INTRODUCTION When Finland and Sweden joined the European Union, they brought with them geographical and climatic features distinct from that of the other countries of the Union. These different conditions affect the development of transport services and networks. This study is concerned with "the Arctic Region", which consists of the following administrative areas: the provinces of Oulu and Lapland in Finland and the provinces of Norrbotten and Vasterbotten in Sweden. Low population density and a peripheral position to the highly developed centres are characteristics of the Arctic Region. The region is targeted for economic and social cohesion, particularly in terms of a common transport policy and the trans-European networks, in an attempt to integrate these regions into the Union by overcoming the obstacles and barriers isolating them. In addition to the issue of cohesion there are also prospects for economic development through the exploitation of the natural resources, namely the fish and mineral resources of the Barents Sea. This study assesses communications between the Arctic Region and the bordering regions of Norway and Russia, with particular reference to the Finnmark Province, the Republic of Karelia and the Murmansk Province. These regions form the study area to be examined. This study identifies the Community's transport needs in the Arctic Region, paying particular attention to the special geographical and climatic features of the area, and also the opinions of the indigenous community and environmental groups. It will provides information to Members of Parliament and other bodies Concerned with the transport and development needs of the area. It also provides recommendations for the EU on measures which would be likely to improve the transport system in the Arctic Region. The proposal to create a multi-modal corridor, the Barents Euro-Arctic Corridor, is a good example of a means of providing the vast northern area of these countries with an efficient transport system. This route has been promoted by the governments of Finland, Sweden, Russia and Norway. -5- PE 167.400 Transport in the arctic region 2. OVERVIEW OF THE STUDY AREA 2. l Geographical Location In this study, “the Arctic Region” refers to the following administrative areas: the provinces of Oulu and Lapland in Finland and the provinces of Norrbotten and Vasterbotten in Sweden. An assessment has been made of communications between the Arctic Region and the bordering regions of Norway and Russia, with particular reference to Finnmark, the Republic of Karelia and the Murmansk Oblast. The geographical locations of these regions, which form the study area, are given in Figure 1. - Figure 1. -6- PE 167.400 Transport in the arctic region The climate of the area is arctic or sub-arctic and because of the effect of the seas, the winters are moderate, whilst in spring and summer the "siverko", cold arctic air reduces the temperatures. The effect of the Gulf Stream is such that the northern coastal regions have considerably milder weather than the inland areas, where the temperatures may be as low as -45°C. Annual precipitation levels vary considerably, from 200 cm in coastal areas, to 40 cm in inland areas. The average snow cover also varies considerably, from 40-60 cm in tundra and northern taiga areas to 1-1.5 m in sub-arctic forests and 5-10 m in mountain valleys. /l/ The area is mountainous, especially in the north, where the highest mountain, Kebnekaise in Sweden, lies 2117 m above sea level. Most of the area is situated within the boreal zone and has extensive coniferous forests, however, the most northerly areas lie within the oroarctic zone, and have wide tundra areas (timber line). The thermal growing period varies from about 120 to 145 days. Global warming and changes in the ozone layer are expected to cause changes in vegetation in the future. This will effect the arctic area more than most, due to the slow vegetation growth and demanding growing conditions. /l/ The existing environmental conditions vary considerably between west and east. In Sweden, Norway and Finland there has been considerable investment in environmental technology in industry, which has led to reduced pollution levels. Increasing road traffic levels are becoming a cause for concern despite 'lead-free' fuels and "environmentally friendly" cars. The greatest environmental problem in Russia is its industry, which often uses old, outdated, highly polluting technology. Although road traffic levels in Russia are currently low, they are increasing all the time. This may become a serious problem in the future as the cars used tend to be old, made with outdated technology and use environmentally damaging fuels. -7- PE 167.400 Transport in the arctic

  • Annual Report
    Division of Quality & Environmental Management ANNUAL REPORT 2005-2007 1 Background and Overview In January 1, 2003 the Division of Quality & Environmental Management (Avdelningen för kvalitets- & miljöledning) was created through a merger between the Quality Technology group and the Environmental Management group. The establishment of the division, the very first one of this kind in Sweden, was supported both from industry and the public sector in Sweden. Large efforts were spent on a successful merger, partly with financial support from the Development Council Government Sector (Utvecklingsrådet för den statliga sektorn). For instance, efforts have been put on our values and the culture; see Figure 2. In February 2006 the Division of Quality & Environmental Management was merged with several other divisions into a unit named Division of Business Administration and Manage- ment (Avdelningen för företagsekonomi & verksamhetsutveckling). Figure 1 Parts of the staff of our division at Kukkolaforsen, June 16, 2006. Photo: Rickard Garvare. Our four main processes illustrate central activities at Quality & Environmental Management: Undergraduate and Graduate Education, Postgraduate Education, Research, and Links to Society; see Figure 3. Activities are often performed in a close co-operation with business companies, public organizations and other parts of our society and we are convinced that collaboration is of benefit for all parties. This is also emphasized in our vision, which states that “we shall be internationally acknowledged for, to
