Euroopan unionin direktiiveissä ja kansallisessa lainsäädännössä on asetettu tavoitteita, velvoitteita ja raja-arvoja ilmanlaadun mittauksille. Ilmanlaatua on seurattava, ilmanlaatumittaukset on tehtävä laadukkaasti sekä luotettavasti ja mittaustuloksista on tiedotettava väestölle. Mittausten epävarmuus on tunnettava ja sen on oltava alle 15 %, jotta epävarmuudelle asetettu kriteeri täyttyy. Tässä työssä perehdyttiin Euroopan unionin ilmastopolitiikkaan ja kansalliseen ilmanlaatua koskevaan lainsäädäntöön, käytiin läpi menetelmiä ja tapoja, joilla ilmanlaadusta tiedotetaan väestölle sekä selvitettiin ilmanlaadun mittausjärjestelmiä koskevia vaatimuksia. Ennen varsinaista mittausepävarmuuden selvittämistä käytiin läpi tutkimuksen kohteena olevan typen oksidien analysaattorin mittausperiaate ja merkittävimmät komponentit. Mittausepävarmuus määritettiin standardia SFS-EN 14211 noudattamalla. Mittausepävarmuuden selvittämiseksi analysaattorille tehtiin erilaisia sen toimintaa kuvaavia testejä Ilmatieteen laitoksen kalibrointilaboratoriossa. Saatujen tuloksien perusteella voitiin laskea analysaattorin mittausepävarmuus, joka tuntiraja-arvopitoisuudessa oli 15,5 % ja vuosiraja-arvopitoisuudessa 10,5 %. Kaikkia testejä ei voitu tehdä standardissa määrätyllä tavalla, joten tuloksiin pitää suhtautua kriittisesti. Tulosten perusteella mittausepävarmuus tuntiraja-arvopitoisuudessa ei aivan täytä direktiivin kriteeriä, mutta vuosiraja-arvopitoisuudessa kriteeri täyttyy (< 15 %).

This study investigates the over and underreaction effects in nine emerging stock markets of Europe. Especially, the possible behavioral aspects behind them are an area of interest. These aspects would link them strongly to behavioral finance. Second, our aim is to provide more evidence of the similar or dissimilar behavior in general among these countries. Third, the possibility to gain abnormal returns from these markets is also under investigation. Data from nine emerging stock market indexes in Europe is gathered from January 1, 1998 to January 1, 2008 to find answers to the stated questions. Studies for the over and underreaction effects are done using a variant of the event study methodology which in this case includes two different calculation methods for the expected returns. Studies are performed using 60 day time intervals. The results between the two different methods used are relatively similar concerning the over and underreaction effects. Another of the methods, however, suggests there to be behavioral aspects behind the effects interpreted. On the other hand, the another method does not support this suggestion. However, a conclusion can be made that the factors driving these countries' behavior are related to their geographical location and to the fact that they are emerging countries.

Zacharias Topeliuksen (1818-1898) Finland framstäldt i teckningar oli ensimmäinen kokonaisesitys Suomen maisemista lounaissaaristosta tunturimaisemaan. Sen esikuvana olivat muissa Euroopan maissa julkaistut vastaavat teokset, jotka lisäsivät lukijoiden tietoisuutta oman maan kauneudesta ja historiallisesta merkityksestä. Myös Topeliuksen teoksella oli suuri merkitys suomalaisten isänmaakäsityksen kehittymiseen. Teokseen liittyy 120 historiallisesti, maantieteellisesti tai muuten merkittävää paikkaa tai rakennusta esittävää kivipiirrosta, joiden tekijöinä olivat tunnetut taiteilijat, kuten Lennart Forstén, Magnus von Wright, P. A. Kruskopff ja Johan Knutson. Kirjan laaja teksti on Topeliuksen seikkaperäinen kuvaus maisemakohteista, maan ja kansan historiasta.

Energy efficiency and saving energy are the main question marks when thinking of reducing carbon dioxide emissions or cutting costs. The objective of thesis is to evaluate policy instruments concerning end-use energy efficiency of heavy industry in European Union. These policy instruments may be divided in various ways, but in this thesis the division is to administrative, financial, informative and voluntary instruments. Administrative instruments introduced in this thesis are Directive on Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control, Directive on Energy End-use Efficiency and Energy Services, and Climate and Energy Package. Financial means include energy and emission taxation, EU Emission Trading Scheme and diverse support systems. Informative instruments consist of horizontal BAT Reference Document for Energy Efficiency, as well as substantial EU documents including Green Paper on Energy Efficiency, Action Plan for Energy Efficiency and An Energy Policy for Europe. And finally, voluntary instruments include environmental managements systems like ISO 14001 and EMAS, energy auditing and benchmarking. The efficiency of different policy instruments vary quite a lot. Informative instruments lack the commitment from industry and are thus almost ineffective, contrary to EU Emission Trading Scheme, which is said to be the solution to climate problems. The efficiency of administrative means can be placed between those mentioned and voluntary instruments are still quite fresh to be examined fruitfully. However, each instrument has their potential and challenges. Cases from corporate world strengthen the results from theoretical part. Cases were written mainly on the basis of interviews. The interviewees praised the energy efficiency contract of Finnish industry, but the EU ETS takes the leading role of policy instruments. However, for industry the reductions do not come easily.

