Annual Report 2007 3 Waiting for a New Research Institute Policy... Despite high productivity in 2007, a stable, robust economy continues to prove elusive for NIBR. One of the main reasons lies in the obscurity of the regulatory and policy environment under which independent institutes must operate and an unfair, government-regulated competitive environment. There is an acute need for an integrated, predictable policy for the non-university institute sector. NIBR celebrated its fortieth anniversary in 2007.

This article describes the emergency medical service (EMS) response elicited by the two incidents. Methods: A retrospective and observational study was conducted based on data from the EMS systems involved and the public domain. The study was approved by the Data Protection Official and was defined as a quality improvement project. Results: We describe the timeline and logistics of the EMS response, focusing on alarm, dispatch, initial response, triage and evacuation. The scenes in the Oslo government district and at Utøya island are described separately. Conclusions: Many EMS units were activated and effectively used despite the occurrence of two geographically separate incidents within a short time frame. Important lessons were learned regarding triage and evacuation, patient flow and communication, the use of and need for emergency equipment and the coordination of helicopter EMS.

  • Silurian Vertebrate Remains from the Oslo Region, Norway, and Their Implications for Regional Biostratigraphy
    NORWEGIAN JOURNAL OF GEOLOGY Vol 99 Nr. 1 https://dx.doi.org/10.17850/njg99-1-07 Silurian vertebrate remains from the Oslo Region, Norway, and their implications for regional biostratigraphy Oskar Bremer1, Susan Turner2, Tiiu Märss3 & Henning Blom1 1Uppsala University, Department of Organismal Biology, Norbyvägen 18A, 752 36, Uppsala, Sweden. 2Honorary Research Fellow, Queensland Museum Geosciences, 122 Gerler Road, Hendra, Queensland 4011, Australia. 3Department of Geology at Tallinn University of Technology, Ehitajate tee 5, 19086 Tallinn, Estonia. E-mail corresponding author (Oskar Bremer): [email protected]. Several vertebrate assemblages are described from the Silurian of the Oslo Region, Norway, based on the review and revision of previous reports of microremains, as well as unpublished material from museum collections. Articulated thelodont specimens from the Rudstangen Fauna, Ringerike Group, are also described here for the first time, revealing a seemingly monogeneric loganelliid assemblage. The oldest assemblage (mid-Llandovery) only contains the thelodont Loganellia cf. aldridgei, while a single sample from upper Llandovery strata produced four Thelodus sp. scales. These scales share features with those from younger Thelodus taxa and give additional support to an early appearance of this genus. The mid-Wenlock faunas consist of thelodonts Loganellia grossi, Loganellia einari and Thelodus laevis. These are joined by the thelodont Paralogania martinssoni, anaspids Rhyncholepis parvula and cf. Pterygolepis nitida, as well as the osteostracans cf. Tyriaspis whitei and Osteostraci gen. et sp. indet. in late Wenlock and earliest Ludlow faunas. These complement the previously described anaspids and osteostracans of the Rudstangen Fauna based on articulated specimens. The faunas of a number of calcarenite samples collectively contain the thelodonts L.

  • A Revised Stratigraphy for the Ringerike Group (Upper Silurian, Oslo Region)
    NORWEGIAN JOURNAL OF GEOLOGY Stratigraphy for the Ringerike Group 193 A revised stratigraphy for the Ringerike Group (Upper Silurian, Oslo Region) Neil S. Davies, Peter Turner & Ivan J. Sansom Davies, N.S., Turner, P. & Sansom, I.J.: A revised stratigraphy for the Ringerike Group (Upper Silurian, Oslo Region), Norwegian Journal of Geology, Vol. 85, pp. 193-201. Trondheim 2005. ISSN 029-196X. The Ringerike Group is a terrigenous succession of Upper Silurian sediments that outcrops in a number of areas within the Oslo Region of sout- hern Norway. Despite being the focus of a number of studies in the past, the stratigraphic relationships between different outcrop areas are still poorly understood. This paper compiles sedimentological and stratigraphic evidence from all the outcrop areas and a revised stratigraphy for the Ringerike Group is presented. The revised stratigraphy comprises four formations – the Sundvollen Formation, the Stubdal Formation, the Store Arøya Formation (new), and the Holmestrand Formation. These formations vary according to whether they lie north or south of Oslo. The base of the Ringerike Group is diachronous, being younger to the south, reflecting the fact that its siliciclastic depositional systems were advancing south- wards from the Caledonides to the north of the Oslo Region. School of Geography, Earth and Environmental Sciences, University of Birmingham, Edgbaston, Birmingham B15 2TT, U.K. ( E-mail address: [email protected]) Introduction The Ringerike Group is a succession of Upper Silurian terrigenous sediments (lower Old Red Sandstone) that crops out discontinuously throughout the Oslo Region of southern Norway (Fig. 1). The base of the group lies conformably on top of the limestones and marls of the Wenlock Steinsfjorden Formation, and thus marks the cessation of marine carbonate deposition in the Silurian of the Oslo Region.

Hole kommune vedtar å sende høringsuttalelse til planprogrammet for Fellesprosjektet Ringeriksbanen og E16 Skaret - Hønefoss, slik den fremkommer i dette saksfremlegget. 2. Hole kommune vil spesielt fremheve følgende punkter: a. Konsekvenser for innbyggerne generelt og brukere av kommunenes tjenester spesielt, må utredes grundig, og synliggjøres som eget tema. b. Støy og andre nærføringsulemper i forhold til institusjonsbyggene i Kroksund må utredes spesielt, for både anleggs- og driftsfasen. c. Av hensyn til institusjonsbyggene i Kroksund og annen boligbebyggelse, ber Hole kommune om at broløsningen for E-16 broene legges lengst mulig sør. d. Framtidige vei og trafikkløsninger må utredes slik at det blir god sammenheng mellom kryss, stoppested og kommunens tettsteder. Herunder også løsninger for gående og syklende. e. Kryss mellom Fv. 158 og E16 i Sundvollen "Åsa krysset" bør inngå i den statlige reguleringsplanen og opparbeides med tilstrekkelig kapasitet tidlig i Fellesprosjektets levetid. f. Konsekvenser for kommunes drift som følge av den økte belastning gjennomføring av dette prosjektet medfører, må utredes nærmere i samarbeid med kommunen. g.

    The bomb attack in Oslo and the shootings at Utøya, 2011 KAMEDO report 97 Kamedo – the Swedish Disaster Medicine Study Organisation – has existed since 1964 and was previously known as the Swedish Disaster Medicine Organisation Committee. The committee started its activities under the auspices of the Swedish Research Delegation for Defence Medicine. In 1974 Kamedo was transferred to FOA (the Swedish Defence Research Establishment), now called FOI (the Swedish Defence Research Agency). Kamedo has been affiliated with the National Board of Health and Welfare since 1988. The main task of Kamedo is to send expert observers to places in the world affected by large-scale accidents or disasters. The observers are sent to disaster areas at short notice and collect relevant information by contacting key individuals, principally on a colleague-to-colleague basis. The information they obtain may only be used for documentation purposes. There are four main areas which are studied first and foremost: the medical, psychological, organisational and social aspects of disasters. Results from the studies are published in Kamedo reports that are listed on the National Board of Health and Welfare’s website. As of report number 74 the full reports may be downloaded, but for the earlier reports only the summary is available on the website. From report number 34 and onward they have a summary in English and as of report number 55 these are downloadable from the website. From number 89 and onward the whole reports have been translated into English. The authors are responsible for the contents and conclusions, the National Board of Health and Welfare draws no conclusions in the document.
