In the years between the two World Wars the concept became more political in nature: after Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania obtained their independence in 1918 the region gradually became understood as the geographical entity made up of these three republics. Although the Baltic region is geographically fairly homogeneous, each of the newly restored republics possesses unique geographical and strategic features.

Puura Received January 21, 1994; accepted March 25, 1994 Abstract. The established conodont zones in the Cambrian-Ordovician boundary beds in northern Estonia serve as a basis for the interpretation of the succession of changes in the facies cohditions of sedimentation. The facies maps compiled by time interval!? correspond to the Westergaardodina, Cordylodus andresi, C. proavus, C. lindstromi, and C. rotundatus-C. angulatus conodont zones. Phosphorite accumulation was the most intensive during the C. proavus time. The rugged topography of the underlying Lower Cambrian Tiskre and Vaki formations on the territory of the Rakvere phosphorite region was of great significance in the phosphorite accumulation. At the initial stages of phosphorite accumulation three bottom swells (islands) existed there. The most intensive piling up of phosphorite was related to these swells. They coincide in direction with the present Aseri and Ahtme disturbance zones. · l(ey words: Cambrian-Ordovician boundary beds, shelly phosphorite, Estonia. The Rakvere phosphorite region (RPR) is situated in northeastern Estonia; it comprises the Toolse and Aseri deposits in its northern part · and the Rakvere deposit in its southern part. The latter is subdivided into large areas, the most important among them being the Assamalla, Raga­ vere, and Kabala areas (Fig.

  • Estonia Recce 24 June – 1 July 2015
    Estonia recce 24 June – 1 July 2015 These are our diary, wildlife lists and other notes from a recce visit to Estonia, courtesy of NaTourEst www.natourest.ee, who organise wildlife and activity holidays in Estonia. Participants were Chris Durdin and Ivan Nethercoat from Honeyguide, and our main guide was Rein Kuresoo. While we were in Estonia we also met Triin, Bert and Alf from NaTourEst. Our recce took us from Tallinn to the large, western island of Saaremaa, then back on the mainland to parts of western Estonia in and around Matsalu National Park, and then east of Tallinn to Lahemaa National Park. The daily diary is in sections to separate these areas. We concluded that for a Honeyguide holiday we would come earlier in June (that was no surprise – the recce dates were much influenced by other commitments). We also think that to reduce travelling time and for the best mix of birds, flowers and mammals that we should combine western Estonia with Lahemaa National Park. Therefore, the first section of this recce report, covering Saaremaa, is less relevant to the holiday planned for June 2016. It’s included partly for completeness but also as Saaremaa has great charm, is botanically rich and could even be a base for a slightly different holiday, such as ‘orchids of Estonia’. Photos in this report were all taken on the recce by Ivan and Chris and there are many more on Flickr and Facebook. Above: erractic boulders on the coast at Käsmu, Lahemaa National Park. Report diary and plant list by Chris, bird notes by Ivan.