Direktiivi 2005/32/EY energiaa käyttävien tuotteiden ekologiselle suunnittelulle asetettavien vaatimusten puitteista annettiin 6.7.2005. Direktiivin puitteissa Euroopan komissio tulee antamaan tuoteryhmäkohtaisia asetuksia, joissa määritellään tuoteryhmäkohtaisesti ympäristövaatimukset. Direktiivin tarkoituksena on integroida ymparistönakokohdat ja elinkaariajattelu tuotesuunnitteluvaiheessa. Tällä direktiivillä pyritään parantamaan ympäristösuojelun tasoa ja tuotteiden energiatehokkuutta. Tämän diplomityön tarkoituksena on esitellä Ecodesign direktiiviä ja selvittää sen puitteissa annettujen asetusten vaikutusta Suomessa. Työssä tutkitaan hehkulamppujen maahantuonnin kieltävän asetuksen vaikutuksia kotitalouksiin, ympäristöön ja sähkömarkkinoihin. Lisaksi työssä on tutkittu sähkömoottoreita koskevan asetuksen vaikutuksia Suomen teollisuudessa. Lopuksi työssä arvioidaan Suomen ilmasto ja energiapolitiikan tavoitteiden ja velvoitteiden tuomien toimenpiteiden vaikutuksia. Työssä esitetään esimerkkitarkasteluja siitä, millaisia saastoja sähkönkulutukseen voitaisiin saavuttaa eri tuoteryhmissä direktiivin pohjalta annetuilla asetuksilla. Tarkasteluun valitut tuoteryhmät olivat kotitalouksien valaistus ja sähkömoottorit.

Läntisen Pien-Saimaan vesistön alueella on ilmennyt voimakasta sinileväkukintaa vuosina 2006 - 2009. Yksi tehokas keino vähentää sinilevien määrää ja parantaa vedenlaatua, onravinnepitoisuuksien alentaminen virtausohjauksen avulla. Tästä on 70 vuoden kokemus Pien- Saimaan itäosissa, joissa Vehkataipaleen pumppaamon virta on pitänyt vedenlaadun hyvänä huolimatta vesialuetta raskaasti rasittavasta puunjalostusteollisuudesta. Diplomityössä selvitetään mahdollisuuksia toteuttaa virtauksenohjausta myös läntisen Pien-Saimaan puolella, jolloin tavoitteena on vedenlaadun paraneminen. Vedenlaadun parantamista edellyttää myös Euroopan unionin vesipuitedirektiivi. Selvityksessä tarkasteltiin virtauksenohjauksen eri toteutusvaihtoehtoja ja arvioitiin näiden vaikutuksia eri alueiden vedenlaatuun. Tämän lisäksi kartoitettiin ja arvioitiin eri vaihtoehdoista aiheutuvia riskejä. Näiden tietojen pohjalta päädyttiin suositeltaviin virtauksenohjauksen toteutusvaihtoehtoihin, joita ovat Kolhonlahti – Kolinlahti välillä toteutettu pumppaus ja mahdollisen Kutilan kanavan rakentamisen yhteydessä Kopinsalmen pumppaamo. Kolhonlahti – Kolinlahti sijaitsee Pien-Saimaan koillisosassa lähellä Rehulaa. Muista tarkastelluista kohteista saatiin yhdistelemällä suositeltavaksi vaihtoehdoksi myös Vehkataipaleen pumppaamon virran kasvattaminen yhdistettynä Kirjamoinsalmen tai Kopinsalmen pumppaamoon. Tämän lisäksi eri vaihtoehdoille laadittiin alustava kustannustarkastelu. Selvityksessä käytettyjä menetelmiä ja tuloksia voidaan soveltaa myös muihin vastaavan tyyppisiin vesistöjen kunnostushankkeisiin. Työssä on lisäksi koottu yhteen yleistietoja Pien-Saimaasta ja sen tunnetuista virtauksista.

The purpose of this study was to analyze how different stakeholders, such as the European Central Bank, the European Commission, the European Central Securities Depositories Association, the Bank of International Settlements and the International Monetary Fund, have influenced the European financial integration in the area of securities clearing and settlement since the introduction of the single currency. The results show that the contribution differs from stakeholder to another and can take the form of standards and recommendations, legislation, research and publications, risk analysis etc. The Eurosystem has been particularly active in this area by proving and planning central bank services, such as TARGET2, CCMB2 and T2S. Along the way the development has and continues to face challenges that need to be solved by European authorities. Coordination is a key factor for the future as we have seen during the recent financial turmoil.

