The concentrations of radioactive cesium and other gamma-emitting nuclides were determined on meat of moose8 and other cervids and also on small game in various parts of the country before or in the beginning of the hunting season. The most important radionuclides found in the samples were 134Cs and 137Cs. In addition to these, 131I was detected in the first moose meat samples in the spring, and 110"Ag in a part of the waterfowl samples. None of them was significant as far as the dietary intake of radionuclides is concerned. The transfer of fallout radiocesium to game meat was most efficient in the case of the arctic hare and inland waterfowl; terrestrial game birds and the brown hare belonged to the same category as moose.

  • Søren Larsen © James D Parbery 2020-2021 This Edition 22 March 2021
    TIMELINE Søren Larsen © James D Parbery 2020-2021 this edition 22 March 2021 The Danes have been building wooden ships since long before the Viking Era (c.790-1100 AD) and passing on skills from father to son while refining the method and ship design through the centuries. The principal building material, oak, was seriously depleted in most European countries by the late 19th century except in Denmark where oak forests were well managed at the initiative of King Frederich VI 1768 – 1839. Consequently wooden ship building in Denmark continued well into the 20th century. Søren Larsen, launched in 1948, was one of the last of these ships built in the 20th century for commercial cargo - a Baltic trader or sejlede paket (sailing packet) as the Danes called it. The builders, Søren Larsen og Sønners, named the ship after themselves as she was exceptionally well built and the last of a kind - a ship they could name with pride. Søren Larsen now has a rich history spanning almost seventy-five years and has sailed every ocean. She is in excellent condition, still sailing, currently based in Sydney, Australia. If readers have more information, articles, photographs etc to offer please contact James Parbery; [email protected] . 1 of 23 TIMELINE Søren Larsen © James D Parbery 2020-2021 this edition 22 March 2021 THE DANISH YEARS - CARGO SHIP 1948 - 1976 1945 May 5 End of Second World War; Denmark is liberated from German occupation. Mines had been laid throughout the Danish sea lanes during the war and these remain a hazard to shipping, with a significant loss of life until at least 1950 when all mines were finally cleared.

Vesistöjen kunnostustarpeita on Oulussa huomatta- vasti enemmän kuin hankkeita pystytään rahoittamaan. Ouluun päätettiin laatia vesistöjen kun- nostusohjelma, jossa määritellään hankkeiden tärkeysjärjestys. Opinnäytetyössä kehitettiin Oulun kaupungin olosuhteisiin sopiva vesistökunnostushankkeiden priorisointimalli. Opinnäytetyön tavoitteena oli selvittää, voidaanko vesistökunnostusten arvioinnissa vertailla järviä ja virtavesiä yhteismitallisesti. Tärkeänä ominaisuutena pidettiin myös sitä, että arviointiin voisi myöhemmin lisätä uusia vesistöjä. Rahoitus työhön tuli Oulun kaupungilta ja Pohjois-Pohjanmaan elinkeino-, liikenne- ja ympäristökeskukselta. Aiempien tutkimusten perusteella tässä työssä kehittämismenetelmäksi valittiin monitavoitteiseen

