The project is aimed to reveal the aesthetic process of landscape formation in Hotellneset, a place used for coal storage for over100 years. The site overlap by different geology layers pile up by several human activities through times. Wind , snow comes and go, vegetation grow and die , but coal remain The concept is aim to embody the special environment aesthetics through small inventions which build from exsisting material - a coal wall, it lead topography change with different natural phenomenon, such as wind, fog and snow , for it to guide people to feel and experience the history path and time. Eventually Coal wall will collapse through time , erosion by wind flow with water. it is life cycle of landscape ,a layer of time.

Longyearbyen Longyearbyen It is a small town contain 2000 people, with one airport , one commercial port Bykaia , one industrial port Kullkaia ,9 different mines , one power plant use coal energy ,one uninversity , one supermarket and 500 houses . The Main Industrial From 1903 , the main activity in longyearbyen is the coal mining, there are 9 different mines in town , it have 70,000 tons of coal annually ,70% transport out to the world and 30% of it stay in the island to generate power for electracity. An abandoned mine on the cliff for 60 years.

Coal Coal is the fossil of vegetation There are four main phases that coal goes throgh before it is considered coal : Peat - Lingnite - Bitumen - Arthraite. Because of the plate tectonics, billion years ago , svalbard was located in tropical zone which vegetation grow well and rapidly so the geology contain numerous of vegetation's fossil, with the low temperature of the climate up on Arctic it form the best quality of coal in the world now. A prehistoric fossilised forest that helped trigger a dramatic change in the Earth's climate around 380 million years ago has been discovered ,Scientists found the preserved tree trunks and stumps, still where they had been rooted in the ground, on the island of Svalbard in Norway. At the time, during the late Devonian period, Svalbard would have been close to the equator.It is thought sediment from a nearby lake swamped the trees, killing them but then helping to fossilise them as it was transformed into rock over millions of years.

"Svalbard is in rich with varieties of Invaluable ecosystem also vulnerable to climate change and environmental pressures. how can we think ahead before we damage them with the Irresistible rapid industrial development? How can we plan a better future for svalbard with the globalization influence in trade aspect instead of unpractical protection to against the global trends? " 2016 Reseach Project

World Perspective Due to the climate change from research it will be ice free arctic in 2050. The positive impact will be the shipping traffic increase because of the profit it can bring for shorter shipping route between Pacific to Atlantic Ocean. sea transportation is responsible for the carriage of over 90% of world trade and it is important to function the world economic. The arctic shipping route has brought huge interest for local government and shipping companies for it can reduce over 20 days of the transportation period compare with the equatorial route. From the image research by geographer Laurence Smith the ice free condition will open the route through canada's Northwest passage and russia's northern sea route and the most efficient one which go directly across North pole. Therefore both from the geological perspective and economic aspect, Svalbard has the highly potential to be the best location for develop a transit hub to support this massive traffic in the future.

On the other hand , Svalbard is in rich with varieties of Invaluable ecosystem also vulnerable to climate change and environmental pressures. how can we think ahead before we damage them with the Irresistible rapid industrial development? How can we plan a better future for svalbard with the globalization influence in trade aspect instead of unpractical protection to against the global trends?

Svalbard as the center of the world A recent study by the Polar Research Institute of China concludes that Arctic shipping will play a major role in the country’s future trade networks and indicates that by the year 2020 between 5-15% of China’s trade value, about 300-900 billion USD, could pass through the Arctic. (Doyle, 2013) Researchers at Dalian Maritime University suggest that Arctic shipping will alter the “market patterns of the global shipping industry.” (Salvadove, 2013).

