Environment and Settlement: Ørland 600 BC – AD 1250 Environment Ingrid Ystgaard (red.) Ystgaard Ingrid and Settlement: Ørland 600 BC – AD 1250 During the Late Bronze Age, the Iron Age and early medieval period (c. 600 BC–AD 1250) settlement at Vik in the Ørland peninsula emerged, flourished, vanished and emerged ARCHAEOLOGICAL EXCAVATIONS AT VIK, anew. Local landscape and vegetation development, cross-regional cultural developments and global climatic events were of great significance to the farmer-fisher communities at ØRLAND MAIN AIR BASE Vik throughout these periods. In this book, results from the 2014–2016 archaeological excavations at Ørland main air base have been refined and developed. The 13 papers deal with landscape, vegetation Ingrid Ystgaard (red.) and environmental aspects related to the excavated settlement, as well as the spatial and social organization of the built environment. Building traditions, disposal practices, the form and representation of everyday objects, subsistence and landscape use are central to ØRLAND 600 BC AND SETTLEMENT: ENVIRONMENT the discussions. – AD 1250 ISBN 978-82-02-66483-1 www.cda.no NORDI C O P E N A CCESS S CHOL ARLY P U B LIS H I N G Human Environment_HARDCOVER.indd All Pages 29.11.2019 08:37:33 ENVIRONMENT AND SETTLEMENT: ØRLAND 600 BC - AD 1250 Archaeological excavations at Vik, Ørland main air base Ingrid Ystgaard (ed.) © 2019 Ingrid Ystgaard, Magnar Mojaren Gran, Ulf Fransson, Anders Romundset, Thomas R.

Et av kriteriene er en typeinndeling etter fysiske og kjemiske faktorer. Denne typeinndelingen danner grunnlaget for overvåkning og bestemmelse av økologisk referansetilstand for påvirkede vannforekomster. Vanndirektivet gir valg mellom å bruke en predefinert all-europeisk typologi (”System A”), eller å etablere en nasjonal typologi som forutsettes å gi bedre og mer relevant beskrivelse enn den all-europeiske, og som må inneholde visse obligatoriske elementer (”System B”).

  • Radiocarbon Dating and Its Applications in Quaternary Studies
    Eiszeitalter und Gegenwart 57/1–2 2–24 Hannover 2008 Quaternary Science Journal Radiocarbon dating and its applications in Quaternary studies *) IRKA HAJDAS Abstract: This paper gives an overview of the origin of 14C, the global carbon cycle, anthropogenic impacts on the atmospheric 14C content and the background of the radiocarbon dating method. For radiocarbon dating, important aspects are sample preparation and measurement of the 14C content. Recent advances in sample preparation allow better understanding of long-standing problems (e.g., contamination of bones), which helps to improve chronologies. In this review, various preparation techniques applied to typical sample types are described. Calibration of radiocarbon ages is the fi nal step in establishing chronologies. The present tree ring chronology-based calibration curve is being constantly pushed back in time beyond the Holocene and the Late Glacial. A reliable calibration curve covering the last 50,000-55,000 yr is of great importance for both archaeology as well as geosciences. In recent years, numerous studies have focused on the extension of the radiocarbon calibration curve (INTCAL working group) and on the reconstruction of palaeo-reservoir ages for marine records. [Die Radiokohlenstoffmethode und ihre Anwendung in der Quartärforschung] Kurzfassung: Dieser Beitrag gibt einen Überblick über die Herkunft von Radiokohlenstoff, den globalen Kohlenstoffkreislauf, anthropogene Einfl üsse auf das atmosphärische 14C und die Grundlagen der Radio- kohlenstoffmethode. Probenaufbereitung und das Messen der 14C Konzentration sind wichtige Aspekte im Zusammenhang mit der Radiokohlenstoffdatierung. Gegenwärtige Fortschritte in der Probenaufbereitung erlauben ein besseres Verstehen lang bekannter Probleme (z.B. die Kontamination von Knochen) und haben zu verbesserten Chronologien geführt.

    Fauna norvegica 2017 Vol. 37: 20-24. Short communication New records of the rare gastropods Erato voluta and Simnia patula, and first record of Simnia hiscocki from Norway Jon-Arne Sneli1 and Torkild Bakken2 Sneli J-A, and Bakken T. 2017. New records of the rare gastropods Erato voluta and Simnia patula, and first record of Simnia hiscocki from Norway. Fauna norvegica 37: 20-24. New records of rare gastropod species are reported. A live specimen of Erato voluta (Gastropoda: Triviidae), a species considered to have a far more southern distribution, has been found from outside the Trondheimsfjord. The specimen was sampled from a gravel habitat with Modiolus shells at 49–94 m depth, and was found among compound ascidians, its typical food resource. Live specimens of Simnia patula (Caenogastropoda: Ovulidae) have during the later years repeatedly been observed on locations on the coast of central Norway, which is documented by in situ observations. In Egersund on the southwest coast of Norway a specimen of Simnia hiscocki was in March 2017 observed for the first time from Norwegian waters, a species earlier only found on the south-west coast of England. Also this was documented by pictures and in situ observations. The specimen of Simnia hiscocki was for the first time found on the octocoral Swiftia pallida. doi: 10.5324/fn.v37i0.2160.

  • Strategic Plan 2011-2016: the NTNU University Museum -Revised Version 2014-2016
    Strategic Plan 2011-2016: The NTNU University Museum -revised version 2014-2016. Our history The NTNU University Museum has its origins in the Norwegian Royal Society of Sciences and Letters (DKNVS), which was founded in 1760. The museum is based on the first organized scientific collections in Norway. The Storting (Norwegian Parliament) resolved to form the University of Trondheim in 1968, and the museum was transferred to the University on 1 April 1984. Further reorganization after 1 January 1996 led to the establishment of the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). In 2005, the NTNU University Museum was raised to the same level as the university faculties, with representation on the Council of Deans and the University Research Committee. Our vision The NTNU University Museum embraces the world! Our role The NTNU University Museum develops and communicates knowledge of nature, culture, and science. It safeguards and preserves scientific collections, making them available for research, management and dissemination. Our values Our values are clarity, openness and collaboration. Our strengths Our strengths are our rich scientific collections, our interdisciplinary expertise, our long tradition as a producer of knowledge, and our central location in the city. Our challenges The NTNU University Museum must meet NTNU’s goal of developing an environment for outstanding research in the areas where the museum has particular expertise and qualifications. The NTNU University Museum must respond to the challenges of its role as a key player in NTNU’s goal of increased visibility and contact with the community. The NTNU University Museum must develop a creative working environment and inspire professional challenges that make it attractive to all groups of employees working at the museum.

Bakgrunnen til alle anleggene er beskrevet og alle sikringsanleggene er vist på oversiktskart. De anleggene som har behov for vedlikehold, reparasjon eller miljømessig oppgradering er beskrevet nærmere. For disse anleggene er det laget tiltaksbeskrivelse, detaljerte kart og kostnadsoverslag.

Etter store skred i Namsen i 1959 og registrering av erosjonstilstanden i vassdraget i 1961, ble det i 1960 og 70-årene gjennomført et storstilt forbyggingsprogram i Namsen for å sikre mot videre erosjon og utrasing. I det store og dype elvefaret tillot ikke utstyr og arbeidsmetoder den gang en tilstrekkelige god utførelse av forbygningene. Det ble heller ikke lagt særlig vekt på istandsetting og tilrettelegging av adkomstvegen, landskap og miljø. I dag er et stort antall av de gamle forbygningene skadet og trenger reparasjon og miljømessig opprusting.
