Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This image, acquired by one of the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellites on 30 May 2021, shows a cloudless view of the Archipelago Sea, or Saaristomeri, in the Baltic Sea. It is located in south-west Finland and is home to the most complex archipelago in the world. It features tens of thousands of small islands and reefs, hundreds of coastal lagoons and narrow inlets that provide a unique and diverse environment for wildlife. The greatest threat to the environment is the eutrophication caused mainly by agriculture and fish farming. Since 2014, in order to improve the state of water quality and biodiversity in the area, the European Commission has been implementing actions to improve the environmental conditions of the Baltic Sea through the EU Strategy for the Baltic Sea Region (EUSBSR).