NSR The Northern Sea Route Information Office lists 71 transits for 2013 including 41 vessels traveled the entire length of the NSR and qualify as full transits. An additional 23 vessels either departed from or arrived at ports inside the NSR . The goods Transporting total amount is 1.19 million tons, including Oil products/ Iron Ore/ Gerneral Cargo / Coast Guard / Coal / Ballast, The Key hubs for this regional shuttle service are Murmansk and Arkhangelsk in the west, Ob Bay in the center, and Pevek in the east. Out of 71 total transits, 43 were exclusively between Russian ports. ref:The Arctic Institute

Port Type Analysis Many major harbors in the world turns the management concept from pollution control to “green port” or “eco port” strategies, and integrate harbor and city as a integrated entity. the concept of “green port”, is to creates a port city with following idea: - Low environmental impact - High bio-diversity, - Recovered habitat, - Healthy community, - High profit. so for port in longyearbyen for 2050 the capacity should be able to containe 5000 TUE / day 1.8 million / year , and the berth should not less then 200 meters for each .
27
Port Develop Phasing Comparing From phase one to phase 6 are the phasing for a port developing , we can see the regular pattern of it and also predict what is next to the Longyearbyen, Will Longyearbyen follow the same port develope phasing in the near future? with the new technology and extrem weather condition ,what can we do for preparing to adapt the future plan ? can we reduce the polluted impact time ?

Coal Industrial in Longyearbyen Longyearbyen is the largest settlement on Svalbard with 2000 people. Tourism, Arctic research and coal mining are the main industries. It is the only place in Norway still fully relaying on coal power. Due to its geographical location it has high transport activities. Longyearbyen transports large amounts of coal, tourists and garbage to the mainland, and hence cause large carbon emissions. From 2000-2007 the Carbon emission increased 1.2 % from 330,637 to 424,787 tons , 20 % for coal industries, 50% for energy, and 42% for the marine transportation.
30
Energy in Longyearbyen The power plant for Longyearbyen was built in 1983, it is the only coal-fired generating facility in Norway and supplies the settlement with electricity and heat. 25,000 tons of coal are burnt each year, which emits 60 000 tonnes of carbon dioxide. The coal mines in Longyearbyen have produces 70 000 tonnes of coal annually since 1975.. The coal not required for electricity generation is exported – primarily to German steel mills. Research shows that a carbon capture and storage plant ( CCS) is being planned to could replace the old power plant and thus reduce the emissions for Longyearbyen in the future. In only 5 years the city could have a full scale plant.
The nearest construction material company in the north is located in Kjøpsvik, 600 km sea miles away from longyearbyen. 168,000 tons of clean coal ash can be reuse for the port construction.
31
Phase Design This project is a feasibility and process design which negotiates with the environment toward a more sustainable freight situation for Longyearbyen. The projects anticipates three fundamental for a green future in Longyearbyen: 1.Reduction of unnecessary cargo transportation 2.Self-sufficiency of energy supply for Longyearbyen 3.

Exising Water system E8 Water Quality Threat The construction of a new E8 north of Fagernes brings up concerns of how it may affect the existing water conditions and consequencly damage or destroy the special kildemyr habitat and the Fagernes community drinking water supply. listed concerns with E8 and water: 1. Effects on quality through contamination by accident. 2. Impact on quality through normal operations and change in types of sediment loads in the catchment area. 3. Effects on quantity, through that road (incl. Construction road, embankments, etc.) Possibly ports of important infiltration area. Removal of surface water from the road will reduce the amount water that infiltrated.
38
Rambol’s E8 East Proposal Analysis pt.1 (Ramfjordmoen) Norbotn Kildemyr These are two important peat marsh bogs within Nordbotn valley. Despite being low in biodiversity, they contain a red listed moss, and in themselves are redlisted biotopes (rare for the area). These bog systems formed in the valley from water which is daylighted from the side of Storbakken on the west side of the valley. Fagernes Drinking Water There are 3 wells drilled in Nordbotn valley, just north of Fagernes. Only 1 of these wells are in use, but that water serves 50 homes, 1 school, and 1 kindergarden. Water in these wells come from natural collection and infiltration in the surrounding area.
39
Concept The E8 through Ramfjordmoen cut across linear systems located in the valley including streams, rivers topography, human and animal trails, historic pitfalls and property lines. This transverse cut creates a disturbance in the existing equilibrium of the Nordbotn, Ramfjordmoen system. We see the proposed road as much more than a response to transportation demands for the area, but a possible jump starting of natural process towards creating an artificial river in an byproduct ecosystem which only exists as a direct result of cutting into strobakken 8 meters. This design gesture can be seen as the beginning stage of a new faux ecosystem created by accident in man’s infrastructural fears over nature. Similar to an asteroid crashing down in a rural landscape, it causes an immediate disturbance to the assumed equilibrium established within the ecosystem that then begins to build back in a new and unique way which would have only happened with a direct disturbance. This project is not a critique of the thousand years including clear cut forest , hundreds of reindeer catchment pits along the valley, agriculture settlements etc. the question is , is there a way to change the mono-functionality of this new construction into a seamless piece and important feature to the environment and social setting its placed.
40
Construction / Deconstruction Like the 20 or so pitfalls dug in a line along the topography of Storbakken. They have filled with dirt leaves, plants water and over time merged back into surrounding once their use and sunctionality were lost to the users and allowed to slip back into the ‘ no maintenance required ‘ motto of time. What will become of this new major cut through Ramfjordmoen? This drastically changes the flows of water, nutrients, humans, animals, and as result cause possible issues for the system. But if planned with the immediate and future concerns in mind could this change somehow be used to our advantage? We see the new E8 cut through Strobakken in Norboth as an opportunity to fix some of the present issues of water quality and protection of a unique sensitive habitat, while also having a chance to establish a new unique ecosystem and biotope in the area which can grow and eventually integrate into the surroundings over a much longer time-line.

