Bolstadfjorden is a Шаблон:Cvt long fjord in Vaksdal and Voss municipalities in Vestland county, Norway. The Bolstadfjorden is a branch of Veafjorden and a continuation of Vikafjorden. Vikafjorden meets Bolstadstraumen at Straume and the mouth of Bolstadfjorden. It is the innermost point of the fjord system surrounding the city of Bergen.[1]
Bolstadfjorden is Шаблон:Cvt deep with a threshold of only Шаблон:Convert which creates a strong tidal current. Bolstadfjorden has a surface area of Шаблон:Cvt. There is a threshold at Шаблон:Convert creating two basins, the outer Шаблон:Cvt. The Vosso river flows into Bolstadfjorden and brings freshwater from a Шаблон:Cvt catchment area. Freshwater inflow peaks in May to June. Freshwater or brackish water on the surface obstructs circulation of the heavier saltwater leaving the saltwater in the deeper part deprived of oxygen. Measurements in April and August 2006 showed indicated that there was no oxygen at Шаблон:Convert or deeper. In April the layer of brackish water was about Шаблон:Convert deep, while in August the brackish water was Шаблон:Convert deep.[2][3][4]
The main road from Bergen-Voss-Oslo (European route E16) runs along the south shores of the fjord. The Voss Line originally ran along the south shore, partly through 10 short tunnels. When the Bergen Line in 1987 was shifted deeper into the bedrock (through the Шаблон:Convert long Trollkona tunnel), the E16 highway partly took over abandoned tunnels and rail tracks along Bolstadfjorden.[5]
