West Greenland by Land and Sea Itinerary greenland.nordicvisitor.com WEST GREENLAND BY LAND AND SEA ITINERARY DAY 1 DAY 1: WELCOME TO THE ARCTIC (SATURDAY) Depart from Reykjavik Domestic Airport for a short flight to the charming Arctic village of Ilulissat (Jakobshavn), beautifully situated at the mouth of the 56 kilometre-long Ilulissat Icefjord, a UNESCO World Heritage site. After settling in and spending some leisure time in the village, enjoy a delicious welcome dinner at Hotel Arctic prepared by award-winning chefs (dinner included). Spend the night at Hotel Arctic. Attractions: Ilulissat DAY 2 DAY 2: ALL ABOARD! VOYAGE BEGINS (SUNDAY) The first part of the day is free for you to explore Ilulissat as you please or you could choose to join an optional excursion. In the afternoon, board a passenger ship for your 4-day southbound voyage along Greenland’s rugged west coast. As the ship pulls away from the harbour in Ilulissat, you will pass huge icebergs at the mouth of the Icefjord, with possible sightings of Humpback whales along the way. Later in the evening, enjoy a short stop at the village of Aasiaat. Spend the next three nights on board the ship in a cabin with private facilities. Attractions: Ilulissat DAY 3 DAY 3: SISIMIUT AND SLED DOGS (MONDAY) The voyage continues with a mid-morning call at Sisimiut, Greenland’s second largest town with 5,500 inhabitants and over 1,000 sled dogs! Here, you have some time for a museum visit or a stroll around the old part of town. This is also an ideal place to spot whales and seals as the fjords around Sisimiut are among the deepest in Greenland. Later in the evening, the ship makes a short stop in Maniitsoq (“the rugged place” in Greenlandic), where you can see deep, narrow fjords and some of the highest mountains in West Greenland. Attractions: Aasiaat 1/3 DAY 4 DAY 4: NUUK, WORLD'S SMALLEST CAPITAL (TUESDAY) Sailing south, the ship calls early in the morning at Nuuk, Greenland’s capital.

    Kujalleq Nutaaq ERHVERVSUDVIKLINGS FORSLAG for Kommune Kujalleq Version 1.0 - 2020 Innovation South Greenland A/S, Torvevej 34, Postboks 313, 3920 Qaqortoq, Greenland Oqarasuaat +299 537777, e-mail: [email protected] Forord Innovation South Greenland arbejder målrettet for at få udviklingen i gang i hele Sydgrønland. Dette dokument afspejler anbefalingerne til Kommunalbestyrelsen. 1. Ser man på infrastrukturen er det gennem en årrække blevet svært at rejse rundt i Kommunen. 2. Det er en udfordring at få vareforsyninger, dyrt og svært at sende varer fra sydgrønland og svært at holde møder osv. Af disse og flere andre årsager er udviklingen gået nærmest i stå. 3. Resultatet har været at der er sket en gradvis en fraflytning. Desuden har personer med højere kompetencer fået gode jobs andre steder. Det er ganske enkelt blevet svært at skabe et livsgrundlag på et personligt plan, for familier og for erhvervslivet. Derfor har man etableret Innovation South Greenland A/S for at skabe vækst, udvikling og rådgivning af iværksættere. En konkret opgave som er blevet givet Innovation South Greenland A/S er at finde en løsning for Narsarsuaq i et nyt scenarie. Det vigtige er imidlertid at se på hele Sydgrønland som en sammenhængende region. Den første forudsætning er at skabe håb og troværdighed. Dernæst at man får en tidssvarende infrastruktur på plads. Ydermere skal der opdyrkes en iværksætterkultur som understøttes af igangsætning af konkrete projekter. Sidst og ikke mindst skal der tiltrækkes investeringer udefra og indgås bilaterale aftaler som kan styrke regionen. Erhvervsudviklingen skal baseres på et tæt samarbejde med Erhvervslivet, Kommunen, Selvstyret og Uddannelsesinstitutionerne i kommunen.

