NORWAY - in Your Pocket 2 | 3 NORWAY - In Your Pocket 2 | 3 BE INSPIRED BY NORWAY TO HAVE AN ACTIVE HOLIDAY Walking from cabin to cabin in the mountains or going on a glacier walk is perhaps the best way to explore Norway. If you like cycling, there are lots of great routes to choose from, whether you prefer flat terrain or more challenging routes. There are lots of package trips including food and accommodation to choose from. There are also plenty of options for people who enjoy fishing. Try your hand at deepsea fishing, salmon fishing or freshwater fishing and you will have a good chance of landing a big fish. On a safari, you can see wild animals and birds at close range, including musk oxen, moose, eagles, whales and king crabs. Or how about a challenge like rafting down rapids, climbing or snowkiting? There are many customised trips to choose from in Norway – on foot, by bike, boat or car. They enable you to get the most out of your holiday. In winter, Norway has a wide range of alpine ski centres, both for beginners and more experienced skiers. Naturally, there are also opportunities for cross-country skiing trips on prepared, marked tracks. Winter is also the season for killer whale safaris, ice- climbing, dog sledding and reindeer sledding.

Rapporten presenterer et nytt utbredelseskart for spontan gran i Norge hvor forekomster i ytterkanten av hovedområdene bestående av småbestand, holt og enkelttrær er inkludert. Vanlig gran opptrer med spontane forekomster i alle norske fylker, regioner og landsdeler, fra kyst til høgfjell. Grandominert skog dekker i dag 32,4 mill. dekar. Spontan gran er så langt ikke blitt registrert utbredt i de ytre kyststrøk på Vestlandet, og i kyst- og fjordstrøk mellom Salten og Øst- Finnmark. Kulturgran og semi-spontan gran er imidlertid vanlig forekommende også her. Kulturskogarealene med gran som er etablert gjennom skogreisingen langs kysten de siste 70 år utgjør om lag 3 millioner dekar. Granas andel av stående volum i skogene er størst i Trøndelag og på Østlandet, og minst på Sørlandet, Vestlandet og i Nord-Norge.

De åpne buene i Femundsmarka er kulturminner. De ble i sin tid bygd og brukt som husvære for skogsarbeidere og fløtere. Noen av dem er også gamle seterbuer, andre ble satt opp som reine jakt- og fiskebuer. I dag eies de fleste av de åpne buene i Femundsmarka av Statskog. Statskog har som mål å bevare buene i sin opprinnelige form og i sin opprinnelige funksjon som enkle overnattingsplasser for folk som ferdes i marka. Buene holdes derfor åpne for allmennheten.

  • Measuring the Inaccurate: Causes and Consequences of Train Delays
    Summary: Measuring the inaccurate: Causes and consequences of train delays TØI Report 1459/2015 Author(s): Askill Harkjerr Halse, Vegard Østli and Marit Killi Oslo 2015, 71 pages Norwegian language In this report, we argue that the rich available data on train performance and railway infrastructure should be used to get precise measurements of economic relationships in railway management. As one such exercise, we first show how temporary speed reductions on railway links caused by low infrastructure quality affects running time and delays for Norwegian freight trains. Even though each speed reduction only adds about 44-50 seconds to running time, speed reductions still contribute to delay at the destination. Secondly, we show that delays has a negative effect on demand for passenger and freight trains services. The corresponding demand elasticity is lower than the one implied by willingness-to-pay studies, consistent with evidence from Great Britain. In is widely acknowledged in the transportation economics literature that more reliable transport time constitutes an economic benefit. In the presence of unreliability, individuals and firms adjust by taking costly measures like departing early or keeping a safety stock of goods. The ‘cost’ of train delays is therefore the foregone benefits that could have been achieved if all trains were running on time. Much of the existing literature on railway punctuality is based on optimization and/or simulation, calling for more empirical studies. In the innovation project PRESIS, funded by the Research Council of Norway and the Norwegian National Rail Administration, we have developed methods to survey reliability in the Norwegian rail sector.

