Resultatene er lagt fram i form av kart og tabeller, samt tekst som beskriver naturtypenes økologi. Arealdekkende naturtypekart etter NiN generaliserer og gjengir de økologiske strukturene i landskapet. Slike kart kan dekke mange formål, men i denne sammenheng er det særlig to som har vært viktig: 1) kartene kan inngå i opplæringen av nye kartleggere og 2) de kan inngå i forskningen som skjer på Finse. To områder på Finse i Vestland er kartlagt etter Natur i Norge sin veileder for kartlegging i målestokk 1:5000 (Bryn m.

  • Stadnamn I Luster Kommune I Indre Sogn
    Universitetet i Bergen Institutt for lingvistiske, litterære og estetiske studiar Stadnamn i Luster kommune i Indre Sogn Ein prototypebasert analyse av namnelandskapet i eit vestlandsk jordbruksdistrikt Samuele Mascetti NOLISP350 Mastergradsoppgåve i nordisk Vår 2017 Føreord Å skriva denne masteravhandlinga har vore for meg fyrst og fremst ei personleg fordjuping i tankegangen og levemåten typiske for både staden eg kjem frå og staden eg har valt å bu på: Alpane og Vestlandet. Eg er fødd og oppvaksen i ei lita fjellbygd ved Comosjøen i nordlege Lombardia fylke i Nord-Italia, ved grensa mot Sveits. Det alpine innsjølandskapet har mykje til felles med fjordlandskapet på Vestlandet: Høge, bratte fjell som stuper i vatnet, djupe og grisgrendte dalar, dårlege vegar og mykje, mykje regn. Kulturlandskapet er òg nokso likt: Jordbruket var lenge hovudnæringa i det alpine området, og stølinga spelte ei sentral rolle i den tradisjonelle gardsordninga. Det norditalienske setersystemet er nesten identisk med det vestlandske og dei fleste bruka har to setrar: Heimesetra (kalla munt, ‘fjell’ på lombardisk), som ligg om lag mellom 600 og 1400 moh. og er nytta vår og haust, og langsetra (kalla alp, ‘høgfjell’ på lombardisk), som ligg om lag mellom 1500 og 2500 moh. og er nytta om sumaren. Dei fleste bygdene ligg mellom 200 og 600 moh., so begge setrar er utstyrde med stølshus, sidan dei ligg fleire timar gonge frå heimehusa. Som gutunge var eg mang ein sumar på selet hans bestefar og fekk oppleva den gamle stølstradisjonen, som diverre alt då var døyande: Dei fleste gardsbrukarane la driftene ned pga. den uoverkomelege økonomiske sentraliseringa i jordbrukspolitikken til EU-landa, som trengte dei småe produsentane ut til fordel for dei store industrialiserte bruka i låglandet kring storbyane.
