This ‘promising begin - ning’ led to a distinguished career as a composer, during which Järnefelt pro - duced numerous orchestral works, music for the stage, solo and choral songs and more than ten cantatas. Nonetheless he is remembered primar ily as a con - ductor, in which capacity he was highly regarded and directed the Royal Opera in Stockholm for many years.

It changes its appearance and is reduced to elements like light, wind, water or sky. Light, wind, water or sky become the symbol of nature.

Previous records of the species in the Baltic Sea were from Sweden, Denmark, Germany and Poland. Telmatogeton japonicus is an alien species introduced to Europe from the Pacific Ocean. It probably uses shipping as the vector, since in north-western Europe it has first been detected near large seaports. This was also the case in the Gulf of Finland. Our findings suggests that the species’ distribution extends further northeast in the Baltic Sea than understood before, and that the species is able to establish viable populations into fresh-brackish (salinity < 4 ‰) coastal habitats.

Studies on the topic have been conducted by the govern- mental and local institutions, but most of the information is growing old and obsolete. Therefore, a more modern study on the topic is required. The objective of the present study was to assess the feasibility of the railway connection with as up-to-date information as possible. The aim was to determine the basis and groundwork for a further study on the topic as well as discuss the requirements and appli- cations required in the design and development of a possible future railway connection. The study relied on more recent and industry-based information on the implementation of such a project. This included a thorough search and analysis of publications and other sources in Finnish and European as well as selectively other governmental databases in or- der to compare and assess what was relevant and noteworthy for the study. While search- ing for the information, also the possible future applications had to be taken into consider- ation.
