Based on observations of the active shoreface regime, large clasts are interpreted to give rise to scattering observed near the top of the deeper radar unit.

  • Faroe Islands and Greenland 2008
    N O R D I C M E D I A T R E N D S 10 Media and Communication Statistics Faroe Islands and Greenland 2008 Compiled by Ragnar Karlsson NORDICOM UNIVERSITY OF GOTHENBURG 2008 NORDICOM’s activities are based on broad and extensive network of contacts and collaboration with members of the research community, media companies, politicians, regulators, teachers, librarians, and so forth, around the world. The activities at Nordicom are characterized by three main working areas. Media and Communication Research Findings in the Nordic Countries Nordicom publishes a Nordic journal, Nordicom Information, and an English language journal, Nordicom Review (refereed), as well as anthologies and other reports in both Nordic and English langu- ages. Different research databases concerning, among other things, scientific literature and ongoing research are updated continuously and are available on the Internet. Nordicom has the character of a hub of Nordic cooperation in media research. Making Nordic research in the field of mass communication and media studies known to colleagues and others outside the region, and weaving and supporting networks of collaboration between the Nordic research communities and colleagues abroad are two prime facets of the Nordicom work. The documentation services are based on work performed in national documentation centres at- tached to the universities in Aarhus, Denmark; Tampere, Finland; Reykjavik, Iceland; Bergen, Norway; and Göteborg, Sweden. Trends and Developments in the Media Sectors in the Nordic Countries Nordicom compiles and collates media statistics for the whole of the Nordic region. The statistics, to- gether with qualified analyses, are published in the series, Nordic Media Trends, and on the homepage.

    West Greenland Commission WGC(18)13 Working Papers to ICES on the Review of Phone Surveys (2015, 2016 and 2017) Not to be cited without prior reference to the author International Council for North Atlantic Salmon The Exploration of the Sea Working Group Working Paper 2015/35 Results of the phone interview survey of licensed Greenlandic salmon fishermen conducted in February 2015. by Rasmus Nygaard Greenland Institute of Natural Resources P.O. Box 570, DK-3900 Nuuk, Denmark 1 Summary The fishery for Atlantic salmon in Greenland waters started around 1960 and peaked in the early seventies at a catch of more than 2,000t a year. The fishery was quota regulated from 1972, but due to declining stocks, in June 1998 NASCO agreed that no commercial fishery for salmon should be allowed, but that the catch at West Greenland should be restricted to 'that amount used for internal consumption in Greenland, which in the past has been estimated at 20 tones'. Since then export of salmon from Greenland has been banned by law and catches has been limited by internal by internal comsumption, season and gear limitations. Unlicensed fishery for private consumption has always been allowed but limited to one gillnet per unlicensed fisherman. In order to sell catches and use more than 1 gillnet a license is required. From 2002 to 2011, licensed fishermen were only allowed to sell salmon to institutions, local markets and restaurants. However, in 2012 landing to factories producing for the Greenlandic home market was re-opened and a 35t quota was set by Greenland.

Place names in Greenland can be difficult to get rors and place names in the old Greenlandic orthography. right, as they are a mix of Greenlandic, Danish, and other While many researchers have gone to great lengths to get foreign languages.
