http://arts.eldoc.ub.rug.nl/ Repository Publications nl_NL With the publication of this special issue of Circumpolar Journal, the Arctic Centre of the University of Groningen would like to honour Piet Oosterveld as the driving force behind biological research on Edgeøya, Spitsbergen. He invested large amounts of time and energy in this research and he was an inspiration for many students. The book starts with an article about Piet Oosterveld’s Arctic activities written by Louwrens Hacquebord. After some fieldwork in Iceland Piet Oosterveld’s Arctic career really started with a wintering spent on Edgeøya in 1968-1969. In this book Piet Oosterveld’s companion Ko de Korte reports on this wintering. Some years later Piet Oosterveld was the instigator of the Reindeer Environment Expedition to Edgeøya in 1977. The most important product of this expedition, the ecological landscape map, was never published. In our opinion this ecological landscape map merits publication and fortunately Ies Zonneveld was willing to revise the article accompanying the map which is to be found at the back of the book. In this article the results of the ecological survey are presented.. The articles of Arend J. van Dijk and Hester D. Heinemeijer also deal with the ornithological and botanical results of the Reindeer Environment Expedition Svalbard. The articles of Pim van der Knaap & Jacqueline van Leeuwen and Leo M. Jalink & Marijke Nauta are dealing with other biological research on Edgeøya initiated by Piet Oosterveld. They are presented here as a tribute to Piet Oosterveld’s always stimulating energy and effort to make research in Spitsbergen possible. http://irs.ub.rug.nl/ppn/333271483 Thu, 01 Jan 2004 00:00:00 CET In the 1950s and 1960s the Defence Committee of the Western European Union (WEU) Assembly submitted a series of conspicuous reports on nuclear control issues, culminating in a plea for an Atlantic nuclear force. The article analyses the reports and discussions in the Assembly in the field of defence as well as its attempts to have their recommendations adopted by national parliaments. Internal political and national differences notwithstanding, the representatives in the WEU Assembly developed a clear understanding of European interests. http://irs.ub.rug.nl/ppn/333047648 Sat, 01 Jan 2011 00:00:00 CET Het Arctisch Centrum werd op 19 januari 1970 opgericht door zes hoogleraren uit de alfa- en gamma-faculteiten van de Rijksuniversiteit Groningen. De statuten van de Interfacultaire werkgroep Arctisch Centrum van die datum vermelden dat "De oprichting is geschied onder goedkeuring van de betrokken faculteiten en is bekrachtigd door het College van Rector en Assessoren der Universiteit". Daarmee was het Arctisch Centrum een feit. Op 19 januari 2005, 35 jaar na de oprichting, telt het Arctisch Centrum tien medewerkers die zich bezighouden met historisch, geografisch, cartografisch, archeologisch, biologisch en milieukundig onderzoek in beide poolgebieden. Bovendien vertegenwoordigen zij Nederland in diverse internationale organisaties op het gebied van het poolonderzoek. Het leek ons, als medewerkers van het Arctisch Centrum, een goed idee de oprichting van het centrum te gedenken door samen met oud-bestuursleden, oud-medewerkers, studenten en oud-studenten een bundel samen te stellen waarin wordt stilgestaan bij activiteiten, gebeurtenissen en ervaringen uit het verleden van het centrum. Uiteindelijk hebben zeventien mensen aan deze bundel bijgedragen. http://irs.ub.rug.nl/ppn/31473922X Sat, 01 Jan 2005 00:00:00 CET No description abstract http://irs.ub.rug.nl/ppn/277169933 Sat, 01 Jan 2005 00:00:00 CET No description abstract http://irs.ub.rug.nl/ppn/277168864 Thu, 01 Jan 2004 00:00:00 CET No description abstract http://irs.ub.rug.nl/ppn/277305489 Thu, 01 Jan 2004 00:00:00 CET No description abstract http://irs.ub.rug.nl/ppn/275378233 Thu, 01 Jan 2004 00:00:00 CET No description abstract http://irs.ub.rug.nl/ppn/275382265 Thu, 01 Jan 2004 00:00:00 CET No description abstract http://irs.ub.rug.nl/ppn/277302218 Wed, 01 Jan 2003 00:00:00 CET No description abstract http://irs.ub.rug.nl/ppn/275378446 Wed, 01 Jan 2003 00:00:00 CET No description abstract http://irs.ub.rug.nl/ppn/275377520 Wed, 01 Jan 2003 00:00:00 CET No description abstract http://irs.ub.rug.nl/ppn/277140919 Tue, 01 Jan 2002 00:00:00 CET No description abstract http://irs.ub.rug.nl/ppn/275376540 Tue, 01 Jan 2002 00:00:00 CET No description