Since in laboratory experiments a relationship between segment number and tempera- ture in geophilomorph centipedes has been proven, we suggest that climatic variation in nature could have a direct effect on segment number. To address this hypothesis we examine the way in which local climatic factors in Sognefjord — air temperature and precipitation both changing along a longitudinal gradient — exert their effect on seg- ment number in Geophilus flavus. Changes in G. flavus segment number along the cli- matic gradient are similar to that found in previous laboratory experiments with Striga- mia maritima, but are even more pronounced. In G. flavus, a 1.5 difference in the mean segment number is found in populations that occur in Sognefjord along a temperature gradient of only about 1.4 °C. In contrast, several degrees centigrade were required to produce a similar increase in the mean segment number in laboratory experiments involvingP S. maritimaR .

Since we with latitude across the east coast of Britain, now have strong laboratory evidence for the in accordance with the proposal that body size effect of temperature on the number of leg increases with decreasing latitude (specimens pairs in S. maritima (Kettle et al. 2003, Vedel from colder regions tend to be smaller and with et al. 2008, 2009, 2010) we decided to carry out fewer trunk segments than those from warmer a study in a geographical region (Sognefjord) regions, see Eason 1979, Hayden et al. 2012). where climatic data are available to find the Up to now, Strigamia maritima is the main effect of temperature and precipitation on LBS model species for studies of segmentation and numbers in a geophilomorph species. Since in segment number variation (Kettle et al. 2003, embryos LBS numbers increase lineary with Vedel et al. 2010, Brena & Akam 2012, Hayden increasing temperature (for more details see et al. 2012). Previous works have shown that this Vedel et al. 2008), we may expect changes in variation has both environmental and genetic climate parameters towards the inner part of the bases (for further discussion see Vedel et al. fjord to explain, at least partially, the variation in 2008, 2009). Moreover, the results of laboratory LBS number in G. flavus. experiments presented to date demonstrate that in S. maritima, temperature affects the number of LBS that develop during embryogenesis (Vedel Material and methods et al. 2010). Therefore, we hypotesize that in geophilomorphs in nature, temperature variation Sample collection in Sognefjord — not necessarily resulting from a latitudinal cline — during early embryogenesis, could have Individuals of Geophilus flavus can be easily a significant effect on segment number (see also found in Sognefjord at low altitudes along cer- Vedel et al. 2010).

The database contains cli- mate data from numerous weather stations in Sognefjord since 1931 to present. In addition, detailed climatic tables for the years 1964–1966 were obtained from Utaaker and Skaar (1970). In this study, we used mean monthly normal values of temperature (°C) and sum monthly normal values of precipitation (mm) for the period 1931–1990 from meteorological stations located close to the sampling sites (see Appen- dix).

Frist for uttale er sett til 31. august 2018. Merknadar til framlegget sender du til [email protected]. Kommunane Høyanger, Vik, Balestrand, Leikanger, Sogndal, Luster, Lærdal og Aurland, har gått saman om forslag til freding av hummar for i alt 17 områder i Sognefjorden. Fredingsområda skal gjelde frå land og ut til 50 meters djup. Innanfor desse områda skal hummaren vere totalfreda. For 14 av områda vil det gjelde forbod mot fiske med fastståande reiskap som teiner, ruser og garn gjennom heile året. For 3 av områda (Sogndalsfjorden, Aurlandsfjorden og Lusterfjorden) vil det gjelde forbod mot hummarteiner gjennom heile året. Fredingsområda vert foreslått innført for 10 år. Om innføring av fredingsområder for hummar Fredingsområder for hummar er eit reguleringstiltak som kjem i tillegg til dei meir tradisjonelle tiltaka som utforming av teiner, grenser på tal teiner og fiskeperiodar. Så langt har innføring av fredingsområder for hummar på Sørlandet vist seg å vere svært positivt for bestandsutviklinga i områda. Ifølge Havforskingsinstituttet (Havforskningsrapporten 2014) har hummarbestanden i løpet av en fireårsperiode økt med 245 prosent, og gjennomsnittstørrelsen har økt med 13 prosent. Å opprette fredingsområder er eit av fleire verkemidlar som bidreg til ein meir berekraftig forvalting av hummar. I 2014 inviterte Fiskeridirektoratet landets kystkommunar med i ein prosess for å etablere nye fredingsområder for hummar.

Prior to the War of 1812, an Indian runner was dispatched with a war belt of wampum with a request for the Dakotas and Chippewas to meet at the big bend of the Wisconsin River (Portage). While camped on the banks of the Lemonweir, the runner dreamed that he had lost his belt of wampum at his last sleeping place. On waking in the morning, he found his dream to be a reality and he hastened back to retrieve the belt. During the 1820's, the French-Canadian fur traders called the river, La memoire - the memory. The Lemonweir rises in the extensive swamps and marshes in Monroe County.

Here were buildings such as “Murgården” (“the Brick House”), “Slottet” (“the Castle”) and “Folkekjøkkenet” (“the People’s Kitchen”). Sæbøtangen was a mix of dwellings established by NACo, but also included private dwellings and businesses. This was a distinctive little quarter, and those who grew up in old Sæbøtangen tell of a lively local community. Some remained here all their lives, but for most it was a temporary solution. In the 1970s and 80s, most of old Sæbøtangen was demolished. 10 Parken (“the Park”) The area Parken was developed between 1916–1928 by NACo and was designed by architect Nicolai Beer.

  • Sørdalen Naturreservat I Bremanger Kommune – Løyve Til Maskintransport På Tilkomstveg Til Overføringskanal
    Vår dato: Vår ref: 17.12.2020 2020/18716 Dykkar dato: Dykkar ref: 09.12.2020 Sogn og Fjordane Energi Saksbehandlar, innvalstelefon Johannes Anonby, 5764 3125 Att. Ragna Flatla Haugland Sørdalen naturreservat i Bremanger kommune – løyve til maskintransport på tilkomstveg til overføringskanal SFE får løyve til køyring av gravemaskin på anleggsveg gjennom Sørdalen naturreservat for tilkomst til utløpskanal utanfor reservatet Vi viser til søknad i e-post 9.12.2020 Frå Sogn og Fjordane Energiverk, som ønskjer å køyre med gravemaskin på anleggsvegen som går innom Sørdalen naturreservat for å kome til overføringskanal utom reservatet. Søknaden med bakgrunn SFE Produksjon driftar og held ved like kraftverket Svelgen 1 i Bremanger, og no trengst det å utbetre mur i kanalen der overføringstunnelen frå Langevatnet kjem ut i Sørdalen. Erosjon har gjort at nokre større steinar på nordsida delvis har rasa ut. For å få utført arbeidet må det beltast inn ei gravemaskin. Det vil skje på allereie opparbeidd tilkomstveg. I underkant av 100 meter av denne vegen ligg inne i reservatet. Kanalen der reparasjonsarbeidet skal gjerast ligg utanfor naturreservatet. Arbeidet vil skje over 1 eller 2 dagar, og SFE vil varsle oppsyn på førehand. SFE ønskjer eit løyve som gjeld frå d.d. til ut juni månad 2021, sidan det er uvisst om det blir aktuelt å utføre jobben før nyttår eller først etter vinteren (vêr- og føreavhengig). Kanalen vart utbetra i 2015 av Statens Vegvesen i samband med utskifting av kulvert under fylkesveg 614, og Fylkesmannen gav då Vegvesenet dispensasjon, dagsett 23.3.2015, til maskintransport på denne gamle anleggsvegen gjennom verneområdet.