In my PhD dissertation, I have examined a group of people of Scandinavian origin received by Ospizio dei Convertendi. This group has been hitherto largely unknown to historical research. The Ospizio was an institute founded by the Oratorian Congregation in Rome in 1673 to provide religious instruction and material aid to both recent and aspirant converts to Roman Catholicism. My research traces the profile of converts and a typology of motives, examining different factors which influenced the conversion process. I show that the key factors were often of a social rather than a religious nature. Moreover, I have analyzed the hospice in the context of Counter-Reformation charity as well. In terms of numbers, the Scandinavians formed a somewhat marginal yet not insignificant group within the Roman hospice. Out of a total of 2203 guests received between 1673 and 1706, 4.6 % were Scandinavians: 74 Swedes (including Finland and Livonia) and 27 Danes (including Norway). They came from a rigorously Protestant region which reacted to Catholicism with severe legislative measures. Converts to Catholicism risked confiscation of their goods, expulsion or even capital punishment. Since both Sweden and Denmark were practically impenetrable to Catholicism at the time and clandestine missionary attempts often failed before they had even properly started, the Roman Catholic Church shifted its interest towards Northerners arriving in Rome, a preferred destination for young noblemen, artists and migrant craftsmen. The material related to Ospizio dei Convertendi, conserved in the Vatican archives, is a scarcely known yet unusually rich source, not only for the religious history of our continent, but also for social history and the study of migration in early modern Europe. It contains a wealth of information about members of the subordinate classes, of their travels and lives in Europe. The profile delineated in these documents is of individuals who had a wide range of different professions and different aspirations. These documents encompass a vast social spectrum that was highly mobile on a continent which by that time had become pluriconfessional. Therefore, these migrants faced the complex religious reality in their everyday life. The principal corpus of my research consists of two types of manuscript sources created for administrative and in a way also for apologetic purposes of the Roman Catholic Church. My starting point is the Primo registro generale of Ospizio dei Convertendi. This is a volume in which the following information about each guest was registered: name, nationality, city of origin, age, sex, profession, confession professed before converting, date of arrival, departure, abjuration and baptism. Typically, the convert was male, originating from Stockholm or Copenhagen, from 21 to 30 years of age. The biggest occupational groups in descending order were soldiers, noblemen, craftsmen and sailors. Thus the data reflects a multiform reality of interurban and long distance migration, ideals regarding the education of young noblemen and gentry as well as the need of European armies to hire foreign mercenaries in their various campaigns. Against this background the almost total absence of women is hardly surprising: there is only one woman in the material I have studied. The second main source, Nota degl’ospiti ricevuti e spese fatte per essi, sheds more light on the choices of the converts, their motivations and their lives outside Scandinavia before reaching Rome. This narrative material permits an analysis which completes but also goes far beyond the columns of the Institute’s general register. This material consists of reports written by Catholic priests based on an interview conducted upon each guest’s arrival. The material frequently includes information on what the converts would do following their departure from the Institute as well. These sources have a specific narrative form and contain short biographies, list reasons for converting and information about the journey from the North to the Mediterranean - a journey which in many cases took several years. Moreover, they show that certain unorthodox practices such as calling on the saints and pleading for help from them were not uncommon in the Protestant popular religion. The recording of information on conversions from Protestantism to Catholicism reflects both religious and social interest on the part of the receiving institute. The information obtained was used for the purposes of religious teaching, for finding adequate ways of inserting the convert into Italian society so that he could earn a living, and to find effective methods to convert others with a similar cultural and geographical background. The stories recorded were based on interviews with the newly-arrived, information obtained from a travel companion or fellow countrymen, or from written documents the aspirant converts carried with them. These sources illustrate, although sometimes in rather simplified ways, the circumstances and motivations which were relevant to the choice of changing one’s confession. In addition, I have examined petitions addressed to the hospice and other Roman authorities in order to get financial aid. These petitions were written by Italian scrittori, and they contain certain conventions and topoi of presenting the conversion with the purpose of improving the chances of obtaining financial aid. It is through these filters, which may seem initially almost invisible, that the remote voice of the converts reaches us. The results of the analysis are particularly interesting because they disagree with some of the principal conclusions of previous work on the subject. First, earlier research has focused almost exclusively on the conversions of noblemen, and has argued, second, that the Queen Christina of Sweden was the driving force behind their change of confession. The sources examined for this dissertation present a profile of long-distance migrants, many of them members of the subordinate classes, who were looking for ways to make their living in Europe. These people had in many cases left their country of origin several years earlier and not for religious reasons, so, crucially, we are not dealing with confessional migration in these cases. Rather, conversion was a complex process, intricately tied up with strategies of survival, integration and upward social mobility. At the same time, while these components are significant on their own right, they do not necessarily point to the absence of motivations of a more clearly religious nature.
