White whales consume a wide variety of prey items ranging from benthic invertebrates and squid to pelagic fishes. 
Hvithval spiser en rekke ulike byttedyr, fra bentiske virvelløse dyr til blekksprut og pelagiske fiskearter.
Polar bears and killer whales are both predators of white whales. 
Spekkhoggere og isbjørn dreper hvithval.
Births can be spread from May to late August. 
Ungene blir født fra mai til slutten av august.
Calves are cared for by their mothers for over two years and remain in the maternal social group for years following weaning and continue to associate with their mothers. 
Kalvene er sammen med mora i to år og forblir i flokken til mora etter dette.
Mating occurs in late spring (April–May). 
Paring foregår om våren (april–mai).
White whale females reach sexual maturity at about five years of age, whereas males are somewhat older (eight years). 
Hvithvalhunnene er kjønnsmodne ved 10-årsalderen, mens hannene først er det ved 16-årsalderen.
The species lives to an age of approximately 40 years. 
Hvithvalene kan bli rundt 80 år gamle.
White whales are harvested for subsistence purposes throughout most of their range in the Arctic. 
Hvithval blir fangstet av urbefolkningen i hele sitt utbredelsesområde.
In some areas the numbers taken are significant because their coastal distribution in summer makes them readily available to shore-based fisheries. 
I noen områder taes det betydelige mengder fordi hvalene vandrer svært kystnært og dermed er lette å fange.
It is one of the most important species in traditional hunts in coastal Alaska, the eastern Canadian Arctic and Greenland. 
Hvithval er et av de viktigste byttedyrene for urbefolkningene i Alaska, kanadisk Arktis og Grønland.
The species have been subjected to commercial harvests by various nations at various times, and until very recently were commercially harvested by Russia in the White Sea. 
Arten har også blitt fangstet kommersielt av ulike nasjoner til ulike tider.
In Svalbard Russian whalers began harvesting this species early in the 17th century, mainly operating in the fjords on the West Coast of Spitsbergen. 
Fangsten foregikk hovedsakelig i fjordene på vestkysten av Spitsbergen.
Norway and other nations commenced hunting for white whales in this region in the late 1800s when the larger whales became scarce. 
Norge og andre nasjoner startet hvithvalfangst på slutten av 1800-tallet.
White whale harvesting continued through until the early 1960s. 
Denne fangsten pågikk til begynnelsen av 1960-årene.
Recovery seems to be taking place in Svalbard in the last decades; pods of whales numbering into the thousands are sighted irregularly around the Svalbard archipelago and pods ranging from a few individuals to a few hundred individuals are seen with regularity. 
Det synes som om det er en økning i bestanden av disse hvalene på Svalbard, og flokker på over 1000 dyr sees innimellom, mens flokker på mellom ti og hundre dyr er vanlig å observere.
White whales are protected in Svalbard. 
Hvithvalene på Svalbard er i dag fredet.

All activities in and visits to Antarctica must be done in accordance with the regulations set forth in the document on safety protection of the environment in Antarctica. 
All aktivitet og besøk i Antarktis må følgja føresegnene i forskrift om miljøvern og sikkerhet i Antarktis og gjennomførast i tråd med Antarktistraktaten (1959), den tilhøyrande protokollen om miljøvern (1991) og relevante vedtak.

Environment and climate 
Miljø og klima
So far, the Antarctic has been less affected by climate change than the Arctic, and the temperature in Antarctica is generally very low. 
Antarktis har til no ikkje blitt påverka av klimaendringane i like stor grad som Arktis, og temperaturen i Antarktis er generelt svært låg.
Several factors contribute to this, including low solar radiation in winter, the ability to reflect solar radiation, the cooling effect of long wave radiation from the continent to the continent's and height above sea level. 
Fleire faktorar medverker til dette, mellom anna den lave solinnstrålinga om vinteren, evnen isen har til å reflektere solstrålinga, kjøle-effekten av langbølgestråling frå kontinentet og høgda til kontinentet over havet.

Nordaustlandet, Barentsøya, Edgeøya, Kong Karls Land, Hopen, Prins Karls Forland, Bjørnøya and several other rocks and shears are part of the archipelago. 
I tillegg hører Nordaustlandet, Barentsøya, Edgeøya, Kong Karls Land, Hopen, Prins Karls Forland, Bjørnøya og en rekke andre holmer og skjær til Svalbard.
65 percent of the land mass is protected, and the archipelago has per 2010 29 protected areas. 
65 prosent av landarealet er vernet, og øygruppa har per 2010 29 naturvernområder.
The biggest island of the archipelago has had the name Spitsbergen since 1969, and was previously known as Vest-Spitsbergen. 
Siden 1969 har den største øya på Svalbard hatt navnet Spitsbergen, fra tidligere Vest-Spitsbergen.
The island has a size of 37.673 square kilometers, and most of the human activities on the archipelago have occurred on this island. 
Øya har en størrelse på 37 673 km2, og størstedelen av all menneskelig aktivitet på øygruppa har funnet sted der.
The permanent settlements of Longyearbyen, Barentsburg, Ny-Ålesund and Sveagruva are all found on the island. 
De faste bosetningene Longyearbyen, Barentsburg, Ny-Ålesund og Sveagruva er alle lokalisert på øya.
Spitsbergen also has six national parks, 13 bird preserves and one geotop protection area. 
I tillegg til disse bosetningene inneholder Spitsbergen seks nasjonalparker, tretten fuglereservater og ett geotopvernområde.

In addition to Spitsbergen, Nordaustlandet, Barentsøya, Edgeøya, Kong Karls Land, Hopen, Prins Karls Forland, Bjørnøya and all islands, rocks and shears between 74° and 81° degrees northern latitude and 10° and 35° degrees eastern longitude belong to the archipelago. 
I tillegg til Spitsbergen, hører Nordaustlandet, Barentsøya, Edgeøya, Kong Karls Land, Hopen, Prins Karls Forland, Bjørnøya og alle andre øyer, holmer og skjær mellom 74° og 81° nordlig bredde og 10° og 35° østlig lengde til øygruppa Svalbard.

There are 15 bird reserves in Svalbard, all of which were established in 1973. 
Det er 15 fuglereservater på Svalbard, disse ble alle opprettet i 1973.
Almost all of these are found on small islands or rocks along the western coast of Spitsbergen. 
Nesten alle ligger på holmer eller små øyer langs vestkysten av Spitsbergen.
The purpose of these reserves is to protect the most important breeding grounds for several specials. 
Formålet med fuglereservatene er å verne de viktigste hekkeplassene for ærfugl, hvitkinngås og ringgås.
These species seek areas that are not surrounded by ice and thus not available for the arctic fox. 
Disse artene søker hekkeplasser på holmer og skjær som ikke er omgitt av is om sommeren og som dermed ikke er tilgjengelig for for rev.
There are few of these spots in Svalbard, and the concentration of breeding birds can be quite large. 
Det er få slike steder på Svalbard, og derfor kan konsentrasjonen av hekkende fugler bli store.
People are not allowed to travel within the bird reserves from the 15 May to 15 August. 
Det er ferdselforbud i fuglereservatene fra 15. mai til 15. august.
All travel by land and water in these reserves are forbidden in this period. 
I denne perioden er all ferdsel til lands og til vanns i reservatene forbudt.
There is a 300 meter protection zone in the water surrounding these areas. 
Fuglereservatene omfatter også havet omkring øyene ut til 300 meter fra land eller skjær.
