Varanger is good birding destination, because Varanger is where the Gulf stream meets the climate of the Arctic. Seas are kept open and the shallow Varanger fjord is facing east, therefore, it protect birds from big waves caused by west winds in Barents sea., on top of this (and because of) is one of the richest fishing fields of Norway. All this combined makes ground for spectacular bird life. Last several years, there is rapid development of infrastructure for birding, including the architecture , the maps and info to local knowledge of birds and sites. Sources:

Biotope informed and “educated” the local people about how special the Varanger peninsula is for birders. This have created a local pride for the local fauna and the locals have a greater knowledge to shear with people visiting Vardø.
Biotope is architectural office with special expertise on birds and birdwatching. The office locates in Vardø. The office deal with the project about building public architecture for people birding. It create the tourism possibility from birding. They did a lot of research about Varanger birds, and provide birding information which is include map, birds knowledge. Biotope organized Gullfest (bird festival) which start from April 2012. After one birdhide build in Vardø, it became a part of National tourist route project in Varanger. Biotope is also have a good way to connect local business. The local fishing industry and accommodation facilities is also include in their birding trip introduction to visitors. The number of guest is increasing in NORDPOL KRO Hotel which is local hotel. Biotope informed and “educated” the local people about how special the Varanger peninsula is for birders. This have created a local pride for the local fauna and the locals have a greater knowledge to shear with people visiting Vardø.
BIRDING TRIP DESIGN
HORNØYA The bird cliffs of Hornøya outside Vardø in Varanger is a fantastic place. This is home to 150 000 birds, of a wide variety of species. It is one of Varanger’s most popular places to visit for birders and bird photographers. Sand Eels, Capelin, and Herring constitute the main diet of nearly all the seabird species seen on the islands. Gulls and Kittiwakes also take advantage of fish waste from trawlers and the fishing port of Vardø. The manuring effect of this is evident in the lush growth of scurvy-grass and sorrel. The gull colony on the two islands is one of the largest in Europe and numbers 40-50 000pairs. Alcids are an essential part of the bird cliffs, with 5-10 000 pairs of Puffin, 3-3500 pairs of guillemosts, 500 pairs of Razorbills and 3-400 pairs of the Arctic(Brünichs) Guillemot. Numerous other species also breed or visit the islands.

A street art festival curated by the Norwegian artist Pøbel. The idea behind the project is give attention to the depopulation of Northern Norway, and make something worn out beautiful and interesting; to give attention to remote areas and prove to the youth that everything doesn’t have to happen in the big cities. Locals really like this project, and started to proud of their land.

The rich fishing stocks in the surrounding sea are the main reason for the town’s existence. Traces of settlement from 6,000 – 7,000 B.C. have been found.
The first fortress was erected by Haakon V Magnusson in 1306 and was called Varghøya.
Vardø had developed into a trading centre and an important part of the Pomor trade network between Russia and Northern Norway.
Vardø established as a municipality.

Fishing and Industry accounts for a big amount of them.
Fish used to be the main industry in Vardø, but today you hardly see any larger fish boats in the harbour and there is almost no industry left. However, fish together with public sector still remain the dominant activity in the municipality.
Military and monitoring
Military presence has continued in Vardø(60 employees), but after the cold war the amount of Norwegian military personnel has been reduced to a minimum. Today there is no military presence at the old fortress.
State-Based Institution
The city have various state based institution, like the Norwegian Coastal Administration, the Norwegian Armed Forces, the Norwegian Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority Service for Victims of Crime and the Police Certificate Office. The Norwegian Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority Service for Victims of Crime and the Police Certificate Office do have about 75 employees and many of them are lawyers.

SUMMER WIND
Vardø is Norway’s only town in the Arctic climate zone. This means that the average temperature per month never climbs above ten degrees. Understandably this has consequences for Vardø’s vegetation and wildlife. Vardø’s only tree died some years ago. Vardø is extremely exposed to wind. Vardø has the stormiest days in Norway. The wind is especially strong on Valen and Strandgata where the streetscape works as an icy wind tunnel. Predominant wind is from the southwest in winter and northwest of the summer. A large tidal range occurs generally on the shores of continents, Vardø is a island but really close to mainland, so, the tidal range is quite large in Vardø, The highest water level at Vardø reached 3.2m. From 23 November to 21 January the sun disappears under the horizon and from 16 May to 29 July is the midnight sun present.

Global warming cause increasing dangerous storm events and associated wave activity. In Barents sea, the frequency of very high (more than 5 meters) waves model simulations show a growth of activity in the middle and end of 21st century. Despite very small frequency of extremely high sea waves, these waves are especially dangerous for shipping and offshore construction.
The Vardø Vessel Traffic Service
The Vardø Vessel Traffic Service is NCA(NORWEGIAN COASTAL ADMINISTRATION)’s new maritime service for Norway. With a 24 hour monitoring of the sea traffic from the Swedish border in the south to the Russian border. In addition to Svalbard and Jan Mayen. Swedish aviation company Saab has invested in Vardø. Saab is planning to develop Vardø into the centre for ocean security in the Barents Sea area.