  • OULUJOEN HISTORIAA Vaala – Nuojua Ulkoilureitti
    OULUJOEN HISTORIAA Vaala – Nuojua ulkoilureitti LUMMAN LENKKI Reittiesite Oulujoki Oulujoki muodostaa alimman osan Oulujoen vesistöstä. Vesistö jakautuu kahtia Oulujärven kohdalla, joka on Suomen neljänneksi suurin järvi. Oulujär- veen vesiä tuovat Hyrynsalmen ja Sotkamon reittivedet sekä muutama vähäi- sempi joki. Oulujärvestä vedet purkautuvat Vaalankurkun kautta Oulujokeen, joka laskee lopulta Oulun kaupungin halki Perämereen. Pituutta joella on 106 km ja kor- keuseroa 122 metriä. Oulujokeen laskee neljä isompaa sivujokea, jotka ovat ylhäältä lukien: Kutu-, Utos-, Muhos- ja Sanginjoki. Luonnontilainen Oulujoki oli kuuluisa koskistaan. Kuuluisin koskista oli Pyhä- koski, joka oli 17 kilometriä pitkä ja putouskorkeutta sillä oli 56 metriä. Pyhä- koski on ollut Suomen korkein ja pisin koski. Oulujoen ylin koskijakso Vaalas- sa, Niskakoski, puolestaan putosi 31 metriä yhdeksän kilometrin matkalla ja- kautuen seitsemään erilliskoskeen: Kauko, Jylhämä (kuvassa), Siitari, Oter- ma, Pyterä, Kovera ja Nuojua. Koskenlasku Oulujoen hurjien koskien pärskeissä oli monella turistilla matkan kohokohta. Nyt Oulujoen mahtavat kosket on kesytetty vesivoimalaitosten avulla. 1 Kalaisa Oulujoki houkutteli asutusta jo kivikauden aikana. Myöhemminkin se on tarjonnut leipää alueen ihmisille monella eri tavalla. Tärkeitä elinkeinoja ovat olleet esimerkiksi kalastus, uitto ja tervasoutu. Myös tervanpolttoa ja rau- taruukkitoimintaa on koskivoimalla harjoitettu. Lohi on houkutellut urheiluka- lastajia Oulujoen koskille jo 1800-luvulla, joten matkailuelinkeinonkin juuret ovat täällä syvällä. Oulujoen koskien rakentamisen myötä moni asia on muut- tunut. Asutus Oulujoella Asutus alkoi n. 8800-8000 vuotta sitten niillä alueilla, jotka siihen mennessä olivat ehtineet kohota jääkauden jälkeen merestä. Oulujokivarren kivikautisis- ta löydöistä suurin osa on tehty Vaalan kunnan alueella: asuinpaikkoja on löydetty noin 50 ja kiviesineitä lähes 500. Kivikaudella asuinpaikka valittiin veden luota, mutta ei mielellään aavan ulapan ääreltä.

I häftet "Allmän skeppshistoria" berördes den förhistoriska skeppsbyggnadskonsten i Norden i ett större europeiskt sammanhang. I detta studiehäfte berättas om den långa skeppsbyggnadstradition som finns i Norden från vikingatiden till nutid. Politik och handelsintressen har spelat en stor roll för utvecklingen av de olika skeppstyperna, allt från vikingaskeppens smäckra konstruktioner till de lastdryga koggarna och de tunga krigsskeppen fram till segelfartygens kamp mot ångfartygen. 3 Skeppet i nordisk historia Vikingar i västerled frisiska öarna i utkanten av sitt imperium försökte han därför anordna ett kustförsvar vilket verkar ha haft en viss effekt.

  • Paltamo Full Employment Experiment: an Application of The
    Paltamo Full Employment Experiment: An Application of the Synthetic Control Method Kosti Takala∗ February 26, 2015 Abstract In this paper I study the effects of the Paltamo Full Employment Experiment, an activation measure for the unemployed which combines their prior unemployment benefits and a bonus into a salary. Thus, the unemployed have to work for their benefits unless they are willing to go on social assistance. To estimate the effects on unemployment and on the related benefits and allowances, I employ the synthetic control method to construct counterfactuals for Paltamo, a Finnish municipality in which the experiment was run from 2009 to 2013. I find that there was a real and statistically significant drop in unemployment and related benefits that lasted throughout the experiment. However, the experiment ended up costing more to the government than what could be retrieved through savings in benefit payments. Keywords: Labor market experiment, Unemployment, Synthetic control method ∗Department of Economics, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, [email protected] 1 1 INTRODUCTION 2 1 Introduction The ever aging Finnish population means more dependents (children and pensioners, but mostly pensioners) and, therefore, more allowances, benefits and pensions to cover by the efforts of a stagnating labor force. Add to the equation a high unemployment, especially in the long term, and its related (generous) benefits and health problems, and you get a government deficit tantamount to a house of cards waiting to collapse, unless something can be done to the different costs stemming from unemployment. To tackle the above problem, many countries have implemented measures such as active labor market policies, the scale and evaluation of which has been inadequate.
