Restitution of agricultural land in Estonia: Consequences for landscape development and production. Norsk Geografisk TidsskriftÁNorwegian Journal of Geography Vol. 64, 129Á141. ISSN 0029-1951. Two prominent features of present-day Estonia are large tracts of formerly productive land laid idle and production buildings of collective farms in ruins. However, in some areas most farmland remains actively used. An investigation of possible ‘landscapes of action’, both for national decision-makers and single landowners, can help with understanding recent transformations. The article examines local responses to the land restitution and agricultural restructuring measures adopted by the Estonian Government in the 1990s and the resulting effects on the cultural landscape and agricultural development. Restitution was politically necessary, but has had a number of unexpected effects on landscape development and agricultural production. Among the negative effects have been new speculative land-use patterns of urban sprawl around the larger cities. However, where large production units could be converted to capitalist enterprises and where agricultural land is good, agricultural production has been maintained. The article demonstrates how individuals and local communities interpret opportunities and obstacles set by personal ambitions, local conditions, and general policies. Case studies of the former collective farms in Sauga, Surju and Tori municipalities show that the proportion of unproductive agricultural land and recent development of ownership structures show marked differences from case to case.

The impressions restitution policies adopted by the Estonian Government are confirmed by Estonian statistics: since 1990 productive and the more recent effects of the European Union (EU) farmland, measured in sown crop area, has decreased by agricultural policies.

Eiter & Potthoff (2007) discuss the concept ‘driving forces’ in analysing changes in land use and vegetation cover in a historical perspective. Direct and indirect driving forces include social and owner- ship structures, values and attitudes, prices and subsidies, legislation, transport facilities, technical innovations, poten- tial productivity of an area, and geographical location in relation to markets. Such driving forces are clearly related to behavioural geography, as introduced by Wolpert (1964) in his comparison of actual and potential agricultural produc- tivity on farms in central Sweden. He found that the sample farm population did not achieve profit maximization, nor were its goals solely directed to that objective. The farmers Fig. 3.

  • A Study of Hydrodynamic and Coastal Geomorphic Processes in Küdema Bay, the Baltic Sea
    Coastal Engineering 187 A study of hydrodynamic and coastal geomorphic processes in Küdema Bay, the Baltic Sea Ü. Suursaar1, H. Tõnisson2, T. Kullas1, K. Orviku3, A. Kont2, R. Rivis2 & M. Otsmann1 1Estonian Marine Institute, University of Tartu, Estonia 2Instititute of Ecology, Tallinn Pedagogical University, Estonia 3Merin Ltd., Estonia Abstract The aim of the paper is to analyze relationships between hydrodynamic and geomorphic processes in a small bay in the West-Estonian Archipelago. The area consists of a Silurian limestone cliff exposed to storm activity, and a dependent accumulative distal spit consisting of gravel and pebble. Changes in shoreline position have been investigated on the basis of large-scale maps, aerial photographs, topographic surveys and field measurements using GPS. Waves and currents were investigated using a Recording Doppler Current Profiler RDCP-600 deployed into Küdema Bay in June 2004 and the rough hydrodynamic situation was simulated using hydrodynamic and wave models. The main hydrodynamic patterns were revealed and their dependences on different meteorological scenarios were analyzed. It was found that due to exposure to prevailing winds (and waves induced by the longest possible fetch for the location), the spit elongates with an average rate of 14 m/year. Major changes take place during storms. Vitalization of shore processes is anticipated due to ongoing changes in the regional wind climate above the Baltic Sea. Keywords: shoreline changes, currents, waves, sea level, hydrodynamic models. 1 Introduction Estonia has a relatively long and strongly indented shoreline (3794 km; Fig. 1), therefore the knowledge of coastal processes is of large importance for WIT Transactions on The Built Environment, Vol 78, © 2005 WIT Press www.witpress.com, ISSN 1743-3509 (on-line) 188 Coastal Engineering sustainable development and management of the coastal zone.

Also, several new localities for 54 very rare and rare species and two varieties have been found. Eight species are no longer considered to be rare in Estonia and two must be excluded from the list of Estonian bryophytes due to misidentifications. Kokkuvõte: L. Kannukene, N. Ingerpuu, K. Vellak ja M. Leis. Täiendusi ja parandusi Eesti sammalde nimestikule. Viimase kahe aasta (19941996) uurimistööde tulemusel on Eesti sammalde nimestikule (510 liiki) lisandunud 13 uut liiki (Harpanthus flotovianus, Jungermannia subulata, Aloina rigida, Bartramia ithyphylla, Bryum arcticum, B. calophyllum, B. klingraeffi, Dichelyma capillaceum, Pohlia sphagnicola, Physcomitrium eurystomum, Racomitrium elongatum, Rhytidium rugosum, Tetraplodon mnio ides) ja neli uut varieteeti (Lophozia ventricosa var. silvicola, Aulacomnium palustre var. imbricatum, Dicranella schreberiana var. robusta, Schistidium rivulare var. rivualre). Üks uutest liikidest (Dichelyma capillaceum) kuulub Euroopa punase raamatu ohustatud liikide kategooriasse. On leitud uusi leiukohti 54 liigile ja kahele varieteedile haruldaste ja väga haruldaste taksonite seast. Harulduste hulgast on mitmete uute leiukohtade tõttu välja arvatud kaheksa liiki ning nimestikust valemäärangute tõttu kaks liiki (Orthotrichum tenellum ja Ditrichum heteromallum). INTRODUCTION The list of Estonian bryophytes (Ingerpuu et Co., Nigula Nature Reserve, in the north- al., 1994) contains 510 species, two hornworts ern part of forest sq.
