The known processes of deposition of plant remains to arctic lake sediments are summarised, and used in the interpretation of the vegetation history at Skardtjørna. Compared to the 1961-90 period, a much larger area along the coast, from Kristiansand north to Svolvær, have average temperatures above freezing all year. This is a report on a post-lactating female soprano pipistrelle, Pipistrellus pygmaeus, which in autumn exploited habitats from sea level to the transition zone between alpine and sub-alpine areas. In Norway, very few bats are found in caves and mines in winter, thus other habitats must be primary hibernation sites in this region. Norway is a country located in Northern Europe on the western and northern part of the Scandinavian Peninsula, bordering the North Sea to the southwest and the Skagerrak inlet to the south, the North Atlantic Ocean (Norwegian Sea) in the west and the Barents Sea to the northeast. 1 NORCE Norwegian Research Centre, Bjerknes Centre for Climate Research, Bergen, Norway. a.s.l. The Finnsjøen lake sediments were cored at maximum water depth (14.7 m) from the ice-covered lake surface during winter. For Bergen the corresponding temperatures are 2.6 °C and 15.5 °C, for Værnes/Trondheim -1.0 °C and 15.1 °C and for Langnes/Tromsø -2.5 °C and 12.1 °C. In accordance with the EU Water Framework Directive (WFD), Norway has made the river basin the basis for coordination of sectoral policies. The UW Herbarium database contains specimen label data for our Pacific Northwest collections of vascular plants, bryophytes, lichens, and fungi. To explore roost site selection in late autumn and early winter at 62° N in western Norway, 18 bats of three genera of the Vespertilionidae family that are known to use underground hibernation sites were tagged with radio transmitters. 3 Nansen Environmental and Remote Sensing Center, Bjerknes Centre for Climate Research, Bergen, Norway. While successional forces tend to drive this change in one direction towards scrub and woodland, management by grazing and burning tends to reverse the trend. There is a trapper hut in the background. 2 Institute of Arctic and Alpine Research, University of Colorado, Boulder, CO, United States of America. (Fig. of Earth Science, Univ. Auf die Stadt Bergen und Umgebung fallen Niederschläge mit einem Jahresmittel von ca. It travelled more than 12.3 kilometres from its roost and returned to its roost at sea level on all four nights when it was tracked. Due to the temperate waters of the Gulf Stream, Norway has a much milder climate than other parts of the world at the same latitude, such as Alaska, Greenland, and Siberia.The coldest areas in the winter are often inland or far to the north. (2008) However, due to its maritime location, Pinus sylvestris is rare and Betula pubescens is the major forest component forming a tree-line at an altitude of about 200 m (Fig. The Burke Museum is the premier museum of natural history and culture in the Pacific Northwest. Man kann in Norwegen sehr erfolgreich in Seen, Flüssen und an den Küsten angeln. 2 ... also der nördlichsten Vegetationszone, in der das Waldwachstum möglich ist, gibt es moos- und ... Norwegen hat über 800 Arten an Moosen und über 12.000 Arten von Flechten zu bieten. Heath vegetation can be considered as a transitional stage in the succession from grassland to woodland. 2).

Klimadiagramm und Klimatabelle für Vardø, Norwegen. Macrofossil analyses of a 335 cm-long core from Skardtjørna, a small lake on the west coast of Spitsbergen, Svalbard, are presented. Die Durchschnittstemperatur liegt bei 6,1 Grad. Norway. Svarttangen: trappers’ hut Norwegen besitzt mit 23,1 Mio. In addition, compared to the previous surveys in 2001 and 2008, no significant On completion of the course, the student should be able to identify Norwegian vertebrates to the species level based on appearance, sound or tracks, know the taxonomy (family and order), habitat use (vegetation zone and vegetation type), way of living and environmental adaptations of Norwegian vertebrates, and evaluate how they are influenced by habitat changes caused by forestry and agriculture. A 110-mm piston corer (Nesje, 1992) modified by A. Paus and J. Kusior (Dept. Plant-macrofossil analysis is being increasingly used in Quaternary science, particularly palaeoecology and vegetation history. Compared to the 1961-90 period, a much larger area along the coast, from Kristiansand north to Svolvær, have average temperatures above freezing all year. Das Meer vor Norwegen ist reich an Kabeljau, Lachs, Seelachs, Heringen und Makrelen. The warm North Atlantic Current of the Gulf Stream keeps nearly all the seaports ice-free, even in the northern regions. The climate in Norway varies a lot from country part to country part, and there can be large variations within the separate regions of Norway as well. Norway Area and Population Density. In 2015, vegetation data indicated that the species richness of vascular plants decreased significantly with increasing elevation. Wichtige Häfen sind Narvik, Tønsberg, Oslo, Kristiansand, Stavanger, Bergen und Trondheim. Norway is a country located in Northern Europe on the northern and western parts of the Scandinavian Peninsula.Majority of the country borders water, including the North Sea in the southwest, the Skagerrak inlet to the south, the North Atlantic Ocean (Norwegian Sea) in the west, and the Barents Sea in the northeast. 