  • Through the North Atlantic - from Scotland to Svalbard
    THROUGH THE NORTH ATLANTIC - FROM SCOTLAND TO SVALBARD There are few wilder, more magnificent and untouched places than the Arctic Islands of the North Atlantic! And no ships more suited than Ocean Atlantic for such a voyage. Join us for an early summer's cruise from Aberdeen to the lush green Shetland isles, the Faroe Islands small capital Tórshavn and the North Atlantic to the Arctic islands of Jan Mayen and Svalbard. We will travel north along with the migrating birds, and hopefully spot the polar bears hunting from the sea ice in the 24-hour daylight. The cruise starts in Aberdeen on the Scottish East Coast. Here we embark Albatros Expedition's vessel, the comfortable Ocean Atlantic, which is our home for the next 11 days. Our first stop is Smeerenburg and hopefully as far as Yttre Norskøya in the far cozy Lerwick on “main” Shetland, then we venture further north North west corner of Spitsbergen Island. Weather and ice to Tórshavn on the Faroe Islands. After a day at sea spotting for conditions will often dictate the course, but each landing with seabirds and whales we reach the enigmatic and isolated island Zodiac-boats will still be unique and adventurous. of Jan Mayen with its looming 2,200-meter high volcano of Beerenberg. We travel north with the spring and 24-hour The cruise does not have any special requirements for you as a daylight until we reach the snow-covered mountains of participant, but it is assumed that you are in good shape, agile Svalbard. Sea ice will still cover many fjords, but with an ice and good on your legs.

  • Western Spitsbergen, 2019
    Western Spitsbergen, July 2019. Four days, 13 species, including polar bear, bowhead whale, blue whale, Arctic fox. Jon Swenson My wife, brother- and sister-in-law planned a cruise to Svalbard Archipelago. They have “only” an average interest in mammals and birds, so we could not order a specialized mammal-oriented tour. I spoke with colleagues who conduct biological research on Svalbard, considered prices, and considered our interests. We chose a cruise with Hurtigruten along the west coast of Spitsbergen. My colleagues told me that a more designated, mammal-oriented cruise should include the eastern coast, which is more arctic and has more polar bears and seals, but it takes much longer and is considerably more expensive. Our ship, the M/S Nordstjernen, now taken out of service, on the west coast of Spitzbergen Island, Svalbard Archipelago. Our route along the western coast of Spitzbergen Island, Svalbard Archipelago. My colleagues and the personnel on the ship told me that seeing most mammals on Svalbard is “hit or miss”, but that chances to see walrus and seals were good. Therefore, to not be overly optimistic, I made a wish list that included four species; polar bear (50% chance on this cruise, I was told), Arctic fox (“seen sometimes, but especially in Barentsburg”), beluga (“not uncommon along the coast”), and walrus (“should see some”). I asked about blue whale, but this is rare, and bowhead whale, but this pelagic species is almost never seen. Even though this did not sound very promising, it turned out to be a productive and very successful trip for all of us.

  • The Ortelius Incident in the Hinlopen Strait—A Case Study on How Satellite-Based AIS Can Support Search and Rescue Operations in Remote Waters
    resources Case Report The Ortelius Incident in the Hinlopen Strait—A Case Study on How Satellite-Based AIS Can Support Search and Rescue Operations in Remote Waters Johnny Grøneng Aase 1,2 ID 1 Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies, University of Tasmania, Private Bag 129, Hobart, TAS 7001, Australia; [email protected] 2 Department of Research and Development, Norwegian Defence Cyber Academy, P.O. Box 800, Postmottak, NO-2617 Lillehammer, Norway; [email protected]; Tel.: +47-9285-2550 Received: 26 April 2017; Accepted: 24 July 2017; Published: 27 July 2017 Abstract: In this paper, Automatic Identification System (AIS) data collected from space is used to demonstrate how the data can support search and rescue (SAR) operations in remote waters. The data was recorded by the Norwegian polar orbiting satellite AISSat-1. This is a case study discussing the Ortelius incident in Svalbard in early June 2016. The tourist vessel flying the flag of Cyprus experienced engine failure in a remote part of the Arctic Archipelago. The passengers and crew were not harmed. There were no Norwegian Coast Guard vessels in the vicinity. The Governor of Svalbard had to deploy her vessel Polarsyssel to assist the Ortelius. The paper shows that satellite-based AIS enables SAR coordination centers to swiftly determine the identity and precise location of vessels in the vicinity of the troubled ship. This knowledge makes it easier to coordinate SAR operations. Keywords: tourism; polar; search and rescue; SAR; Arctic; Svalbard; AISSat-1; Ortelius 1. Introduction On Friday 3 June 2016 at 12:30 am local time, the tourist vessel Ortelius reported engine trouble in the vicinity of the Vaigatt Islands in the Hinlopen Strait.

Looking towards the future, the genetic diversity of these seeds will play a vital role in enabling agriculture to cope with climate change in the years to come, and thus ensuring our future food security. The genetic diversity of our past is indeed essential for our common future.