abstract http://irs.ub.rug.nl/ppn/277169429 Mon, 01 Jan 2001 00:00:00 CET No description abstract http://irs.ub.rug.nl/ppn/275381218 Mon, 01 Jan 2001 00:00:00 CET No description abstract http://arts.eldoc.ub.rug.nl/publications/general/other/2001/c.lutz_cereal/ Mon, 01 Jan 2001 00:00:00 CET No description abstract http://irs.ub.rug.nl/ppn/277297052 Sat, 01 Jan 2000 00:00:00 CET No description abstract http://irs.ub.rug.nl/ppn/801260280 Sat, 01 Jan 2000 00:00:00 CET No description abstract http://irs.ub.rug.nl/ppn/277296447 Sat, 01 Jan 2000 00:00:00 CET No description abstract http://irs.ub.rug.nl/ppn/275383067 Sat, 01 Jan 2005 00:00:00 CET No description abstract http://irs.ub.rug.nl/ppn/275378802 Fri, 01 Jan 1999 00:00:00 CET No description abstract http://irs.ub.rug.nl/ppn/287546713 Wed, 01 Jan 1992 00:00:00 CET No description abstract http://irs.ub.rug.nl/ppn/287956954 Tue, 01 Jan 1991 00:00:00 CET No description abstract http://irs.ub.rug.nl/ppn/287955052 Wed, 01 Jan 1986 00:00:00 CET We examine various string distance measures for suitability in modeling dialect distance, especially its perception. We find measures superior which do not normalize for word length, but which are are sensitive to order. We likewise find evidence for the superiority of measures which incorporate a sensitivity to phonological context, realized in the form of n-grams---although we cannot identify which form of context (bigram, trigram, etc.) is best. However, we find no clear benefit in using gradual as opposed to binary segmental difference when calculating sequence distances. http://irs.ub.rug.nl/ppn/29818270X Sun, 01 Jan 2006 00:00:00 CET In dit boek staat de mythe van Ganymedes centraal. De mythe van Ganymedes gaat over de liefde van de oppergod Zeus voor Ganymedes, een Trojaanse koningszoon, de mooiste van alle mensen. Zeus besloot Ganymedes te roven en mee te nemen naar de Olympus, het verblijf van de goden. De mythe gaat eveneens over het verlies en het verdwijnen van een geliefde zoon die betreurd wordt door zijn vader. Mythen bieden ‘verklaringen’ voor verschijnselen in de natuur, de genealogie van befaamde geslachten en bieden richtlijnen voor moreel gedrag. De mythe van Ganymedes verbindt belangrijke thema’s des levens: namelijk liefde en dood. In dit boek worden met behulp van bewaard gebleven teksten en beelden de betekenis en de interpretaties die aan de mythe van Zeus en Ganymedes gedurende een tijdspanne van meer dan 2000 jaar gegeven zijn, zichtbaar gemaakt. http://irs.ub.rug.nl/ppn/322174376 Thu, 01 Jan 2009 00:00:00 CET We examine various string distance measures for suitability in modeling dialect distance, especially its perception.

A total of 42 expedition members joined the field work at various times during the season. The expedition was based, for the second season, at our new headquarters at ‘Ain el-Gindi, Sheikh Wali. It was our good fortune to have the Governor of the New Valley, General Medhat Abdel-Rahaman, present at the opening ceremony on 22nd January. Field work included surveying by geoarchaeologists, paleontologists and Egyptologists; excavations at Mut el-Kharab, Ismant el-Kharab, Amheida and el-Qasr. Site conservation work was accomplished at a number of sites – the Mamissi plaster at the Temple of Tutu at Ismant el-Kharab, the Bayt el-Qadi (‘House of the Judge’) at el-Qasr, the Roman sandstone temple at ‘Ain Birbiyeh, and Roman period plaster decoration at Amheida. Special studies of Old Kingdom flint working, archaeobotany, papyrology, and physical anthropology also went forward. http://irs.ub.rug.nl/ppn/289010632 Thu, 01 Jan 2004 00:00:00 CET The Dakhleh Oasis Project (DOP) is a long-term regional study of the interaction between environmental changes and human activity in the closed area of the Dakhleh Oasis, Western Desert of Egypt, but including the larger area of the Palaeoasis. The study includes all the time since the first incursion of man in the Middle Pleistocene, perhaps 400,000 years ago, down to the 21st century oasis farmers, and all the human activity and all the changing environmental conditions for which there is evidence within the time period. http://irs.ub.rug.nl/ppn/288996135 Wed, 01 Jan 2003 00:00:00 CET The Dakhleh Oasis Project (DOP) is a long-term regional study of the interaction between environmental changes and human activity in the closed area of the Dakhleh Oasis, Western Desert of Egypt, but including the larger area of the Palaeoasis.
