  • Ruderals and Weeds in Godby, Åland Islands, SW Finland
    Memoranda Soc. Soc. Fauna Fauna Flora Flora Fennica Fennica 91, 91: 2015 21–32. • Hæggström 2015 & Hæggström 21 Ruderals and weeds in Godby, Åland Islands, SW Finland Carl-Adam Hæggström & Eeva Hæggström Carl-Adam Hæggström, Finnish Museum of Natural History, Botanical Museum, P. O. Box 7, FI- 00014 University of Helsinki, Finland. E-mail: [email protected] Eeva Hæggström, Tornfalksvägen 2/26, FI-02620 Esbo, Finland. E-mail: eeva.haeggstrom@ kolumbus.fi The Åland Islands in SW Finland are known for their luxuriant vegetation with numerous calci- philic vascular plants. Ruderal plants are rather few compared to the adjoining regions of Finland and Sweden. However, new ruderal plants are occasionally found in Åland. We came across a ruderal site in the centre of the village of Godby, municipality of Finström, in 2002. Most of the organic topsoil had been removed and several rare ruderal species grew then on the open ruderal site. The site became more closed, resembling a meadow rather than a ruderal ground already in 2006 and later the vegetation developed into a tall and rough grown meadow with some shrubs and young trees. The following ruderal plants are treated more in detail: Agrostemma githago, Anthemis tinctoria, Centaurea cyanus, Cichorium intybus, Dianthus deltoides (cultivar), Echium vulgare, Holcus lanatus, Leontodon hispidus, Lotus corniculatus var. sativus, Papaver dubium subsp. dubium, P. rhoeas, Phleum phleoides, Rumex thyrsiflorus, Senecio jacobaea, Thymus pule- gioides, Trifolium dubium and Vicia tenuifolia. Besides some trees and shrubs, 133 vascular plant taxa, most of them common in the Åland Islands, were observed growing in the ruderal site during the period 2002–2015.

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.
