    Arkitektur- og designhøgskolen i Oslo The Oslo School of Architecture and Design DIPLOMA ROGRAM FALL 2017 Diploma candidate: Robert Sømod Institute: FTH Main supervisor: Beate Hølmebakk Second supervisor: Lars Danielsen Holen External supervisor: Company cooperation: Ti tie of project: Lysebotn 1 Pre-diploma rapport ”Lysebotn 1” Robert Sømod AHO, Fall 2017 Supervisor: Beate Hølmebakk Introduction Lysebotn1 water power facility began construction in 1947, with an aim to sup- ply the county of Rogaland in the south-west Norway with power in a time when society had an ever-increasing consumption of electricity. Due to post-war politics and restrains, the facility was constructed 50 meters inside a mountain. Both to secure this important facility from bomb-raids and to save cost in materials. It was constructed next to a natural mountain shelf in the beautiful Lysefjorden. Historically, because of intervention in nature, waterpower-facilities have been controversial, but in the same time it has brought work and pride to locals. Today, some look at these spaces as something sacred. The owners of Lysebotn1 is constructing a new facility, Lysebotn2, which will take over and increase the production. Lysebotn 1 and its halls carved out of mountain will then close down. I consider these halls to be highly interesting, and want to open them for public. My fascination is that the aim of the infrastructural program has do with the most essential needs of structure. In the fact that these industrial facilities require spe- cific logic systems, and programs that deal with infrastructure demands a specific architecture in means that only the most necessary will be done.

In general arriving at the Stavanger Sola Airport (SVG) in the morning hours on a Monday, Wednesday, or Friday work best for scheduling so that you can leave the airport quickly and catch the *12:30 Fast Ferry ( *new summer time schedule from dates in June sometime ). If your coming for the Heliboogie Monday June 20th would be your best choice for early morning arrival into Stavanger. Do not purchase expensive airline tickets that get you into Stavanger later and then missing the ferry boats into the fjord and having to stay overnight in a hotel just to catch the Lauvvik slow ferry or Lysefjord Tourist Bus in the next day. There is a city map of Stavanger web link as well as other helpful links below. When you get to the Sola Airport catch the blue and white airport Flybussen bus (or taxi) to the "Fiskepiren" destination, Fiskepirterminalen building in Stavanger.

  • Norway - Fjords and Mountains a Once in a Lifetime Destination That Will Take You to Mountains, Glaciers, Deep Coastal Fjords and the Land of the Vikings and Trolls
    Norway - Fjords and Mountains A once in a lifetime destination that will take you to mountains, glaciers, deep coastal fjords and the land of the Vikings and trolls... Trip Length: 21 days / 20 nights July - August 2023 Minimum 8 guests / Maximum 12 guests *8-9 guests NOK 70559 ($ 11300) 10-11 guests NOK 63500 ($ 10200) 12 guests NOK 58500 ($ 9400) *(AUD prices quoted based on exchange rate 2020. 2023 prices to be confirmed) Included meals marked each day. B = Breakfast, L = Lunch, D = Dinner Norwegians can’t get enough of nature and we’ve discovered why! Norway’s scenic landscapes are best discovered by following a path on foot. Late summer is the best time to experience a sunlit landscape that has forced the snow to retreat to the mountains and has woken the flowers to their full bloom. Long days, mild temperatures and the fabled midnight sun promise ideal walking conditions, and we will be surrounded with those vibrant natural colours of the changing landscape. We’ll discover untamed, mythical landscapes as we trapse the classic (and sometimes challenging) hiking trails of Preikestolen, Galdhøpiggen, and Besseggen Ridge. You’ll never forget your first approach aboard the Hurtigruten Ferry, to the unsurpassed beauty of the Lofoten Islands. Tall, craggy spires dominate the skyline and beckon walkers to their valleys and summits. We stay in hotels and mountain refuges, so there’s no camping on this trip. Norway - it’s a love affair with nature! Day 1: Monday Arrive Stavanger Airport (Sola) Arrive in Stavanger and make your way to our hotel in downtown Stavanger.

  • Primary Production Enhancement by Artificial Upwelling in a Western Norwegian Fjord
    Vol. 352: 39–52, 2007 MARINE ECOLOGY PROGRESS SERIES Published December 20 doi: 10.3354/meps07139 Mar Ecol Prog Ser Primary production enhancement by artificial upwelling in a western Norwegian fjord Jan Aure1, Øivind Strand1, Svein Rune Erga2, Tore Strohmeier1 1Institute of Marine Research, Nordnesgaten 50, 5817 Bergen, Norway 2Department of Biology, University of Bergen, Jahnebakken 5, 5020 Bergen, Norway ABSTRACT: To enhance primary production rate for shellfish cultivation in fjords, a large-scale arti- ficial upwelling experiment was carried out in a western Norwegian fjord during the summers of 2004 and 2005. Pumping 2 m3 s–1 brackish surface water to a depth of 30 m created an artificial upwelling of nutrient-rich deeper water. The entrainment of deeper water into the buoyant brackish plume resulted in a transport of about 450 kg d–1 nitrate, 760 kg d–1 silicate and 75 kg d–1 phosphate to an intrusion depth of 8 to 10 m. The artificial upwelling approximately tripled mean chlorophyll a (chl a) concentration and related primary production rate during the summer within an influence area of 10 km2 near the head of the fjord. The size of the area of influence and the relative increase of the algae biomass within it depend on both the water exchange and the photosynthetic effectiveness. The relatively high silicate content of the deeper water stimulated diatom growth inside the area influenced by the artificial upwelling. A higher stable level of phytoplankton biomass, dominated by nontoxic species, would probably increase the carrying capacity of seston-feeding shellfish and could form the basis of more predictable mussel cultivation in fjords.