Site Section Follow the existing hiking trail the project creat a pathway with the same level of road in +70, 8%slope in both side of mountain there has bridges to connect the high hill in the middle of valley , it is also a place to experience the different biotopes whlile crossing it. The project change the direction of snow plowing direction into the middle valley instead of road side, it is a 30 meters wide snow water collect area , it can prevent the tall and straight snow wall in the winter time, also there has snow catch pit on the slope with much wider road side ditch to collect snow sliding from mountain top , but also maintain the shape of the snow cover follow the terrain to create the view reference to the river valley.

Rethinking Infrastructure

"The project analyzes past and current forms of road infrastructure in the peri-urban of Lørenskog, and explores how automation in transportation will potentially influence new city forms, landscapes, and infrastructural designs." 2015 Autumn Semester Team: Hsiang Hsiang Wang Miles Hamaker Åshild Mienna Responsible for: -Site invesgation & analysis -Mapping -Site planning -Design

Neighborhoods at the peri-urban edge
Norway is leading the world in renewable and sustainable energy solutions and Oslo-Akerhus are making big investments towards new sustainable transportation options. 950 million krs were funded by the counties to meet a 10 year, 100% fossil fuel free transportation goal by the year 2025. Lørenskog is also the most active transportation vein located directly between these two counties and will most likely find themselves receiving large chunk of this funding.
46
But, what does that mean for transportation infrastructure? Despite this huge governmental commitment to alternative fuel for cars, the design of new infrastructural and forms of transportation have not lived up to the rapidly advancing technologies in vehicles. Maybe a new fuel type isn’t influential enough to invoke these futuristic ideas in transportation, but automation of vehicles can. And why aren’t we thinking about automation? As quoted from the Paolo Santi of MIT Sensible City Lab at the Future Cities Forum in 2014: Predictions say that most vehicles will be self-driving by year 2035. Now is the right moment to start thinking of how that city will be.” In our project autonomous Lørenskog we take on this challenge of envisioning and planning for the coming technology of automation and the already trending shared economy lifestyle. In order to create a speculative, yet down to earth and sensible design, we focused on understanding the structure and complications of existing road infrastructure and proposed a two part design: retrofitting this existing infrastructure at the peri-urban edge for autonomous vehicles and designed a new type of neighborhood which attached to the urban fabric The Peri-urban edge of metropolitan areas has always been a testing ground for new thoughts in landscape architecture, landscape infrastructure, housing, and mobility design. Lørenskog is a perfect example of this kind of development with many edges where development. The urban- edge of Lørenskog is mixture of housing, conservation land, agricultural uses, and recreational interfaces. Our proposal accepts Lørenskog’s heterogeneous land use mixtures, but explores new proportions and interfaces of them.

