Registreringen viser et høyere antall grensekryssende elg i trekket i vintersessongen 2006-2007 i forhold til vintersesongen 2005-2006. Totalt ble det observert 91 elg som krysset elva i registreringsperioden, mot 48 forrige vintersesong. Nettoinnvandringen til Norge siste vinter var 61 dyr i forhold til 37 året før. Kalveandelen i både Øvre og Nedre Pasvik var høyere enn foregående år, beregnet til 36 % av elgene på trekk i forhold til 20 % året før.

Populasjonsovervåkning av brunbjørn (Ursus arctos) i Norges fem nordligste fylker ble gjennomført med hjelp av DNA-analyse av ekskrementer og hårprøver. Totalt ble det analysert 750 ulike prøver i undersøkelsen. Av disse prøvene ble 720 prøver samlet inn i 2006, mens resten var fra tidligere år. Statens naturoppsyn samlet inn prøver hele sesongen, mens i Trøndelagsfylkene ble det i tillegg samlet inn prøver om høsten av elgjegere. Resultatet fra DNA ekstraksjonen gav 34% fungerende prøver, med stor variasjon for ulike fylker (10-50%). Prøvene som gav DNA utbytte ble analysert to ganger med seks ulike mikrosatellitt markører (G1D, G10B, UarMU05, UarMu09, UarMU15 og UarMU26) og en kjønnstest. For 2006, gav DNA identifisering 71 ulike individer, med en overvekt av hannbjørner (62 %). Rapporten inneholder også analyse av hårprøver fra Sør-Varanger i 2005, samt noen andre 2005 prøver fra andre områder. En gjentatt analyse av 166 faesprøver fra Øst-Finnmark i 2005 ble også utført. Videre er innsamlingen av prøver i ”Midt-Norge” (Trøndelagsfylkene og Nordland-sør) analysert, og et bestandsestimat for regionen gav et estimat på 35 individer. Resultatene i rapporten blir vurdert opp mot feltobservasjoner og feilkilder, og videre arbeid blir diskutert.

Oil transportation from the Russian part of the Barents Region along the Norwegian coast had insignificant volumes before 2002. However, in 2002 there was a dramatic increase in oil shipment, when 4 million tons of oil was transported across the northern regions. In 2003, the volume reached 8 million tons. The trend continued in 2004, and about 12 million tons of export oil and oil products were delivered from the Russian part of the Barents Region to the western market along the Norwegian coast. In 2005, the oil shipment volumes dropped to 9.5 million tons, and in 2006 increased to 10.5 million tons. In the present report on oil transportation from the Russian North, we have given special attention to the description of the existing and prospective offshore and onshore oil shipment terminals, and their connection to the oil reserves on one hand and to the export routes on the other. In this report we demonstrate that even without a trunk oil pipeline to the Barents Sea coast, the annual oil exports from the Russian part of the Barents Region may reach a volume of about 50-80 million tons in the next decade. About 50 million tons of crude oil and oil products can be delivered by railway to the Murmansk ports in the Barents Sea, and Kandalaksha and Arkhangelsk in the White Sea. In addition, up to 20 million tons of oil will come from the northern oil fields in the Nenets Autonomous Region, and from Prirazlomnoye oil field in the Pechora Sea. Prirazlomnoye is the first offshore industrial oil field in the Russian part of the Barents Region, the operations there will go on all year round, and most of the year in ice-covered waters. Dolginskoye oil field, which is also in the Pechora Sea and estimated to be three times as big as Prirazlomnoye, can produce the first oil in 2013. There will be stable increase in the amounts of oil shipped from Western Siberia. The terminals in the Kara Sea can load 2-3 million tons of crude oil for transhipment in the Kola Bay of the Barents Sea. In the European part of Russia there are three possibilities for shipping oil for export. The first way is through the Black Sea via the Bosporus to the Mediterranean Sea. Another route is through the Baltic Sea via the Gulf of Finland and Kattegat. The third alternative is to transport oil through the Barents Sea along the coasts of north-western Russia and northern Norway. Out of these three options only the northern one, the Barents Sea route, can provide the possibility of stable shipping large amounts directly to European and other major harbours, avoiding the challenges of transit through the neighbouring countries or heavy traffic in the sea straits. Oil pollution prevention should be the central issue during oil transportation in the Barents Sea. In this report we pay attention to the environmental safety matters in oil transportation and Norwegian-Russian co-operation in the oil pollution prevention. The increasing internationalisation of the transport system in the region appears to affect the present trend toward more advanced and safer terminals and vessels that comply with international safety rules. Early warning and notification of ships passing through the Norwegian waters has been used more frequently and on voluntary basis, but still not as often as desired and can be arranged within a bilateral Russian-Norwegian agreement. The establishment of traffic control centres in Vardø and Murmansk will considerably improve the oil spill prevention and response preparedness.

Oil shipment in the Barents Region had insignificant volumes before 2002. In 2002, there was a dramatic increase in oil transportation, when 4 million tons of oil was shipped across the northern regions of Russia and Norway. In 2003, the volume reached 8 million tons. The trend continued in 2004, and about 12 million tons of export oil and oil products were delivered from the Russian Arctic to the western market along the Norwegian coast. In 2005 and 2006, the annual oil shipment volume was on the level of 10 million tons. The terminals loading Russian oil for export in the Barents Region have been continuously developed, and the overall shipping capacity has been enlarged. In the recent study of oil shipment in the Barents Region we gave special attention to the existing and prospective offshore and onshore oil shipment terminals and their connection to the oil reserves on one hand and to the export routes on the other. We see now that even without a trunk oil pipeline to the Barents Sea coast, the annual oil exports from the Russian part of the Barents Region may reach a volume of about 50-80 million tons in the next decade. Crude oil and oil products will be delivered to the transshipment terminals in the ice free area of the Barents Sea by railway and shuttle tankers, and further shipped to export by line tankers. Oil pollution prevention should be the central issue during oil transportation in the Barents Sea.

I dette notatet vil jeg gi noen innfallsvinkler for hvordan miljøvernet kan få en bedre plass i samarbeidet mellom Norge og Russland. Først vil jeg se på det bilaterale miljøsamarbeidet, og deretter på skipstransporten av olje som passerer kysten av Norge på vei fra Russland. Mine kommentarer er fremsatt med utgangspunkt i min bakgrunn fra det bilaterale miljøsamarbeidet mellom Norge og Russland, hvor jeg særlig har fordypet meg i spørsmål knyttet til oljetransport med skip. http://www.regjeringen.no/nb/dep/ud/kampanjer/refleks/innspill/miljo_klima/Frantzen.html?id=492832

Fiskepredasjon i innsjøer skjer gjennom fiskespisende fisk og er med på å påvirke næringsdynamikken i akvatiske økosamfunn. Gjennom feltundersøkelser er vist at ørret (Salmo trutta L.) kan være en storkonsument av små byttefisk, og at tilgangen av byttefiskarter i egnede størrelser og høye tettheter er viktige faktorer som påvirker næringsvalget til predatoren.
