Última Illusions of Resilience? An Analysis of Community Responses to Change in Northern Norway. Ecology and Society Amundsen, Helene; CICERO Centre for Climate and Environmental Research - Oslo; helene.amundsen@cicero.uio.no. This article contributes to our understanding of community resilience. Community resilience is the ability of a community to cope and adjust to stresses caused by social, political, and environmental change and to engage community resources to overcome adversity and take advantage of opportunities in response to change. Through an analysis of local responses to multiple challenges, six dimensions of community resilience were found in one village in northern Norway. These dimensions; community resources, community networks, institutions and services, people–place connections, active agents, and learning; are activated in processes and activities in the village to respond to current challenges. Although this corroborates findings from other... Tipo: Peer-Reviewed Reports Palavras-chave: Adaptation; Climate change; Community resilience; Adaptation; Local development; Northern Norway. Ano: 2012 Stochastic Optimization: An Application to Sub-Arctic Dairy Farming AgEcon Asheim, Leif Jarle; Richardson, James W.; Schumann, Keith D.; Feldman, Paul A.. The paper demonstrates how a deterministic farm linear programming (LP) model can be made stochastic and simulated using Solver and Simetar© in Excel©. The demonstration is conducted with an LP-model for a dairy farm for a sub arctic region of Norway. The income risks arising from variation in milk and crop yields due to winter damage in leys and pastures have been quantified for farms demonstrating low, medium and high forage yield risk. The estimated distribution of farm profit will be skewed to the left, indicating a downside risk. In the presence of risks, farmers maximize income by producing the milk quota with using surplus forage for meat production. The analysis demonstrated here may assist farmers and farm managers in improving sensitivity...
