Óskarsson (Iceland). The total number of participants was 15, representing Norway (8), Iceland (5) the Faroese (1), and Greenland (1). The objective of the meeting was to develop further and final- ize the work developed over the initial two meetings and represented by the ToRs. For the initial integrated assessment of Norwegian Sea (ToR a) it was decided to use a fairly straightforward three step operational approach consisting of: 1. Data assem- bly, 2. Data analysis, 3. Interpretation. Hence, relevant time-series of ecological, envi- ronmental, biological and fishery related variables were compiled, described and analysed (ToR b). The temperature of the Norwegian Sea is currently slightly above the normal and has had a downward trend in recent years after a peak in 2007. The biomass of mesozooplankton had a downward trend during 2003–2009, followed by an increasing trend in the subsequent period. In 2015, there was a reduction in the zooplankton level compared to 2014. The length-at-age of herring has been increasing in the last years and is negatively related to stock density. For mackerel on the other hand, there was a strong decreasing trend in length-at-age since 2007, in coherence with a strong density-dependent growth in the stock. A multivariate analysis was performed on all the time-series collected during the recent three years. The principal component analysis shows a shift in the first principal component from high values before 1995 and a sharp decline until 2010. The causes for these changes are not fully understood, but they are related to changes in the overall circulation. The work in WGINOR indicates that the Norwegian Sea ecosystem alternates between bottom up and top down forcing. Number of relevant publications in this field, both by WGINOR members and others, have appeared during the last three years and are addressed in the WGINOR report adequately. Around fivefold increase in beaked redfish biomass in Norwegian Sea has taken place in the last 20 years. The breeding populations of kittiwake, Atlantic puffin, and guillemot in seabird colonies along the Norwegian coast has declined since monitor- ing started in 1980, while the causes are not completely known. The potentially large biomass of mesopelagic fauna (fish, cephalopods, shrimps, and jellyfish) remains unassessed. Regarding the status of marine mammals, the abundance of hooded seals in the Greenland Sea area, which feed to some extent in the Norwegian Sea, has been at low level following a major decline until 1980s. Similar, abundance of large baleen whales has not recovered to the pre-commercial whaling period, even if recent sur- veys suggest changes in either abundance or distribution. Multispecies model (Enac-model) using a Management Strategy Evaluation (MSE) approach was used to study potential multispecies management of the three domi- nant pelagic fish stocks in the Norwegian Sea (ToR c). The main conclusions were that density-dependent growth can increase the simulated Spawning-Stock Biomass (SSB) and the Total Allowable Catch (TAC), and the results should be considered in relation to potential multispecies management of the stocks. Also, the observed intra- guild predation among the stocks needs to be considered because following precau- tionary approach for one stock

    S. M. Reckinger, et al., Int. J. Comp. Meth. and Exp. Meas., Vol. 7, No. 2 (2019) 142–153 THE EFFECT OF NUMERICAL PARAMETERS ON EDDIES IN OCEANIC OVERFLOWS: A LABORATORY AND NUMERICAL STUDY SHANON M. RECKINGER, THOMAS H. GIBSON, FRED M. HOHMAN, THERESA J. MORRISON, SCOTT J. RECKINGER & MATEUS CARVALHO Fairfield University, United States of America. ABSTRACT Overflows in the ocean occur when dense water flows down a continental slope into less dense ambient water. It is important to study idealized and small-scale models, which allow for confidence and control of parameters. The work presented here is a direct qualitative and quantitative comparison between physical laboratory experiments and lab-scale numerical simulations. Physical parameters are varied, including the Coriolis parameter, the inflow density, and the inflow volumetric flow rate. Laboratory experiments are conducted using a rotating square tank and high-resolution camera mounted on the table in the rotating reference frame. Video results are digitized in order to compare directly to numeri- cal simulations. The MIT General Circulation Model (MITgcm), a three-dimensional ocean model, is used for the direct numerical simulations corresponding to the specific laboratory experiments. It was found that the MITgcm was not a good match to laboratory experiments when physical parameters fell within the high eddy activity regime. However, a more extensive resolution study is needed to understand this fully. The MITgcm simulations did provide a good qualitative and quantitative match to laboratory experiments run in a low eddy activity regime. In all cases, the MITgcm simulations had more eddy activity than the laboratory experiments.

  • Bailes Final Wh
    Centre For Small State Studies Publication Series University of Iceland Occasional Paper 2-2009 DOES A SMALL STATE NEED A STRATEGY? Alyson JK Bailes Faculty of Political Science University of Iceland Abstract In modern conditions the word 'strategy' is increasingly used, by both nations and institutions, to refer to a published declaration of policy intent covering a wide range of security challenges. The importance of a strategy varies according to the scale of a country's problems, including the difficulties of reaching internal consensus. It may be designed to preserve the nation by indirect as well as direct means, for instance by embracing the programme of a potential protecting power or institution. Small states are more likely to have to employ this tactic but may also pay a higher price of adaptation for the cover they gain. A test-case study of the five Nordic states shows that all publish the equivalent of a comprehensive strategy (though not in a single document) and all echo the strategies of major European institutions. In some cases the instrumental logic of the strategy, and the willingness to adjust it to changing problems and opportunities, is clearer than others. The more indirect and instrumental the strategy becomes, however, the greater the risk that public understanding and 'buy-in' may lag behind the reasoning of the élite. 1. Aims of this Paper This paper has two aims: first, to re-examine the concept of state ‘strategy’ from an empirical standpoint, reflecting current international practice and focusing especially on the possible dichotomy of 'deep' and 'declared' strategies (as defined below); and secondly, to apply the resulting analysis – expressed as a critical path for state choices – to the particular predicament of ‘small’ states.

Here we examine 6 months of under-ice zooplankton observations from the N-ICE2015 expedition (January to June 2015) in the Nansen Basin and on the Yermak Plateau north of Svalbard. Stratified sampling in the water column was done with MultiNet during the entire expedition, and sampling in the upper 5 m below sea ice was performed during April-May by divers using a Edited by: hand-held net. Hydrographic conditions were dominated by northward-flowing warm Anne Helene Solberg Tandberg, and saline Atlantic Water at intermediate depth, and southward-flowing cold Polar University Museum of Bergen, Norway Surface Water in the upper 100 m.
