Northern Environmental Education Development NEED Transnational Workshop Geo-Education in Protected Areas Vatnajökull National Park, October 20. - 24. 2008
Lakeland Finland Geological material Jari Nenonen, Geological Survey of Finland NEED-project wp-2 meeting, Iceland 20.-24.10.2008
Why GTK is involved in NEED - need of popularized geological material - need of geological educational material - need of pedagogical knowledge - need to spread geological information - national and international co-opertion and change of knowledge and experiments - aim is to get good georeferenced popularized material to people, teachers and pupils in different educational levels
Saimaan ja Pielisen järvialueen maisema on 3 100-1 800 miljoonaa vuotta sitten syntyneen kallioperän ja viimeisen 12 000 vuoden aikana syntyneen maaperän yhdistelmä. Näistä rakentuu vaihteleva maastomuotojen mosaiikki, joka tarjoaa ainutlaatuisia ympäristöjä monimuotoisille elollisen luonnon kokonaisuuksille. The scenery of Lakeland Finland is combination of anicent bedrock and quaternary deposits.
We have also something..est, the oldest bedrock in EU!!
