Arctic shipping trends during hazardous weather and sea-ice conditions and the Polar Code’s effectiveness
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-09-15)The Arctic’s extreme environmental conditions and remoteness make it a complex and dynamic environment for maritime operators. We find that Arctic shipping has grown by 7% per year over the past decade, despite the hazardous weather and sea-ice conditions that pose risks to vessels operating in the region. As a result of a strong increase in winter sailing, the time ships operate in these extreme ... -
Commentary 3 to the manifesto for the marine social sciences: unfolding Blue Growth
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-07-03)A marine social science manifesto is inherently an anticipatory exercise; it looks forward to the ocean and coastal challenges that societies are facing, with which marine social scientists are responsible to engage. The concept of Blue Growth that is mentioned in the manifesto (MMSS 1.1.3) and the related Blue Economy concept are also inherently anticipatory; they deal with a desired future for ... -
Coproducing Sea Ice Predictions with Stakeholders Using Simulation
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-03-15)Forecasts of sea ice evolution in the Arctic region for several months ahead can be of considerable socioeconomic value for a diverse range of marine sectors and for local community supply logistics. However, subseasonal-to-seasonal (S2S) forecasts represent a significant technical challenge, and translating user needs into scientifically manageable procedures and robust user confidence requires ... -
Government-industry dynamics in the development of offshore waste management in Norway: from prescriptive to risk-based regulation
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-08-14)Petroleum activities are associated with high risks. In the 1980s, concerns arose about the environmental impacts of ‘normal’ petroleum activity. Regular operations go hand-in-hand with emissions to air and discharges to sea. Both have been subject to extensive regulation since the 1990s. This paper analyzes the design and implementation of the Norwegian system that regulates operational discharges ... -
Informasjon og sikkerhet i arktiske farvann
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-06-02)Regjeringens nye nordområdemelding, som blir lagt fram til høsten, kommer like før FN går inn i sitt «havforskningstiår» (2021-2030). Selv om nordområdene handler om mer enn hav, er forvaltningen av de store havområdene nord for polarsirkelen et sentralt element. Arktis har i de seinere årene blitt et brennpunkt for kryssende strategier, interesser og verdier. Den globale oppvarmingen gjør at stadig ... -
Introductory commentary: Marine conflicts and pathways to sustainability in an era of Blue Growth and climate change
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-01-06)Worldwide, marine conflicts are growing in frequency and intensity due to increasing global demands for resources (Blue Growth) and climate change. This article introduces a collection in Maritime Studies on marine conflicts and pathways to sustainability in an era of Blue Growth and climate change. We posit that while conflict can be problematic, it can also play a positive role in bringing about ... -
Lessons from bright-spots for advancing knowledge exchange at the interface of marine science and policy
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-04-19)Evidence-informed decision-making is in increasing demand given growing pressures on marine environments. A way to facilitate this is by knowledge exchange among marine scientists and decision-makers. While many barriers are reported in the literature, there are also examples whereby research has successfully informed marine decision-making (i.e., ‘bright-spots’). Here, we identify and analyze 25 ... -
Mapping Weather, Water, Ice and Climate Knowledge & Information Needs for Maritime Activities in the Arctic. Survey Report
(Research report; Forskningsrapport, 2019)Recently, there has been wide agreement that WWIC information services for polar areas require further development in line with end-users needs (Dawson et al., 2017; Lamers, Duske, et al., 2018). Earlier studies found that forecasters and service developers have little insight into how their services are actually used, where, and in what contexts (Jeuring, Knol, & Sivle, forthcoming). To tailor ... -
Permagov D3.2 Report on the Development of Diagnostic Tool: An overview of PERMAGOV’s tool co-development process
(Research report; Forskningsrapport, 2024)Institutional barriers are critical obstacles to policy implementation. Such barriers hamper the performance of marine policies and may also limit the potential for adapting governance arrangements in order to improve policy performance. Instigating transformation within longstanding governance arrangements is very challenging and is often hampered by institutional barriers such as path dependency, ... -
Sea ice variability and maritime activity around Svalbard in the period 2012–2019
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-10-12)Climate change is strongly impacting the Arctic environment, leading to rapid sea ice loss. In some sectors, the retreating ice edge is perceived as an opportunity to expand and develop economic activities. Previous studies show this development in the Canadian and Russian Arctic. This paper examines mobility patterns of cruise ships and fishing vessels around Svalbard, a major hotspot of maritime ... -
Sustainability conflicts in the blue economy: planning for offshore aquaculture and offshore wind energy development in Norway
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-10-11)Blue economy developments entail an industrialization of the world’s ocean and coastal areas, placing growing pressures on the marine environment and ecosystems. Moreover, the competition for ocean space and resources increases the likelihood for social conflicts. Marine spatial planning has been presented as a tool that can avoid or mitigate conflicts. However, there is a need for a more thorough ... -
Toward valuable weather and sea-ice services for the marine Arctic: exploring user–producer interfaces of the Norwegian Meteorological Institute
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-10-30)Recognition is growing that valuable weather, water, ice and climate (WWIC) services for marine, Arctic environments can only be produced in close dialogue with its actual users. This denotes an acknowledgement that knowing how users incorporate WWIC information in their activities should be considered throughout the information value chain. Notions like co-production and user engagement are current ...