Project Overview More than half of the individuals in the world’s population live near coastal areas,accounting for more than 60% of the total production. Because harbors, ports, and waterfront areas are major transition points from land to ocean, they function as hubs of interflowing commodities and information. “Green ports” and “eco ports” have recently become the core strategies for port development in the world. Many port cities set green ports into action and transformed ports in order to balance the economy and promote the environment. To protect the oceans and increase the competitiveness of port cities, the proposed research details a green port plan for Taiwan. The goal of this plan is to create a port city with a low environmental impact, high bio-diversity, recovered habitat, healthy community, and high profit. Taiwan now have five international ports, due to the importance and location ,we chose Port of Kaohsiung as the site to demonstrate our plan.
Port of Kaohsiung Port of Kaohsiung is located in the southern Taiwan as a major International port which has 6 container terminals and 116 piers with an annual handling capacity of 10 million TEU per year. For nearly five decades, Kaohsiung port plays an impartant role as a heavy industrial zone. The area contained oil refinery, thermal power station, steel factory and ship build companies also plenty of industrial business within 4500 Ha land.

Investigate & Analysis Upon investigate the port area it was apparent disconnected with sociaty from its surroundings,which cause by the legal boundaries , land planning and diverse authorities, furthermore the port operations and urban development may produce different competing between space and environment. From the figure shows northern part of the port area is much more well developed for public society. Government now have planing and constructing in several districts main to re-open the waterfront for recreational use. also to move down most of industrial and commercial ports to the south land combine with land reclamating plan to build a petrochemical Industry area outsite the terminal 6. Our purpose is to make an integrat plan which base on pursuing a green port stander for increase the competitiveness of port cities also to protect the environment .
Step 1. Through building the data base of port area to analysis the usage of port space and the possible environmental impact and the range of effected area.

C.Port City Follow the principle of sustainable construction to creat a symbolic city image base on the future plan. D.Green Trade Zone The area are now in a transition period, as the adventage of it’s central location we creat a green business demonstration area. E.Eco System Buffer Zone A buffer zone between north and south part, to plan green belt to chain the port and city like the green transportation system and park system. F.Green Industrail Zone Creat an incentives system for business guilde them to fellow the green port guide line to build sustainable industrial zone . G.Industrial Restoration Zone To creat a system base on the research of environmental remediation to restoration the brown land. H.Eco - compensation Zone The abandon construction area bring a natural habitat accidently ,plan to build an environment friendly space as an eco-compensation zone to recover from port development.
59
Sections and Masterplan With this highly polluted environment and large gap between industrial port and city,we became concerned about several aspects in sustainable port construction; environmental planning; society and management. We did a harbor examination to build a full data base with geographic information systems in the first year. In the following year we developed the idea of green port guidelines to different stakeholders for the government, shipping companies, and citizens. On the basis of these works we created a Master plan of Kaohsiung green ports and also held a public participation event to demonstrate our works and give education to the port community. Data was also collected from users in order to pursue a better plan in the second year. This project brought outlook to the possibility of joining the green port alliance by European emission as an Asian country. Design Sketch

Green Port Guide Line
Taiwan has five international ports,currently all of them are facing in a transition phase , depends on the age and the status of piers it can classify into four different type : The vacant pier, A place planning to become a pier , The pier which is planning to move and the pier now is working. With different location the strategy of spatial planning will be different, This guide line is to offer a suitable way to do any pier plan.
The color block represent the type of pier and the surrounding land use. upper block means the statute of pier and below is the guide for space planning . As an example, the figure shows if there has a necessary to build a pier over the estuary between mountains, follow the guide you should preserve at least half width space of the river as a buffer zone to reduce the impact of the environment.

The Shipping Business The influence of globalization has expanded, increasing the needs of interstate trade. According to the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development, total seaborne trade cargo more than doubled, from 3,700 million tons to nearly 8,500 million tons, in just 30 years—from 1980 to 2011. As a result, seaborne trading has become a giant industry in today’s world trading market. Furthermore compared with air and land transportations, sea transportation has the advantages of being safe, stable, and efficient. Higher handle capacity and worldwide circulation reduce costs and strengthen competitiveness with other types of shipping. Based on IMO’s study of international ship traffic patterns, globalization has influenced the seaborne industry. In Asia, Singapore has played the role as a major hub in regional shipping routes. Located at a strategic point, Singapore has demonstrated its particularity and identity as a “global distributing center.” In addition A study by Dr. Jean-Paul Rodrigue says the shortest path to circum-navigate the world is the so-called circum-equatorial route using the Panama Canal, the Strait of Gibraltar, the Suez Canal and the Strait of Malacca Involves an additional hierarchy in the network structure with a global maritime shipping system with a circum-equatorial "conveyor belt" serviced by high capacity containerships (8,000 to 12,000 TEU).we assume in this case Port of Singapore will acts as an interface between several major systems of circulation.

