within the Danish kingdom. Furthermore, the debates in the Danish state assemblies regarding the re-establishment of the Alþingi in 1843 are discussed in comparison to the debates in the same assemblies regarding the re-establishment of the Løgting in 1844 and 1846. Even though the state assemblies received similar petitions from both dependencies, Alþingi was re-established in 1843, while the same did not happen with the Løgting in the Faroes.

  • Community-Based Whaling in the Faroe Islands
    LÖGMANSSKRIVSTOVAN Prime Minister´s Office INFORMATION MEMORANDUM Community-based whaling in the Faroe Islands May 2017 This memorandum presents a brief description of the sustainable and regulated use of small whales for food in the Faroe Islands. The Government of the Faroe Islands promotes openness and rational and informed discussion about whales and whaling. Everyone with an interest should be assured access to reliable and factual information on whale drives in the Faroe Islands. More comprehensive and up-to-date information is available on the official website (in English, German, Spanish and French) about whales and whaling in the Faroe Islands: www. whaling.fo. The Faroe Islands • The Faroe Islands are situated roughly half way between Scotland and Iceland and consist of 18 mountainous islands, 17 of which are inhabited by the population of around 49,000. As a self-governing nation under the sovereignty of the Kingdom of Denmark, the Government of the Faroes administers independently of Denmark all areas of self-government under Faroese legislation, including the conservation and management of fish and whale stocks within the 200- mile fisheries zone. The Faroe Islands have chosen not to be a part of the EU, but maintain bilateral trade agreements and bilateral fisheries agreements with the EU and other countries. Living off the sea • The Faroese economy is based largely on modern fishing and aquaculture industries, which produce high quality fish products for export. Traditional means of food production from local resources are an important supplement to the livelihoods of Faroe Islanders. These include mountain grazing sheep, coastal fishing for household use, limited catches of certain sea birds, and occasional catches of pilot whales and other small cetaceans.

  • European Public Law, Volume 9, Issue 2 # Kluwer Law International, 2003
    DENMARK The Position of Greenland and the Faroe Islands Within the Danish Realm Jùrgen Albñk Jensen* The Danish Realm consists of three separate parts ± Denmark, Greenland and the Faroe Islands. The population of Denmark is a little more than five million, whereas the populations of Greenland and the Faroe Islands are about 50,000 each. This fact alone indicates that Denmark is the dominant part of the Realm. On the other hand, both Greenland and the Faroe Islands are separate entities with their own culture and language, and ± for Greenland ± also their own ethnic origin as part of the Inuit people. It is obvious that this situation involves a great potential for conflict, and, although it has been possible until now to adapt the relationship between the three parts of the Realm to the changing circumstances so that major conflicts have been avoided, there has in recent years been a growing feeling of national identity in the two small parts of the realm ± especially in the Faroe Islands. The purpose of this article is to explain the position of the Faroe Islands and Greenland within the Danish Realm from a legal perspective. In the first part of the article, I will look at the historic relationship between Denmark and the two other parts of the Realm. In the second part of the article, I will discuss the details of the present constitutional arrangement between the three parts of the Realm, which can be characterized as a form of home rule for Greenland and the Faroe Islands within a unitary state.

  • Pitt, S. 1981. Some Brief Observations on the Geology of the Faroe Islands
    Some Brief Observations on the Geology of the Faroe Islands Sheila Pitts Summary Some recent exposures, recorded during a visit in 1972, are described. The basic geology is explained in part by summarising the work of the Danish Geological Survey (1970). The three series, of Palaeocene and Eocene age, are known as the Lower, Middle and Upper Basalt Series. Introduction The Faroe Islands are situated in the north Atlantic between Iceland, Norway and the Shetland Islands. They are a part of the North Atlantic Basalt Province, which includes Northern Ireland, western Scotland, the Faroes and Iceland, west Greenland and south Baffin, Jan Mayen and Spitzbergen. The Faroes form an elevated part of the Wyville-Thompson Ridge, an extinct area of the Mid-Atlantic ridge system, and their basalts are of Palaeocene and Eocene age (Rasmussen and Nue-Nygard, 1970). The landscape is typically "stepped" corresponding with lava flows, and the fjords and sounds show the NW-SE trend of the oceanic ridge, which continues as far as S.E. Iceland. During the Pleistocene the islands formed a centre of glacial erosion. They have an average altitude of 300m. rising to 882m., so altitude would have been a factor in initiating glaciation within moist Atlantic westerly winds. The maximum orientation of cirques is towards the N.E. as it is in Scotland. Geology and Topography Three basalt series, Lower Middle and Upper, form the major part of the islands (Fig.1). Most of the flows of the Upper and Lower series are separated by tuff layers of a characteristic rust brown colour.