Svartnes Site The Svartnes site is an industrial area with a large storage capacity. The site is situated on the mainland approx. 3 km from the centre of Vardø and is the new fishing and industrial harbour for the municipality. Large sums of money have been invested in the development of this site.
194m Quay
Barents Base controls an area amounting to 7.5 acres. The total industrial area amounts to 37.5 acres. The entire area is easily accessible and suitable for outdoor storage. An additional area of around 1000 acres or more is presently available but as yet undeveloped.
Aarsæther Vardø AS - Stagnant
fishing factory
The quay measures 194 metres in length and has a marked approach which is 9 metres in depth. Water, electricity and a crane are available on the quay. Coast Centre Base AS (CCB) owns 50% of the Vardø Barents Base AS. The remaining 50% is owned equally by Bjørn Dæhlie and Vivian Lorentzen.
QUESTION 4 - 1. How to establish better connection for locals and visiting sailors? Disconnection 1. Oil and gas as most valuable nature resources in Barents sea for future Norway and Russia, more and more drilling happens, the Svartnes harbor became a potential oil and gas offshore supply base. Only 540km distance to Shtokman Field make Vardø became closest harbor compare with other harbors in both Norway and Russia. Vardø Barents base AS said Svartnes harbor is ideal geographic location for performing offshore activities. But if we change the view to see this city, we can find those plans are not good connections to locals there. Firstly, the education in Vardø is not include oil, gas and marine service knowledge. So, how can people work in those new industries? Secondly, the harbor are used as Transfer Service now, when crews came to harbor, they have to walk through the tunnel which is only for car but only geologically connection with Vardø island to get recreation service ( eating and drinkings) there. Svartnes harbor, as a potential economy part for Vardø, needs to establish better connection with island.

Globus II -In 1995, Norwegian and U.S. government agreed to move Radar to Vardø from Vandenberg Air Force Base, California. -Norwegian Government claims that the Globus II radar’s mission is track, catalogue and identify space debris. Globus II is under Norwegian control and is operated by Norwegians. But owned by U.S. -Russian think that radar could be integrated into the NMD(National Missile Defence) network to provide early warning of SLBM(Satellite Launched Ballistic Missile) launches from Russian ports or the Barents Sea. In 2000, a Russian general claimed that Vardø was becoming a nuclear target. Cooperation between Norway and Russia weakened by the fuss around Globus II radar in Vardø, says Ragnar Bratland, Norwegian defence attaché in Moscow. SOURCES:

QUESTION 4 - 2. How to establish better connection for locals and military area? Disconnection 2. The conflict of Radar(Globus II) caused relationship between Russia and Norway became sensitive. This huge “white ball” stand on the top of east hill, people can see it from far distance of city, it looks like land mark of Vardø and locates only 450 meters from residential area. The fence has been set at foot of the slope to avoid people get into Radar area. The attitude of locals to Globus II is really negative, people worried about this Radar will bring political trouble for their land. In such a small island, Radar, as an important political role of Norway, need to be established better connection with locals. Because people is most important support for city development, but not benefit of country. And for those people who lives there, city is more direct and tight connecting with them.

Too much activities and different identities around the city
QUESTION 5. How to make an island connected with itself and mainland harbor?
The city seems to be too small to handle all the different activities that goes on, and the identities that are built around them.
From historical point, almost all the Finnmark has been burned during the WW II by Germany. Vardø is one of two city that haven’t totally been burned (other one is vadsø). One third buildings survived and have been kept until now, it became the precious historical culture for city. Vardø was very important promo center for transporting goods between Russia and Norway in 1930s. Lots of fisherman, crews, businessman were going to and from the Vardø, it was prosperity land, the population was more than 4000 in 1970s which is highest point during history. The city had strong identity by fishing village in the old time, but fishing age has gone as time goes by, locals moved out, depopulation continued in last 8 decades, Half of people left their land, and rest of them became disappoint to their city. Vast of abandon fishing factories around harbor and empty houses in the city. Now, Vardø as most northeast in Norway, stands on a very important location on industry, transportation and politics. Firstly, Oil and gas as most valuable nature resources in Barents sea for future Norway and Russia, more and more drilling happens, the Svartnes harbor(in the mainland of Vardø) became a potential oil and gas offshore supply base. Secondly, Norwegian coastal administration set up new maritime service for Norway in Vardø which named Vardø Traffic Service. It has 24 hours monitoring of the sea traffic from the Swedish border in the south to the Russian border, in addition to Svalbard and Jan Mayen. Swedish aviation company Saab has invested in Vardø. Saab is planning to develop Vardø into the centre for ocean security in the Barents Sea area. Lastly, Globus II stand on an important position for country no matter for tracing space debris or Missile defence systerm. All of this plans which already happened or will happen explained that Vardø locates in a important site for Norway, but Vardø just a super small island which is only 1.27 km2 and isolate on the sea, how to set all of those strong and important activities in an resonalbe plan? The island is home for more than two thousands people living, this is most important and nature definition for island rather than any others. If we change the view to see this city, we can see some inherent problems happened in the city. The education in Vardø is not include oil, gas and marine service knowledge. So, how can people work in those new industries? And also the attitude of locals to Globus II is really negative, people worried about this Radar will bring political trouble for their land. How to deal with those gap in city? Now, it is important to make a landscpae strategy to try reconcile all the activities.
