Valtion painatuskeskus 3 ABSTRACT Samples of Fucus vesiculosus were collected along the west and south coast of Finland at 25 stations in June-October 1987. More detailed surveys were conducted in the marine areas surrounding the nuclear power stations at Olkiluoto and Loviisa. The samples were analysed for gamma-emitting radionuclides and partly also for 90Sr and transuranic elements. From the twelve gamma-emitting radionuclides detected in the Fucus samples, 40 K, 106 Ru, 110" Ag, 134 Cs and 137 Cs were found in nearly all samples. 54Mn and 65Zn were almost regularly detected in the sam­ ples from the Olkiluoto and Loviisa areas and commonly also along -che whole coast, whereas 60Co was rarely found at the coastal stations outside the immediate vicinities of the power stations. The activity concentrations of l3 7 Cs varied in the Fucus samples from 80 to 670 Bq kg*1 dry weight. The highest values were found in the Loviisa area and in the eastern part of the Gulf of Finland and the \ lowest in the Archipelago Sea.

Since waterways often provide the only viable connection between islands, the planning of ferry routes and capacities relative to prevailing population patterns is critical. In this paper, we present a case study of Pargas, a rural archipelago region in Southwestern Finland, which in many ways provides a typical example of current depopulation trends in archipelago regions. Owing to high maintenance costs, changing population patterns and transportation needs, the ferry network of Pargas has recently attracted attention in terms of planning and a perceived need to reduce costs. Still, compared to in-land transportation, few academic studies have explored this issue. Using methods adapted from urban and land-based transport studies and diverse datasets, we aim at identifying spatial discrepancies between population patterns and transport options in the peripheral archipelago and at determining how well the ferry network meets the needs of the permanent and seasonal population of the islands. Our results show that although the existing ferry network in general functions relatively well in relation to the population, spatial mismatches between transport opportunities and population patterns in some of the prominent islands are nevertheless evident.

  • Travel Information
    Travel Information Travelling to Åland is easy. Please note that Åland belongs to the same time zone as Finland so remember to reset your clocks! Getting to Åland… …from Stockholm: Flights from Arlanda are operated by NextJet. Connection buses to Grisslehamn (Eckerö linjen) and Kapellskär (Viking Line) leave several times per day from Cityterminalen. If you go with Eckerö linjen, remember to have cash to pay the bus to Mariehamn with (4.80€, they also accept Swedish kronor), as the ferry arrives 35 kilometers from the city center in Berghamn. Ferries also depart directly from Stockholm Stadsgården, Tegelvikshamn (Viking Line) and Värtahamnen (TallinkSilja), these routes do however take longer than the other options. …from Helsinki: Flights from Helsinki-Vantaa Airport are operated by Flybe. Ferries from Helsinki to Åland (TallinkSilja and Viking Line) depart in the evening but arrive very early in the morning and are therefore not recommended. …from Turku: Flights from Turku airport are operated by NextJet. Ferries depart four times per day either in the morning or evening and arrive either in the afternoon in Mariehamn or in the night in Långnäs. If you decide to go to Långnäs, make sure you either have your busticket paid in advance or that you have cash for it (12€). TallinkSilja buses must be booked in advance. …from Tallinn: TallinkSilja departs from Tallinn in the evening and arrives in Mariehamn early in the morning. If you fly in, either take a cab or a thirty minute walk to reach the city center! Getting out: It's actually easier to depart than to arrive: Flights from Mariehamns airport depart for Turku, Helsinki and Stockholm all workdays.

  • Finland Land of Islands and Waters
    The Island Committee Finland Land of Islands and Waters There can be no more beloved shore than this, “ our Northern homeland.” JJohanohan LLudvigudvig RRuneberguneberg ARTO HÄMÄLÄINEN/KUVALIITERI • FRONT COVER PHOTO: AARNI NUMMILA/KUVALIITERI ARTO HÄMÄLÄINEN/KUVALIITERI LAND OF ISLANDS AND WATERS 3 Dear Reader Finland has more bodies of water than any other country in the world, and more islands than most European nations. We boast 76,000 islands with an area of 0.5 ha or more, 56,000 lakes over 1 ha, 647 riv- ers and 314,000 km of coastline. Every Finnish municipality has waters, and most contain islands. Every island, lake and river has its place in the hearts of Finns. This brochure describes these unique riches. Its multitude of islands and waters makes the Finnish landscape fragmented, creating extra costs for the economy, the State and local councils, but it is also an incomparable resource. Our islands, seas, lakes, rivers and shores are excellent regional assets in a world that thrives increasingly on producing unique experiences. JOUNI KLINGA Holiday homes (belonging to around 2 million people), boating (700,000 boats), fi shing (1.8 million recreational fi shers), nature pur- suits and tourism ensure that the development of our islands and waters touches upon the entire nation. Finland is one of Europe’s top boating and recreational fi shing sites. Many public authorities operate in the islands and waterways, including the Defence Forces, the Border Guard, the Police Force, regional rescue departments, the Maritime Administration (commuter traffi c, piloting, shipping lanes, ports, charting, winter navigation assistance), the Road Administration (ferries and roads), the environ- mental authorities, the Game and Fisheries Research Institute, other fi sheries authorities and the National Board of Antiquities.

Contrary to other national parks in Finland, the aims of the Archipelago National Park are not only to preserve the area’s nature but also its cultural values and to safeguard the traditional utilisation of the nature and maintain an inhabited archipelago. Traditional livelihoods have a less significant economic impact nowadays but on the other hand service and tourism companies are being established. All of these livelihoods support each other and add to the region’s attractiveness. The strategy for nature tourism presented here is of the utmost importance to preserve the archipelago environment with its significant natural value and biodiversity as well as to maintain the area’s cultural values, while enabling tourists to visit the area on a sustainable basis.

    photo: pekka salmi photo: photo: jouko högmander jouko photo: photo: mikael syrjälä photo: Villages in the Outer Turku Archipelago – Nature and Culture This brochure is an introduction to the villages in the outer islands of the Archipelago National Park. The intention is to offer readers a comprehensive picture of the outer archipelago islands by introducing their history, culture, nature and services. The brochure also gives details of the associations and groups that are working to enhance the vitality and the natural environment of the archipelago and to promote environmental education in the islands. History of human settlement in the Archipelago 2 Archaeological fi ndings indicate that as far back as in prehistoric times (approximately from 8000 BC to 1150 AD), people started to make use of the natural resources that the archipelago provided just as soon as suitable islands emerged from the sea as a result of land uplift. Coastal and archipelago areas were popular with prehistoric peop- les thanks to the ready availability of fi sh, seals and birds. This, in turn, made extensive hunting trips much less necessary, which led to the establishment of a greater number of permanent dwellings. Our coastal and archi- pelago areas were certainly inhabited at least 4,000 years ago by populations who grew crops and probably also 1920s tended cattle. The establishment of sea routes facilitated the exchange of goods over a wider area. At the time of the Vikings (from approximately 800 to 1050 AD), the archipelago was probably a restless place photo: anonymous, anonymous, photo: to live; the Vikings would pass through the archipelago on their way to the East.