The Enviroment of shipping route According to the study from the American Chemical Society (ACS) on air pollution from the shipping industry, Singapore is situated on the shipping route and faces a phenomenal amount of air pollution. Container ships are one of the major sources of carbon emissions based on transportation type. On average, a 6,600-ton container ship discharges 8.36 g/ tkm of carbon emission. Based on the total number of ships (19,290 ships) that trade through Singapore, Singapore’s container industry emits approximately 2,025,450 tons of carbon emission; therefore, Singapore is not only an importexport business country but also faces serious environmental responsibility. Singapore is part of the East Asian-Australian flyway. And at different times of the years, the migratory birds are found in different parts of the flyway. Habitats in the South China Sea include mangrove forests, seagrass beds, coral reefs and soft-bottom communities. The Coral Triangle comprises the highest coral diversity in the world. Despite having only a total land area of 707 sq km, Singapore is home to a significant array of plant and animal species. Singapore is Located on the Bird Migration Route also the Hot Spot of Fishing Resources and the Coral Reef Triangle.furthermore the area peovides food and resources to over 100 million people within this area.
1,120,000 ton of CO2 /per year It calculates that annual emissions from the world's merchant fleet have already reached 1.12bn tonnes of CO2, or nearly 4.5% of all global emissions of the main greenhouse gas.

The Port of Singapore Since 1986, Singapore has been the busiest port in the world in terms of shipping tonnage, with an annual average of 140,000 vessel calls. It is the focal point for some 200 shipping lines with links to more than 600 ports in over 120 countries worldwide. Global connectivity is the key to Singapore’s success as a world-leading hub for container transhipment, with over 29 million TEU handled in 2008. Singapore is part of the East Asian-Australian flyway. And at different times of the years, the migratory birds are found in different parts of the flyway. Habitats in the South China Sea include mangrove forests, seagrass beds, coral reefs and soft-bottom communities. The Coral Triangle comprises the highest coral diversity in the world. Despite having only a total land area of 707 sq km, Singapore is home to a significant array of plant and animal species. Using Singapore alone as a case in point, the industry to a large extent is an important part of the Singapore economy contributing approximately seven per cent of Singapore’s GDP and employing over 96,000 people. The cluster comprises more than 5,000 maritime establishments in the following sectors: (a) Shipping and Port related sectors; (b) Offshore, Shipbuilding and Repair; and (c) Maritime Services such as shipping finance, marine insurance and maritime legal and arbitration services.

Mangroves are actually valuable products and essential 'ecosystem services' such as nurseries for seafood, protection from coastal erosion and storms, not to mention tsunamis. Though land reclamation has increased 17% of the land area, the developments has buried much of Singapore’s coastal habitats. Estuarine and intertidal habitats have been lost to reservoir construction. These have reduced coastal ecosystems drastically. Mangrove forest cover has been reduced from 13% in 1820 to only 0.5% of the present land area. Many of the offshore islands and patch reefs around Singapore have been reclaimed or merged into larger islands. Most coral reefs in Singapore have lost up to 65% of their live coral cover since 1986.