1. Aspect altered the total number of species on a mountain and also the vegetation zonation, but not the percentage of taxa from a given geographic source. Bergen, Allegaten 41, N-5007 Bergen, Norway, about Leptogium rivulare.) Bruttoregistertonnen (BRT) die siebtgrößte Handelsflotte der Erde. Introduction [2] Isotopic and morphological analyses of organic remains in lake sediments provide a comprehensive, multiproxy method for characterizing past terrestrial and aquatic communities. For Bergen the corresponding temperatures are 2.6 °C and 15.5 °C, for Værnes/Trondheim -1.0 °C and 15.1 °C and for Langnes/Tromsø -2.5 °C and 12.1 °C. Im Süden ist das Klima wesentlich milder als im Norden und an der Westküste ist es feuchter als im kontinental geprägten Inland und Osten. The climate of Norway is much milder than that of most other regions as far north, especially along the country's west coast. 2). In a Holocene time perspective, occurrence of forest fires and large‐scale migrations of boreal forest trees are widely believed to be under broad climatic control (Huntley and Birks 1983, Bonan and Shugart 1989, Huntley and Webb 1989).The immigration of Norway spruce Picea abies (L.) Karst. Norway is a country located in Northern Europe on the northern and western parts of the Scandinavian Peninsula; the majority of the country borders water, including the Skagerrak inlet to the south, the North Sea to the southwest, the North Atlantic Ocean (Norwegian Sea) to the west, and the Barents Sea to the north. 5007 Bergen, Norway A.

State of the Environment Norway provide you with the latest information about the state and development of the environment in Norway. Norway - Norway - Climate: Although it occupies almost the same degrees of latitude as Alaska, Norway owes its warmer climate to the Norwegian Current (the northeastern extension of the Gulf Stream), which carries four to five million tons of tropical water per second into the surrounding seas. Despite of its green, continuous vegetation carpet, this tundra is part of the high-arctic vegetation zone in Spitsbergen as its species diversity is quite limited. 0 0 in the Norwegian Sea, and the late-glacial lake sequences Lusvatnet (69 04 N, 15 34 E) is a lake close to the are in an optimal location to study the vegetation responses southwest coast of Andøya in a sheltered valley at 30 m to large and rapid climate changes. Figure 2. In den von Fjorden durchsetzten Küstenregionen können mit etwas Glück auch Robben und Wale beobachtet werden. to the high alpine vegetation zone (1845 m a.s.l.). The west coast has a cool and wet climate, and is often affected by weather fronts coming from the Atlantic Ocean, so much so that clouds, rain, and wind dominate throughout the year. Norway is a Scandinavian country in Northern Europe that has a landmass of 148,728 square miles (385,203 square kilometers), which ranks 62 nd in the world in terms of sheer size. Compared to the 1961-90 period, a much larger area along the coast, from Kristiansand north to Svolvær, have average temperatures above freezing all year. Fährschiffe verbinden Norwegen mit Großbritannien, Dänemark, Schweden und Deutschland. Norwegian Journal of Entomology 59, Håland, Ø. In each district, the joint water management plan and program of measures is formulated by cross-sector and multi-level networks. area north of Bergen can be characterised as such an area (de Smidt 1995). Located on the UW campus. Sean Frey, Data Management Specialist, Riding Mountain National Park., Manitoba. In Norwegen sind fast 200 Vogelarten beheimatet. Das Klima in Norwegen unterscheidet sich teilweise deutlich je nach Lage im Land. Today Andøya has a relatively warm maritime climate for its northern latitude, with a mean July First Norwegian record of Dixella 188 Norwegian Journal of Entomology 60, 182–189 (2013) naevia (Peus, 1934) (Diptera, Dixidae), and other Norwegian Journal of Entomology 59, 158–181. Snow that falls along the coast melts often immediately. of Bergen) was applied, which allowed us to use 6-m tubes and start sampling maximum 5 m below the sediment surface. from the low alpine (1161 m a.s.l.) This current usually keeps the fjords from freezing, even in the Arctic Finnmark region. Informationen über Durchschnittstemperaturen, Regentage, Sonnenstunden und Wassertemperaturen. the northern part of the middle boreal vegetation zone (Moen 1998). Although the techniques of macrofossil analysis are well-tried and relatively simple, the resulting data consisting of qualitative binary presences and absences, ordinal classes, and quantitative counts are not simple from the viewpoint of numerical data-analysis. Andøya acts as a terrestrial ‘thermometer’ inserted Andøya (E-Klima.no). For Bergen the corresponding temperatures are 2.6 °C and 15.5 °C, for Værnes/Trondheim -1.0 °C and 15.1 °C and for Langnes/Tromsø -2.5 °C and 12.1 °C. New units of River Basin Districts and Sub-Districts have been introduced. Ten percent of the taxa are local species endemic to the North Cordillera, regardless of vegetation zone or aspect.
