 Mid-Scandinavian Symposium concerning nature management of the Trondheimsfjord   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
The first aim of this Symposium is to visualize the importance that the management of Trondheimsfjord has in a greater perspective, at least for migratory sea- and water-fowls populations for whole of Mid- and Northern part of Scandinavia and Spitsbergen.
The second aim of the Symposium is trying to raise the participants from municipalities, industry life and others dealing with the management of the fjord their consciousness of the unique importance the Trondheimsfjord has on breeding populations of sea- and water-fowls in the Mid- and Northern Scandinavian and Spitsbergen.
The outcome will, hopefully, be that the participants will have a larger knowledge level concerning the nature values in the Trondheimsfjord and thereby be more conscious when making decisions which influence the management of the fjord in the future.

 HyperWar: The Campaign in Norway [Chapter VI]
This fjord is the innermost reach of the long Trondheimsfjord; a position gained on its western bank at Follafoss would serve as a safeguard against a German overland advance along that bank from the shore opposite Trondheim.
The general policy was to build up forward as quickly as possible: by the evening of the 19th, Brigade Advanced Headquarters was in the northern outskirts of Steinkjer and detachments were posted at Röra and Stiklestad, up to seventeen miles farther south.
The snow did not seriously interfere with the advance, which was along the line of road and railway, the use of the rail route east to Grong and thence in a big loop south to Steinkjer being supplemented by the employment of twenty 30-cwt.Norwegian lorries, with others for local service.