Project Overview Over the past decades, flat and spacious coastal areas have been seen various usages and development. The contention and conflict between human development and natural conservation along the coastal area occur all around the world. The project, Aogu Wetland and Forest Park, is located in the southwest area of Taiwan, and has experienced different stages of development before it eventually reverted to natural wetland. On the estuary of the Bei-Gang River, the site was a typical tidal mud wetland before 1964. The site began the C-shaped seawall construction and reclaimed over 1,000-hectare of lands from sea in 1964 because of the farming and livestock industry. Historically, the land was desalinated and prepared for a sugar plantation, a pig farm and a fish farm. After the land subsided and several serious inundation events by the sea occurred, the soil become saline and the production of sugar ceased on the site. In 2001, the site was selected as an afforestation area. The landscape and habitat have changed dramatically in the past 40 years, and the site now consists of a combination of natural wetland and artificial woodland. The Aogu Wetland and Forest Park comes from this changing process of environment. The Park is the showplace of the process of natural systems. The site has been reclaimed and reverted back to a coastal wetland, which unexpectedly has become a refuge for migratory birds and other wildlife. The aim of this project focuses on establishing a series of conservation and re-habitation strategies on sites reclaimed for human development, and emphasizes the site as a seeding process for the natural systems, as well as environmental education, eco-tourism and cultural sustainability
The site located in the major route of Asia migration birds.Thus it plays the critical role in habitat conservation in both regional and global scale.

The Planting Strategie Due to the afforestation project, the low diversity of the woodlands, and several species are not in a healthy condition because of the salty and wet soil. The master plan alters the micro-topography, and uses the native species to recover the afforestation area gradually. The planting strategies include ecological replanting, buffering replanting, wind-breaking replanting, and historical-replanting strategies. The master plan focuses on the emerging coastal environment strategically with the following sequence: 1) get detailed surveys of the tree species in each 100 by 400 meter land plot 2) create micro-topography changes and replant native species to re-habitat the diversity of planting 3) allow the environment return to the natural succession through time; and 4) merge diverse landscape and related activities.
Single tree species in each 400X100 meter plot Use micro topography change and replant native species to rehabitat the diversity of planting Let the environment do the natural succession through time Diverse landscape and related activities

Viewpoints switching For architect and landscape architect ,we never know how to cooperate properly in this harsh industrial environment. a project without proper intergration cannot be a "work". While reading the site sketch and perspective of Siza's work Boa nova we excitedly to see the high respect to the environment and has great image about the equilibrium with landscape. And so, the travel begin .......
The viewpoint from landscape architecture: Unexpectedly I found there is a refinery which is located just 600 meters away from the site. The environment is much different from the time when Siza designed it, will the meaning between architecture and landscape be different in these opposite scene now ? Although I can still feel the roof which was designed a way to merge in the nature in the rocks, but if it is possible to reconsider the site,will the scene be the same? The view point from architecture: In the project the plan is formed by the surrounding rock. Then how are the different shapes of geometry connected together? How do we use the interspace beneath? For example, the toilet is to which the human body is the most sensitive in the space of a living unit. The crooked wall which seems purposely will limit the pose when usingthe toilet. This pose actually comes from the natural angle outside. I started to concern the detail in the human body scale, further more thinking about the outside environment. The main point I concern is how the minimal scale of space is influenced by the environment and how the environment is influenced by human, To discover the world by switching our viewpoint may crate some new ideas.
92
Viewpoint Switching As two different professions we hope to communicate with eachother and to observe how the city infrastructure is built by doing so, we want to compare and explore the form of our living pace and experience the world in different scale and viewpoint. furthermore we will pause our present tense and stay in some places for few months in order to explore and enjoy the "time" .

Salinas Swimming pool Salinas Swimming pool / Câmara de Lobos, Madeira 2013 /01/11 Madeira is a archipelago located in the south-west of Portugal near northern Africa. By volcanic eruption and epeirogenic activity the land uplift in the middle become a long and narrow island the shape is just like Taiwan which lie on the atlantic ocean. Madeira is 50 times smaller then Taiwan and the population is only 1 % of ours. Madeira is classify as Mediterranean climate the average temperature is 19 degree for whole year. and it is currently the second richest region in Portugal by their tourism business. Salinas Swimming pool Located in the south of Madeira, Câmara de Lobos, Funchal. ďźŒsteep volcanic cliff with dramatic wave erosion isolated the connection between village and the nature environment. the project has been designed to be a public space which combine the natural resources with artificial structure also created a safe place with environmental aesthetics for locals. They chose amount rocks which is really match with the vocanic terrain, inculde the texture and the color. They built a landscape passway extend with cliff, also they use the site-specific geomorphic conditions to create many interesting scenery, you can discover different view by turn in every corner. and there is a natural swimming pool in the end of sidewalk to offer people a relaxing place to enjoy the big landscape.
