Abstract
The main considerations that will govern the scope for Norwegian commitments related to international research operations on Jan Mayen Island are: 1) the physical characteristics of Jan Mayen Island, 2) its legal status in terms of international law as well as national legislation, 3) infrastructure and logistics, and 4) national policies concerning research or related activities. Any Norwegian support to proposed international research activities will require that the operation would be compatible with existing or prospective Norwegian national policies or strategies concerning research or related activities, which could entail the possibility of cooperation with key Norwegian research institutions.
