Circumpolar Military Facilities of the Arctic Five CIRCUMPOLAR MILITARY FACILITIES OF THE ARCTIC FIVE Ernie Regehr, O.C. Senior Fellow in Arctic Security and Defence The Simons Foundation Canada and Amy Zavitz, M.A. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Circumpolar Military Facilities of the Arctic Five – last updated: September 2019 Ernie Regehr, O.C., and Amy Zavitz, M.A. Circumpolar Military Facilities of the Arctic Five Introduction This compilation of current military facilities in the circumpolar region1 continues to be offered as an aid to addressing a key question posed by the Canadian Senate more than five years ago: “Is the [Arctic] region again becoming militarized?”2 If anything, that question has become more interesting and relevant in the intervening years, with commentators divided on the meaning of the demonstrably accelerated military developments in the Arctic – some arguing that they are primarily a reflection of increasing military responsibilities in aiding civil authorities in surveillance and search and rescue, some noting that Russia’s increasing military presence is consistent with its need to respond to increased risks of things like illegal resource extraction, terrorism, and disasters along its frontier and the northern sea route, and others warning that the Arctic could indeed be headed once again for direct strategic confrontation.3 While a simple listing of military bases, facilities, and equipment, either based in or available for deployment in the Arctic Region, is not by itself an answer to the question of militarization, an understanding of the nature and pace of development of military infrastructure in the Arctic is nevertheless essential to any informed consideration of the changing security dynamics of the Arctic. What follows relies on a broad range of media, government, academic, and research centre sources, all of which are indicated in the footnotes.4 This paper is regarded as a “work in progress” and continues to be updated as new information and changes in military posture and engagement relative to the Arctic become available. Comments, corrections, further information, and suggestions for additional sources are all most welcome.

Distribution of Boreus westwoodi Hagen, 1866 and Boreus hyemalis (L., 1767) (Mecoptera) in Norway. Norwegian Journal of Entomology 58, 73–80. An extensive material collected during nearly fifty years adds new detailed information on the distribution of the winter active insects Boreus westwoodi Hagen, 1866 and B. hyemalis (L., 1767) in Norway. Since females are difficult to identify, the new data rely on males. Based on the revised Strand-system, the following geographical regions are new to B. westwoodi: Ø, BØ, VAY, ON, TEI, TEY, MRI, MRY, and TRY. For B. hyemalis, AK, BØ, TEI, RY, SFI, and NTI are new regions. While B. westwoodi is widespread in Norway, including the three northernmost counties, B. hyemalis seems to be restricted to the south, with the northernmost record in NTI. In Sweden, the situation is similar: B. westwoodi is widespread, while B. hyemalis has been recorded as far north as Västerbotten, at a latitude corresponding to the northernmost record in Norway. The known distribution of both species in Norway is presented on EIS-grid map. Key words: Boreus hyemalis, Boreus westwoodi, Mecoptera, distribution, Norway.
