The Lofoten Islands are characterised by their mountains and peaks, sheltered inlets, stretches of seashore and large virgin areas. The highest mountain in Lofoten is Higravstinden (1,161 metres (3,809 feet)) in Austvågøy; the Møysalen National Park just northeast of Lofoten has mountains reaching 1,262 metres (4,140 feet).
In the rest of the Norwegian Sea, it is found only during the reproduction season, at the Lofoten Islands, [25] whereas Pollachius virens and haddock spawn in the coastal waters. [8] Mackerel is an important commercial fish. The coral reefs are populated by different species of the genus Sebastes. [24]
The difference between low tide and high tide is small on the southern coast and large in the north; ranging from on average 0.17 m in Mandal to about 0.30 m in Oslo and Stavanger, 0.90 m in Bergen, 1.80 m in Trondheim, Bodø and Hammerfest and as much as 2.17 m in Vadsø.
Svolvær is located in the Lofoten archipelago on the southern coast of the island of Austvågøya, facing the open sea of the Vestfjorden to the south, and with mountains immediately to the north. The most famous mountain, Svolværgeita , had its first recorded climb in 1910.
Austvågøya [2] is the northeasternmost and largest of the larger islands in the Lofoten archipelago in Nordland county, Norway. It is located between the Vestfjorden and the Norwegian Sea. The island of Vestvågøya lies to the southwest and the large island of Hinnøya to the northeast. In 2017, the island had about 9,000 residents. [1]
There is also a meteorological weather station in the island group, near the lighthouse, with one of the longest recording series in Nordland county. Skrova has a temperate oceanic climate (Cfb) despite the location 180 kilometres (110 mi) north of the Arctic Circle. The warmest temperature recorded is 30.4 °C (86.7 °F) in June 1972.
This rate increases to 9.4 to 13.6% per decade (0.73 to 1.07 million square km per decade) for the summer sea ice minimum; hence it is most rapid in summer (Figure 3). Furthermore, IPCCs 5th Synthesis Report illustrates the continued reduction in extent of Arctic July–August–September (summer) average sea ice between 1900 and 2100. [26]
Moskenesøya (lit. ' Moskenes Island ') is an island at the southern end of the Lofoten archipelago in Nordland county, Norway.The 186-square-kilometre (72 sq mi) island is shared between Moskenes Municipality and Flakstad Municipality. [1]