  • Høringsuttalelse Til Forskrift Om Kommunalt Løypenett for Snøskuter I Bardu Kommune
    forum for natur og friluftsliv TROMS Bardu kommune Postboks 401 9365 Bardu 21. november 2017 Høringsuttalelse til forskrift om kommunalt løypenett for snøskuter i Bardu kommune Forum for natur og friluftsliv (FNF) Troms er kjent med at Bardu kommune har forskrift om kommunalt løypenett for snøskuter til offentlig høring. Vi har vært i kontakt med relevante natur- og friluftsorganisasjoner og ønsker å komme med innspill. FNF Troms stiller spørsmål ved prosessen og fraråder løype 3 over Leinavatn. Tidligere saksgang FNF Troms kjenner til tidligere saksgang hvor kommunal forskrift for snøskuterløyper i Bardu kommune ble vedtatt i sak 38/16, 22.06.16. Forskriften ble senere underkjent av settefylkesmannen i Finnmark etter klagesaksbehandling. FNF Troms var blant partene som påklagde forskriften. FNF Troms påklaget tidligere løype 3 (Ostu - Leinavatn – Gamas) og løype 4 (Altevatnet - nasjonalparkgrensa). Vi finner det riktig å fremheve at natur- og friluftsorganisasjonene ikke var mot alle løypene, men fant nevnte løyper særlig konfliktfulle hva angår friluftsliv, naturmangfold og landskap. I denne høringen er opprinnelig løype 4 tatt ut, mens løype 3 er noe redusert. Likevel er det foreslått skuterløype over hele Leinavatn (løype 3) inn til 100 meter fra svenskegrensa. Preget av hastverk FNF Toms stiller spørsmål ved prosessen rundt nåværende høringsrunde. I dokumentene knyttet til høringen kan vi lese at rådmannens vurdering fra 05.09.17 er at en løype inn over Leinavatn (løype 3) vil ha små sjanser for å bli godkjent. 07.09.17 vedtar et enstemmig planteknisk utvalg i Bardu kommune at Bardu kommune tar opp prosessen med kommunal forskrift, men at opprinnelig løype 3 (Leinavatn) med unntak av næringsdelen og løype 4 tas ut.

Normalt er dette NINAs rapportering til oppdragsgiver etter gjennomført forsknings-, overvåkings- eller utredningsarbeid. I tillegg vil serien favne mye av instituttets øvrige rapportering, for eksempel fra seminarer og konferanser, resultater av eget forsk- nings- og utredningsarbeid og litteraturstudier. NINA Rapport kan også utgis på annet språk når det er hensiktsmessig. NINA Kortrapport Dette er en enklere og ofte kortere rapportform til oppdragsgiver, gjerne for prosjekt med mindre arbeidsomfang enn det som ligger til grunn for NINA Rapport. Det er ikke krav om sammendrag på engelsk. Rapportserien kan også benyttes til framdriftsrapporter eller foreløpige meldinger til opp- dragsgiver. NINA Temahefte Som navnet angir behandler temaheftene spesielle emner. Heftene utarbeides etter behov og se- rien favner svært vidt; fra systematiske bestemmelsesnøkler til informasjon om viktige problemstil- linger i samfunnet. NINA Temahefte gis vanligvis en populærvitenskapelig form med mer vekt på illustrasjoner enn NINA Rapport. NINA Fakta Faktaarkene har som mål å gjøre NINAs forskningsresultater raskt og enkelt tilgjengelig for et større publikum. De sendes til presse, ideelle organisasjoner, naturforvaltningen på ulike nivå, politikere og andre spesielt interesserte. Faktaarkene gir en kort framstilling av noen av våre viktigste forsk- ningstema. Annen publisering I tillegg til rapporteringen i NINAs egne serier publiserer instituttets ansatte en stor del av sine viten- skapelige resultater i internasjonale journaler, populærfaglige bøker og tidsskrifter.

  • Norway Norway Is Considered the Most Scenic Country in Scandinavia and Offers a Wide Range of Land- Scapes
    Crossing Longfjell Bridge over Eidfjord Norway Norway is considered the most scenic country in Scandinavia and offers a wide range of land- scapes. Mighty glaciers created over millions of years numerous deep fjords and bays, so water will be our constant companion on the tour. More than ten times we are crossing by ferry one of the picturesque fjords and pass hundreds of water- falls and raging rivers. Again and again it goes from sea level up to the fells, as the plateaus of Norway are called. Dense forests are also on the program as one or the other island and skerry along the coast. Dozens of tunnels are carved in the rock, including the Laerdalstunnelen, with nearly 25 km the world’s longest road tunnel. With the Holmenkollen we visit the Mecca of the Nordic winter sports and cross Telemark, in this county the skiing was invented over 150 years ago. At Norway’s most famous waterfall Vor- ingsfossen we spend a night, over 180 meters the water plunges into the depths. And the Gei- rangerfjord and Norway’s best known mountain road Trollstigvegen are other musts on the tour before we are back in Oslo.