Across the fjord we have the settlement of Qassiarsuk where the ruins of the Viking settlement Brattahlid can be seen. Brattahlid was settled by Erik the Red more than thousand years ago. Magnetic Results 2002, Preface i PREFACE As shown in the tables and on the map below the Danish Meteorological Institute (DMI) operates four permanent geomagnetic observatories in Denmark and Greenland, namely Brorfelde, Qeqertarsuaq (formerly Godhavn), Qaanaaq (formerly Thule) and Narsarsuaq, and further also two magnetometer chains in Greenland. The chain on the west coast consists of the three permanent observatories and a number of variation stations, while the east coast chain consists of five variation stations. Together with Space Physics Research Laboratory (SPRL) of University of Michigan, USA, DMI also operates a Magnetometer Array on the Greenland Ice Cap (MAGIC). The variation stations are without absolute control. This yearbook presents the result of the geomagnetic measurements carried out at the four permanent observatories during 2002. The yearbook has been compiled by Børge Pedersen. The yearbook is divided in seven sections.

  • Ilulissat Icefjord
    World Heritage Scanned Nomination File Name: 1149.pdf UNESCO Region: EUROPE AND NORTH AMERICA __________________________________________________________________________________________________ SITE NAME: Ilulissat Icefjord DATE OF INSCRIPTION: 7th July 2004 STATE PARTY: DENMARK CRITERIA: N (i) (iii) DECISION OF THE WORLD HERITAGE COMMITTEE: Excerpt from the Report of the 28th Session of the World Heritage Committee Criterion (i): The Ilulissat Icefjord is an outstanding example of a stage in the Earth’s history: the last ice age of the Quaternary Period. The ice-stream is one of the fastest (19m per day) and most active in the world. Its annual calving of over 35 cu. km of ice accounts for 10% of the production of all Greenland calf ice, more than any other glacier outside Antarctica. The glacier has been the object of scientific attention for 250 years and, along with its relative ease of accessibility, has significantly added to the understanding of ice-cap glaciology, climate change and related geomorphic processes. Criterion (iii): The combination of a huge ice sheet and a fast moving glacial ice-stream calving into a fjord covered by icebergs is a phenomenon only seen in Greenland and Antarctica. Ilulissat offers both scientists and visitors easy access for close view of the calving glacier front as it cascades down from the ice sheet and into the ice-choked fjord. The wild and highly scenic combination of rock, ice and sea, along with the dramatic sounds produced by the moving ice, combine to present a memorable natural spectacle. BRIEF DESCRIPTIONS Located on the west coast of Greenland, 250-km north of the Arctic Circle, Greenland’s Ilulissat Icefjord (40,240-ha) is the sea mouth of Sermeq Kujalleq, one of the few glaciers through which the Greenland ice cap reaches the sea.

  • A Pilot Project to Undertake Genetic Stock of Origin
    International Atlantic Salmon Research Board SAG(14)5 Identification of Genetic Stock of Origin of European Atlantic Salmon Captured at West Greenland for the Years 2002-2012 Not to be cited without prior reference to the authors 6 May 2014 SAG(14)5 Identification of Genetic Stock of Origin of European Atlantic salmon Captured at West Greenland for the Years 2002-2012. This draft final report was prepared in fulfilment of a contract to undertake genetic stock identification of Atlantic salmon captured at West Greenland for the period 2002-2012. The project sponsors were the Agri-Food and Biosciences Institute for Northern Ireland (AFBINI), the International Atlantic Salmon Research Board (IASRB) of the North Atlantic Salmon Conservation Organisation (NASCO) and the Atlantic Salmon Trust (AST). Contributors to the report were Philip McGinnity (UCC), Paulo Prödohl (QUB), Caroline Bradley (QUB), Tim Sheehan (NOAA), Barb Lubinski (USGS), Tim King (USGS) and Tom Cross (UCC). Background Previous physical tagging (Reddin et al. 2012) and genetic stock identification studies (Gauthier-Ouellet et al 2009; Sheehan et al. 2010) of Atlantic salmon at continental scale suggest that fish from North America and Europe, and European fish from the Northern and Southern Multi-Sea-Winter (MSW) population complexes, contribute to the Atlantic salmon catch off West Greenland. However, little is known of the proportions of fish originating from different European regions and individual rivers within these regions. European Atlantic salmon caught at West Greenland appear to be predominantly, non- maturing one-sea-winter fish. These are fish that mature after two or more winters at sea, and are commonly known as 1SW non-maturing or multi-sea-winter (MSW) maturing fish.
