| 13. | Teadustöö põhisuunad | Fenoloogia, aastaajad ja kliimamuutused Välja on töötatud aastaajaliste nähtuste analüüsimise metoodika. Analüüsitud on aastaajaliste nähtuste ajalis-ruumilist varieeruvust Eestis ja Euroopas ning kliimamuutuste mõju neile. Eesti kevadpoolaasta ilmastik ning fenoloogia on viimasel sajandil oluliselt muutunud, see mõjutab ka ühiskonda. Ühiskondlike nähtuste sesoonsus ja kliimamuutustega kohanemine Aastaajaliste nähtuste analüüsimise metoodika on kohaldatud inimeste käitumise ja ühiksondlike nähtuste uurimiseks. Analüüsitud on sünnikuupäevade ja alkoholi tarbimise sesoonsust ja võimalikke mõjureid. Eestlaste sünnikuupäevadel on selge aastaajaline rütm, mis on viimase sajandi jooksul seoses urbaniseerumisega muutunud. Sündide (viljastumiste) sesoonsuse otsesed põhjused on endiselt avastamata. Aastaajad mõjutavad oluliselt ka inimeste käitumist, seda aspekti on ühiskondliku elu planeerimisel ja juhtimisel vähe arvestatud. Metsandus ja ressursikasutuse reguleerimine Kirjeldatud on metsade sotsiaal-majanduslikku ja kultuurilist tähendust ühiskonnale. Analüüsitud on metspoliitika mõju metsade ja liikide seisundile ning säästva metsamajanduse planeerimise aspekte. Üleminekuaastate liberaalne metsapoliitika on seadnud ohtu paljude liikide säilimise ja stabiilse tööhõive. Liiga liberaalne ressursikasutuse poliitika on muutnud metsanduse läbipaistmatuks, mis on omakorda sünnitanud varimetsanduse. Hinnanguliselt toodetakse üle poole Eesti puidust seadusi, keskkonda või ühiskonna huve kahjustades. Metsanduse sertifitseerimine on üks võimalus probleemide reguleerimiseks, kui riik ei suuda probleeme lahendada. 40% Eesti metsadest on sertifitseeritud FSC skeemist lähtuvalt. Sotsiaal-majanduslike muutuste hindamine keskkonna planeerimisel Eesti planeeringutes on rakendatud keskkonnaplaneerimise ja mõjude hindamise metoodikat. Koostatud on metoodika inimeste ajalis-ruumilise käitumise uurimiseks mobiilpositsioneerimise abil. Täna on see alternatiivne meetod liikumise uurimisel ja küsitlemisel, tulevikus võib sellest kujuneda võimas ühiskonna planeerimise ja juhtimise instrument. Meetodi oluline probleem on turvalisus ja privaatsus, loomulikult saab inimesi positsioneerida vaid nende nõusolekul. Analüüsitud on asutuse ja inimeste liikumismustrite muutumist Eestis. Osaletud on planeeringute koostamisel Jõgeva maakonnas, Tartus, Narvas ja Tallinnas. |

| 13. | Current research program | Phenology, seasonality and climate change Working group leader, data analysis, writing and presentations. Working group developed methodology for analysing phenological time series and phenological calendars. Applying those methods, the space-time variability of phenological time series has been studied in Estonia and Europe. The impacts of climate change on phenological phases and seasonal indicators have been studied. There have been remarkable shifts in the timing of seasonal events during the spring half of year. Seasonality of human activities and adaptation with change impacts The methodology of analysing seasonal and phenological events was applied to the study of human and social behaviour. The seasonality of Estonian birthdays, alcohol consumption and different socio-economic indicators was analysed. Birth dates and alcohol consumption show a clear seasonal variation. The seasonal rhythm of births has been changing during the 20th century, which is shown to be linked with urbanisation and industrialisation in Estonia. Previously, there had been no commonly accepted explanations for the causes of seasonality in birth curves. Alcohol consumption also shows a clear seasonal pattern, but this indicator is more related to social phenomena such as holidays and vacations. Beer consumption reaches a peak during the summer period because the number of people drinking beer increases during summer holidays and vacations. Seasonality has a great impact on human activities in temperate zones but until today this information has not been much used in planning and public administration. Natural resource use policy and forestry The socio-economic and cultural aspects of forests and forestry products are studied. This comprises an analysis of Estonian forest policy and legislation and its ecological and social impacts at both local and national level. The Estonian forest policy was formulated too liberally in 1996 and this resulted in unlimited and uncontrolled felling. Since 1999 Estonia has been harvesting more timber (more than 12 mil. solid meters) than there is annual growth (10 mil. solid meters). This is endangering ecosystems and species and social security in rural areas. The liberal forest policy and legislation made forest use non-transparent and timber untraceable. This has created a huge sector of illegal forestry which benefits from tax deceptions, overharvesting, environmental damage and forest theft. Today, more than 50% of the timber produced in Estonia is associated with schemes of shadow forestry. One alternative to weak state policy is voluntary initiatives such as FSC certification. 40% of Estonian forests are certified by internationally trusted FSC. Environmental planning and social impact assessment The existing environmental planning and impact assessment methodology has been developed according to Estonian legislation and practices. In this study, various cities and regions have been analysed in order to compose better planning options. As a result of this a new methodology for social impact assessement has been developed, since this topic is weakest in Estonia. The social positioning method (SPM) studies social flows in time and space by analysing the location coordinates of mobile phones and the social identifiers of the people carrying them. Taking into account the large proliferation of mobile phones in the world, this would be a database of very high potential. SPM data has three important aspects: 1) in comparison to earlier studies on space-time movement, both the quantity and the precision of this data is considerably higher; 2) social positioning data indicates the actual location and movement of people; 3) the method enables working in real-time. The important issue of social positioning is protection of privacy and personal data. As in any poll or survey it is allowed to question, monitor and research only those people who specifically consent to it. The first 2 SPM pilot studies have been made for Tallinn master plan. |
